"I never was a fan of this symbol, or what it represents." - Iro Ignatia

Iro's Macuahuitl, branded with a depiction of The Phoenix conquering the skies.
Though unlike most of his people, Iro is less than enthused about endorsing old, dangerous legends.
Seems only fair he tries to scrape it off..

One day, I will produce Iro's story and hopefully build some context around the pieces I get commissioned.
Until then, I hope you enjoy the view.

Work done by the ruthlessly efficient and top scoring artist  lldelphin
Seriously, they produced this at what I consider to be a break-neck speed, and they nailed the exact vibe I was hoping for on the first attempt.
I am genuinely impressed by this artist and adore their style.
Their work with facial expressions in particular caught my eye.
