Merlin Tarot Project - XIII - Death
Title: Death
Artist: searains
Warnings: None
Character: Arthur, Questing Beast
Notes: One of my two cards, XIII: Death, for the Merlin Tarot Project.
9 hours, slaving away at photoshop. It turned out much better than I expected - I don't even remember the last time I worked this long on a single drawing! But it was really fun thinking of the symbolism (which I'm sure you smart folks will be able to figure out, yeah?) and then a way to fit everything into the space provided. You guys can also check out the lineart if you want. Trivia: No one signed up for this card. Cue amusement!
As since someone "didn't get it" I packed an explanation about most of the symbolism into it's deviantART page description.
Aaaand closeups, because this version is tiny:
Actually today someone just told me that they didn't know they had gotten an assignment, and they expected me to reply to their comment with it. Make sure you check the assignment post, because now I am worried about the people who didn't reply to it :C.
I'll also be updating the aforemented post with links as the submissions come in. Just make sure you put it somewhere where I can see. Like, in this community.
