Halo Hunter

This is a piece for the next big set that Magic is releasing called Zendikar. He's a demon that specializes in hunting angels (grim, I know). I had a ton of fun with this set because I got to really jump into some dark content, it was a good break from knights in gold armor.

15 x 20 in.

    Very cool. Nice balance between the glowing/bright angel trophies and he dull darkness of the demon. It really works.

    it looks like you traced of photo of a demon, next time try and veer from the photo reference of your live model. Geez man I though you were a pro.....well I guess I'll see this thing in spectrum when it gets in

    Man- I thought I left a comment on this one. I think it went something like "this is awesome I really love it " -- - ya know :)
    But it was genuine!

    I really like how you handled that "hot" light on his chest.
