Description
Another pic done in the same vane as the Verkine one- for the portfolio. I have several variations of the character in the gallery so i decided to show the progression from armour wearing fantasy guy, to futuristic stealth guy to casual, weary hero guy.I also decided against the fire blade for him, rather leaving it for Verkine. I think a fire staff helps to diferentiate them, despite the fact that they're of the same race. It should also make the fights a bit more interesting.
I'd also like to add I'm slowly progressing in my art- I don't think I'm getting that much quicker, but the quality is improving in my opinion. This image was done with no reference and drawn on one layer (except for some of the lighting effects and background stuff!
By the way, the Japanese symbol on his back means 'Ruthless' I think (he does start off as an assassin after all!)

lol lunch money? He has developed a natural frown- it's his relaxed facial expression it would seem.
Nobody steals his lunch money and gets away with it!

I like the stage of evolution he has gone through to get to what he is now.
Btw where did you get the name Tysho Rojahn, and what does it mean?

Thanks buddy, he's seen a lot of progression over time. He originally started out as some kind of Emo- Goth guy... but that was a bit naff.
His name really was just random. Originally it was Tycho, but I believe that a name from Star Wars. Then I discovered that it was pronounced Tye-Co... so I changed it to Tysho as I thought it sounded cooler!
thanks for the comment!

Oh yeah, Tysho sounds cooler and japanese like. And best of all it's random. I came up with about two random names for my story as well, they were originally gonna be character names but I changed my mind.
But your welcome.

Nope. I try to keep things positive, especially recognizing that quite a lot of things that I would critique in any piece of art are totally subjective.
...and this piece is just really impressive. I don't know what could be truly critiqued negatively about it. (Someone could just not be into it, but that's not a problem with the art.)
I'm babbling.
It's just good work. That's what it is.

Oh yes! I love it! He doesnt look as well-equipped as in previous pictures, the only armour he has is a pair of greaves and wrist-protectors...wich is really cool, makes sort of a "I have my regular clothes and decide to make a difference" kind of look. Only problem is the staff not going the whole way to his right hand. Maybe it's ment to be that way? If its a spell of sorts I won't complain, but if it's a "regular" weapon I see no reason for it to stop so abrubtly. Love it though! Going straight to my favs!

Thanks there buddy, you'll be pleased to know his weapon is a spell...of sorts. on the upper part of his hand (within the wrist protectors) are small bits of metal that harness elemental energy- Verkine has them too, but his power is far greater than Tysho's. With these, the user can weild their chosen element- but doing so drains them considerably.
Probably should have mentioned that in the write up...
Cheers again dude!
