This dude is an assassin in a Wuxia martial-arts fantasy world I was putting together, likely one of the 999 Murderous Disciples (though maybe an "independant"). He's sometimes known as the "Shoe Collector", although he himself goes barefoot. Why the nickname? Well, if you've ever seen Tsui Hark's elusive revisionist kung-fu movie THE BLADE, you can probably visualise very well how he uses those short, heavy blades in a fight. ;)

Okay folks, I've fixed this one up quite a bit, just like I kept saying I would (and never figured I'd actually get around to doing). This is heavily tweaked now... I cleaned some stuff up, added some contrast and tonalities, even changed his proportions a little (I love photoshop). Hopefully, it addresses the complaints above somewhat. I'm mostly happy with it now. :)

Nice sketch man...yeah that left blade DOES look funny but it's a cool character plan all the same!!

He is cool and totally cute.

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "Of course he's cute! He actually belongs to an assassin boy band... he's "the Rebel", can't you tell?... his hat is on backwards. "

Nice islander warrior pic. Yeah, that off center handle thing would likely throw off the balance of the weapon.

:-) Zachariah Campbell replies: "I really need to fix this one up... sigh... 2"
