Blast from the Past : Morrdha, Vampire Mage from Reaper

Almost exactly one year ago I have painted this miniature as a gift. Rather quick paintjob, done in one day. He is taking part in Ian's Newbold Reaper competition.
Two different backgrounds, but I think, that the first one is better. Probably because of better fit of base.
Text in the book says:
"VEXILLA REGIS PRODEUNT INFERNI
A.D. 2010"
Red letters makes  "VIESNA", nickname of my girl ( well .. almost. actualy it is Wiesna)
This is line from Dante's "Divine Comedy" and means : "The banners of the king of Hell advance"

 Blaaaaah!
