Since I haven't submitted something in a really long time, and I've had this done for a couple weeks now, I figured I'd put it up just for the sheer purpose of doing so. I'd actually been thinking about sharing it for a long time and it's probably best I do it quick since the more I look at this the worse it starts to look.
This is bookmark-shaped because I had a thin strip of paper from a kind of project I started but never followed up on, and because I don't have any good bookmarks (I'm using a couple receipts from other books I bought, and a menu from Jimmy John's Gourmet Sandwiches), I decided to draw something on it. I whipped it up really quick in astronomy, I think we were watching a video about... something really easy.
The coloring I did just as fast since I wasn't exactly intending to submit this anywhere, but at least the Photoshop effect on the metal parts makes it look okay overall.
(The image of the cathedral in the "background" is from Google, just so we're clear on that.)
the metal effect on the armor is very nice...but, it doesn't fit the sword...but still, it's very cool. The main problem is a lack of a definite light source(s).
Yeah, lens flares can be tricky and seem to be overdoing it a bit if you ask me. It's best to just do the lighting effects by hand, that way the artist has more control.
Thanks for the comment and fave, much appreciated.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have you ever wondered what something meant as far as Photography goes? Things like "Cable Release", "AEB", "C-41", "Neutral density filter", and "Polarizer"? The photonotes.org Dictionary of Film and Digital Photography is one place to stop and get it all answered. This is quite a valuable resource that explains in depth what a photography term means, and will help those understand who might not know what something is.

Nice job detailwise overall though.
