Description
EDIT: wrote an awesome fan fic for Matt! Go check it out! [link]She's awesome 8D
It almost didn't let me submit this. o.o;
Anyway!
This is Matthew, my entry for the Modern Assassin contest. It's actually a spin off of an old character of mine that needed to be revamped anyway (so after the contest I'll probably draw him again)
Matthew was adopted and raised in the ways of the Creed. But while assassintating people makes the world a better place, it doesn't pay the rent, so he took a job as a pizza delivery boy, much to his parents' chagrin. They often tell him that a true assassin doesn't need a second job. XD But the pizza delivery gig has its perks, since he can get into places fairly easily with the whole "someone in this building ordered a pizza!" schtick. 8D
He got the job through a friend so...no ID needed!
Matthew mostly uses his hidden blades, though he has a wire in the bottom of his backpack that he can use for silent kills and to set up traps (trip lines, etc.) His hidden blades are made from polycarbonate so they don't set off metal detectors, and they are disguised as arm guards.
He can use throwing knives, poison, etc. but NO GUNS, since they're harder to hide especially if they have a silencer on them, and without the silencer they're way too loud. (plus he wouldn't be able to get a liscence)
He used to have a bike that got stolen, so now he has to run everywhere, but hey, he lives in a big city full of congested traffic and he can free run, so he probably gets around faster, anyway.
I tried to base his outfit using the colors and shapes from Altair and Ezio's outfit, so the white hood, of course, and the red suspenders from his work unifrom that he never wears properly act as the red sash (because a real red sash would be conspicuous). The jacket signifies that he's not a master assassin yet. I wanted to make his shoes brown, but...it didn't work out, so they're grey instead.
Oh dear, word vomit. And yes, I know, the shading is terrible and looks like a four year old did it. XD

Downright cool. It's hard to take an assassin seriously when they wear so much white and generally look so conspicuous. But honestly, the pizza delivery guy was a nice touch. A lot more unsuspecting and gives him an excuse for looking so obvious. The suspenders acting as a sash was a really nice addition. That's some clever thinking there. And plus, polycarbonate blades were also a good touch.
This is an interesting idea and is pretty feasible for an actual game entry, too. Very nice, Aki.

Nice idea for the polycarbonate blades
I love the idea of the modern Assassins, I really like that you kept the colour scheme the same with those subtle red belts
Nicely designed I'm itching to make my own!

So, I was revisiting this because I'm judging the submissions haha and I had to do this.
________________
Matt rode in the slow elevator with a pizza in hand, passing every floor of the skyscraper of the largest insurance provider nationwide, itching to arrive at the top floor to make his delivery to one particularly corrupt CEO. Finally, the car stopped and the doors opened, revealing a large, eloquently furnished office. A large, burly man dressed for business was sat behind the mahogany desk at the far end of the room, fingering a crystal templar-cross paperweight. Matt shifted his weight nervously.
"I have a delivery for 1298 Mi-"
"I don't know sent you here son, but that is not mine. Leave." His voice was harsh. Matt swallowed.
"Sir," he said quietly, his voice trembling, "I-I'm sorry, Sir. I just can't leave with-without someone paying for this pizza. My boss isn't the most understanding man and I'll l-loose my job." The man attempted ignoring the delivery-boy, hoping he'd give up and leave him in peace, but after ten minutes, he finally looked up at the young man stood sheepishly across the room from him. He shrunk back at the dark gaze, and the CEO chuckled, something that came out as a low growl.
"If I pay you for the f*cking pizza, will you get the f*ck out of here?" he demanded. Matt nodded towards the dark persian carpet below his muddy shoes, and he heard a chair scrape against maple floorboards, followed by the heavy thud of the elder man's steps. They stopped inches in front of where he was stood. He didn't dare look up as the CEO took out his black leather Gucci wallet, and decided to count the number of stitches on the man's matching shoes. "How much is that damn thing?" the man demanded.
"Fifteen-thirty." Matt replied, slowly looking up at the man who was too busy searching for a 5 dollar bill amongst all the 100 bills that stuffed his designer wallet to notice the smirk that slowly invaded the face of the seemingly innocent pizza delivery boy...
-----------------
I'm sorry. I don't know why I did that. It probably has something to do with the fact that it's almost 5 am and I haven't slept o.o haha and the fact that I love the whole pizza boy thing
Sorry again!

This is great! I love how you came up with what material the blade would be made of to not set off the metal detectors, very detailed

Awww he's cute and I'd really like to see a redesign of Mercury (I assume that's the Matthew character you were talking about) I wish they made real hoodies like that it would be awesome and I would so buy one.

And you really put thought into the hidden blades by making them polycarbonate. A true modern assassin couldn't get away with metal hidden blades now a days! good job
