SciFi and Fantasy Art Character studie: Nomad warrior by Christoffer Fredriksson


	This character is suppose to be a wandering warrior with sort of a middle eastern look. He'll later on join the wolf hunters pack, and become a valuable allie and friend. I'm short of ideas for a background story, so this will have to do for now. Pencil and photoshop. Made in 2005.

10 Oct 2005	Damir Lesic	Loading... Wow¨!..This is just not right..No comment?..Cant believe it.. Armour is soo cool,yeah.Great job with colours,photoshop? great pic Christoffer Fredriksson replies: "Thank you! The armor is the high point in this piece for me as well. And yes, it is colored in photoshop - as you can see in the comment above the picture. "
19 Oct 2005	Trevor Mathis	Loading... I like this piece, however I have a few crits for it. The face is proportionately constructed but I'm not sure what those marks are between the eyebrows. Are they tattoos or lines depicting wrinkles? I like the armor it looks good especially with the shoulder plates. I think though, that the abdominal section seems to offer a little less protection. Most plate armor has a full breast plate which is usually left larger than the person inside to allow some degree of movement. But at least you left it studded and padded. Christoffer Fredriksson replies: "Ah, yes! Those marks are suppose to be wrinkles, as he is slightly frowning even though it doesn't look that way. However there is a tattoo on the left side of his eye as well. I didn't put much effort in to the face to be honest. It was mostly focused on the armor. I wanted to make a sturdy yet flexible suit of armor for this guy, and so I tried to combine different ideas like studded leather, plated armor, chain mails and so forth. I'm fairly pleased with the result, and thanks for sharing your thoughts! "
8 Dec 2005	Karin Eidrup	Loading... Wicked pic, I love his eyes, they're awesome! I really like how you make him seem really masculine, basically all my men end up looking very feminin. Heh, his glare is great, looking a bit like a soldier kinda wanting to hit something but knowing he probably shouldn't Christoffer Fredriksson replies: " Holy cow, five comments! Awesome! Thank you so much. I scanned your gallery once more, and I can agree that your guys look a bit feminine but with your skill you can, without a doubt, add more masculinity. They still look great though, especially the one with the wings. "
