Revenant

Here's a mostly-personal piece that i finished a little while back.  it's actually a complete digital overpainting/reworking of an acrylic i did a million years ago.  the original was a greyscale illo for Dark Matter (one of the campaign settings for WotC's Alternity system).

i just always liked the concept of the piece, and the concept of Revenants in general.  they have some of the appeal of vampires (undead that retain their personalities from life), but with more of a work-a-day vibe that i find more relatable than vamps.

 Happy Thanksgiving!

    I love this piece Raven! It's very subtle, but has a nice creepy vibe to it that I enjoy.

    Very cool. I like the storytelling aspect of the bullet holes in her and the wall, while she's casually reloading. Great subtle palette, with just a hint of Brom (which is a good thing :).

    This is really awesome, Raven! I love the ligature marks, such a cool touch to it. You and anna have me wanting to do a vertical format piece now ;)
