Guardian of the Threshold

Description

Not quite finished with this one, gonna work on it some more, add some details and maybe change a few things. I'll probably post an updated version at some point. I’m still a beginner at Photoshop and photomanipulation, but I’m aiming to get better.

I envisioned this to be some kind of portal, a gateway to other worlds and times. The reptilian creature is guarding the steps, and many who sought passage ended on that pile of skulls and bones instead. I liked how the stars cluster through the second archway, and instead of doing some rippled surface or whatnot for the portal, decided to leave it like that.

Once again, inspired by the music of Bal-Sagoth and Blind Guardian.

Maybe leave the arches and stone black and white and give the stars a ton of color.
