Behind the scenes

After making the main version of this image, I rendered an alternate, more detailed one from the front.

 Invocation (front view)

The idea came from one of the Michael Moorcock novels of the Elric saga. In one episode, the melnibonean invokes a powerful demon and the process includes tracing glyphs with his own blood all over a room and onto himself.
