"Barbarian´s Blade" by Adam Crossan

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 1 out of 12 by Adam Crossan. ←Previous - Next→


	Whoever said the pen is mightier than the sword never saw this sword. :-) The guy is a werewolf warrior named Berenas and he's wielding a blade which may just be way too heavy for him. I might colour this soon. I'm wondering if the sense of weight from the sword is right? Helpful comments are most welcome!

1 Mar 2007	Raquel Tabitha Boyce	Loading... As a mime, I learned that the number one rule for simulating weight is bent knees. When we had to pretend we were carrying a very heavy object, we had to bend our knees as if the object were pulling our bodies downward. So, just as a suggestion, perhaps if you ever redraw this picture you can bend his knees more. Your picture made me chuckle. I actually have a picture in cue called "The Pen is Mightier."
18 Dec 2010	Anon.	Loading... Interesting picture, but he looks muscled enough and he probably should be able to wield a heavy sword. When the sword is too heavy for a guy like him, it mostly means that the balance is bad, not that he’s not strong enough (I mean, he should at least be able to lift it!). Also, I agree with bending his knees, it would definitely look better.
