Thank you "Bleak Lead", I'm glad you were able to see the angel's true strength, dispite the wings being in the way, good eyes...

Awesome Picture. So glad to se an angel that finally isn't feminine. Your Artwork is truly professional.

That's so good to hear! I really make a conscious effort to break away from sterio type images, by not repeating what everyone else has done in the past! This method doesn't go over too well with people with one track minds... So I'm really glad that you can view my myth depictions, outside man made boundaries... Thank you!

I like your depiction of him- it's so different from what you would often see him look like in art. Nice job, I love the wings and the sword.

Base on extensive angelic research, there are no specific criterias concerning the color of an angel's wings (unless your commercializing)... So I chose to contrive what I felt suited this depiction! Thank you for your comment and interest...

That's what makes the whole concept of spiritual beings so fascinating, let your own interpretation be guided by your inner spirit...
