Description
He crawls through swamps,alone yet in companionship with thousands of rats.
His legs broken,
his breathe heavy,
his honour vanished.
Vunsvagh is one of my most favourite characters that will appear in teh story of Myre and which will play a very distinctive role. Accompanied by thousands of rats that announce his arrival, he is a banned soul that got thrown into the deep swamps of the very last and dead forest.
Dragging the old branches and sticky mud with him, his burden to dwell in this neverending slough won't come to rest.
He is a great advisor to Myre yet his story has a very deep and sad connection to her.
This was the last big painting I completed in 2011 but I decided to upload it now, with some more changes about the painting. I declare it therefore as my first painting of 2012 as a great, albeit not with the most optimistic picture. ;]
I always wanted to express Vunsvagh's lonliness and sorrow this way.
More is yet to come!
Thanks a lot for looking, and Happy New Year!

"A man in chains. Wrought with anguish, sadness, and desperation.
Still has a heart & soul."
My thought on the picture
Happy New Year.

It took me a moment to really see all of the rats.

Wow this must have taken some time. All those rats. The emotion really comes through too. And he's an adviser type character? I like that, because it seems that most people would stick a creature like this in some sort of antagonistic role. He seems like a very interesting character. Amazing piece~

This one is really just and damn epic. I totally love the way, you did this. The style fits just perfect and creates an epic atmosphere here too. I like the way you did the expression and the damn amazing details. I just LOVE it....great start for the new Year....I am looking forward to see more from you in this year then

Fantastic! Such intricate detail and motion...i didn't even notice all the rats until i looked closer and saw how they blend in with the roots. The tension in the vines twined to his wrists and in his straining chest really illustrate his pain well. I also think the use of color was successful, blending everything together and giving a musty, earthy feel to the picture. My only complaint is that i would liked to have see a hint of a more passionate color in a picture that is so obviously full of passion...even just a touch of red in his gums would have really added a new depth to it all...

I thought some of the branches were supposed to be something attached to him because they looked kind of furry. Really cool though.

I absolutely adore the colors and the expression on his face... what does he symbolize to Myre? Does he represent burdens created by treacherous decisions and actions?.. God I could go on and on about this lol I adore it

You always do incredible work, but you have really outdone yourself this time. This piece is amazing, from the pose to the complexity of the background vines and mud to the incredible placement of light and shadow. An absolutely haunting treasure.

when presented with your work friend, it is an all too common occurence for adjectives to fail me.

Fantastic as all the detail on the character is, what really amazes me is the background. The soft light looks wonderful, and might actually be too cheery for the subject if it wasn't pushed so far back. As it is, there's a nice contrast.
