This is from one of my sketchbooks. It was inspired by an image of
Randall Flagg from the television miniseries for
The Stand. There is a scene where Stu is dreaming of Mother Abigail and Randall Flagg is standing in the corn. Flagg opens his eyes and they are all red and glowing - VERY Creepy! I was trying to capture that same feeling that the image from the show gave me - Creepy half light with demon fire within. Once again I must apologize for the glare. Heavy sharpie just does not photograph well at all. :-(

Sharpie}
UPDATE:
Another
update from the Rescans. This is one that benefits greatly from the
rescan. When photographing the original post, I discovered to my
chagrin, that heavy sharpie reflects a flash like polished silver. No
matter what position I placed the image in, I couldn't get a shot
without some kind of glare. Here that issue is completely resolved. Also, the color on this one is just fantastic. It looks exactly like the page. Have I mentioned that I love my scanner?!?

I think the face photographed well enough to see the fiery glow and sinister smile. The thick neck and muscles also remind me of the creature in The Keep.
I never thought of that when I was drawing and posting this, but this image is very similar to the monster from The Keep. I need to find myself a copy of that. I've only seen that once when I was very young, but that monster gives me the heebie jeebies.
The lit up eyes also gives me the feeling of Mike Mignola's work. There is something unnerving about a dark creature lit up from within.
