Burn, Sinners, Burn!
Solar Flare (or whatever you want to call the corrupted form of Celestia) in all her fiery glory preparing to rain down judgement on the sinful, vain, ungrateful ponies who have besmirched her brilliant Day for the last time! Or maybe she’s just hungry. :shrug:
I don’t actually have any serious head canon about this, or room in my head for cannons for that matter, I just wanted to draw a pony with the visual elements of a Balrog and this presented itself as the most plausible option. Also, aside from my portrait of Sombra, this is probably the closest I’ve come to drawing an 80’s Metal album cover. Just needs some skulls and lightning. Maybe a castle.
Watercolor on Strathmore 140 lb. watercolor paper. Finished: 9/4/14.

Not just on paper, but a watercolor painting to boot!
To answer your question, there are definitely other artists out there doing great things with traditional art. My personal favorites are Liaaqila (mostly simple but mega adorable), SherwoodWhisper (criminally underrated), and Longinius (his older stuff at least). There aren’t many who do watercolor paintings though, and imo none on the level of the wizard of art. You can see the others here though.

Oh, wow…and this is art on paper…I’m shocked!!
Hm…curious. Now anyone doing such epic drawings on paper like this? Anypony know such artists?
