SciFi and Fantasy Art: Arcariel

Arcariel

Oh ... did I already mention that Arcariel is my oldest and favourite character? Well, this picture took weeks ... especially the hair, since I'm really crazy about trying to draw it as realistic as possible. I don't think it turned out to bad (except the hair), but I won't colour it (not manually at least, perhaps Photoshop or something) and I hesitate to add a background.

So, as I said, it is my angel character Arcariel again. He's not wearing his wings at this time, spending time on earth - to which I invented his home as a kind of parallel universe, definitely not as heaven or something like this. My angels are not holy. In fact, Arcariel murdered his gods and although he had his reasons, I don't think, anyone who knows him would consider him as holy. Well. Rude? Yes. Arrogant? ... Maybe. Murderer? Without a doubt. Impertinent? Definitely.
But not holy.
Despite this, I wonder who he is looking at. Someone he has got much sympathy for, that's for sure. Maybe even love.

Done with ... ummm, pencils, 2H, HB, 2B, 3B, 6B, 9B and aquarell pencil.
