Saint Michael. This is from a, sort of, personal project I was working on while trying to learn ZBrush a good while ago. The project was about some sort of diplomatic intrigues between the choirs of Heaven and the legions of Hell. I figured while I was learning how to use ZBrush I’d try to ‘theme’ the work I was doing so I’d have a body of work on a single theme that I might try to develop into an ongoing work.
This is Michael on a visit to Hell as an Ambassador from Heaven. (apologies if anyone offended by the religious aspect).
It’s also a sister image to this one showing Belial, Hells Ambassador to Heaven. Well. In he is in my story anyway.
