SciFi and Fantasy Art: Necromancer

The necromancer is an enigma by nature. His art, by most people's reckoning, is evil. Perhaps it is the morbid curiosity of what lies beyond that energizes such studies in the dark realms of magic. Then again, maybe the inherent human darkness has simply overwhelmed the good of the person's soul. I think I'll post a colorized version as well... the black and white seems to bear a certain impact with this one for some reason.

Oh wow Joel...this pic is amazing! I just love the way he blends into whatever he's conjuring.....This pic really represents the feelings toward necromancy well. I'd say steer clear of the colored version...the black and white is perfect.

ooh, this is fun.. I like this portrayal of necromancy, and the stark contrast of the black and white is all you need--don't worry about the colored one. <grins> Also, the hands really caught my attention--I like the otherworldly affect there.

mwahahaha....I like this one! i like the way he has that devilish grin, (the goatee is a nice touch for that!) and i like the way there are stretched, "dead" faces behind him...and how his hands are distinctly skeleton...and i like your lil description...a trip into the psyche, very nice! i adore the way the robe and the spirits "flow"....a very thought provoking piece!

Mannnn... this is perfect, the mixture of intoxicating power and the subversion that it brings... the result of working with the dead as allies.... you express it here. Amazing.

Fantastic. Absolutly amazing, the black and white would have been better anyway (*Saw the reply up above*)....The only bad thing is that the lines should have been darker, maybe us a darker pencil, or a thicker one.....oh well, good job....if it's alright with you, and please email me an answer, i think i might like to use this for a profile pic for one of my characters on msn....

*drools* He's sexy... Evil guys always seem to be. I don't know, maybe it's just me. Anyway, very, -very- nice. I -love- it. Nice shading. I'm gonna print it and put it up on my wall. Hehe. ^_^ *scampers off to see what else there is*

Very nice... one thing to make it better. If you we're to redraw this one you should add an undead thing in the foreground being risen. It would real complete the picture and the unbalance toward the front would complement the shading (so my teacher would scowled me for that unbalance is supposed to be bad but in the case I think it would work). as a whole its a great pic and colouring it would be quite a challenge. I hope your up to it!
