Original Size: approximately 10" x 15" This is a piece I did as a sample cover for Heavy Metal Illustrated. Their magazine focuses on more 'adult'-leaning Fantasy & Science Fiction stories. The concept I had in mind for this work is an elf babe just outside a castle-city, dressing for her journey. Whether the soldiers in the background are returning from battle, leaving the castle or just 'peeping Tom's' is left up to the viewer. Hope you like it...

Stunning rendering of this fascinating and very bold elf. I love sci/fi and fantasy and am impressed with your great technique and creative imagination. I put you on my art watch so I can see more of your wonderful journeys. There are alot of windows in the castle. I think I can see somone peering out despite the fact that it is heavlly guarded. I think most of the soldiers request to be inside the castle to enjoy the "scenary."
