I prefer one. it has nice positive and negative shapes. and I like the contrast in tones.
4 is nice too for being more softer with the lights.

but 2 and 3. I like how you broke up the stair case. it's not a straight diagonal stair case.

I feel as well like 1 is more balanced, i just might go with it. But I'll take some time to decide exactly what i want of it.
Thank you so much for your insight!

1 seems to be popular choice here ahaha
Gonna take some time to flesh some ideas for it a bit more and then decide
Thank you for your insight!

Thank you for the insight! i feel like i'm leaning towards no3 as the time passes :smiley:
could be cool if i could somehow manage both atmospheres, but alas, that will have to come later ahah

little something of something in the work
i dont feel comfortable sharing the whole thing, but i kinda dig this part for now :smile:

name suggestions very much appreciated!! I am so bad at this TT_TT

Woah! It looks great! I loooove the mood.

Woman holding a skull next to the temple at night... :laughing:

More seriously, is there something that you wanted to convey with this piece or something in particular that inspired you? You could always use that as a starting point for the title.

ahah that sounds just about what i was going to put as a title
well i wanted the covey some mysterious sense of death, therefore death moth as a pattern, a gold melting skull and a hairstyle that roughly resembles the shape of the moth, and also the eyes that are like nightlight, luring ppl in

but it seems i picked a name already, another artist helped me in the mean time, it was so simple
''Curse of the Moth'' xD

It turned out pretty mysterious :smiley:
lovely choice of colours
my name suggestions will be "Death Teller" or "Keeper Of Eternal rest"

Hey your work is looking awesome, I really like your painting style with the loose brushstrokes. Have you ever thought about trying something different? Like a more cartoony style? Not that I don*t like what you are currently doing, but I would be interested of what that would look like in your hands!

And again, awesome stuff!

Oh gee, thank you for the kind words! Honestly, that sounds like a fun challenge. It might be interesting. What a lovely idea, will probably give it a try soon 😉🔜

here's to another sketch :cocktail:

also a finished piece, Gilded Guardian
started this one a century ago, finally went back to it and finished it

Hey, I really like the mood of this painting, can I take it as a model for my next one? I mean the one of the sorceress holding the skull.
