Its just a grim reaper, not only Children Of Bodom can use this :). But I wouldn't say no making their next album cover, that's for sure.

Now this is cool! excellent work! I think it would be more usable as metalartwork if you added some destortion, took out most of the color, pumped up the contrasts and add some grain...

agreed with Gast... from what you've shown us, this is your most metal art but it's indeed a bit too smooth... try Gast advice and you should have a GREAT metal artwork ! :D

And the reaper could look less twodimensional and more realistic if you didn't have it to shine and elaborated its from...

Great work! the only thing which bugs me about it, is the sparkle on the scythe. Otherwise, magnificent.

That's one fucking great art work... I have a filosofical fascination
on death and the reaper.


In one word: BEAUTIFUL.
Congratulations for your work.

I really love this. But u could make ot more distorted like someone said and maybe in another piece you could do one with the grim reaper in da background and blurred by extreme weather or fog or sumfin. That makes it look really creepy.
