Stormbringer 2012

This is the full piece for the "draw this again" contest on DA >>

The old version was made around... 2003? I think and it 's:

Again, I tried to convey the über evilness of the sword and the fact that Elric is just a tool of Fate himself -and alas! he knows it- as well as the "Blood & souls for Arioch" motto and all the multiverse implications so prominent in Moorcock's works.
The bar-cody title on top is quite intentional as well and hopefully it portrays the irony of the situation in all its british splendor.

I'm quite happy with the new version, except for maybe a bit of irky perspective on the sword. Oh well. Maybe in another 8 years I'll get it perfect.
