Castle Combe, Wiltshire

An illustration of our favourite Norman knight popping his feet up on a little creature for eternity - what an amazing stone carver the artist was, it's such a fantastic sculpture.


My original sketch is here. The above has lost some of the latter's vagueness and impression of close observation. That's sort of good and bad at the same time. I'm not displeased with this version though.

  1. Wow that is fantastic, you have such a cool style, specially with your special technique. The knight's feet in particular are instantly recognisable which must mean you capture the essence of the carving, and the creature has real character. It is ace.
