Description A very... epic comission for   Jiskcar
Love it. Very much. Love the character and lore. 

This is a text description that Jiskcar gave us:

"The plot is inspired by the burning of the ancient Library of Alexandria.
Areikon is very patriotic. He believes his home country of Pretoria is superior to all others. He distrusts all foreign ideas. There is a university in his country that is collecting foreign books, and its professors are teaching the students about other cultures.
When Areikon returns home from conquering and crusading, he is shocked at the accepting attitude being preached by this university. Pretoria is a very militaristic nation, so he has a lot of power, and nobody dares defy him. He decides that the university must be destroyed. "

I'm am so so so impressed with the fire on the paper!
And I'm definitely getting remorse from those eyes. Maybe from the sheer awe of the sight of such a place burning, or the fact that something so magnificent was built for that purpose in the first place?
Either or, brilliant work!

OMG *^* It's ... It's ... AWESOMEEEEE!!!  
It's very very beautiful, I really like the background. I mean ... look that! The fire is fantastic like the smoke.
I really like how you draw the temples. But what I like most are the pieces of paper that is on fire  they are fantastic.

I can't say anything for the prospective.
In the end ... I LOVE your art

I agree with Reksanden. The drawing is wonderful but without the description I would have never guessed he burnt that place out of disgust.

Wow, amazing! This piece has such power and life in it. I adore the lighting and the way you've imagined the library. But where are all the people? lol

Might just be the angle, but his eyes are looking a little sad for torching the place
