The picture was originally made for the hungarian MMORPG Renaissance as a Concept Art.
The picture shows a Necromancer, who prepares himself and his minions for the battle. I tried to capture the moment, where he spawns a living dead to take control over his life. I didn't use any reference, except the skeleton. I tried to make everything by pure fantasy, so it lasted a bit longer to finish it (about 5 days).
I drew the characters to paper by hand, scanned it and colored with Photoshop. It contains exactly 63 layers.
