SufferDriver Sketchbook

haha your song is extremely corpsegrinder cannibal corpse influenced, i used to play death metal before i did art. I think you mixed it decently, i can tell the drums are programmed, which isnt my favorite personally, but i get a lot of modern metal goes for that out of necessity over aesthetic. you know its techinically performed well, maybe apply that sense of technical you know playing in time and being accurate to art. If you wanted to go anywhere with music id just focus on sounding different because it really sounds like a cannibal corpse song, almost like a 1 for 1 copy of some of their riffs/vocal style, etc. just without the speed, more slow, (like but not classified) doom metal.

So like your axe dude, his anatomy is weird, his pose doesnt really accomodate his character. he's clenched up like a little girl with an axe. you could swap that pose with little red riding hood with a napsack over her shoulder and itd work. make the silhouette distinct to the character, just blacked out it should feel like the executioner.

frazetta drew it like this

you know push the plant of his feet in the ground, the width of the axe held horizontally feels heavier, more intense. and if you wanna do a more one arm thing, think paul bunyon, but that would look more casual. This dude kills people, hes a cool design, kind of an eddie? from iron maiden face, but yea, youd grow a lot faster if you didnt paint and focused on anatomy rather intensely and drawing cool poses, but not spending hours painting something to try to cover the shortcomings of it
