Description
Originally a tattoo piece for a friend, I wanted to create a crest of sorts that was honorable. I wanted to portray that even an angel has to weigh decisions to events that sometimes there is no right decision.Related content

I can see why they stole this, but fuck. Those bastards. I hope you don't mind the swearing, I'm just so pissed off at them.
Don't stop posting your art please! Instead, put a big, mean watermark allover the thing. I know it'll annoy the viewer and maybe destroy some of the art, but it will at least protect your awesome work.
Love, a great fan.

I think there is always a perfect decision, that is for pure good, even if you don't understand why, there are always options of goodness.

Not everything is black and white my friend, and sometimes decisions fall into a sort of grey area.

Oops i forgot to comment on this amazing piece haha. You achieved here what i never seem to be able to and that is near perfect symmetry. I cant get anything symmetrical to save my life. Excellent work man.

Fantastic image. How long did you work on this? Pencil work alone and with computer...

ShawnCoss In reply to issamonster [2007-11-29 18:52:21 +0000 UTC]
It took me roughly 2 hours to come up with the angel design, 3 hours for coloring the angel itself in photoshop, and less than an hour for the vector background I designed in illustrator.

lol, Damn... 2 hours to draw the angel? Man I suck. It takes me 3-6 hours to come up with and draw anything. I need to work on that...
Good work.

This is absolutely gorgeous. The wings are incredible and the pose is fantastic. It's obvious you put a lot of work into this, it all works together just right.
Instant fave.

Tell me about it, when Kris told me he got me balls deep with comments I had no idea he was being literal. I have carpul tunnel from replying to so many people's generous compliments.

lol that's hilarious. At least you reply to each and every comment... or so. But I don't think people really expect that, considering how many you'll be getting. carpel tunnel syndrome via message reply is one up from getting it via jerking it, so be proud. haha

I think that's how I have been able to reply to everyone, from all my training in jerking it. Ha

I agree with Grimmbones, it should be on a T-Shirt or sumthin. I live what you do here, if it weren't for Kris Wilson, i never would have seen this masterpiece!
KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

That's pretty damn awesome. It looks like it'd be some sort of video game cover or character art. Reminds me of something out of Silent Hill...
