Description Zwei  (2013)

Created for Longship Armoury for their next upcoming limited edition "Legends Line" swords, the Zweihander. A reimagining of John Lundemo/Odinblades’ iconic Peacemaker sword, this Legends Line rendition draws on inspiration from early transitional zweihander design. The sword is planned to be 54” long total. Fittings for the Peacemaker will be in steel. This sword will be limited to only 10 pieces, expected to retail at around $2,500 with pre-orders opening up mid to late January 2014 - longshiparmoury.com/


This is probably one of my personal favourite characters of mine, so Im glad that Longship Armoury got hold of me again for another one of their sword mascots


• Painted in Photoshop CS4 with a Wacom Intuos 3.

Awesome but it would have been cooler if you put another handle in between the first handle and the double spikes on the blade.

really nice job sir the tinted colors, the meticulous detail on the outfit, the posture that adds personality to your character, and the range of elements that make up the piece as a whole. As always keep inspiring i enjoy looking at your art.

Amazing character design. Her outfit is really unique - very peculiar, without unnecessary detail. Anatomy and rendering look wonderful as well!

I am usually not a big fan of "skimpy female armour" like this one, bud damn you did a good job! I like the asymmetrical design, the colour scheme fits nicely and the details are flawless! Well done and keep up the good work!

Thanks a lot! Really appreciate you noticing that. She originally was supposed to show more skin (legs) but I decided it wasnt a good idea.

Gorgious !

However, happilly for the lady, her sword is not a japanese one!
Otherwise, the only weight of it would have made a jolly cut in her cute neck.

Despite my general aversion to the kind of highly-sexualized (and utterly useless) female fantasy "armour" - I mean, what soldier in their right mind keeps their chest, and thus vitals organs, exposed? - this is still a fantastic piece of artwork.

Maybe shes just that good and she uses it as part of her distraction techniques In the advertising industry, the more important aspect is an images ability to attract potential customers, not necessarily the practically of such a design in real-life combat, so I agree with you.

Oh I'm well aware of the power of the female form to advertise. It does sometimes irritate me though... especially when you make a sexy woman in practical armour. Nonetheless, it's still an awesome picture- keep up the good work.
