Death Dealer Triumphant

inspired and based on and is Frazetta's Death Dealer. The Dealer's image is so raw and iconic that I had to a picture of him. I was channeling Mark Schultz and Gary Gianni when I did this. Mark is one of the coolest guys I've ever met and Gary is one of the coolest guys I haven't. They're both mad good artists with very separate styles. There's more Gary going on here, but Mark really inspired me to strive to get better. So I credit them both. I'm damn pleased with it and I think it can speak for itself, really. I listened to a lot of Therion while making it and my study sketches will be in my scraps. Enjoy.

[edit]
For the record, since no body mentioned it if they realized this (only a handful of people I know here listen to metal), but this composition is send/ode to/ parody of Hammerfall's live album "One Crimson Night."
