More wing studies!

When approached by an authority figure in the hierarchy, lesser demons and angels must lower their heads and shield their eyes with their wings, clasping their hands in a praying position until told otherwise by the authority. This act of respect is called to lehissaref and was made to mimic the way seraphim behave around God.

“A power so divine one must shield their eyes and pray for permission before gazing upon it”

This is the meaning behind the act of lehissaref and it is used as a sign of respect amongst angelic and demonic culture, similar to a bow or curtsy.

Facial structure studies on my most difficult character to draw, and of course, my main character.

Khizayonn, the Second Duke of Lust, demon of sadism. The only demon in Hell to have been born a human.

He succeeds at neither being human nor demon, what else is left?
