I've always been a really hesitant to post this piece; mostly due to a lot of negative connotations created by others surrounding it.
this is quite possibly, the very first piece of art I have ever commissioned during my time on the internet, and it's by the insanely skilled and talented Drak.
people who have been following my gallery for a great deal of time will recognize this guy- CenterLeft[left of center], my celestial, yield sign faced guardian of time and history/the physical remnants of the Calatonan god Azkin. it's probably one of the few, highly personal characters that I still frantically hold onto from the [five] universe. and one who I've generally deemed as "too cool for the internet". xD
ANYWAY, I've digressed too much.
art is not my own, though I wish I were this good. again, it's by Drak.
and you can see more drawings of it here:

I only ask that you please, please, PLEASE, don't draw Centerleft without my consent. I do love gift art of all kinds, but this is an incredibly personal character to me.

I remember centerleft. <: I think I was watching you on dA around the time you started posting art featuring him.
I always thought the sign was stuck in the 2nd dimension and always faced observers. Or that was what could be comprehended of it's "face".
I was a huuuuuge fan of Drak a number of years ago, but somehow I don't remember seeing this! really cool
Amazing anatomical rendering and effects meets amazing critter concept. Very nice.
yessssss. <333
I swear Drak is one of just a handful of people who totally understood the character and drew it exactly how I saw it in my head.

I have no prior expectations of the character, other than vaguely remembering having seen the other art (in many of which the head-sign is in profile so not so obvious). So I've got totally no clue about any 'connotations'. I just see a lot of coiled/restrained energy in the figure's bunched muscles, the destruction/unmaking of the building behind it, vortex sky, flowers coming up from the ravaged land beneath the creature, and despite what has to be one helluva shockwave, the butterfly in the foreground, coming out towards the viewer.
There's a LOT that can be read into that, symbolically, or one can just look at the anatomy, the color-work, and the effects and overall critter-concept in image terms and go DAYUM.

Wow, this is quite a headspin. I think I need a little lie down. :3
\but the most important question is...
Will he yeild?

Whoa :O I never thought I'd find this on FA! I remember seeing this in my deviantart submissions box and being blown away, both by Drak's incredible talent and by this brilliant, enviable character design; I found both rather fascinating for a time.
Sorry to gush, it's just... wow.

What an incredible character, and what amazing things Drak did with it. I'm just floored by both.
