Picture made for :iconmrhellz:'s contest [link].

The theme was "Door of hell" and the character had to have horns and size of the picture was to be 600x600 pixels. :) This was the first time I've painted a digital landscape and I must say it was really hard! :S Since the size is so small I guess you can't see the girl very well, but if anyone is interested I can show you the bigger version as well (the size I worked in was 6000x6000 pixels).. :)

Along the way making it, I kept stuffing in new concepts (by accident :P) so in the end I had to take alot away to make it less messy.. ;P

It was inspired by the underworld, Hel, from the norse mythology. However this is NOT Hel nor is the girl the Goddess Hel, it was just my inspiration :)

Edit:

Since I didn't get into top 10, I've uploaded a bigger version.. To be honest, I'm kinda disappointed, I spent hours on this picture and it kinda feel like a waste of time.. lol

definitely not a waste of time! Are you crazy?!
It looks amazing, the landscape withing her dress, especially. It really captures the essence of Hel. Great work. Are her lanterns supposed to kinda be stars? That is what I thought when I saw them, but I may be missing some type of deeper meaning....

I really do love it.

And who says the door of hell cannot be pretty? Her beauty is a trap to lure you into her evil clutches ;)

This wasn't a waste of time! It's such a cool concept, I love it! I love her horns and the lanterns (and the lighting from them), and the landscape is beautifully done. Great job!
