Description
Yet another for a Halloween themed challenge.
My idea was taken from Dante's Inferno, where the ninth level of hell which is reserved for those worst betrayers. The ninth level is the farthest from God's eye, which makes it not subjugated to the fires of Lucifer's fury and hatred, but colder than anything imaginable. Farthest from hope, farthest from escape, the cold tainted God's once chosen warrior not only in the ways of the mind and behavior, but his skin color as well.
It was an idea. ;)

you got to love this song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mod9ob_SdJE
I like the skulls and the idea of lucifers skin being blue because of the cold but he's too much of a "pretty boy", should of left the hair off, given him some horns, some ICE FOR VIENS - LOL
Actually...Lucifer was supposedly the "Beautiful One', one that out-shined nearly every other Angel within the Heavens. It was that idea I went with, rather than the horned, goat-legged stylized and rather stereotypical imagry. ;)
That outfit is stunning. Like the draped effect on the top. Awesome hair. Perm or natural??
Gotta disagree about the "pretty boy" thang. Lucifer was the most beautiful of the angels before his fall, and the earliest known depiction of the figure in Western art is of a blue angel, so I reckon Dar has got it right. Nice to see him looking almost serene. AJ x
Very good character and outfit.
Excellent work!
Outstanding work! Excellent!
...and a damned good idea (no pun intended) ;) Yes, the 'Morning Star', another nickname of Lucifer if I recall correctly, would suggest to me that this entity/being was extremely attractive, not the depiction of ugliness that many stories implement. You did an amazing job here, my friend, excellent work!
aetnkhergoksej lfewfs fnaejjeosjf es....Sorry, that was me face-planting on my keyboard because HE'S SO BEAUTIFUL! And the attention to skin color, which makes sense, was quite clever. <3
excellent work
Simply Kick A$$!!!!!
awsome!
Fantastic!
Yes, this is how I picture God's most beautiful angel. I do not know all that much about the levels of hell, I guess i will find out soon enough....sad smile. Song? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAGUUrgmBkQ
