Death Colossusby *regourso

Contests / 2011 / RIFT Create a Colossus Contest

_{SWEET LORD IN HEAVENS I ALMOST DIDN'T MAKE IT TO THE DEADLINE. Here's my entry.

I gave it a little thought about what exactly should this guy be in terms of specific form, but I almost immediately decided it'd be a Death Colossus, mostly because I wanted to draw something with skulls and stuff. Eventually while working on it I had the idea of this guy being some sort of walking tomb/graveyard. In retrospect, I would've liked to include more buildings/structures/graves, sadly I am a terrible mess at organizing my time and I had a ton of work this weekend, so I had to make it a lot more simple. I hope the perspective shows the scaling of the creature well, it's something I usually try to take into account when making something so big. Anyway, enough of my rambling, hope you guys like this. :]}

Ask not for whom the bell tolls, it tolls for thee.

Just too epic!!!

Thanks, I appreciate it! Can you believe I've never read that poem before until you quoted it? I found the actual quote out of context to be far more grim than the full poem. A good read, nonetheless. (:

You are very much welcome

So that's where it came from! I just now looked it up too. I just remember hearing the quote out of context a few times too and how sounds like death is just lurking behind you.

Yes, yes it does! The original poem feels much more philosophical in nature.

awesome. very Jeff Miracola-ish. and yes, I think you pulled off the perspective well

Thanks! I've been meaning to re-work this thing because it looks very unfinished, though.
