SciFi and Fantasy Art: Andromeda, pious knight

Okay, okay, the debate is long since dead, but this picture rocks. I believe that scantly clad women in battle have as just as much of a chance as someone in full armor...take my character kardeen for instance she fights naked in one battle, because her opponenet is quicker than her and unless she didn't have anything weighing her down, she had a good possibility of losing. so what if she gets a few scratches or bruises, that stuff heals...
but anyway, Richard, you kick arse. Your style is very nice and you have definately improved, you make me want to update ... lol I really need to.I wanted to go see that chick's gallery and dang... it no longer exists...oh well. lol sorry, no sleep...had to find something to amuse myself. Anyway, your awesome keep it up! and you've got a great sense of humor too.

hey... if she's good enough what does she need armor for?
cool pic... and as far as i'm concerned the bikini covers whats most important to ME when going into battle... MAHA... great shading!

I think she's cute =) I really like the idea about her chain weapon thing.. it does remind me of spawn now that someone mentioned it hehe.. and dont worry about that whole "she needs to be wearing more" thing ppl post... I guess some just dont understand that this is FANTASY

I think it's wonderful! Okay, you have to admit, a few of the proportions are off (a FEW, okay? Not ALL) but it is still a very skillfully done piece. About that stupid debate thing....I don't know if anyone's said this already, but if she would get killed really easy or disembowled or whatever, wouldn't she already have? Or is this the first time she's worn something other than full-body armor? And it IS fantasy, or am I ranting about something impertinent? I doubt it. Sorry to be bringing the debate up but I started talking about it to my friend and she told me to shut up and tell you all. Sorry.

The piece is magnificent and I adore the chains...as well as the concept of living/semi-living metal/chains. Much talent, bravo.

It kinda makes me laugh when people go on about her wearing hardly any armor into battle and saying that she won't win. Hello? Has anyone seen the femme angels in the Spawn comics? They wear hardly anything and they still kick ass.

Hey man I E-mailed Elfwood earlier. I just stumbled upon this sit in an attempt to find amatuer anime pics. I like your style because, personaly, I draw the same stuff. Just anime style. You might be interested in looking at some of them. But.....well I don't have that many at the current time....but I got enough to show off my style. I love creating fantasy characters. But uhh..... I'm just wonderin...is this site owned by all you drawers or is it a site owned by one person leting you all post your stuff on it. P.S. How'd you get your pics colored like that? I can't color mine for crap. Do you use computer or pencil?

Andromeda, the chained princess...top notch work

Hello hon. Let me just say, I have looked through your gallery, and I love your work. It is excellent. Don't put yourself down, especially over these people(and I know you won't!). By the way- I took a look in Caroline's gallery because of all of the people mentioning it, and it was okay(just my opinion!), but not as good as your art. I see nothing wrong with what you do, it is all very beautiful. You have great talent- I think you will really go somewhere with it. Keep it up!

Very talented!!!

Who needs armor when you've got a big, pointy chain?
