This is Llothiel (no relation to the Spider Queen--I invented his name before I knew anything about Lloth/Lolth). He is a long-time character of mine from Diablo II, a necromancer and follower of Rathma. If he were to be translated into D&D he would probably be a multiclass of mage (necromancer/evoker), druid and cleric. He is by nature a scholar and a healer, but has taken up his magic and command of the forces of nature to fight for the lives of his loved ones. The original face and figure were rendered in Poser 5. Everything else is hand painted in PSP8. I was fairly pleased with how this turned out. If people like it, I may do more in this style.
I must say that this is one of the best portraits that I've ever seen. Its great! He has the look of Sephirot from Final Fantasy VII. Perfect as a necromancer, some other evil character or a very cool neutral/good character.

I agree; if it started as a poser shot, you're eliminated all traces. Looks great.
