hello there !

i made this sometime ago, i always like to draw asian looking stuff, people, creatures heh, was trying with a shaolin priest in some peaceful warm environment, i enjoyed to paint this piece, was for fun and relaxation.Done in painter 7 with a touch of photoshop of course. oh yeah the name Shao-leen is written that way on purpose, its not a typo , sort of like a name or something heh bits me.

shao-leen by *MarkGart displays awesome lighting effects to fit the mysterious atmosphere surrounding him. It's a beautifully detailed piece from the surrounding forest to the intricate designs on the character's clothing. (Suggested by *LilithLairPoetry and Featured by !Subversive-imaginati)

Ah... time to put you on the watch.

you are absolutly mazingly talented.. from just the few pieces you have in your gallery, i was blown away.. this piece in particular really drew me in, the colors and soft golden tones, the details and shadows are incredible. the latge medallion, and the swords handle are so detailed its stunning.. i was wondering about the red jewl hanging around his neck though, it loks so much more.. "drawn" and not so much detailed and crisp in comparrison with the other things surrounding. was that done on purpose?

anyways, i love the stray leaves and soft faded background, and again the colors are lovely.. i can just imagine a gorgeous sunset off to the side where we cant see.. and i too love artwork depecting asian themes. theres something so honorable and rich about them.. really great work here.. :)

amazing. I think total master, like the kind that could cut you in half with his sleeves. Also the light background makes him seem darker and more dangerous
