When I was asked to draw the bad guy for a «Dungeons & Dragons» RPG, I noticed something: bad guys usually look the same: tall, long black hair, not very pretty, usually scared. So I thought: Why not draw a pretty elf-looking bad guy for a change?

Hmmmmmm, i don't see much evillness in him, but then maybe his prettiness overpowers it! Puuurrrrrr!

Hmm.. well, usually, the bad guys I see are all rather attractive. ^-^ And not usually so scared - but more... arrogant and overconfident (which is usually their downfall). But anyway.. I don't so much see elf in him, as his face appears somewhat rugged and worn, as well as very angular or boxy, which are usually human traits. .. But, this is fantasy! It's all open to interpretation. Anyway.. once again, you are a master of your art - beautifully rendered, excellent balance... exquisite detail. 12

Now, he looks more like an evil guy to me then the tall, lean black-haired guys. *g* Besides that, the picture is great.

Reminds me of wolverine, you know the mutant from x-men with the steel claws and rugged face, but thats cool.
