This is a new project I am starting now, which I decided long time ago.

This thread will only contain the concept arts related to creatures of hell realms, I'll design the creatures according to the images I've seen from old paintings and scriptures, such as Dante's Inferno and various religious scriptures aswell, some images entirely would be my own design, some of them will be inspired from old scriptures about demons' anatomy.

And I will give a small amount of information about demons, most of them would be make up by myself, but I will copy some informations from wikipedia or such aswell :read:

So I hope you look forward to it and add your comments and critiques 8|

Daemonic mythology, it has peaked my interest, I'd like to see what you can come up with.

Hmm, maybe include the various forms of torture they perform on the people in each layer? This concept has always interested me. :read:

I actually wanted to do it, but if only admins here allow it, I may post them :read: as it would be a bit too extreme !

Seven circles does Hell have, the lowest of which, is reserved for betrayers and mutineers.

Feel free to run it past us via PM or MSN if you'd like General. Sure none of us would mind.

Looking forward to seeing this.

I love the quaint splash image you made. While you did mirror that drawing of the Lord of Flies, it's well done. I especially like how well you integrated his face with the body of the fly.

Thanks and yes, its a mirror, I didn't explain anything about it since it is too obvious :duh: I just draw the half of it and Photoshop do the rest :D

Absolutely brilliant drawing wise, as always, General. :D
You do need a little bit of work on the formatting and layout though.

Put the text in newspaper format and have another look at it, it might look better. Also since you're discussing daemons how about you try using a different font, something ancient and partially difficult to read. It will add tone.

Very good decision :sly: Actually, I like Old English, it is a very nice style and although it is a bit complicated, it is not impossible to read.

Blackletter fonts are too cluttered for main body text.

Use Garamond, Helvetica (hurrr, hell) or something similar for the body, the blackletter is fine for headings.

Question: Why are those demons you post so ugly (no offense, but they really are)?

Because thats the point of it :sly: Both creature I draw ' have to be ugly ' , one is damned because he was boasting around with his beauty and told humans are ugly and another one ' intentionally created ' as ugly to give even worse terror and pain to his slaves in his realm ;)

Though I guarantee you, you will see ' cool looking ' ones aswell in time, not only random fleshes :) Story is too important in this project.

Also these all will be just a bit detailed sketches, if I decided to come up with fully completed piece of every creature, my lifespan will not be enough for that :) and my skills not enough to give much time aswell, in this project,I will both learn and attempt to create a project in my mind.

I don't know about you, but I've never pictured demons as looking sleek or pretty.
