Finished at last! This piece took a little over 20 hours across 3 weeks. I’m rather happy with the final result, though I intend for my next piece to be much simpler.

My goal with this piece was to utilize abstraction in the background in a more-intentional way; I believe I have accomplished that here; though I don’t feel I achieved quite what I’m aiming for, but I’m moving in the right direction.

I really enjoyed studying the weapons and how they connect to the baldric (shoulder belt).

Here’s a close-up to show more detail.
