The Gaidin are personal guardians (bodyguards if you like) to those lucky enough to afford one. They are skilled professionals and feared through out the entire continent of Darkside, Darkside being my fantasy world once aimed to become a dark Fantasy Roleplaying Game. The current posessor of the Dragon Throne i Gortar, lord Milligan III, is constantly surrounded by two gaidins (a darkling dressed out as a peasant attemped to take his life with a poisoned blade almost two years ago to this day).

I i do believe she looks sorta like Birgette would in WoT and i also believe gaidin came from WoT for you too? You planning on making an RPG using WoT systems and vocabulary

WoT : Wheel of Time btw

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Hmmm. It could be one of those subconscious things that pop into ones head when you least expect it. I'm trying to come up with another name for the job even as I write this reply, but it's not that easy...want a cool sound to it. Any ideas? "

Is that sword standard issue, or is it a personal weapon,
and which edge is the leading edge of the blade?

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "It's a personal weapon and it's the edge facing towards her that's the leading edge (that's the "sharp side" right?). "

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Okay then...another sword issue clarified. "

*been a fan of your gallery for a while now* Anyway, the drawing's great (what's the point in trying to find a more hysterical adjective, eh?), and I must admit, I thought WoT too. About the new-name, about Taltos - Hungarian folklore, combaters of evil, who have the ability to sense it? *embarrassed shrug* I dunno...

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "You have? Thank you Cat! A compliment like 'great' works just fine with me but it's always interesting to see what people come up with. Well, I had it comming when I decided to go with a name like 'gaidin'. It sounded so good at the time and I guess I know why it did now... *beep* happens! Oh, and thanks for the suggestion! "

Your girls are always so beautiful, and their sense of fashion is incredible! I wish I had the figure to wear some of this stuff as well as they do.

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "I'm glad you like them (and their choice of clothing). Maybe their outfits come in different sizes as well? It would certainly be bad for business if the tailors only made them in one size, but what do I know, I'm just an artist trying to make a living. "

When you finish your rpg,I would be very happy If I could have some access to some of your new sketches that would be included to it! Keep up the good work Nicklas!

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Of course Angie, you will all be able to preview my illustrations. Not saying that I will show you every single one, but a few of them could certainly be arranged. Thanks! "

This has to be my favorite of all your drawings. All are great but this one has something about it. her right cheek looks a little off or her hair is barely showing on that side but blends in to make it look misshapen.

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "Thank you Terra! I think it's the left earring actually (her right)... the thing that makes her face look a bit off I mean. "

Shes fantastic! I really lov her clothes, i dunno how u managed to design them so well. Just looking at her im imagining little senarios and stories, shes got character.

:-) Nicklas Lundqvist replies: "If you only knew how much words like those mean to a humble artist like me. Thank you! "
