Lost in the Rain
Lost in the Rain by @drummerseve (Wolfling Silverpaws)

I'm sure this woulda been easier with a tablet. :\ This took about a week, aprox. 3-7 hours a day, with the tools Airbrush, Smudge, Dodge and pencil in Photoshop. Inspiration: The marvelous works of Pu-sama, Adele Sessler, and Khaosdog, and of course, my buddy Toren. This was a new coloring technique that I think worked quite well. Truth be told, this is the longest I've spent on a digital piece - I wanted to convey Armageddon's sorrow, and agony, his hatred for his immortality, and unwillingess to die, lest something he'd missed still be out there. His wings scared me... I didnt know how to color them. Once I tackled them, they werent so hard. The sky scared me. Once I tackled it, it wasnt so hard. The rain wasnt quite as hard as I thought it'd be. Over 100 layers were used on this. 50 layers for the rain, about 7 or so for his coat, several for his skin, well over 10 for his hair, manymany for his jewelry, 9 for the sky, 3 for his eye, and well over 10 for his wings. I made it longer than the orignal sketch, to show more stormy sky. I was so happy to find the 'canvas resize'. ^^ I plan to do more of my Armageddon.

Note: Armageddon is not an elf. Not a winged elf. He is an Aeoarie, an immortal beast of my design. For the larger version, go to the following the link(http://www.deviantart.com/view/7055897/).
