Description
Another mission, the powers have called me awayAnother time to carry the colors again
My motivation, an oath I've sworn to defend
To win the honor of coming back home again
No explanation will matter after we begin
Unlock the dark destroyer that's buried within
My true vocation and now my unfortunate friend
You will discover a war you're unable to win
I'll have you know
That I've become
Indestructible
Determination that is incorruptible
From the other side, a terror to behold
Annihilation will be unavoidable
Every broken enemy will know
That their opponent had to be invincible
Take a last look around while you're alive
I'm an indestructible master of war!
Disturbed - Indestructible: verse 1 and chorus
This is my entry for the club's Music Inspires us All Contest [link]
This contest has a very cool theme, and contestants were given 7 bands to choose from. We were to pick a song from one of these bands and illustrate the inspiration that followed. I chose Indestructible, by Disturbed, and this dude appeared in my head. Mojo was kind enough to help me transfer him to paper.
So this is Venn Daemon, a mercenary Captain who plys his bloody trade up and down Faerun's sword coast. I think the song describes his mentality fairly accurately.
This is almost entirely pen and ink, but I posted as mixed media because the quasi-background was added in post-scan edit. And if anyone is interested in coloring this piece, I have a linework only version that you can use; just let me know.

This is an exceptional piece of work my friend! Very nice pose, and flow of design elements, crosshatching is one of my favorite ways by which to go about shading as well!

Dude! Don't tell anyone, but I dig me some hatching. If I had the time I'd do it way more. I'm pleased that the design works, because I put a little more planning into this one than usual.

Good job once again! Pose is slightly exaggerated, as seems to have become your wont lately, but hey, it's fantasy, so exaggeration is mandatory

I've been having a little fun with exaggeration, no doubt. Might settle down with it a bit for the next one. But thanks man, I appreciate it.
