Description
For ~IL81WSG
Theme: Axe
super late submission
--

Idea:
Axe > Fire fighter > fire > fire demon > balrog > put out fire with water.

There are many versions of the balrog, I used LOTR's Balrog for reference, it seems LOTR's balrog is originally fantasy artist John Howe's balrog. Hmm, i'm starting to like fantasy art. End up watching LOTR again while doing this, still very awesome.

I finally found the anatomy book i bought useful while painting the firefighter's torso. Hope the water looks alrite for a semi realistic finish.
