Reviews for "Antithesis"

Not bad for an attempt at Lovecraftesque horror storytelling. I believe however that the effect would be much greater if you did not just pick contradictory statements and put them in the same sentence. Subtlety is key.
The drawing itself is really nice, looks a bit like Mewtwo...

Thanks for the feedback! Illustrating is definitely my strong area and writing is just something I sometimes do on the side to spice things up. I am not sure if the writing brings down the value of the illustration itself, but some people enjoy the little tid bits of story I give, so it has sort of stuck to me. But I would definitely market my drawings before my writings, haha!

Holy moley! It's fricking FANTASTIC! I think of Prometheus (proto/ideal humans), satanism (horns, glyphs) and the Vitruvian Man. Any connection to The Ancients?

themefinland responds:

Thanks man! Occultism in general was the inspiration behind this and a couple of others that came before this (This one is a sequal of sorts to two other drawings I have made previously, see if you can figure out which!). The ancients and the old ones are very much also behind the inspiration to this, with the theme of unfathomable and incomprehensible things and knowledge.
