SciFi and Fantasy Art: Death

This is my rendition of Death. I am tired of always seeing death as a cloaked figure with a skull face, or just a cloaked figure so I drew Death as I perceive her. My favorite part, the hand! (I used my face as a model and a .5 mechanical pencil)

The second un-skeleton Death I've seen. The other was Neil Gaiman's and she was also a young woman. You guys rule.

I LOVE THE HAND!!!! Weee... okay, I'm done. That is a cool idea 'cos everyone has this idea that Death is this ugly hooded guy, I like how you make Death to be a pretty un-cloaked woman.

cool. Not to mention it follows all the myths and legends about her. In all the old story's death is a women some said she had an unearthly beauty and others said she was repulsive. I persanly would rather see the beauty. Yet their is a story were she had a god son. She gave him some magic herbs that would stop death as long as she was at the foot of the bed. But, eventually his love was to die an early death and went agenst his god mothers wishes. in turn she gave him a choose to stay with her or leave her for a time he chose to stay and in doing so died with his bried and the place were the light of all people burn their lives where snuffed out.

Fantastic!!!!!!! Love it. Though, my impression of death is a laughing Jackal. All the same, it is Lovley! (Impowering!)
