Trying to capture Frazetta's style here, as opposed to the more realistic style we usually go for in these galleries.
I love Frazetta's work so much, and particularly this guy - the Death Dealer, as I'm sure so many other people do also on CGtalk. Painted in photoshop as fan art without reference except for Frazetta's own work for the character reference. Because of the pose I chose the hands were a pain, and I'm still not really satisfied with his right hand, but I guess I have to finish it sometime! I modeled a couple of elements in Max when I had trouble setting the pose. Finally spent quite a while composing it. Thanks for the help on my WIP for those who replied, was very helpful.

Comments and crit most welcome! Cheers.
