Wonderful work. I love the poses both the vampire and the corpse hold. The vampire, in particular, looks as if he were yanking his coat away from her grip. The corpse is just wonderfully tossed down on the steps without any care. Brilliant!

It is something to be able to paint a particular picture, or to carve a statue, and so to make a few objects beautiful; but it is far more glorious to carve and paint the very atmosphere and medium through which we look... Henry David Thoreau

Anyone can hate their enemies. Try loving them. That takes strength, and wisdom.

Wait a second...that kinda looks like my aunt's house!
Excellent idea and work, here. I especially love the lifeless body. It is angled and positioned very well.

Not that you need another comment, and not that you need any more critiquing, but three times I have looked at this piece and three times I have been totally amazed. You don't need to be told that is is a great piece, so I'm only going to say that I aspire to create pieces such as this.

Excellent work. Truly deserving of the daily deviation. I love the way you have the light coming from behind and not taking away from any of the front detail with the shading. The glistening blood detail on the steps is truly remarkable. Keep up the excellent work. . .

reminded me of "the phantom of the opera" for some reason, this images is remarkable, the detail in that blood on the stairs is incredible!

I've been watching this progress as a "work in progress" on sijun.com . Steven has made additional revisions since this submission to ice and it's even better than what your see here!
It's a great piece of work.

" Well the sun in the sky burns a whole in my head its been 18 years that i've been undead , I dont know who made me and I dont know why I'm just a creature of the night AND I CANNOT DIE !!" ..... my band has a song called " Dead Roses" its about vampires , the before quote is the first lyrics from the song , this work you have done is truly amazing , it would be great when we release the song as a single to have that be the cover work , its fits just all too perfect !!!!!!!!!

That's truly art. I'm about to finish my second year on art&design and I wish I had your skills because this is a great piece.
I like your use of contrasts. espesially how the warm and cold colors reflects in shadows and glares.
The balance in the picture is great and at the same time it's very dynamical and alot of tension. The main focus is vel positioned in the center of the picture surface.
-Cheers!

I am at loss for words...this is a real masterpiece. The whole aura of the image is sort of ephemeral. Frightening yet beautiful piece.

Very nice. when i first saw the thumb i was reminded of the first diablo ii cinematic where they are walking out of the burning tavern.. Is this all brushwork?
the dead chick looks almost like a 3d model.

truly inspiring work. I look at this and even though I have work to do, I want to stop and go play with bryce and poser and see if i can create something similar. the contrast of the light coming from the doorway and the dark blue deep twilight on the right is very very nice. Everything about this piece is an exceptional study in contrast between light and dark, including the subject matter on a conceptual/metaphysical level.
I'm inspired and taking notes. Thanks for contributing to my education.

Simply awesome. I must note that for whatever reason you decided not to include any nudity in this, as the temptation to do so would be great with me when doing a vampire-like image. I think you should be commended for this since nudity would have been too much and would have taken away from the image overall. Great work indeed.

I always loved the idea of a vampire having a trench coat/cape on. Its classic. Nice job.
