With much help from all you amazing people out there, it is finally finished! Thank you all for your suggestions on the blade's coloring.

(Apologies to those who favorited the incomplete image, please pay attention to this one instead. XD)

A concept work for JonnyBlackmage ( :iconjonnyblackmage: ) and Dreamland Messenger ( :icondreamlandmessenger: ), for their story Pandemonium.

I sketched my idea of their specter (anthropomorphic personification, if you want to get technical) of Death earlier, and had promised to do a cleaner, more understandable version. Thus, this resulted.

Yes, he's very effeminate. Their version of Death struck me as effeminate, and was thereby drawn as such. XD

~~~~~~

Inked with Microns on printer paper. Tried a new technique of accented lines, can you tell?
Scanned (Thank you, Father!), and colored in OpenCanvas.
Don't know how long it took.

That scythe is totally the sexiest scythe I have ever seen.

By reading this, you have just lost THE GAME.
XD Hahahahaha, thanks?
I'm not too sure about the skull, but that was part of the design. Personally, I prefer that Death's scythe has a hanging lantern.

I think the skull is a neat touch. It kind of creates a raven skull effect with the scythe which is strangely creepy. A lattern, though, is just as cool.

Maybe.... ooh you could do a lattern with a skull on it 8D

....


I need sleep.

And so Death is finished! XD Somehow when I see him I think of Hagi from Blood+

So are you gonna tackle Maxwell, Gareth, Sammy, and Persephone next or are you done with Pandemonium for a while?

A life of mystery and adventure awaits in the wild...

Who was it who said that pure genius borders on madness? I think they were right.
Death is a beautiful thing. :lmao: But seriously you did an awesome job on him! :clap: :w00t!: :+favlove:

If you want you can try making different designs to his scythe. :aww: But to be honest, I think I love Death's design the way it is... :happycry:


...get me a crate of tissues...
Hagi is awesome. X3 He's my favorite.

I suppose. =3

"Can a dream not be as real as the world?"
Naaah, I'll keep the lantern thingies for my own interpretation. X3

Thank you.
Anyways, yay for a completed, clear reference.

Nice job! The only thing I notice is the shifting light source depending on where you look at the guy...other than that, it's awesome. =)

Reality is determined. Do so with great digression, for some day reality as perceived may crumble with a great and thunderous crash. When that day arrives, I fear, the world will look to those around it and cry out, having missed its chance to be redeemed
