Description
when i was doing this piece, i was remembering an old painting of a young man before an altar doing the vigil before being knighted...then i got to thinking about ethical choices and temptation... that as "idealistic" as this view is of
good and evil....evil seldom looks ugly when we have that choice to make....
another dragon-related pic from the archives.

a very great image
The old saying "Ugly as sin" is a nonsequiter....if sin was really ugly we'd all be saints.....temptation is always around and it's usually fairly attractive if not down right beautiful If I rememeber correctly Lucifer was the fairest of God's angels before he fell.......... nice work
Fantastic scene!
Very Nice!!!
Outstanding scene, excellent!
Very nice, fantastic composition and render!!
great atmosphere and a good idea
Not just before he fell but also after.... What makes him ugly is when you see whats inside, or if you see.
Even Lancelot had some major flaws. Cheers Steelrazer.
That is some wicked cool dragon snot! One question though.which is the temptation, the Serpent,or the Church?
Cool dragon and scene!!!
