I used a fineliner to draw this. 'The Valdoran infantrymen is wearing platemail(in my design :-)), he is carrying a new design 'Y' shape trident, which are deadly agianst heavy armour and can swich in to a spear. They are famed for their discipline, and they valour.' I enjoy designing armour and weapons very much, hope you like it.

Just some hopefully constructive criticism:
1.) shield is pretty but a bit on the unrealistically curvy side.
2.)how does the Y shape have MORE effectiveness against heavy armor? won't it pierce less easily?
3.)there is no three. I cannot bash that much on a piece i can't even imagine much less draw lol

Very well drawn! and the spear is well designed for it's purpose the insignia on his shield is nifty. he seems able to defend himself. Good Job!

*looks at the amount of details found in this artwork*...*dies with amazement*

damned i've been browsing through ur collections for a while now...Spending at least 10 minutes over each and everyone of them...I am just awed by the amount of details in all of them..Even for the *sketches*.Also all your armours look sooooo real and practical(definitely not the stereotyped spiky and oversized one or skimpy one for female armour)
i myself is not an artist but when i look at your works ....How i wish i had such talent....You are truely amazing...

Wicked! Some of the best armor I've seen on this site. Except, why is the pole on the trident not shaded? o.O

Very very good. I liked the Valdoran Knight better. But this is still very good. I think the trident should be a spear and he should have a sword ant his side for when enemys get to close.

im a blacksmith in scandinavia, and.. were not that many10 and i make armour and swords and make well.. metall stuff..actualy i make money to.. i love my worck10..
i make my own design and to be honest i somtimes look on the internett to look fore som cool things.. sadly, therse isnt alot.. many arnour design are.. well.. not posible to do because of the mount of layers and shape and movment dosen’t fit.. this one does.. i love it... if i could get the chanse of making this one.. i would be stoked2

my last question is.. are you a blacksmith? ore have you been studding armour to shuch detail that you understand it? becaouse your armour rocks2
