Fanart for my friend's novel Izvršitelji nauma Gospodnjeg (could be translated as "The Executors of the Lord's Intention"). This was originally painted in May for a show, but it was done over two nights in great haste, the background was horrible and I wanted to fix it before I upload it.
The novel is about vampires and a secret order of catholic priests who fight the forces of evil. Unfortunately, some of them don't have problems with murdering innocent people for the "greater good", like the one shown in the painting.
It took 14 hours of work, I used some references for the axe and chainmail (no references for the priest — that's why he doesn't look so realistic). It's a huge image, around 8300x11800 px, and it was printed as a 70x100 cm poster.
