#king of the dead

[s-u-w-i]

Seven more! Hehehe 🕷🕸 Probably the last few from LOTR (if I'm not tempted to draw Ghân-buri-Ghân, I may be) but because I'm continuing this project till Easter I'll draw few guys from Hobbit and Silmarillion in the days left. Also, I’ve decided I'll be selling the originals after I finish all the drawings. But if there is any character you'd like to have in particular you can start reserving them now. By messaging me here or on s.u.w.i@email.cz :^)

Shelob, Wormtongue and King of the Dead are left from this bunch!

The size of the drawings is A6 and prices from 50 to 80USD (shipping included). Also as last year with the dog drawings this year too - all the earnings will be sent to charities. Thank you! 🌿

Rest of the characters are here and here and here and here!

There are plenty for both of us! May the best dwarf win!

The exchange between Aragorn and the King of the Dead in The Return of the King is so meaningful to me. When the King of the Dead says, "The dead do not suffer the living to pass," Aragorn counters with, "You will suffer me." Aragorn, who has seen so much death, who struggles under the weight of it. Who knows, as a mortal being, that he is no true master of death. Yet who still stands up to the King of the Dead in this pivotal moment and says, I can handle you. Fight for me. Let death work in my favor, if only for one battle. Incredible.

The Life and Suffering of King Firan

Happy Ace Week, fellow Darkonians!

↓The vertical version, and my pretentious explanation:

Alright, first, I drew inspiration from Danse Macabre to depict Azalin's life on Oerth. The devils represent the Dark Powers. From right to left, it depicts 15-year-old Firan leaving Knurl with confusion, uncertainty and hope for the future, “Firan Zal'Honan has come home,” Azal'Lan accepting the offer of the Dark Powers after losing Irik, and being carried away by the fog after becoming a lich. Also, that Firan is going from right to left in this art is meant to convey a nostalgic sorrow and the fading of hope. I think it is how Azalin looks back on his past life very occasionally.

I rarely explain my arts, as I prefer it remains open for interpretation, but manuscript is a symbolic art form that I like vm. Still, drawing this way limits what I may render (I cannot shade and go into details like I usually do). Anyway I am not going to explain the implications of marginalia. You should go reading King of the Dead and visit Knurl for ace week.

From the mind of @artemisnightingale216 here's my take of how the firsts moments of the chapter 5 from Fantasies Unwind, a Hazbin Hotel Au turned an Hades and Persephone retold.

On this moment, Charlotte, who has to get over a brainwashing, just rejected Alastor, and he's taking as well as he can (he's emptying booze glass after another so yeah... and it's lucky he's aware of the brainwashing and or else this could have gone worse).

I basically mixed the style of the Hotel and Alastor's personal room in order to design the room, since he's a more classy version Alastor, so no swamp related stuff.

Contribution for Day 3 of Darksiders Week - the supporting cast. In this case, the King of the Dead. I think it's been even longer since I last drew/colored something then since I wrote something, but anyway... started the "Kings" card set last time and figured I'd continue where I left off. Hoping to finish King of Hearts in time for day 7.
