I'm amazed at what you considered "just a quick sketch" on another thread <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f631.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:"  data-smilie="9"data-shortname=":eek:" /> The lizard guy defenitely looks like something not to trifle with. And the set of pictures from your gaming sessions show wonderful character.Allright, you asked for it... <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f600.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":D" title="Big grin    :D"  data-smilie="8"data-shortname=":D" /> If you feel like drawing him, here's my (so far) oldest 3E character:Conaill U'Ciaran, Male human FighterSex: MaleRace: Human (proto-celtic)Class: Ftr5Body: well-muscled without being too bulky, ruggedAge: 18Height: 6'Hair: reddish-brown hair, reddish beardEyes: greyAlignment: NG (used to be CG, but pushed into becoming party leader [Wink] )Equipment: full plate armor, longsword, lg shield, greatsword"As he joins the party in the dungeons underneath Hirkon, he is barely 18---going on 40---although if asked he will probably pass himself off as 22 or so. His thick reddish beard and the scar across his left eye hide what would otherwise be a youthful and somewhat handsome face. He has his race's reddish-brown hair and gray-green eyes, and a skin that flushes too easily in anger or embarrassment---another good reason to hide behind that beard. In the heat of battle, his face will turn blood red and the scar swells to an angry purple. Combined with his 6 foot stature, the greatsword in his hands and his propensity for charging into battle shouting at the top of his lungs, he forms a very intimidating opponent."He's originally from a proto-celtic culture. Currently wearing parts of an orcish blackguard's suit of black plate armor (lacquered black, looks Roman in design), combined with a breastplate and helmet he crafted himself, with a lot of help from dwarven armorsmiths. Both may feature some very minimalistic celtic designs. The breastplate is fashioned out of "Cold Steel", a slightly reddish metal with minor anti-magic properties. The helmet is designed to frighten opponents in battle, and is banded with Cold Steel and tipped with two small Cold Steel horns. His MW greatsword is also of dwarvish design and made out of the same Cold Steel.He has recently acquired a warhorse and lance, as well as a magical large shield (spell resistance) and longsword (Holy), both of dwarvish manufacture.I'll leave it up to you whether you want to draw him with his greatsword (most common configuration up til recently), or wielding his new longsword and shield, with the greatsword strapped over his shoulder.Here's a picture I doctored up, based on a pro wrestling publicity photo (I think this is Triple H?). I swapped his sledge hammer with a greatsword, added a beard and a facial scar. I love the expression and the pose, but this guy is just a little too bulky for my taste...<img src="http://www.imagemagician.com/images/patrik/Conaill.jpg" alt="" class="fr-fic fr-dii fr-draggable " data-size="" style="" />If you're looking for suggestions for poses, here's a couple ideas from the campaign:- Assisting a dwarven smith pound a breastplate or greatsword into shape on the anvil. - Cleaving through a goblin and the worg he was riding on. He hadn't acquired the black full plate yet at this point, just a (hastily donned) breastplate and greatsword.- Riding a chariot, leading a band of celtic looking barbarians, some riding chariots as well.- In the underdark, edging across a ledge next to a pool of Grey Ooze. Everburning torch hanging around his neck. (The *only* light source our party had up at that time. Of course, it got dissolved by the ooze not too long afterwards. Trying to fight a Grey Ooze in pitch black darkness is no fun...)</blockquote>
