Artist's Comments

Abaddon is a hebrew word used to describe destruction. He is also leader of the army of huge locusts in the book of revelation, and it is not known whether or not he is an angel or a demon. He is the angel of the bottomless pit. I think he sounds interesting.

Yes I have used the Abaddon font, thought it was fitting....
Plus it's an awesome font!
Yeah, that guy who made Abaddon is truly skilled.
In fact, let's just forget about my work, and let's just respect the craftmenship that went into the font, ah, what a great font......

Oooh... very cool. ^-^ The color, whatever that'd be call, is all kind of dark like. So it gives that cryptic kind of feel. And yes, the font is very cool. I shall have to use it some day now.

Interesting story, though i do see a lack of connection between the concept and the piece itself, as the picture itself seems to depict a gateway of sorts rather than the corporeal or spiritual incarnation of the fallen angel.

Yeah, I know, it's just that I couldn't be bothered drawing this awesome angel only to scan it in with my crappy scanner and have it look horrible on screen. Thanks for the comment though. Abbaddon is the greek word for destruction, and is often mentioned in the Bible alongside with sheol, which is the gatehouse for hell. I learnt that he was actually a demon, maybe even satan himself.
