Abandon all delusions of controlby *Isvoc

Fan Art / Digital Art / Painting & Airbrushing / Games

"What is your purpose here, Arisen? If you sought to live you had naught but run and hide yourself away. But then, tell me, child of man....what does it mean to live in truth? To wage war against the passing days? To pray to the unseen for a few breaths more? To raise grand cities from stone, and spawn new life in turn? Mankind has done this, yes, and more. But is the tapestry you weave truly of your own design?
Their kind is easy to fathom, they go on living from simple fear of death. But not mankind. Some welcome the end with arms outstretched, while others come to face death incarnate, arms in hand. I ask again, what is your purpose here Arisen?
One path to your survival, lies in my defeat. Still my heart, and you stay the coming end. Another path before you is to offer up that which you hold most dear. Abandon all delusions of control.
For the price of a single life, I shall leave this land in peace. As my "vanquisher", the duchy would bow to you. Wealth and power are sweet anodyne for heartache. You'll not gainsay my terms are more than generous. If it matters aught, the man who rules this land now won that honor through just such a bargain.
The decision is yours, Arisen. Now... choose."

Grigori from Dragon's Dogma. Little tribute to one of my favourite dragons from entertainment.
Character belongs to Capcom.

Grigori is probably the most badass dragon I've seen in video games. His presence is so grand, not just because of his size, but because of his personality and delivery. I think you captured that really well in this piece, especially with the lighting. I loved that even though people make of him as the embodiment of evil, he's deeper than that, and isn't actually evil. In fact, the things that he says during his battle kinda hurts my feelings. Speaking of battle, this is definitely, so far, the BEST dragon battle in video games for me. Like holy shit, all the sequences of his battle until you finally come face to face with him in the crater.

Anyway I digress. Great job with this piece. I think it could be nice to have some small elements on the upper left corner, maybe very faint shadows of harpies, but it's also great to have this breathing space. I've went through your gallery a bit and I'm really impressed. Keep up the wonderful work!

Grigori, so amazing!
This is beautiful, I love the ambiance.

This is a fantastic picture! I'm not familiar with the character or the game, but this picture makes me wish that I were. It's moody, ominous and very, very powerful to look at

Thank you! I'm glad it could catch your interest regardless to fact you are not familiar with source

~Finnisterre Feb 8, 2013 Hobbyist Traditional Artist

You're welcome, again

I think that's the sign of a good picture -- you don't need to understand its source to appreciate it, and this is a very good picture!

~Color-City Dec 31, 2012

This is some impressive work right here. And you included all his dialogue I love you stranger!
