SF&F Picture 7 out of 8 by Aaron Stephenson.

SciFi and Fantasy Art: Rafar

I read a book called 'This Present Darkness' it was written by Frank Peretti. It is quite possibly the best exposition of spiritual warfare I've ever seen. Course that require belief in that sort of stuff. Call me a fundamentalist. Excellent read by the way. Anyway, the antagonist in the book is a demonic prince named Rafar. This is what I think he would have looked like.

5 Feb 2002	Kelti	Loading... I read that book! I think you couldn't have done a better job in portraying him. I love his outfit and the shading looks good too.

2 Dec 2003	Mike	Loading... I came across this doing research for my own version of Rafar and Tal (soon to be in 3D). Very well done! Not exactly what I pictured but you got the the gold belt and black hair that the few other works I've seen were lacking. I would have made larger wings and maybe a different skin color, but that's just me. You have made a magnificent piece.
11 Jun 2007	Nathanael	Loading... i love those books, im about halfway (chapter 19 out of 43) through piercing the darkness. but i love the outfit and the way you mad his face look "lion-like" (...his face was lion like in appearence... chapter 6) and the belt is cool too.the wings were especially good. i am currently working on a graphic novel of this novel. so if you could email me some ideas of Tal that would be great.
