really nice work...unique and different from those common high-detailed digital artworks. this look much more like a painting than those high-detailed kinda painting that can only be done digitally

Very very nice! You pulled off these ruins very well, and along with the coloring, that set a very shadowy and cool mood to it!
In my head though, it's not like he's been there ever before, nor does he want to be there. The way he's looking at me, feels like I'm looking through the eyes of the person who brought him there. Some crazy in-love girl with a taste for very weird romantic spots, a criminal on the run that has him for a hostage, some historian who needed an assistant to investigate some god-forsaken place... All sorts of weird possibilities!

Those are all cool ideas! The character himself is someone I know quite well - in fact, probably the oldest character I've ever written, and someone I almost never draw. I've drawn him maybe three times in the ten years or so he's existed! I don't know his face too well, that's the problem... and he's never wanted to be pinned down to a structure, I guess.
It's very him to not want to be there, of course. He's a grumpy, grumpy sod. Spends a great deal of his life doing things he'd prefer not to be doing. :3 And he's really not very good at looking at the big picture, either, so I can think of several people who would have brought him here for a talk, or something, and received a grumpy reception. XD

Hehehe, I figured something of the sort... That's why, to me, the funniest possibility would be that of the criminal taking him hostage. I picture this big guy with his big knife hearing all about how he's an completely incompetent kidnapper out of his hostage, and being unable to argue with any of it. Poor kidnapper!
Anyways, he seems to be a cool character, although he might be a bit hard to materialize. Heck, these grumpy characters are as difficult to work with as actual grumpy people! Hehehe!

Hahaha! That's such a wonderful idea! XD Makes me laugh! I might have to use that! :3

I'm quite liking the colors and the ruined stuff in here... turned out nicely, I think!

I love old churches. Even in death, they still seem to retain some semblance of majesty.

Me too. :3 They make me think of England... having really old buildings everywhere, crammed into little spaces and on odd-shaped streets is one of the things I miss.

This is actully really cool. I love your style. Even if you didn't mean to, I have this odd story in my head now about what happened to the area.

Odd to go back even though it wasn't that long. But when I look at the picture and also at the man I see two faces. The one that is standing in front of us, and the one that is hideing the real reason to why he's there.
Either it could be a church where a horrible accedent happened. A refuge where many died from a war from long ago or something like that.
I'm not quite sure anymore on the percice thoughts that I was thinking when I first looked at the picture, but I'm sure after staring at it again and then closing my eyes another story would come to me.

WWII? Yeah, I see that! XD Interesting you should mention that, it gives me some ideas! (I can't think why I've never thought of that before!)
