... I had it on repeat... all night ;)
I'm constantly updating this description, please forgive me...
I should mention that this one was done last year and I thought it would fit perfectly to the theme.. so it wasn't made specifically for this contest.
The song is from a folk-metal band named Finntroll from Finland and the lyrics are in Swedish..
Svart Djup
I vinden viskar dödens stämma
Onda stjärnor på himmelen stirra
Bland furor eka ett isande skrik
Urskogens klor i nattlig sky
Ur rymdens svarta djup...
Ur rymdens svarta djup...
Fem fot svart stål han i sina nävar klämmer
En svart skugga från jordens djupaste hål
Långa öron och knivskarpa horn
Under brynen glöda två illröda kol:
Nu lyfts värdet mot himmelens rand
Syndastålet nu frysa luft till is
Nu livlösa förbli var man, var kvinna
Domen falla och tystnad härska
O, rymdens svarta djup...
O, rymdens svarta djup...
[English translation:]
[Dark Depths]
In wind whisper the tones of death
Evil stars in the sky now stare
Beneath the trees echoes the freezing cry
Ancient forest's claws in the night sky
From vast dark depths...
From vast dark depths...
Black five foot blade clenches in his fist
Dark shade from the deepest hall of earth
Long ears and razorsharp horns
Under helmet glows two scarlet coals...
Now rises darkness towards heaven's boundaries
Lustful steel now freezes winds to ice
Thus lifeless remains man and woman
Judgement falls and silence reigns
Oh, wide dark depths...
Oh, wide dark depths...
Used a free brush for the pattern from www.thegraphicfrog.com.
Also sincere apologies for the SBS, my connection crashed and I was only able to upload the first very rough sketch... here's the rest.

Truly amazing.
awesome work.....but It would be great If I can see some more steps in SBS.....
wonderful paint work.. good luck
Excellent job indeed! I wish I had this much imagination....! But some small details: a high resolution would be wonderful and a more detailed SBS would be helpful for the ones who could learn something from it! Like me....lol! This is really awesome for a game concept! Best of luck!
..woahh.... incredible
well it would be great if you put the lyrics or atleast give a link for the song... Coz this contest is hard to judge without knowing the song or the lyrics...
high res would be appreciated, and a better sbs... Other wise a Very nice fantasy piece.
sbs??!! unbelievable!!
I'm gonna have to agree with the KY man and Tuckinator...a better SBS would be more convincing
looks great
Great image Bad SBS, ... oh, dejavue,..... but its true.
hey thanks for the tips and comments! sorry bout the SBS, my connection crashed.. that was just the very first rough sketch. I'll attempt to post the rest...
Outstanding skills......Ditto on the SBS will wait for an update.....
EDIT:I have voted but personally I am not completely convinced….
superb job man, really cool
dont know what the sogn is soooo to me it just looks like a picture of a troll and nothing more
Much better sbs, I know what you mean about less layers for art, I'm trying to use less and less for digital painting's but it's a hard habit to break!
Here's the music link:

very very nice
I found your portfolio on DA, Very nice stuff! You may want to include that this entry wasn't made specifically for this contest though, as it's from jan 08
You're right, the painting is not new. Though it fit the theme perfectly as I was painting it for a song I must admit though that I'm not very familiar with this place, I hope i haven't broken any rules? Again?
Looks like you're good now, just the more details you give, the better off you are.
thanx for linking the music, cmyk....that is some pretty interseting stuff
Great job and excellent band. Why does Finland produce such good metal and goth groups?
