Here we have the lovable and terrifying Saetan from the Black Jewels Trilogy. It's been a while since I've done any art for those books, and it has been suggested that I do the three portraits: Saetan, Daemon, and Lucivar.
Well...I've done Saetan. XD I am lazy and/or busy. Yes. Anyway, I used a pic of Ralph Fiennes [link] as a reference. This was done very quickly in a different style than I normally use. I've been working mainly in Black and White to start, just to get the values right, and adding in color later (hence this was an excellent reference! XD). It's something I picked up off of Henning Ludvigson's site: [link] . I haven't quite figured out the coloring yet, but I definitely like this technique.
Character (C) Anne Bishop.
EDIT: Here's a peek at another BJT themed painting I'm working on! [link] It's for the "Fan Art Confession" challenge at pixelbrush.net.
Dude, awesome! Honestly, though, and I don't really know why, but when I read those books...the picture that comes into my head of Saetan is Hugo Weaving... (Elrond in LOTR, Agent Smith in Matrix, V in V for Vindetta) I don't know why....but I guess that's what my mind clicked onto. XDDD That looks awesome, btw!!! ^_^

Haha, I can see that. Hugo Weaving can be just about anyone.
Thanks!

Thank you. I saw that picture and I was like "...hmm, Saetan?"
XD You should! I wanna see it. I kind of miss doing anime sometimes. >_> I should do some more. Or upload that thing I did for a manga contest a few months back.

92% of the teenage population would die if Abercrombie & Fitch or Hollister said it wasn't cool to breathe anymore. Put this in your signature if you're part of the 8% who would be watching and laughing their butts off.

Thanks! I'm slowly spreading the word. I've turned a few people onto those books in the past few years. It would probably help if I was actually willing to loan my books out...no, no, they're too precious.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Please FULL VIEW all these amazing pieces of ART. Visit the artists pages and give them a :+fav and your support. Thank you for taking the time........
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant.

Manchmal ist mein Kopf so voll mit Leere, dass ich hunderte Bogen Papier vollmalen könnte - aber da ist überall schon nix drauf!
