Laura, Shadow, Bast, Zorya Polunochnaya (?), Thoth and Loki, all from Neil Gaiman's "American Gods".

I added a whole shitload of stuff to this after scanning the in-progress pic. The weird thing is, I did it all while driving in the backseat of a car! No squigglyness! :D

Shadow's wing is my favorite part. I love all the detail you always put in the background.

This is very beautiful, and I love how complicated the composition is. I picture Shadow looking bigger and older, though, but I think you captured Laura very well.

Wow. Hey, I loved that book. I'm not sure Laura was supposed to be blonde, though. Ah well.

Reminds me a bit of Lachesis' first appearance in 5 Star Stories. You ever seen that?

Thanks for making the fave and comment. :)

Yeah, since I finished it I've been having second thoughts about how he looks. I think I should've made his skin darker, mostly. ^^; Thanks!

Heh no prob ^^ I keep picturing him with longish black hair and light-coffee colored skin, because of all the Native American references and questions on hertitage. ^^

Thanks for replying back! Lots of people with as many fans as you don't bother with it, so its really appreciated.
