Description Icarus had flown too close to the sun and burnt his wings, My other title for this was Lilith as her wings were also destroyed.
Here is my version of a charactor Dante may have envisioned in his discription of Hell, Icarus for his arogance may well
be in Dante's inferno.

I give Permission to display this work in thier Club gallery.

Thanks man, I enhanced the background and forground so it would not look so flat.

Beautiful work my friend!

Poor Icarus. I think he would be in the first circle. Very dull, but not so painful. I know what it is to get too close to the sun, or may be it was just a lamp and I a moth.

My pleasure.

I think it will be a great works, because Dante's epic tale is so wonderful. The 5th circle of Hell should be very intresting.

The texture makes it so vivid and brings it together quite nicely& the sort of collage look really does work! Awesome job, dear!

Thanks very much, most of my works have a Vibrant color theme and I wanted just that, a "low key"
color theme here. Thanks again!

It's good, but I preffer your other stuff... But good... What I really like of this PM is how the feathers get mixed with the skull... That's really interesting

Guitarian In reply to FiruL33T [2006-10-31 19:17:35 +0000 UTC]

Thanks man! My favorite part for some reason is the Thoat, the textures I applied got mixed with the underpainting in a very interesting way.

YEah... Looks more plastic than figurative, as your latest PM's... They looks more figurative... I think this PM would fit perfect in the Giger's Livingroom

Cool! Maybe blend the bird in a twisted way into the other object? Don't know how but it could look interesting! Still nice job!

Thanks for checking it out, I've had this as a "work in progress" off and on for months. Thanks for the suggestion, that would look very interesting indeed.
