"Star By Star"

We were alone and on our own, in the dark between the stars
From the shadows to the pyre, amidst the chaos, from the stars
Love, life & liberty, Hate, death & captivity
Like a stain of starless darkness, across the canvas of space

STAR BY STAR
Corrupting all of humanity
So much alike are we
When I see you I see me

STAR BY STAR
STAR BY STAR

Galaxies glitter in the black night sky, Towards progress, towards death
From the stars we have come, & to the stars we will return

The violence of passion - The passion of violence
The perverse impulses - The savage egoism
The wicked presence - The wicked essence
The thing that unites us - The thing that divides us

STAR BY STAR
Corrupting all of humanity
So much alike are we
When I see you I see me

A few months back, I was thumbing through one of my old Wizard magazines and found a picture from DC Comics "Infinite Crisis" story arc that really, really reminded me of Adramalech. So I used said picture as a reference and, along with inspiration from the song "Star By Star' by The Kovenant, I drew this up.

I'm pretty happy with it, though I still look at it and see quite a few things that I think I would have done differently (and this is also the last time I 'type' Adramalech's tattoos in PhotoShop. I'm going back to my old technique for those and just draw/write them in from now on).

Enjoy...and anyone who sees my subliminal message (though only people who really know me will be able to pick it out) gets a cyber cookie!
