:Surprise: I simply cannot describe how awesome that is...NICE.WORK. That should go on the homepage, seriously.

Dragnipur looks bloody awesome and so does Vengeance, I love the glint in Rake's eye, the look on Traveller's face... and I can't find anything to criticise about this picture.

That is simply fantastic.

There's utterly nothing amiss with the picture, looks just how I imagined it. Wow.

That's really brilliant.

Btw, editted main title of your post, because the sub-title isn't visible from main page.

This looks awesome, I love the movement in the picture, and the armour and swords are wicked! Nicely done:)



my only critique is that Traveller's skin is too light. He has nutty brown skin, I think, and kinked hair. But that's just nitpicking, really.

Commissioned?! By whom? And more importantly, how much does such a commission cost (already envisioning a Blue Moranth water grenade painting on the wall in the bathroom...)?

Anyways, orgasmic work, as always. I absolutely adore Dragnipur. I would eat it it looks so cool.

Still awesome though :)

That is really cool. Really like all the little details; the symbols on the cloak, the veins on the arms. Great job.

That is freaking awesome. Warning for nitpicking: I thought i remembered reading that Vengance was a really thin blade. Am I right, or am I remembering wrong? Not that it matters for the sake of the picture, I was just curious.

That really is rather good ! I think Grim mentioned skintone and hair.....yeh, but I don't think it matters in this case.

Fantastic piece of work, loads of movement, great detail on the armour and the swords look great especially the quillions(sp) on Dragnipur.

Well done.
Now all the friends that you knew in school they used to be so cool, now they just bore you.
Just look at em' now, already pullin' the plow. So quick to take to grain, like some old mule.

Toll of the Hounds? I thought this was the scene from ... I think Gardens of the Moon? With the demon king? AHHH I have been spoiled!!

...Not really, but, DAMN -- I am so glad I didn't look up what TTH was an acronym for !! SO cool. Love Rake + sword

No you are right, Cutter thinks that Vengeance should be to thin to be able to used by Andaris in the same way as Dragnipur was by Rake.
This however takes nothing away from the sheer awsomecake that is this painting.

I misread the thread title at first and was struggling to remember where in TTH they mentioned a souffle. But this is a much better subject for an excellent image.
Hello, soldiers, look at your mage, now back to me, now back at your mage, now back to me. Sadly, he isn’t me, but if he stopped being an unascended mortal and switched to Sole Spice, he could smell like he’s me. Look down, back up, where are you? You’re in a warren with the High Mage your cadre mage could smell like. What’s in your hand, back at me. I have it, it’s an acorn with two gates to that realm you love. Look again, the acorn is now otataral. Anything is possible when your mage smells like Sole Spice and not a Bole brother. I’m on a quorl.

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.
