- Arielous -

I have gotten permission from the author to start posting some of the works I have been doing for him.

My job has been, and still is, to give a face to his main characters and design the way they look in a graphical medium in stead of written.

They are part of worlds called "Shu'alu" and the books tell their stories.

This third one is of Arielous (Ah-ree-eh-lus) and I will let the image speak for itself. If you want to know more about him, you should read the books when they come out
And that pink dot right there... that's Rosy.

This one was quite the challenge as there were a lot of details to design like the markings on his body (for which I actually painted a separate painting, which I will be uploading when it's finished.) But also the details on the gauntlets, greaves, sword and clothing.
I did have a lot of fun with this though and I have learned a tremendous amount from painting him. That, and he's hot!!!

I have currently finished a couple of paintings and will be posting those in the time to come.
