A Fallen Friend

Description

I had some major art block with the background of this piece, I feel like I kind of settled for something, but it turned out alright, just not what I feel I was hoping for.

A knight stands holding his fallen friend's sword and cloak. He stands strong, yet he is saddened by the loss of his friend. He is not the first to the memorial, the lover of the fallen knight has paid respects already. This is meant to somewhat be a tribute to those who served and those who survived, but have lost close friends trying to get through the storm. The knight is from a kingdom I have in my head called Latoria, an idea I enjoy playing around with here and there.

I like this very much. The guy has a little bit of an Anime face which shouldn't go with the knights image but it fits here. I love the stormy sky, it is just something I relate to. My favorite day is grey and rainy. <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt=":)" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=":) (Smile)"/> To me it looks like he's honoring a fallen member of service. Nice work on showing the wind blowing with the flurried leaves but I think there should be a little movement in the cape and the cloth that sword lays on. The armor looks very good, it creates the look of metal with the light hitting it and seems to shimmer and shine just right.
