Description

Hi,
Here's a recent image I did for ChOW activity at conceptart.org, "death's horse". I guess everyone was doing the death grim and all I really didn't have a choice but to look for something slightly off the path. The idea is the horns carry a name tag, kinda like your soul as it comes and collects it.. or something along that line.
Painted in Photoshop.
cheers,
Min

Stunning piece! I love everything about it, great composition perfect choice of colours great use of highlights and shadows and the background really flatters the subject and creates a nice eye flow. I think the small dangling pieces from the horns are a bit distracting, only because I can't really figure out their meaning, they're just "there". Hard to explain, very minor detail though because overall this is amazing!

Amazing with a capital 'A', nice concept and beautifully rendered. I'm gonna have to agree with Joe about the horn things, maybe they could be worked abit more, I dunno.

Ahhh, saw this over on conceptart.org and was waiting for it to pop up here Stunning piece mate, i'm a big fan of the ChoW thread. I'm still not great with painting colour over a b&w base, so i admire your painterly turnout. I think the only crit i have is i may have cropped it a little bit tighter but that is a nit pick.

Really nice man, love your work +10

cool picture - the only strange thing are the horns of the creature - but the rest looks really fine to me!!!

ahh thanks everyone :)
yeah I've had mixed feedbacks on the horns.. some people love it and some people find it distracting.. and those things hanging are the name tags, dead peoples' names... it was a to soften the overall look of the horn and break the strong shape as well.. thanks for the comments..

and for painting steps if anyone is interested..
here linked to a post in CA.

This is TOO COOL *adding to fav artwork*
I love the shading and the concept. It's really scary. My lil brother on 7 saw this and thought it was horrible. I agree with him. :p

I love the style. It's almost like Justin Sweets's style. I do feel that the technique you used to paint the hors don't quite fit in with the style of the rest, but it's just my personal opinion.

In any case, it's well painted! Thumbs up! (thumbup)
