Hello
This is my entry for the weekly Splinterlands Art Contest found!:

is a reference to THE Executioner Kraan
is the man the Chaos Empire calls when examples must be made. He rides into town on his horned ursidae and he swings his scythe, and the streets run with blood. No one knows the face behind the helm. No one knows the weight he carries.
At first, my idea seemed amusing and easy to execute, but in the end, it turned out to be quite a challenge and the project took longer than expected :)
After several attempts, I generated a suitable bear.
Planned how it would be composed.
Worked on it with AI... There were many attempts since this task was challenging and caused a lot of confusion. Here are some fun results:
this one and another as a base for drawing
Tried drawing it in a small format.
Realized it wasn't right and started over in a larger format, need to improve my skills...
Colored it with oil pastels.
Ran it through AI again...
Refined it, combined it with the drawing in Photoshop.
Aaand
The final result.
I think I didn't fully realize the potential of this quite cool character, but honestly, I want to move on to something else. There's so much interesting in life and in the game... Thank you for the opportunity to express myself, it has been a true pleasure. Wishing everyone prosperity, and until next time.
