conqueror

Axil62 (Jan 13, 2007)

We come from the land of the ice and snow,
from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods
Will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying:
Valhalla, I am coming!
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
from the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
How soft your fields so green,
Can whisper tales of gore,
Of how we calmed the tides of war.
We are your overlords.
On we sweep with threshing oar,
Our only goal will be the western shore.
So now youd better stop and rebuild all your ruins,
For peace and trust can win the day
Despite of all your losing.

I think you've always known that this particular "look" in a guy is one that I've always been attracted to, but I'm not sure you know that in the Society for Creative Anachronism I have a Norse persona. A lot of people don't realize that the Vikings were actually very clean people. They were also very good farmers and traders as well as excellent artisans. The information now available out there about them is fascinating as hell. I love the pic, Dan. Makes me think of a Norsemen just returning from a long voyage...he's tired, and dirty and happy to be home. Yep, I'd do him.

I might have a beer with the guy, but I wouldn't do him.

Personally I don't think I've improved much, I've just invented new ways to fuck up, lol.
This was my 13th drawing out of 221 so far.

:D

And done. Really pleased with the glass, at least. No ref but old picture. Wish the whole thing were smoother and sharper, maybe I'll get more patience later, but that's only if I have time as well, lol. This was a great contest idea, regardless. :D

PS (Jan 13, 2007)

Yeah, that glass and blood look really nice. Good improvment

davincipoppalag (Jan 13, 2007)

What Cindy said.. this is by far, better. Nice entry

Nice structure, Klox ;) :-D.

You know, I wonder if the "lighting" comments turn up so frequently because that's the thing that jumps out most strongly at people - maybe because it is something that lots of people have trouble getting to look right? Just a thought - I'm only a tyro dabbler on this site and in art in general, so that might be way off base :P~. Anyway, I love your stuff!

sweet_insanity (Jan 13, 2007)

i always like your use of color, and how you can see the "strokes" of the picture, it seems to flow and carries great texture.
that and the interesting twisted features XD

davincipoppalag (Jan 13, 2007)

My turn.. I have to say some of us don't have much knowledge of art, and its terminology..so we say we like this or that about a particular picture just because that's all we know how to say. I like this too, I like the exaggerated features, and yes.. I like the light too.. You rock , Klox...ok I'm done too

marcello (Jan 14, 2007)

On the other hand klox, one could comment that lighting is the only thing that makes any picture good. if there were no light, the image would be blank. a lot of our understanding of shape, form, and texture is based on how light reflects off things. of course, if one were to make an image represent form, shape and texture without light (ie, just abstracting the physical feeling somehow), that would be a whole other animal (arguably modern/abstract art attempts to do this, though maybe not with the same intent).

I think people like the fact that you tend to use more than one light source or have very little ambient light, giving your pictures a more dramatic feeling. Something that I think more people should try doing (self included).
