Didn't turn out quite like I'd planned, but it's still okay. This looks SOOOOO much better before the resize to 640 !! Normally I don't seem to lose quite so much detail, but the difference on this one was drastic.

Ok here we go a slightly morbid shot :) I like the idea. The scythe is backwards and while I understand what that gains for the shot it isn't how one holds a scythe if they are going to use it. The death wings lighting is a bit harsh on the bottom side and might benefit more from full lighting.
