Description
"Keeper of the gates of the Netherworld, Aieb Nechros was back in time just a human necromancer, she sacrificed her own life to the preservation of the barrier, to prevent the evil seeds of chaos from dripping into the world of the living. With the defeath of the lords of chaos in the seventh age, her duty was no longer needed, but the high council decided to seal her away because she became corrupted with the powers of chaos - burning with age and thirsty for revenge, the dark wizard became the new mistress of chaos, grouping the fallen remains of the armies of chaos around her, and she keep guarding the gates, and each soul fated to the banishment in the netherworld is tested against her champions, as she searches a new commander for her new army... The time will come..."
Eh! This one was done very fast by my standards - and as a result there are a lot of things i don't really like in this one - the POV could be better, the lights are not realistic, it is fairly simple and there is very little postwork... "why post, then?" - i hear you asking... :) Well, because this one *had* to be there today - as it is dedicated to one most wonderful person, which is celebrating today the anniversary of her coming to this world - ***Happy Birthday*** Azr1el!!! :D You didn't think i would miss this one, did you? ;) I really hope you like it even if it's a bit rushed!!

And of course a big thank you to the viewers for sparing a moment of their time, and maybe for leaving a comment (which are always appreciated) if they are so inclined.
A *very special* thank you goes also to a bunch of persons which i won't mention - they are any and all of those who asked, begged, poked, complained or threatened me about my lack of posts - while it might seem that i don't really care since i post so rarely, i appreciate every word so much more than i can tell! You all rock, folks!! :D
One last note before i go - many people knows already my feeling toward the whole hot20 thing... but for those that still don't, should i decide to participate in a contest (which is how i see the hot20...) i'll post my image in a contest page, not in the main gallery - so i respectfully ask you all to *not vote* for this pic (not that it deserve any, i mean... :D) - i don't want to hurt your feelings, but should you feel "that itch" to your clicking finger, please resist it and you'll do me a favor! That, and because a wired a bunch of poisoned needles into the button - click at your own risk! ;D
Till next time,
Grim

Be still my heart and a big exhale (I really was getting tired of holding my breath LOL) This may be your idea of a quickie snicker but I think it's just fantastic; well worth the wait and close enough to a dark angel for me. Marvelous characters both of them and a terrific scene..love the reflection from her staff on her face. This is a wonderful dedication and I may not push the button but it still gets my vote.

I really admire the fact you don't post often as it's like fine wine when you do - the stuff takes time! LOL! I think the same way and I believe you post even less frequently than I do which is incredible in itself! This is a fantastic image and the concept is ouder than bombs! Defintely my type os style of art and I think it came out awesome! What could be better than wicked mages with demons running around? What a fantastic character and that outfit is one of my faves that I haven't used yet! The demon is amazing and I hear they make great pets! LOL! I just hope she has a large enough sandbox for the guy! A most wonderul birthday gift and dedication, and it's my one year anniversary to the site tonight and I'll very glad to see this from you!! Outstanding work and dedication and I promise I won't touch any buttons per your request!! Excellent artwork!
