ABDIEL by thief6 is an incredibly detailed freehand illustration from a man quickly establishing a reputation as one of the more talented artists on deviantART. The eerie glowing of the eyes and the worn look that the artwork has been given really adds a great feel to the piece.

The first thing that caught me off guard was the detail. Definitly had to be the detail that was put into this. I can only imagine how long it would've taken you with work thrown it. There are some parts that it took a while to figure out what they were, i.e. the sword on top of the face that were not his teeth. Overall, the style of this brings it out amongs others, and paired with details and the white/black balance, you have one superb piece. :thumbsup: Congratulations on the Daily Deviation you earned so many years ago.
