Description
A piece commissioned by of his character Terra d'Arcy.'Terra is a hero in a troubled land, and while not entirely bitter or sarcastic, she's not a happy person either. Her lands have been invaded, her cities in ruins or under siege, and her best friend died in an adventure, her captain in another. She gets troubling and cryptic visions regarding the prophecy... visions she keeps to herself. She was sent by one the gods, an angelic being named Mya, to stop an evil god that they had once kept prisoner.'

Hi! I'm making a cover for a friend of mine who's writing a book, and this picture would be perfect! Is there any chance I could use it? I would give you full credit, of course.

Hey there, would it be okay if I used this image on my site promoting a modernised version of chivalry?

Unfortunately I would have to say not, as it was commissioned by someone else.Β

Beautiful. Quite simply beautiful. I wouldn't know more words to do this justice.

What a beautiful work - What a beautiful, proud and strong lady knight. I really like this painting.
The armour looks great, too.

I love love love this picture! She's very regal-and-judgemental looking, which I think fits the background given like a glove. That is, a well-fitting glove. What jumps out to me the most is how the griffon's wing is framed behind her to make it, at a quick-glance, give the impression that the wing might be hers. Amazingly well-done. +1!

Thanks, yes, that was semi-deliberate, the positioning of the wings.

Yay, her attire is appropriate for battle and the weather. I like the muted colour scheme, it underlines her sadness and the gold on her sword.

I like seeing warrior women who aren't clad in leather and iron bikinis.
It helps this is beautiful as well. If you still do commissions I'd love to commission you.

Thanks. Send me a note about that and we'll discuss it.

I hope you do more female knight pictures (well especially ones wearing full sets of armor without boob plate (See this: [link] ) and of course without wearing a skirt like this one...
Maybe you could do Female Vampire Knight pictures perhaps? Although I still haven't seen you do pictures of Vampire women in street casual clothes like leather jackets, jeans, etc.

Metal bikinis are weapons of mass distraction.

Awesome looking character, very nice colours and great character.
the only thing is that the griffin would look more regal like the woman if he had his beak shut.

It's with her, hence she turns her back to it...

Hey! She's a Grey Warden ad her Griffin mount
I could help it. Don't kill me...
But seriously, this is wonderful. And I like the story behind it as well

I hadn't heard of them, either. I must live under a rock...

Grey Wardens are from a video game. They used to ride Griffins into battle
Guess that means you won't kill me lol

Sounds like she could apply to join then, she could even supply her own griffin.
