Description
It really has been a long time, isn't it?Well in exchange of it, I'll bring to you our favourite bakemono: the Bayonet Priest, Alexander Anderson.
I really have to thank for let me paint her magnificent artwork. By the way, you can't miss the original one here: [link]
About my work itself, I have painted it carefully selecting the colours. I was very afraid to ruin it, but in the end I like the results. Still, I don't know what would be the opinion of the fanart owner: I'll be waiting you comment anubis!
I have to give thanks to Hans Zimmer too, his soundtrack of Batman Begins (the themes "Antrozous" and "Molossus" exactly) really helped me to choose the right base colours.
I try a new shading style based on chiaroscuro technique, and the result is that this particular work looks a lot more aggressive and sinister than my previous colourings.
I may be adding some new details in the future, but that's not sure.
I really would like you to tell me what you think, it has been a long exile; so I will be pleased if you criticize this.
Lot of thanks to everyone, especially the ones who still are pushing me to continue in this great and noble community (well, at least some of the members are like that
My best wishes

Si, la respuesta a tu pregunta esta ahi Tambien, si queres podes buscar el link y comparar con el original, que tambien esta en la descripcion.
Pero si, basicamente lo pinte de la blancura a esto.
Me alegro que te halla gustado, estuve mucho tiempo meditando los colores y el metodo que iba a usar para entintar y sombrear. Despues de mucho probar, salio esto, y me encanto. Esta inspirado en la obra de Rembrandt: para las sombras y la luz solo use negro y blanco, todo extremo fue en esta coloracion (si lo comparas con las anteriores). Por eso es como un claroscuro incipiente
Gracias por comentar!

Lot of thanks Bergard!
The style was born, since its conception, bapticed by the contrast and greatly inspired by Rembrandt.
Is a more brutal technique than the older one, having another effect on the beholder: it seems that the work is living, at least partially, even though one surely knows that is unreal.
This is a duality that I think I'll continue in the near future.
My best regards!
