Blood and Iron

Yes, I've been dead online. I blame dead white guys. 300 pages of them. Do you realize how many exiled kings run to England?

Guess who I was reading about when I came up with this design.

This is my entry for the contest "Otaku and Lyrics." The goal is to incorporate lyrics of a song into a wallpaper. I was already working on this wall when I decided to join the contest, so I literally Googled "blood and iron lyric". I think there were three different songs by that name. The one I used was by an artist called Cirith Ungol. Here are the reasons why:

  • The other ones had religious undertones. When I say undertones, I mean the lyrics were practically screaming BOW DOWN OR GOD WILL SMITE YOU.
  • Cirith Ungol = Lord of the Rings = How could you not love it?
  • Just read the lyrics.

Please note I've never actually heard the song, but the lyrics were so awesome I really didn't care.

Just because I haven't been on doesn't mean I haven't been drawing anything. Look forward to a Fan Art (maybe two) and a wallpaper (maybe none) soon!
