I was inspired by a number of Elfwood artists to do this... my own interpretation of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Famine was the easiest.. I just wanted to contrast this gleaming armor with his emaciated body... one of my friends suggested surrounding him with rotten, maggot-infested meat...

Great picture. Do you think you can draw War, Pestalence, and Plague?

Well, well. Not bad - great picture - but I kinda imagine Famine being quite different. Looks like War to me...anyway, I'm planning to do Four Horsemen myself too. Although...the Four Horsemen are really Angels, you know. And where are the Scales?

The other three Horsemen are done-- unfortunately, the scanner won't scan them to less than 150K... **sigh**

Its a great picture, but i don't think that the armor radiates something that sais "famine", and it doesn't look like a skinny lil feller like that can stand decently with that on...still pretty cool though, thumbs up!

:-) Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "Thanks! As for the 'skinny' part, I wanted him to look gaunt, as if he were the victim of famine. Apparently, he looks the part TOO well."

You know, I was going to attempt the Four Horsemen at one point as well. The bulky armor on the emaciated figure certainly speaks to the strength of the Horseman.

:-) Chris M. Rubenstahl replies: "That's how I wanted it to look, and apparently, it worked! Thanks, Brian... "
