[QUOTE="Oni, post: 4194758, member: 380"] The mood of the Balor is very good. I really like the design for the head and there are alot of nice little details in the pic, I especially like the little crowned skulls it's wearing. I'm not a fan of the anatomy. The problem when you change anatomy yet remain so close to a form that everyone recognizes it doesn't come off as different, it comes off as wrong. I can clearly see that the artist is trying to convey thick skin but I think it looks all the more odd were arms pinch so thin in the upper region above the bicep. The wrist seem smallish for such a built creature. The abs bother me a lot, they look like the artist just forgot to drawn in the line to seperate the left and the right. I guess what it boils down to is he looks like he's wearing one of those stuffed fake muscle shirts and that takes away from what is otherwise a great pic. Personally I wish the muscle detail had been dialed back a bit and I think it would have made it look as though it had thicker, heavier skin. He also seems to be missing his right thumb. But overall it's an enjoyable picture, good mood. [/QUOTE]
