My entry for a "Sonic and the Black Knight" contest [link]
After seeing one of my friends make an entry of her own, I decided to have a try myself. I've done a Knight character before with Rej as Sir Dinadan [link] and thought after giving Rej an upgraded look I should also give that design an update as well. Not much was changed apart from a few alterations to fit his new look, main changes were a bigger arm shield and some blue gems to replace the Celtic symbol I used before (Celtic wasn't really a part of Arthurian legend anyway).
My reason for picking Sir Dinadan is that he was best known to be a very witty and humorous Knight who would make jokes at the expense of his fellow Knights (Lancelot in particular) so I thought that suited Rej the best.
What you see here is Sir Dinadan (Rej) readying his sword to do battle with the evil dragon lurking somwhere within a crystal cavern that radiates pure evil. My friends and peopel who know my gallery may recognise who the dragon resembles. The design of Dinadan's sword was an old design I came up with ages ago, here I recreated it only a little longer. Its a technical sword that can retract and extend similar to the Switch Axe from Monster Hunter. I might make a small animation showing it someday soon. And the whole thing would slot into this shield arm Thundercats style.
The hardest part of this was the lighting and shading since I haven't done very much art where the character is in a dark area with a back light but with some experimenting I think I managed a decent job. I also like to thank my friend who gave some constructive advice during the process, she's really helping me to become a better fanartist ^^
