Description
Templars: were among the most famous of the Western Christian military orders. The organization existed for approximately two centuries in the Middle Ages. It was founded in the aftermath of the First Crusade to ensure the safety of the many European Christians who made the pilgrimage to Jerusalem after its conquest.The Templars' success was tied closely to the Crusades. The abrupt disappearance of a major part of the European infrastructure gave rise to speculation and legends, which have kept the "Templar" name alive until the present.

It was quite simple to create yet it took some time. First of all i cut the model. then I cut off his head. then combine some nice details from about 5 photos of varied armors. then I pasted skull, liquified hand, created hair frm some kind of damaged material. and in the end I erased some parts of the knight to make a mist effect. After that I added about 5-7 textures with different opacity. Final touch with splatter and cross, and thats all i think

interesting, but the left hand doesn't amtch the right hand. Logically, even in a fictional sense, it simply does not add up.

I've abandoned logic this time.

hes also got a skull for a face..

the skull for a face actually can work logically assuming he's undead or a demon.

The Templars are the reason people think Friday the 13th is bad luck.

Your works are really good.
Do you know Dave Mckean? You have a similar technique.
Can you respond me to a question?--> What did you use to do your illustrations?
P.D: Seriously... you are very good.

Thank you. Yes I know that artist. However I think this one should've reminded you more of Siro Anton's photos

This is emanating darkness! It's wonderful! I especially like his ominous stretched hand with those long long fingernails.
It looks amazing.

Amazingly crafted together, and the use of only gray and red works really well.
Exellent job!
