This was a (very late) birthday present for my mother, the house's resident Raistlin fan. Those who know the character should be able to figure out what's going on here, and why only the things behind him are alive.
I never want to draw a vulture skeleton ever again. Ever. My brain* demanded, out of the blue, that I throw one in, and I spent the better part of the day playing that leg-bone's-connected-to-the-where-the-hell-does-this-attach-again game. Somewhere out there, an orinthologist is plotting my demise.
He's in black robes, but if you look reeeeally close at his cloak clasp, you can see where I think his allegiance really lies.
*Which I am pretty sure is trying to kill me at this point.
@_@ Good lord this is beautiful - it looks at first glance to be quite simple but then look closer and woah. The skeleton is wonderfully executed...looks fine to me in proportions etc (though I'm no orinthropologist ) I especially love the detail on his staff with the globe and the claw. Gorgeous! Is he one of your own chraracters or from a book or something? Forgive me if you've drawn him before and I've forgotten. I have the memory retention of a gnat. (Though I'm not sure I really know how large memory spans of gnats are...they may be large...hmm....should do research before I state something like that...)
OMG...amazing. Love the way the vulture skeleton came out. I will defend you from rabid ornithologists

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 5 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.

I'm guessing gnats have pretty lousy memory--they never seem to remember that buzzing around my head tends to result in them getting thwacked!
