I notice the latin all over the picture, and I have been tryingto descypt it but I am having trouble, something about full victory and no death or somthing. I don't know, great work though.

:-) Johan Aronson replies: "Most of it is jibberis latin, the few words I know and just some made up ones. The words along the borders of the banner are titles from Hollenthon songs though 2"

Those knights look so impenitrable. Those goblins(assuming that they're goblins) really don't stand a chance. A last stand usually has fallen comrads on they ground, but I can't compain seeing as how I can't draw half as good as you.(I feel small).

12 Johan Aronson replies: "That's why there are no fallen comrades, the goblins dont stand a chance! 12"

I have to agree with ya guys its excellent detail....uuhhh can you give me some shading tips...PLLLEEASE

2 Johan Aronson replies: "I find 0.5 mm 2B leads work well. Smaller and harder leads are hard to make dark shades with, and thicker leads make the picture look a bit grainy. You can also use special smudge-pens made by paper to make the shading softer.
Oh, and I'm happy you liked the drawing. 2"

I really like the heavily armored look. And the sizes of the swords and shields are just fine.

Wow, awsome. Notice the purity seals on the sheild. Is this War Hammer inspired at all?

:-) Johan Aronson replies: "Thanks, and yes, it's quite a bit inspired by Warhammer."

Hmmm, dnt you think the warriors are like giants compared to the goblins?? Their swords equal the size of goblin....
anyways nice work

12 Johan Aronson replies: "  They are indeed, and that's why this wont be their last stand. And thanks!"

Very Neat, what did you color with?

12 Johan Aronson replies: "I didn't, it's monochrome. 12 But I drew it with a mechanical pencil."

Where is the highest knight standing on?
It seems to me, as if he performed some artistic performence 12

But that just makes him look even more powerful! Excellent drawn!

:-) Johan Aronson replies: "Haha yea, it doesn’t really make sense. Seems like the knights are more interested in striking dramatic poses and looking cool for the picture than anything else. 1"
