I figured Azrael probably wore a different outfit when he was the practicing Angel of Death/Destroying Angel. This isn't final, however. Either way its kind of dumb to think he's worn the same thing for several thousand years 
I've seen several paintings of the Angel of Death wearing robes of this color scheme. I've been thinking alot about changing Azrael's sword, making it smaller/thinner. This too is not final. In fact this sword I drew here is kinda crappy. You can see the face styles for the angels changing here. Overall I've been putting more detail into the nose/lip areas of my characters, but the angels are going even more to the realistic side than characters from other worlds/stories. Which is fine by me. That fire came out friggin' awesome. Azrael is missing his scar because this would be him before the war in Heaven. It sucks that the hand I actually drew well is mostly hidden by the flames. To get the shadows and highlights on Az's face right I referenced several pictures of faces lit from below, and also set an Obitsu drawing doll over a lamp to shine light on it's face (better for tones as the heads are rubbery and flesh-colored, as opposed to the glossy and grey Art S. Buck models which I also own/use)

Did you know that Memento Mori means something along the lines of "Remember you are human..remember you will die"?
This is amazing, too. =]
One tiny crit I have is that the shading on the hand holding the sword seems to be off. The shadows should be more on the other side of the fingers, however, it's nothing big just something to keep in mind for future works.
The shading on the face, and especially the lips is fantastic, the lips look really full and work for the piece.
