This is a picture I did for a close personal friend of mine. She played a knight named Natasha on a mud called Age of Legends: Tales of the lance, and asked me to do a portrait of her character. I did my standard thing of looking through magazines to find the right sort of look to inspire me. You may be able to tell, this one is similar to 'Tori' of WWF fame. The armor and sword are based off of drawings of the armor worn by Solamnic Knights in the Dragonlance setting, since that is where the mud is based. The medium I used is something that's bound to get me into trouble with 'Serious' artists. I used my usual number 2 pencil on computer paper. I don't have a lot of spare cash to fling around, so I use whatever's available. Anyways, comments you have about this drawing would be appreciated!

This is very nice! I really like the armor. The only thing I think is wrong is that her forehead seems a tad too big. Other then that its great

You do armour so beautifully and realistically, i am awed. I admit i have taken inspiration from you when considering my own designs, however crude they be.

Hey - I was just wondering as I meandered through your gallery, maybe you could try colouring some of these master pieces? I don't know whether you don't for a reason, but if not, perhaps you might try it! 1
I reckon all your work deserves Mod's Choice! 12

Hey! Aren't the knights supposed to have mustaches? How does that work for the girls? Man, I'm really curious now...

The armorr is well done but it dosent look like she has much room in that breastplate of hers...I suppose you wouldn't go through the trouble of re-doing her just for that though. It's too bad you don't meet girls that wear armor like that anyways

Beautiful picture, and wonderful attention to the Solamnic engravings. Well-done!

This piece is truely outstanding. I have been searching for a very long time for inspiration on a tattoo that I want done, and this is the picture I will be taking to my artist!

Beautiful picture; reminds me very much of Elmore’s pictures of Laurana, but this picture is very cleary of a different character and all your own work. Kudos!
