Added 2025-03-23 16:37:01 +0000 UTCWanted this to have a clear renaissance feel to it and what more renaissance than a beautiful man completely nude posing while being visually depressed.
The thing that’s always attracted me about Warren is this duality between Archangel and himself, the servitude and violence against the carefreeness and heroism.
You can see the representation of that conflict repeating everywhere in the piece: the strong lights against the strong shadows, the somber expression against the cheerful warm colors, this beautiful person but wearing bandages all over his body, the wings of a flying creature resting in the water.
I’m usually very cut to the point when it comes to the things I’m representing but this time I wanted to give it more thought and leave it a bit less on the nose.
Also, saved the PSD file for anyone curious, all layers left exactly as they end up looking when I’m done with a piece.
Anyway, working on commissions so I might share a WIP or two in the next couple days. Opening SFW poll this tuesday too!
All the love.

Oh, I love the short hair old school Warren but I think we should have a conversation about the long hair

2025-03-23 18:05:16 +0000 UTCI prefer the short hair pre-Archangel look for Warren. But you're making a strong argument here. Awesome work.
