Caphalor and Sardai

Description

Well... this one took forever.
This is Caphalor, one of my favourite characters from 'Die Legenden der Albae' and 'Die Zwerge' by Markus Heitz. He is an Alb (kind of dark elves.... they usually are not very nice).
The horse is not a horse but a Nachtmahr (well... could translate it with nightmare, but the word is not really used in that sense), a unicorn that was turned to evil. His name is Sardaî, and he's really cool... he is supposed to be black, with red glowing eyes, and his hooves burn the ground (I tried to draw sparks, but you don't see them).

I never manage to get anatomy correct if I try to draw somebody who is not seen exactly from the front or the side, so I tried to cover Caphalor with his cloak... but then I screwed up his face. Well. I'll practice...

It's great, now I know where my sister got that idea for the rocking horse.
It's late at night, so I wont write a professional recension here, just that I love it - except for the weird face, but that you do know, and the clouds, that are a bit plain/2dimensional/I'm-lacking-the-right-word-here. I think I'm hard to satisfy with reality-close paintings/drawings, but this is really good - especially the horse and it's assets.
And if it took you forever, you have to blame yourself, refusing to use a brush at least for the sky... :D
