Description
"You're sweet, boylike and pretty as a girl. I wish I had one glimpse of you in antique velvet the way you were for him, for Marius. I wish I could see for one moment how it was when you dressed in stockings and wore a belted doublet sewn with rubies. Look at you, the frosty child. My love doesn't even touch you."The Vampire Armand by Anne Rice
Last version of Armand. I guess I never gonna paint him again, because... well, I'm totally satisfied with this illustration, which is exactly how I imagined Armand when I read the Vampire Chronicles. Armand v.1 will be on my scraps section. By the way, I wanted to paint the exact same position as on v.1, just to see my evolution from 2006 to now.

Beautiful! The face is unreally perfect without being unreal (if you know what I mean) and the texture on the velvet is amazing...

Truly beautiful! They should have used it for the cover of the Book! <3 Thanks to you, I'm reading it again now...lol I remember hating him in the first book for what he did to Claudia...But by the time I read TVA I couldn't help but like him and feel a little sorry for him

Haha I would love to illustrate Anne Rice's books. And yeah, the first impression of Armand and Lestat are not the final ones, once you had read the entire chronicles. Thanx a lot!

This is also how I imagined young Armand, but then I imagined him with longer hair when he's older. This is perfect, and beautifully done. You are truly a talented artist. I hope to see more fanarts from the Vampire Chronicles.

This quote you chose to your artwork..... I really have to re-read Armand's story! *---* Wonderful job! This is exactly how I imagine him too!
*sigh* I hope you are not a Twilight fan cause I have to say this... everytime I think about Anne Rice's vampire chronicles I could cry when I see that sparkling vampire's seem to be so much more of a success for all those teenage girls.
It's a shame!
Anyway, you rock for this artwork! I've seen your other ones as well... You have a new big fan!!! Wonderful!

Thank you so much for your words! IΒ΄m glad you like my artwork, and specially Armand. Haha, no, IΒ΄m not Twilight fan at all. In fact, I hate the story. I read the books and never seen one of the movies. As you said, itΒ΄s a shame how such story is successful.
Once again, thanks a lot honey!
