SciFi and Fantasy Art: Warrior

Another steel point inking. It's kinda scetchy, and the shading's a little off, but I liked his expression. I have to do a background some time, some orcs surrounding him or something like that! Anyway.. he's probably some sort of ordinary ranger for a wood elf society. Looks like a nice guy.

I think it looks like he's up to some serious mischief...The expression says it all. And what in the world is a Katana?

:-) Gustav Engqvist replies: "Of course he's up to mischief...name me an elf who isn't 12"

Very good pose and nice job with the sword....I wonder why elf's always carry around katanas ?

:-) Gustav Engqvist replies: "Thanks! And duh 2 Cause they're awesome.. "

*chuckles* My name? It's a nickname. Sore Wa Himitsu Desu was SUPPOSED to mean 'That is a secret', but my sources are unreliable. But anyway, I still love all of your work! ^_^ Add more soon, or I might go crazy! But... No pressure or anything... *Sheepish grin*

:-) Gustav Engqvist replies: "Well, I meant nickname 2 Anyway! lol.. I have some more work in the ticket queue, coming right up 2 Thanks again!"

A katana is a sword with a typically vicious curve... O.o Maybe I'm not fit enough to criticize, but I honestly don't think that that's a katana. Perhaps a thin two-handed sword? Bah. Ignore everything I say about swords... I've never handled a katana, only pretty much every other blade. -.-'

Andway, I love the inking! I really admire people that ink... Or at least, that ink EFFECTIVELY. You're now one of my idols. I won't pester you more than I normally pester people I admire, don't worry. Oh... And by the way... This elf... He's cute! Can you gift-wrap him for me?

:-) Gustav Engqvist replies: "Thanks everyone! Yes 2 A katana is a samurai sword, the japanese warriors, you know.. I wanted to make the hilt and tsuba like one of those, but the blade is more like a normal curved sword. Thanks again! And your name.. I took some japanese before, what I can make out is "Here is a hamitsu", but I have no idea what hamitsu means 2"
