SciFi and Fantasy Art: Kneeling angel - sketch

I can't believe no one else has gotten here first!! *Does her first ever "First Comment" dance* I have to say that I like this original sketch a lot better than the other version you have up here. It's a lot less.... heavy I guess. The wings look so much softer. He looks kind of weary to me. Has he got a story?

The wrinkles on his pant legs are really neat, they look just right

^__^, looks even cooler than the finished version.

Eww....A story! I love creating stories! May I?
I can't tell if his eyes are open or closed so I'll do one for them being open and another for being closed.
Open: As he kneeled next to the body of his lost love, he swore that he would get his vengeance on the one who had could him and his love so much pain.
Closed: A deep sigh escaped his hefty chest as he cam upon a fork in the road. Unable to use his fling abilities for this mission he knelt down as he concentrated on with road he should take....Right?.....Or left?....

Anyways! This is a great pic! I like your shading and your detail in his clothes and the fact that his wings just fade out. Keep up the good work.
