Commission for  CrimzonPhoenix of his character, a black wolf with blue tinted fur and blue eyes wearing military dog tags, wrestling with a phantom that resides in his head. It's a very personal piece, and I'm glad I was able to take it on.

The image that I was given for the phantom looked very much like it was in the shape of a Haunter (Pokemon), which explains why the phantom in this image may look like a Haunter to some people. However, I tried to make the phantom more unique by adding fire, lava drool, molten rock teeth, and uniquely fiery red glowing eyes. I think by adding those features it made the phantom seem more sinister and it's own unique being.

Also, I used A LOT of experimental techniques on this piece, and I think it came out rather well. :)
