Description
This sort of came out of the left field."Time Travel" is the theme for the contest held over at .
As soon as I read the contest description, this idea just popped in my head and stuck and demanded to be realized.
So here's my take on it: Hell-bent on revenge upon all the wrongs done onto him in the past, Erik instead happens upon his younger self. In a sobering moment he realizes that...

This is moving. It really is. I actually welled up when I looked at it. It has such great detail in it and takes us back on everything Erik was and what he became. Simply beautiful.

Nice work, but for a moment when I saw those bandages I thought kid Erik looked like Death the Kid.

The symbolism is so perfect. This is amazing. I love the expression of his old self while looking at his young self. He looks so lost, as if he were about to cry... It made me want to hug him...

Poor Erik, but if Erik did time travel, he would go and help himself in a way if he could. Amazing job! Love it!

Both Erik's look great. This is a stunning piece.
