Well it's been a long time but I want to get back into the habit of posting here again. I was motivated by Dhabih's return. So here's my latest pile. This one is kinda inspired by Whelan/LOTR/Atlantis/Living by the ocean.

C&C welcome. Hope ya like.

Your picture is very good, but very odd too.
First, we see the top of the knight, what is the part what the ruder, but it's a bit hided by the cloud, so it makes it calmer.

Your knight is in the ground, we can see an other one far away, and we can think that they're sort of lighthouse or other thing like that, but it would be a little strange.

I love it for the oddity!

Very nice! I love the composition, and the monumental style you've captured here. Four stars!

JeP - Thanks much. It is a bit strange

Angelic Remix - Thank you very much!

Awetopsy - Hehe I certainly hop so. Thank ya. My star wars comic is still going.. I just have been without computer/internet for a while moving from Colorado to California. I wanted to spend time with people out there before I went instead of sitting in front of the machine. I'm up to page 6 on my website.. Page 7 coming soon with any luck.

TMP - LOL

elam - Thank ya

JasonN - Thank you. Hopefully the phoenix will rise from the ashes

cptoonz - Hehe thank you. Those waves were a lot of fun. Probably the most fun part of the painting.

I admire the birds - really like them.
They are a interesting part of the image.

Very Good

Malachi - lol thank ya sailor

Max Kullich - Yeah before the birds the image was screaming for something up top, plus it gives the sentinel more scale. Thanks!

Looking really great flex. My favorite of the golem entries.
Btw, how's things going in papaya ?

sensoryoverload - Thank you!

Joachim - Hey man thanks. I haven't started work just yet.. I'll be going in on the 16th but it looks like it's going to be a real treat. Apparently my art director used to work with you and Micke in Norway, it's a small world after all
