This is great. I like the drama and the story it suggests. The aging of Merlin and Arthur works well. I like Merlin in particular, and how you imagined his future clothes. Also his gestures.

Thank you mystery artist!

I really like the textures in this--the magic and the armor--it looks like a pastel drawing. :D

OH sweet! I LOVE the idea of older!Arthur and Merlin and Morgana within the canon of the Merlin BBC show. Your costume designs are very kickass and still very Merlin-y. And YAY in this future Arthur knows (finally!!!) about Arthur's magic, I approve.

OH MORGANA. Still donning the crushed velvet cloaks, I see. XD

The armour is glorious. Merlin's clothing looks like he mugged Kerr Avon which is a good thing in many ways :) I really like the magic, and their faces.

The texture/coloring is really interesting, I can't stop looking at it. The metal boots gleam so pretty!

Oh, I really like his armor. And the ball o' magic is just gorgeous; it looks alive and full of motion. I like Merlin's clothes too. Great pic!

I LOVE the upgrade of the costumes for the older characters, and the expressions on their faces! lovely!

I CANNOT STOP STARING AT THE BALL O' MAGIC. It's swirly and bright and wild and alive and scratchy all up around Merlin's head. O_O

BADASS. I love Merlin's costume design... really cool. :D

[ileliberte.livejournal.com]

Very interesting composition, and I like the texture of the piece. Nice work :)

Oooh, I love it when characters get aged-up! You've captured a very tense moment so nicely here, one really wants to know how the situation will be resolved :DD

This is really neat! Nice lighting effects.

I like this! Everyone is arranged/posed really well, and I looove the faint crackling energy behind Merlin. And the shine on the armour. <3

It's very poignant to see where the characters are all going to go. And I like the aged-up designs - they look like they fit both the legend and the show.

I love this! It's like a screencap out of the middle of a really tense action scene, and the energy plays beautifully. The body language is really strong, the colors are fantastic, and I can definitely see both Merlin and Arthur in their older versions: never an easy task to accomplish! Bravo.

I love how you imagined them in the future, tying it with the legends with the confrontation and looks. Merlin's magic uses a really cool effect there!
