A semi-realistic fantasy painting of a muscular, ash-gray creature with glowing orange veins, sharp teeth, and tendrils, standing in a burning ruined city.

A semi-realistic fantasy-style painting of a Marvel-inspired symbiote anti-hero named Brand. His body is ash-gray, textured like molten rock, with glowing molten orange and ember-red veins running throughout. His form is muscular and fluid, resembling burning tar, with a glossy, semi-liquid surface. His eyes glow faint orange, and his mouth is wide, lined with sharp, Venom-like teeth. Dozens of fiery, tendril-like symbiote extensions flow dynamically from his back and arms, glowing at the tips like burning embers. The background is a dark, scorched urban ruin, still smoldering with hints of fire and smoke. The lighting is dramatic, with warm firelight casting dynamic shadows. The overall art style is detailed, painterly, and semi-realistic, similar to fantasy illustrations found in Dungeons & Dragons character art. Brand looks intimidating yet protective, like a chaotic good anti-hero. See more
