Description Good and evil -
And their merits -
Men have argued through history,
As well they should;
My philosophy
Any child can see -
"Good is evil -
And therefore
All evil is good."
~"Good'n'Evil", from Jekyll & Hyde: the Musical

Today I just needed some unprompted, out-of-the-blue Malachi shirtless action, hence this VERY quick ridiculousness. Apparently I'm digging this windswept-profile-on-textures look.
As a side note-- considering the looseness of that rope and the, um... lowness of the waistline on those pants, I'm not 100% certain how they're keeping him decent. I blame magic modesty fairies.

Thank you! I'm pretty fond of his hair too, even if he normally wears it differently.

Just realized I've faved several things in your gallery and never commented.
I admire being able to build a rich fantasy world with such interesting characters.

Aw, no worries! I appreciate all the faves too. I'm glad you're enjoying the world and the characters, but I definitely didn't come up with everything all on my own. My fiance and GM ~Arthulin deserves just as much credit for stuff like plot, concepts and creatures. I just draw the pretty people.

Malachi seems to get a lot of love. I'm glad you dig the skin tone, I'm never sure whether I've got him right since ~Arthulin keeps telling me I don't make him dark enough. He can complain when he's drawn Malachi as often as I have. XD

haha, I remember seeing him with the skin a little less dark on previous drawings, but I think it's gooorgeous the way it is on this =o

Thanks! I'm glad you like it. I wasn't even thinking of the song when I drew it, but when I was racking my brain to think of a &%$#@!@ing TITLE, I was switching through my iTunes for inspiration and that came on, so I thought "OKAY TITLE FOUND!"

All mixed up with your gorgeous style ;3; and gah this is pure sexyness!

Malachi belongs to ~Arthulin , right?

temiel In reply to AmaDenchArt [2010-03-08 12:15:09 +0000 UTC]

AAAAH THANK YOU!! I've been drawing him way too often lately, but every now and then I get on a kick with certain characters. :3

Technically he does belong to ~Arthulin conceptually, but I did all the design work for him, so even though he's Alan's character, the drawn version of him is a meld of both of ours.

Do I have to say something about this? DO I HAVE?
DA should seriously think about adding a mature content to comments too, because all the things I'd like to say about this picture are PG 18 rated


buuut, I think I can also stick with telling you how much I love your profiles, how much I envy your ability with male anatomy and how much I worship Malachi that would be quite a clean message I suppose

If I wasn't engaged in both fantasy and real life I'd steal him and run away ppffff....

temiel In reply to SerenaVerdeArt [2010-03-03 15:41:42 +0000 UTC]

Hm, I'd be in support of mature-content comments!! There are definitely plenty of pieces I've seen that I have very little else to say than something totally obscene.

I'm really glad you like this one, thanks so much! I was pretty proud of him. Lately I've really been diggin' the shirtless look.

And Malachi cares not that you're engaged! All the better to corrupt the spoken-for ladies, after all. Oh Malachi, you big bastard.

really? I'm only seeing one area that looks a little off (where the abdominal muscles meet the obliques/hip area) - the rest is quite fine!

Oh, thanks. I always tend to draw that area a little off, to be honest... I'm kind of lazy in that regard BUT I WILL DO BETTER.

The shoulder tat did come out really good too. xD But I agree, the hand over shadows it. xD I couldn't stop staring at that amazing hand.

HEHEHEHE! Yes, Malachi is very much a "tall, dark and handsome" type, if you're willing to put up with sharp teeth and his rampant self-interest. I've really been digging him lately.

Kol: It's the horns, right? Gotta' be the horns.

Not completely. Maybe the red too.
Malachi is no exception. The art is, as always for you, excellent. You have such flow in your figures. They keep the eye moving over ... all ... of them.
Yeah.
He is just stunning.

AW!!! *big eyes* Thank you so much, getting that "flow" you're talking about was a long, hard process for me to learn. I'm really glad you think I'm there.

(For my two cents, I think it's the horns. )

Larissa-Bright [2010-02-25 22:25:48 +0000 UTC]

Considering how loose those trousers are... they are either going to fall down in about half a second... or they are held up by defying gravity magic. My vote's on the latter!

temiel In reply to Larissa-Bright [2010-02-25 23:12:22 +0000 UTC]

One way or another, the boy's got MAGIC PANTS. Personally, I'm not averse to the notion that they might just fall off at any moment.

Good night, his torso is loovly. Yay for fanservice, right? I really kinda love his long black nails but that might just be the goth in me coming out. I don't see why you bother putting clothes on him at all, he seems very fitting like this. It works well for the sorta demon-esque concept he has going on (and y'know, not just because he has a lovely mid-section...although that's a good reason too ).

temiel In reply to TCShelton [2010-02-25 23:30:28 +0000 UTC]

HEHEHE!! Oh man, for some reason that "good NIGHT" made me almost laugh out loud while I was at work. Seriously, I don't know why that brightened my day so much BUT IT DID. Come to think of it, I don't know why he wears clothes either! Oh wait... because he can't just go around buck-ass naked all the time, as much as I'd enjoy that. Seriously though, I bet he goes around half-naked quite a lot. He's got good reason to show that bod OFF.

TCShelton In reply to temiel [2010-02-26 06:53:47 +0000 UTC]

Well, I'm very glad I could brighten your day a bit. You've definitely returned the favor more than once. I think the half-naked look rather suits him though and I'm not just saying that because he has a fantastic bod.

temiel In reply to TCShelton [2010-02-26 12:13:52 +0000 UTC]

No, I see what you mean. It's a good, fitting look for him, definitely. It's fairly notable that at this point, most pictures I've done of him (and other people's, incidentally!) have been in some stage of undress. If there's a shirt, it's usually just there to highlight that nice sliver of chest underneath. Of all my guys, he's definitely the one that's most cooperative when I take his clothes off. (Farael cooperates pretty well sometimes, but that's just because he's dutiful to his creator. )
