Description Something a little more formal. Wanted to really push the atmosphere here as well as the storytelling.

Nice dude. Looks great. Give the guy kneeling a little rim light on his head like you did with his shoulders. If the focus of the interaction is between the king and him then he needs to not disappear into the background. Composition looks great otherwise. Love the play between cool and warm colors.Β

Your coloring is amazing! the gold against the dark design of the dude on the right really makes an interesting composition Β

Thanks so much. I was really going for a good dichotomy between the two, I'm glad it's noticeable!

Really awesome painting, it inspired me to write this poem - just-a-nomad.deviantart.com/ar…

That was phenomenal. I'm legitimately floored my work could inspire someone in this fashion and the poem itself is incredible. Thank you so much.

Glad you liked it! I must have got lucky, I'll keep an eye out for your future stuff because I love paintings that have some real storytelling in them.

Thanks! One of my goals is to try to hint at a larger narrative in my illustrations, so I'm glad it came through!
