Artist's Comments

This drawing is based on a Heavy Metal comic book cover. It was a series of adult oriented drawings and stories that came out in the late 70's and 80's, I'm not even sure if they are still in production. I saw this cover and really really liked it, so I did what I did alot back then. In order to practice and get good at drawing, I would copy what I saw. I looked at the cover and drew this with some of my own minor alterations. That and the tone of it is a little different too.

I'd do the Elgin Marbles with a sledgehammer and wipe my ass with the Mona Lisa.

Thank you! i was a detail freak for awhile. probably because of my OCD manifesting itself under stress. because of my need to escape from my atrocious teenage life, i threw myself into my drawings and the worlds i created. sometimes i would lose myself in a drawing and certain details. then my intrest in the particular work would wane and i would move onto something else. this one i liked because of the effect of fur, armour and gear, and the overall proportions of the valkeryie came out pretty good, especially the fur cloak. glad you liked it.

Lo there do I see my father.
I see my mother, my sisters and my brothers.
I see the line of my people back to the beginning.
Lo they do call to me, they bid me to take place among them in the halls of Val Halla,
where the brave will live forever.

Thanks!!! texture is a big challenge in drawing. that is why i liked this one so much. i worked real hard on the hair and the fur cape. i have made big posters of these drawings and some of them looked real cool large. I made a huge 4 foot by 4 foot poster of this one and it actually had a presence to it.
