Description Prince Benedict from the Chronicles of Amber by Roger Zelazny - for my friend Shu-kun.

Chronicles are one of the best fantasy novels I've ever read. They are just splendid!

And Benedict is my favourite character - he is really wise and reliable man.

Yeah, Benedict really is a strong character, I like him very much, although Brand and Corwin are my favorite I'm glad to see more and more people drawing fanart of this !

Oh, Brand and Corwin are right my next favourites! xD
I hope I'll draw all of the Amber royal family once - don't know when, maybe when I'll get more skillfull, but one day for sure!

Benedict is my favorite prince too!! Your picture is absolutely amazing, it looks a lot like I imagined him while reading. You have perfectly captured that vibe of quiet intensity and strength he had. Thank you for this beautiful artwork.
I would love to see your depictions of some other characters (Corwin, Random, Merlin maybe?) Only if you want to draw them, of course. You are right, there is not enough fan art on this book.

The Chronicles of Amber are incredibly underrated. It's definitely one of the best fantasy book series out there

*I'm terribly sorry for such a late reply!*
Thank you very much for your kind words, I'm happy to hear our vision of him coincide!
While reading the book, I was deeply impressed by the idea of Amber deck of cards - and I'm planning to draw them all once. Though, I don't know when will I do this - I think, my skill isn't high enough to fulfill all my ideas... But once I'll definitely draw them!
/sorry for my english!/

I LOVE this picture! In all my searching, this is the ONLY image that resembles Lord Benedict as I picture him in my head. It's not exactly the same, but no-one else has even come close. I love it. The expression, the angular face, the indifferent eyes. Beautiful, apathetic, strong. THANK YOU! Now if only you'd draw the other Princes and Princesses of Amber. ^.^

Thank you! I'm glad to meet Amber's fan!
It's a pity, that there are so few of us and so few of fanart... But by the best of my humble abilities i will try to fix it - I'm planning to draw another Oberon's children too ^___^ May be not in the nearest future, but one day I'll draw them!
sorry for my english ^^'
