Description Edit: Since I originally submitted this piece, I've given Dagon a couple of design tweaks and since this bugs bugged me for lack of the aforementioned tweaks, I figured it was time to implement them into this art. So now Dagon has his hair and neck bandana!

Sorry I failed to submit any new art before now, but remember that external ear infection I mentioned having a few months ago? Yes? No? Well, that external ear infection tried to make a comeback and it made me feel like shit, but cold compresses and Ibuprofen kept it at bay and now it seems to be gone for the most part. My hearing hasn't fully returned to my left ear just yet, but at least there' no pain and swelling. Plus I feel better now so here's some new art.

On the left we have Dexter Winterheart, a warlock who previously appeared in "Storytime" albeit a bit more "humanoid" (okay, maybe a lot more humanoid) than he is depicted here. Yes there is a reason he looks so different between the two pictures and it's not just me redesigning character on a whim I promise.

On the right we have Dagon Gravewyrm, a new character as well as a grave robber, occultist, and demo-man who's family history lies in the occult. People who follow me on Instagram may have seen the the custom doll work-in-progress of him a few months back. I'm almost finished with the doll custom save for some much needed accessories sch asΒ  his arm bands, goggles, and that big-ass book he carries on his back.

I hope I conveyed that these two can't really stand one another, because they really can't stand one another despite having a few common interests. Dexter just doesn't like that "Four-Armed Asshole" who infiltrated the Dead Stars and seems to have taken an interest in [DATA EXPUNGED].

As for Dagon, he's decided that he can't really stand Dexter either. That "Cuckhold" Dexter is a bit too overly optimistic as times and perhaps a little too mentally unstable. But they have no choice but to tolerate one another if the Dead Stars are going to find [DATA EXPUNGED] and save the world...and probably the Universe (and Multiverse) as well.

I needed to break up the clambake into which my gallery has turned so have a couple of unconvetional pretty dudes. I need to draw Ryan and Noctem again.

I wouldn't like to get on the wrong side of them as they sure look intimidating. Very incredible work, the details are so visual and outstanding

Looks like they are ready for any mission that comes their way!

Thank you. They probably are ready for their current mission: Trying not to kill one another before completing whatever mission they've been assigned first.

Thank you. Do you have any black metal recommendations?

Ahh, sorry! When I wrote that comment, I meant "PowerΒ Metal" rather than Black.

My personal favorites are the Orden Ogan, Iron Savior and Dragon Land.Β 

Iron Savior, despite slow BPM for my taste, won my heart over one single song ("Hall of Heroes").

I'm digging Dexter's new look. Talk about getting a make over.
I also like Dagon's eyes. Overall, another good art piece from you.

Sorry for not having seen this earlier btw.
