A second illustration - this is a Reaper for the Cult, one of the warring factions in this world. They have gathered all religions into one; their warriors wear armored theatre masks and cloaks, to show they have transcended merely human emotions and in imitation of the grim figure of personified death. The scythe is the weapon of choice, representing the final judgment that awaits nonbelievers.

Your son sounds cool.
It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

At first I thought that was another from the cartoon.

He's got a great imagination, and he's very good at writing stories.  Heavily influenced by fantasy tropes, of course; just like his dad.  :lol:

My son's stuff has no admixture of the cute in his fantasy.  ;)

Does she pick up the 7-10 split?

Really? You are unfamiliar with bowling? Damn Malthus you are less of a suburban slob than I thought....yes I know you don't technically live in suburbs.

Anyway I am loving your art and it is so cool it is something you get to share with your son.

I'm only a slob in certain ways.  :D

Thanks!

I'm enjoying drawing, both on my own and working on my son's stuff, more than I've enjoyed any hobby in years.

I'm glad at least some folks here like it ...

In the case of the picture above, I'm experimenting a bit with forcing perspective (on her hands) to make a more dramatic pose. This is hard to get right - if you do it wrong, the results look very distorted; if you do it right, the pose looks dramatic without being too obviously a manipulation. 

I think it works here pretty well.
