Description


In an effort to kickstart my novel-writing muse, I've been rereading some of my favorite works (hence the Lord of the Rings image I did earlier.) Another of my favorite books is the Hyperion Cantos by Dan Simmons. Here we see the Shrike-- a nine-foot-tall, spike-covered metallic four armed demon with the power to manipulate time. He is entering the Time Tombs on the planet Hyperion. Credits: Way too many to list. The creature is Darkwing Zero's Berserker (with two more arms added); buildings include the Guild Fountain, tunnel and wall from the Camthalion set, a freebie futuristic apartment building found here at Rosity, a tree from Kay's Lair, props from all over, shaders from all over... Thanks as always for looking and commenting!

Very nicely realised image; one of my favourite series of novels as well, and you have certainly done justice to the 'character'. Very nicely done!
