oh man, Elyan, will you look at your phresh mofo face? man, i love that phresh mofo face. unf ♥

i find it really interesting that, while there seems to be a contrast between the badger looking calm and Elyan showing a slight anger in his expression, they still... look like they are one. really adore this style, too! (and hi, hiiii~ welcome to the comm :D)

Great work. I like your chainmail even if it must have taken forever to do. The celtic stylized badger is well done. We had a badger take up residence in a nearby field when I was a kid and my Dad stressed very much because of how dangerous they are. They certainly don't look dangerous though...and neither does Elyan but he sure had that look of determination on his face when he was out to get Arthur.

Because I was curious I did a quick search and found this out about Celtic symbology and Badgers....seems suitable. (you likely already know this :) )
"An animal said to possess unyielding courage in the face of danger, the badger was noted for its tenacity. In the Welsh tale of Pwyll's courting of Rhiannon, a badger was mentioned as a guide during dreaming. The Badger was symbolic of the fight for individual rights and the defense of personal spiritual ideas." (from thirdcoastrs)

Thank you for sharing.
