This one is actually my third wizard drawing, my first isn't on this site right now. Lots of my family make fun of his pose but I still think it's damn awesome.
Uhh.. I think this one's my 5th, I'm not entirely sure though. One of my half-brothers suggested I do a wizard drawing a rune or something, so voila.
I really wanted to experiment with some gore, didn't turn out the greatest but if I think it turned out pretty well in the end, the claw scratch is there just so I could use the fancy paint brush on GIMP.
I wanted to try creepy looking, first it was actually meant to be a child wizard, then their back became curved and I thought it looked more 'ghosty'. Also backgrounds, yay!
