Description Random Upload of the Month. This piece is now about 8 years old but I still like it so thought I'd add him to my gallery.

Yes, I know Death doesn't traditionally have wings but screw that. I happen to like wings.


All done in Winsor & Newton drawing inks.

The Russian version of The Reaper usually has wings, they work too.

Russia has a cool version of the Reaper, then I think feathered wings would work too, just back when I drew this (longer ago than I care to remember) I was better at membraned wings rather than feather ones

If you want a really good version of the Russian Reaper I suggest you click the link.

He's actually petty scary till.........you'll see. It's still awesome. But hey, anything to for a person who can draw a sweet-kicking Death.

drakhenliche In reply to ghostontheshell [2008-04-04 11:06:25 +0000 UTC]

I think black feathery wings'd work too, but I always go for membranous ones as a preferance.

ghostontheshell In reply to drakhenliche [2008-04-06 10:33:54 +0000 UTC]

me too! ..to me drawing a feathery wings! goes with something that is (good) like an angel! but! if i draw something (dark or evilish) i prefer the membranous wings are the best choice!

the wings let him get around faster.

Perhaps, perhaps not. I suppose it would depend on what you're willing to risk by getting a closer look.

I guess so. And maybe how good you are at chess?

Narilyte In reply to drakhenliche [2008-04-05 00:55:15 +0000 UTC]

Fortunately I rather enjoy Chess. Rarely ever get to play but I do enjoy it.

I suppose if you're gambling something you're not afraid of losing, then essentially you have nothing to lose.

I guess that could be true.

Well if you ever want a game we could always play a game online sometime. There are online gamerooms after all.

Careful - official figures suggest 80% of accidental finger-amputations last year occurred due to scythe petting.

Wings are always a winner

You did an awesome job on thissss 8D Your representation of death is really cool Great work on the colours 8D you shaded all of the black really nicely ^_^ the tones look great the darkest inked parts really gives this pic a comic feel I love it :3 Nice work on his pose as well n_n I just love how you've drawn the bones and the face and the movement you captured in his cloak really does give this pic a creepy feel very cool job!!! 8D

I think this was one of the best things I drew back in '00 - though having him dressed in a full robe means that a multitude of anatomical errors are conveniently avoided!
Thank you
