The woman called 'The Angel of Death' Final

characters-and-creatures

I based this on a description in Ibn Fadlan's account of a Viking ship burial. This is the only written account that the world has of such a thing. I highly recommend people read Ibn Fadlan, it's fascinating.

This one started as a pencil sketch, which is not normal for me.
