SciFi and Fantasy Art: '04: Abasdarhon

Why does everyone keep saying that this is ripped from Star Craft? I've played StarCraft and the Expansion and have every update since 98' not to mention a whole archive of StarCraft art, and this doesn't look like any StarCraft pieces I've seen. Yes, the gold inlays sort of remind me of a Zealots armor, but if you have ever seen a full torso shot of a zealot, they don't have anything on their heads but the occasional circlet. Not to mention the Protoss don’t have hair, just fleshy black psionic tendrils on the backs of their heads.

Anyway! To the artist - Is there a full body image of this somewhere? I’d love to see what the whole character looks like. I like this piece more every time I view it.

this too COOL for starcraft (starcraft sucks man)

cool pic I love

(and starcraft still sucks)

Very good. Very good indeed.

I don`t know what feeling his eyes are supposed to express, but they`re scaring me *shivers*. If that`s how angels look at the souls that go to Heaven, I prefer Hell. Anyway some of my most loved things in this world are to go there anyway - most of your demon chars (esp the sliced-in-two guy *kisses him on the forehead gently*), my favourite music + musicians (some of which are already there) and so on.

The way you did the metal parts is in one of the styles I like most in coloured pics - a bit smudgy, blurred, no heavy shadow, but a very strong highlighting. Of course, with different styles different things go well, but in this particular picture this one ROX THE BOAT! Esp in the hole (?!) in his forehead.

Wow Nice job.
I really like it.
Keep on the good work.

thay should include this angel in the new Evangelion movie.....

You certainly have a talent for mixing the religous and mythical with the cybernetic first micheal then anubis and now this guy. thees pics are so cool.

Abasdarhon is a mid-ranked angel sent to watch Malthus and monitor his activity. He has also been given orders to destroy Malthus if he becomes too dangerous.

Noo, w8, starcraft is fun, and this pic is nice.
