Heh, this picture is funny, but well done. And after all, just because you beat up demons in the name of God that doesn't stop you from having fun doing it!

Still Athena, many would actually find you close-minded for saying that religions are man-made, and not the opposite. Just thought it was worth pointing out.

I like this picture, especially the drapery and the facial expression. But - where are his wings connected to his back?

All in all... Is a very good drawing... Masterpiece if I was to say... But, 1. The Fact remain is that Humans tend to draw Angels a lot more Human-like which they aren't... 2. You didn't necessarily have to put in the uhhh.. Leaf, there. You could've just taken out the whole bottom part by covering it with his cape.... Although I do understand that you were trying to achieve that Michealangelos' David statue look... and 3. Uhhh, the guy has this really creepy grin on his face like he enjoys what he does.... That's more of a Lucifer type of Grin. Anyway, Like I said - All in All... It is a Great Drawing -.

if angels are supposed to be so beautiful and perfect ... wouldn't he have a bigger leaf.
great piece, grin, leaf, and all.
CURSE YOU BLASPHEMES OF THE ARTISTIC RELIGION AND YOUR SACRILEGE OF BEING OFFENDED

I have a 2 year old son named Michael and have been looking for art like this for 4 months for a tattoo (for myself, not my son). Everything I have found has been so renaissance and girly looking. I even had an artist draw one for me, and it didn't turn out as strong and commanding as this one. I think it would be better with Michael's armored skirt (palladium?). However, BRAVO!

Beautifully done. It's rare to find a well-drawn warrior angel. Not many people do the Big Guy justice. I've got a respectful working relationship with Archangel Michael, and I think you've done a delicious job.

Kudos!

maybe u got this remaec before... but since he’s an archangel...why does he have genital organs? couse i believe that’s the leaf’s purpose..
besides that, the grin is kind of evil..
but beautifully drawn..
