Description A young sexy Celtic chieftan. Originally this was going to be a drawing of the ancient Irish hero Cu Chulainn but I don't know. I like fur.

How Young were Most Celtic Kings and Queens, like did they have to be a certain Age to take Command First? Just Wondering, Since this Boy looks about 18 or so, and I wondered if they could be even Younger than that?

it varied considerably between tribes, sometimes it was age-dependent, sometimes it depended instead on completion of a particular rite.  If it was the latter you could easily have a chieftain who was in his late teens.

Any rock solid facts about the celts are hard to come by because they didn't keep written records. Their roman contemporaries said manhood was reached by age 15, with marriage soon after...so I think yes, a ruler in his late teens is possible. These are Romans, not celts, but the situation was probably similar.

Oh I really like this! He looks really handsome in it ^^ His clothes remind me a lot of what King Theoden wears in The Two Towers.

yeah it could definitely be Chu Cullain, maybe when he married Emer... Finery fit for the Hound of Ulster. I wanna see this in color! the detail really makes the piece.

Draw him fighting..cuz Gallic Celts liked to fight naked, at least to the chest. That'd be a nice piccy. ^_~

His underclothing and celtic facepaint is really neat, as is his brooch-thingy and cloak. It'd certainly make for a good myth or story, a chieftan younger than most.
