I FINALLY GOT THIS PIECE DONE!!
It's taken me a while due to procrastination and lack of stock. I'm totally open to comments and suggestions. My text tool has NOT been working with me at all so some of the text looks kinda pixelated. Damned text.
But the idea of the 7 Deadly Sins has always been a favorite subject to me. The movie Seven was a HUGE inspiration for this piece. Along with Dante's Inferno, and Paradise Lost. Beautiful works.
Well I did use a TON of stock in this piece, time to give credit where credit is due!
I hope you all enjoy!
Remember! Comments and Suggestions are totally welcome! I'm always hoping to improve my work.

it took me FOR FUCKING EVER omg..
Lol it took me weeks to get the right stock and i'm still not content with the stock that i did use!
Thanx for the comment!
I used so much stock i NEEDED to put a lot of work into crediting everyone. I have a system where i keep track of EVERY artist that i use stock from in my folders and such. So i can never ever forget who's stock it is LOL
I'm a winner
Just wondering though... did you use adobe? If so, I might had a background glow to some of the darker text. A bit of it is hard to read... I think it would be better if you didnt have to squint to make out what it said.
Well thank you!
yeah it did take me forever holly hell it took me a long time. Simply because i had images in my mind but i had a lack of images to use. I mean i did some serious searching but i figured if i wanted to do this the right way i'd have to do it the hard way Lol. The gluttony one the girl was originally sucking on a sucker it was a PAIN to make it look like she was eating grapes.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
