...very nice. I like the fact he uses Northern European styled swords instead of the all too ubiquitous Katana/Wakasashi combo most runners carry (OK, KK uses them but she actually trained under a bushido master).
a few small points...
Looking at the hilt I would say that is at least a hand & a half (if not full two handed) blade he is pulling. The angle is a bit tricky but a blade of that class would be rather long. I actually knew a smithie back in my SCA days and handled a number of blades he forged [Yes, forged, with a real edge, not just stamped out. These were very expensive and required commissioning several months in advance with 50% paid up front]. Placing the tip of a hand & a half on the ground and my hands on the pommel, my forearms were nearly parallel with the ground (and unlike my namesake, I am not short). If this is a "longsword" class weapon, then the hilt would be about half as long.
Also for such a long blade, the sheath would be more vertical so as not to stick out to the side and catch on things.
Customarily worn, the short sword he has would hang off a belt (rather than at his back) on the side opposite to the hand he would hold it in.
Otherwise looking very good.

just as an explaination, I didn't have a whole lot to go on for Shev. I took a gamble on the two swords. The sword on his back is a Bastard sword, or hand and a half sword, there again another gamble. I have a friend that used to work for arms & armor (u sometimes see these guys at the REn Fests) in our years as friends we've had debates as to how these should appear in drawings. Here I went with a mid-back sheath, for a bastard sword this is a hard sheath to draw from unless the sheath has a pivot mechanism so that the blade clears the sheath when drawn. I also placed the short sword on his back instead of the hip because he is supposed to be a Stealth adept. I took this to mean that any weaponry he carried would have to reflct that, in my opinion it would be harder to be quiet with a weapon that hanged outside the bodies profile, true that this not a traditional way to carry a western style short sword but I surmised that this guy is not about tradition he is about stealth.
The armor is leather and is suppossed to be Form-fit with style, probably the only thing that would set this guy apart from Joe-Blow. Aside from the swords.
I agree with all of your points, just thought I'd offer insight into what I was thinking when I started this drawing.
Thanks for the comments.
Hopefully Shev will grace me with a comment so that I may continue or make changes.

...that's cool, Didn't know if he gave you additionl detais via PM.
That makes sense for the Short Sword since yes, it would make more sound when worn at the hip.
Shev
Jun 26 2007, 04:27 PM
Awesome job! About the only nitpick I really have is with the hair. I think Shev (unless he's trying to look like someone in particular) usually wears his hair just straight down, in a total lack of style. It's sad that this is the best example I can think of, but think Peter Parker in his "I'm a jerk" phase of the new Spiderman movie, when he starts wearing his hair down. Just without the emo

But yes, awesome job!

Oh, by the way - are y'ever gonna get 'round to those equipment sketches? Not that I mind, y'know, I'd really rather see more of skate with less clothes, but whatever. Another one for the queue:
Bubba the Love Troll.
Yes, that's right. I went there. The running gag of dumpshock, lurker of every possible prison cell the player's male elf could get thrown into, from a Lone Star drunk tank to Hollywood to a Tir (Na nOg) quintiple-black max slam.
I'll give no specifications on this one, other than the name. Have fun with it.

Here we go again...
Raven
Elf (adept) female, age 20. Charismatic (kinesics and first impression), athletic, thief, face.
Background; former company kid who was left alone in the streets when her parents were killed. So young charismatic girl in the street of Seattle and she had to eat something... there was jobs like stripping, dancing, escort, joygirl...
But nowadays she is face/spec. op type runner...
Appearance: Long black hair (free or ponytail), littlebit native americanindian look, about 5' 9 and 122lbs (athletic dancer build), makeup maybe but NO tattoos, no visible scars (doesn't hide scars)
Wears usually urban jumpsuit when on run (but the clothing can be anything, showoff miniskirt, highheel shoes, boots, t-shirts etc. etc....) but when she negotiate deals she wears appropriate/convenient clothing.
Drives H-D Scorpion, uses Colt manhunter. Hmm ok she uses now also smg but semiautopistol is her mainweapons if we don't count her looks.

At least a lot of your stuff is on DA so in a sense you have something of a backup.

Hiya Holychampion,
If you don't mind adding another to the list, I'd really like a picture of the character I'm playing in Thomas' play by post game (Planitronics Penetration).
Description and name in the spoiler tag
[ Spoiler ]
Sarah 'Scope' Sneider
Brief background: Scope is a covert operative who in the past specialized in wetwork. Raised in a military family, she was a child gymnast who developed a muscular disorder and signed a life-time contract with Ares in return for the cyberware needed to correct the disorder. She worked first as a Firewatch Sharpshooter, and then graduated to black projects. She escaped her contract after the Crash 2.0, and since has been working the shadows, changing her alias from 'Gun-Dancer' to 'Scope.'
Stance/Personality: Scope suffers from advanced cyber-psychosis, as well as corporate brainwashing meant to 'correct' her emotional problems following her first mission of friendly asassination. She carries herself almost like a predator and has an 'anything to complete the mission and protect my team' attitude.
Appearance (this is her running appearance, since its much more interesting than the day to day disguise): Scope is a lithe and athletic woman of Germanic and Italian descent (she is fairly average in height, build, ect). Her hair is shoulder length (she either wears it down or tied back) and midnight black. The only obvious cyberware is an alphaware data-jack in her temple and her cybereyes - which (unless she is disguised) have an image of a sniper's crosshairs instead of normal pupils/irises. No scars or tattoos. If you want to draw her in combat gear, she has a datacable going from her datajack to under her clothing, is wearing a chameleon suit, and has a silenced Hammerli 620s in a quickdraw holster. Her weapon of choice is an old Walther MA-2100 sniper rifle with no visible scope - it shows its age and appears to have been through a lot of combat (having originally belonged to her father, a CASMC Sniper), and it has a large number of 'pips' in the stock marking 'retirees.'
Anyway, please have fun with it - attire can be whatever you want really - combat gear, her old KE uniform, business suit, or whatever - so long as it doesn't have a low bust, because she hides a scar from a gunshot wound to the chest. If it helps you decide what you want to do, here is a
short story that might help (and hopefully will be entertaining).
Thank you very much in advance

I'm sorry, but this has to be said...that looks like a 2070's version of Vincent Vega and Juels Winnefield. I'm half-expecting the one on the left to lean down and point that gun in someone's face while shouting "English, motherfucker! Do you speak it?!?"
...
...Please don't tell me you've never seen Pulp Fiction...easily one of the greatest movies ever made. I'm sure the trideo remake would be just as good as the original.
