Apophysis & PSCS2.

Done earlier this year.

If you are a fantasy reader... there is a trilogy of books written by Mervyn Peake that will be right up your alley (even though they are not really fantasy in the strict sense). Gormenghast is the Kingdom in which the novels take place. The novels are 'Titus Groan', 'Gormenghast' and 'Titus Alone'.

Woah! That's awesome! I really like the owl eyes (Reminds me of the Earl) ... were they purposefully created?

I watched Gormanghast on TV some years ago and enjoyed it.

Nice image.

Don't let pretensions and negativity restrict your creativity.

I wish I could say those eyes were on purpose, but truthfully, no. It was after the fact that I made the association and ended up titling this with the kingdom's name.

Thanks Roz. I have a copy of it, and watch it from time to time. I've also read the books twice. Glad you like this! Take care!!

I haven't read the books, but I'll look for them in the library... Very cool rendering. At first I thought it was supposed to be like bottles or something because I looked at the edges, but now I see the "owl eyes". Nice.

Thanks Sam. Glad you like it! The books are very well written, and very different than your typical fantasy novel you would read these days.

Ah, well... It's so beautiful anyway. I just figured that the eyes were deliberate, making some connection with Lord Sepulchrave and barn owls.

Yes. I always thought this looked some weird creatures in glass bottles!
