This picture took my breath away for a second or two. Not only the concept itself obligates you to spend your time looking at it, visualizing it, the master skill you prove in this pencil shading leaves one completely helpless but to respect this piece. I find it amasing that you can achieve such soft adn yet well defined forms with the pencil, and I can't forget to mention how technically admirable are the multiple parts of the armour, especially the attachment of the wings, which I tend to stare at for a longer time.
All in all, this piece is brilliant, and to my favorites it goes!

chance are that by now, you've seen the work of *gts.. the greyscale work he does has been a big inspiration for attempting to push the medium
the shading is really fantastic and smooth, i just spent a good 2 minutes studying the shading on the body
really love it
