Chaoseater
This month I'm posting another throwback just like last month, but this one is the prequel to last months posting of Ni Dragons. Chaoseater is a sword that was carried by War, one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse in the game Darksiders. I'm still a very big fan of the game and when I was preparing to convert Ni Dragons over to color I realized that I need to do a little practice first and I wanted to test out a new medium so here's what I came up with:
Originally it started as just a sketch of the sword itself, but then I added the skull and just ended up going all in with a full scene design. This is a mix of copic inks for the sword and acrylic paints for the background and foreground. Chaoseater kind of fits this point right now as I started a new position and things feel a little Chaotic with the change in schedules of going from working shifts to straight daylight and trying to get used to it all, but after almost three weeks I'm starting to cut through the chaos to turn it all to my advantage. Revisiting this piece to get it posted though has made me eager to go back and visit the Darksiders universe, I've been thinking of doing a tribute piece to Wars older brother Death from Darksiders 2, but we'll see what happens in the future.
No preivew of the next pieces this time, have a few that are in the works and nearing completion and one that I'm eager to share shortly that is one of my best works. I'm also working on a couple more fan arts and a couple originals and another portrait on the horizon.
Happy Halloween!
