Lead and Brimstone

Moved. Please comment and fave on Thanks


FULL VIEW PLEASE! Check it out. It's my four bad boys in a metal band. I really like how this drawing came out. Coloring was very difficult and there are a few effects I just wasn't able to pull off. Yes I know the lighting is off and I only got four to shine. Anyway a little back story on what's going on here. Once again this has nothing to do with the main storyline, but it's an image I had in my mind for a long time that finally wanted out. The band is Lead and Brimstone. Everyone can use the power of fire except for Thanatos since he's the only normal human. Still he's an arms dealer and has quite the collections of guns so hence the Lead part. In the real storyline they'd never get along to pull something like this off and well it's still showing through. We've got Owen Marsh on vocals, Davon Ember Flare on guitar, Jerone Thanatos on keyboard and Solan Rah on drums.

Solan was the perfect drummer since he's the sun. The sun is always steady so he's the time keeper. Davon had to be the guitarist because it's one of the instruments of the devil, the violin being the other. Owen was vocals because he's the cocky jerk that wants all the attention and to be in the spotlight. That left Thanatos for keyboards. So this is a scene from a concert and Davon is still after Owen's fire. With Owen being the jerk that he is seems like no one in the band likes him. Suddenly the melody of the guitar is lost. Of course when you're performing you can't stop. Owen looks back and sees Davon messing the the cables over by the amps and think it must have come unpluged and just keeps singing. Little did he know that Davon was making a noose. He shows it to the crowd then taps Owen on the shoulder so that when he turns he'll strangle him. Solan and Thanatos are looking on with smiles knowing what will happen and they seem quite happy about it. In fact Thanatos looks down right evil. Too funny. Owen's gonna die.

It was lots of fun to draw them out of their usual outfits again. Their clothes and instruments were inspired by Hammerfall, Running Wild and Stratovarious. Solan was the last one I designed and it's one of my favorites. It has so much detail and is so bright. I've been working on this for three days, that's since I scanned it, and man does my hand hurt. I think it was worth the effort and a nice birthday present to myself. I love how the pyramid background turned out. Originally I had a sun on a black background but decided this looked better. I did save the other version though. Once again Solan's the only 'nice' guy there. A little side note. Davon's guitar is based on the B C Rich Beast which is the most wicked looking guitar out there. I'd love to have one and I'm not even a guitarist.
