Description
Sort of hastily done, I realize...i've been on a Therion binge for a day or so and felt moved to a throw something together based on a few musical pieces.Whatever being is getting called forth in the rite of summoning being performed here, I'm very willing to bet that its purpose is less than benevolent....
Pencil, inks, watercolor, ink wash, and digital color on PS.

wohaw! love this piece of art since it's based on one of Therion's songs .. by the way, from which song did you gain inspiration to do something awesome like that? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i think the song(s) most listened to on this piece were "evocation of vovin", "call of dagon" and "the khlysti evangelist" but i have a decent rotation going all the time 
thanks very much!

welcomes ^^
one about "rise of sodom and gomorrah" will also be freaking awesome
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i don't know a great deal about the musical group or even much behind the music....but i do know that it's some powerfully motivating and inspiring music that's both really heavy and also melodic. "Evocation of Vovin", "Arrow From the Sun", "Typhon" and "Eye of Shiva" come to mind immediately as some great tracks, although i could recommend quite a few more.
but yeah...as is often the case with me, i'm a bit ignorant of the finer details, just in love with the sound

My absolute favorites are "Rise of sodom and gammorra"(I like the music ,not the theme),"Ginnungapp","The invinceble","Deggial,Via Nocturna"(1&2) and "Kali yuga"(1&2)
I'm actually in early developement of a project with them. Or them with me. Afreind of mine hooked us up some years ago and I was told that one of my stories inspired one of their tracks.
I was in complete and utter awe.

holy cow! 
but how cool is that, working in conjunction with them! kudos to you, it's really an honor to be named as an inspiration for something that you can admire!
i'd be in awe too.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yup!
I'll eventually put some of those pics up when I can sift through all of it and figure out what to show.
Every time I listen to them, the epic feel of a lot of their songs inspires my stories.
I've got a couple images on my page that were a product of this...
...check out "Sword grave" and "Strydent" just to name a few.
I meant to say earlier, I'm diggin yer style. It's very reflective of an animation background.
Your images feel as if they are in full motion on the page.
Really cool stuff!

That's awesome, I really like how the demon is GIGANTIC, really powerfull summoner there! *grin*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, a summon like that has got to cost at LEAST the blood of 100 innocents and your own soul, rent asunder by hellwinds upon consummation of the demon's release. i imagine one would have to have an INCREDIBLY misguided zeal against one's enemies to unleash that kind of infernal power. i want one
thanks! this one didn't turn out as well as i'd have liked, but the feeling is there.
your signature intrigues me....i wouldn't consider myself a part of the furry population, but i kinda know what that's about. But what is "yiff" or "yiffing"? the word sounds like hacking a hairball or something, which leads my brain to think all kindsa weird thoughts....
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yiff is a stupid word really, I think they made that up after some type of animal sound or whatever
it's simply furry porn
And oh yeah, loved ya description hehehe what can't be done with the blood of 100 innocents? *grin*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
ah, i see. i kinda thought the definition was something along those lines. i think an hour or two of Animal Planet pretty much takes care of any desire for me to see furred critters gittin it awn, but to each his own
the blood of innocents is really universal. it's a good sealant for weatherproofing the deck, makes a decent food additive (mainly for color), can conjure unholy beasts out of the abyss, is a MUST in your generic type of incantation, and really adds a nice spackle effect to the drywall. Makes a sorry lubricant for gears and joint hinges, though; better to use pus (which, thankfully, can also be found on the innocent).
...i'm a dork

normally i'd be kind of guarded about the seams showing in my work, even if i rush pieces i like to add a bit of presentation....but sometimes to get an idea across you gotta blast through something even if the dents show at the end...
thanks very much!

Veeery nicely done here, amazing stuff; serious.
An impressive piece from you, as always. Always a pleasure to see new stuff from ya', well done here. Now we just need to add some dramatic orchestra track to go with the picture, 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i figure, a screaming death-metal ensemble with a holy choir doing backup would be about perfect 
"What is this new devilry...?"
I'm glad you dig this piece, always hit-or-miss when i lash together crap inspired from my own geeky brain

Wow thats really awesome i love the use of colors!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thanks very much! i'll never ever be the one to say my use of color is even adequate, since my sense of color can only fail and occasionally be accidentally okay, but every once in a while stuff turns out nice
thanks again!
