The Four Horsemenby ~Keithwormwood

Traditional Art / Drawings / Macabre & Horror

And I saw when the uniformed man opened one of the files, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four monitors saying "Come and see." I saw, and behold on the screen was a white horse: and he that sat on him had a rifle; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
And when he had opened the second file, I heard the second monitor say, Come and see.
And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great missile.
And when he had opened the third file, I heard the third monitor say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
And I heard a voice in the midst of the four screens say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of rice for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the coal.
And when he had opened the fourth file, I heard the voice of the fourth monitor say, Come and see. And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and nuclear fire followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with bullet, and with hunger, and with death, and with the infernal machines of man.

Haunting. Good way to rephrase the prophecy.

Reminds me a lot of the Judas Priest album Nostrodamus

Nicely done story, you're perfect for Lovecraft's style. And the art's not bad either.

Wow... I'm just struck speechless at such morbid beauty. The unique designs of each horseman and their places in the frames as if they were respected ancestors. The dead dancing around a launching missile as fire and smoke plumes forth, the image of a angel ironically and almost sacrilegiously emblazoned upon it. Even the presence of the horsemen's loyal steeds at the bottom... It's all beyond words and I perhaps shame both myself and you for attempting such.
