st michael slaying the devil 👀

also, very informative article!

you really hit it out of the park!! the dark part is unsettling and imo just the right amount of visually convoluted to compliment the narrative

I'll be thinking about his book for a while!! I think if he could read he would like it too

It isn't, but thank you for introducing me to some beautiful blankets oooh!

Here are a few crops to show all the textures. This was painted with @maxulichney.bsky.social's oil brush pack for Procreate.

Six thumbnails and six references! Alfred Kowalski's wolves were the main source of inspiration for this piece (as well as Remington's wolf on the top-left there), and for color/rocks/trees I totally stole from Carl Eduard Blechen's painting (top-right).

Thanks!! I ended up modeling everything in 3d and faking it a lil bit, the reflections were driving me crazy!

Thanks cyra :)
