I'm Pretty Sure Micheal is taller than Sanya or at least closer to the same height. Hes discribed as being well over of Six feet tall

Nicely done! All of Dresden Files' characters! I really embarassed to ask, but is Sanya really afro-american? It isn't depicted directly, or is it?Β

No, he's Afro-Russian. He talks at length about how being black in such a predominantly whit country and the alienation that resulted was the main reason he got drawn into the Denarians.

Yours are the most complete Dresden Files series drawings.

Huh...only three nails? so the feet were nailed together then? Or was the last one put into the holy lance?

He was nailed to a cross, so yeah his feet were nailed together.

with one nail. Gotcha.

When you would draw the Denarians? I love the concept of fallen angels parasites.

I really love these, but I feel like I have to point out that the Carpenter family is African American.

Thanks, but I'm pretty sure that the Carpenters have been described multiple times as being white

lest we forget that Charity can take care of herself too, or forget just how dangerous she can really be...

I would have to agree that they are white. I see this as the young Michael early year (probably when he first rescued Charity)

I like your work, particularly Shiro's ready to strike posture. Β Have you posted any of these to the 'I made an Art' section of jim butchers site Β I know a lot of fans of the series would love to see them.

Thanks! I haven't, didn't know there was such a section on the site, I think I will post there, thanks for the tip!

Awesome pic of this group. I feel sorry for any demon to come near them. Well, unless it's trying to abandon evil.

Yay Sanya! He's one of my favorite characters in the series--you gotta love a holy warrior who does the job not because of any religious mandate but because it's the right thing to do.

Charity looks a little skinny--I'm picturing how big she'd be without the chainmail, and it doesn't quite line up with the butch mother of seven described in Proven Guilty. Also, shouldn't her hair be tied back? It's going to get in the way...

Well, Dresden described her as having a model's physique, so I imagined her 'buffness' as being more toned rather than bulky. And yes, I know she tied her hair in that scene, I just drew it let down so I could better convey her 'game face'

As I recall, the line went something like "She was wearing a sports bra, and could have modeled it if she chose." He then goes on to describe all the muscle in her arms and shoulders, which we find out she acquired because she's Michael's blacksmith and sparring partner.

CHARITY IS FUCKIN' PERFECT! CAPTURED HER BADASSERY TO A TEE!
OH MY GOD YOU CAN ART SO FREAKING WELL I LOVE YOU!

I thank you for your kind words

It's good to finally see the good guys well done!

I really like this, though to be honest Charity bugs me a tiny, tiny bit. I think she looks awesome but I always thought of her as a bit... frumpier, even in her battle gear -Β though I could blame her being pregnant in Grave Peril for that one. Still, this whole thing is bad ass, keep up the good work

Thanks! Well I always pictured her as sorta a subdued beauty, since Butcher describes her as such using lines like 'she could have modeled if she wanted to' plus numerous comments about how Molly inherited her looks from her.

I love your take on everyone so far.Β I think we'll never have a 'perfect' imagining of each character but each is recognizable, and thats the biggest part!

Thanks! Yeah, I try to stay as close to the books' descriptions for the most part.

Charity is so boss. Look at her, with all those tough guys. XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep. Hell, she'll probably tougher than them

In some ways, yes...

Hmm. Isn't Sanya Russian in the books?
π: 0 β©: 1
Yep. A black Russian.

OMG it's true. Well, at least it's unusual idea.

You did a good job with the Knights of the Cross, I like Sanya especially.

Four of my favourite characters in the whole series.

Woah! You're awesome! Finally a complete (ish, in the future?) series of DF characters. I'm guessing some of the Fae are going next. Please tell me you're going to do some Council people too!
Oh and Charity looks absolutely badass here, the end of PG made me like her a whole lot more.

Thanks a lot!

YAAAAY! There is definitely not enough Senior Council fanart (is there any at all?) And since Cold Days pushed Rashid up several places to make him my favourite character, the matter really annoys me.
