Description
This piece is now the cover-art of Zippered Flesh 1, an anthology of body modifications gone bad. nebu.deviantart.com/art/Zipperβ¦It is available at Amazon.com
There are many legends involving the Cyclops, most notably Homers Odessey. But there is another that tells how the Cyclops were offered forsight in exchange for one of thier eyes. (they supposedly had 2 eyes in the beginning) The Cyclops agreed but found that they had been tricked, for the only foresight they gained was in seeing thier own deaths.
My attempt with this wp was to capture the moment of horror when the Cyclops saw his own death. Hope it worked. =]

faithfully for his master's return? the pulling back of the bow??? the story of the tree

Your explanation makes this piece even more amazing. I can see shock and terror in his face and also disappointment because he now knows he was tricked and fooled.

Very nice Nebu. Kind of reminds me of the wonderful textures that David Ho uses and he is one of my favorites.

Krul was the movie I remembering hearing that Cyclops story from, such a classic movie. I dunno if I personally like this. The skill/tallent/effort is their, but it's alittle too eerie to be looking at me when I am on my desktop. Still, it's a great piece of work regardless of how I feel about it. Keep up the good work.
