Very cool and somehow sort of tragic. I suppose its the pose and perhaps the story.

I like how you moved the legs and arms to create the flying posture. I also like the drama of the head as it views the wing catching fire..Nice mythological reference work..

thanx Heilein,you`re right...I saw the Icarus position in the little figure and used the wings from Swan Song as reference for my image..the wings are made from his thorax and airbrush

Vokaris.I stretched him on purpose.It`s the force from the solar winds pushing him forward slightly on the small of his back as the greater force of the solar gravity sucks him towards his impending dooooom!!!!! At leat that was what my intuition told me.

I brought it in PS, resized it back to squarish proportion and it looked just fine (doom, gloom and all). The current look reminds me of a standard (4:3) tv program stretched to fill a 16:9 tv monitor. It's just me, I guess

PAL/NTSC ?..maybe there`s more than one way to skin a cat (sorry,cat was last entry.hehe) anyway,I appreciate you taking enough interest in my entry to do this & give me your constructive criticism and your vote .It is appreciated...thanks Vokari
