The Mage was a leader of a very powerfull cult of magicians. They had a terrible war against human society in a post apocylapse world and lost terribly. Their Leader (pictured here) was mortally wounded. Using forbidden Necromantic Magics they threw away his remaining humanity and turned him into a Lich. To be revived someday to wreak vengance upon his enemies and rule again. Over a hundred years in a tomb has of course made what was left of his sanity, leave, with no forwarding address. Painted in Oils on Canvas board.

Really good, atmospheric picture! Actually I think he looks sort of like a nice guy, even though he's undead. He looks like he is greeting you to his palace. those fog effects at his feet rule too.

I have to say, that is the best looking "yellowed-with-age" skull I have ever seen that wasn't in real life.

I particularly like the background tones, all the daaaark red-purple and orangey lighting. It gives such a warm stifling creepy catamcomb ambience (thinks of the song 'Wargate' from the UnReal [GT Interactive] soundtrack). I like his costume (can I have one??)
