Description This is my monk from World of Warcraft! The armour is a HEAVILY edited version of Tier 14 Monk armour set. You can see it here:

Here's his headcanon;
Feng Long was the unwanted child of pirates who sailed the sea. Cruel yet merciful, as a baby, he was thrown out into the ocean inside of a barrel, much like a note in a bottle, doomed to likely die, or if the spirits willed it, survive to live a new life. Rather than washing up, this barrel was collected by enthusiastic Pandaren fisherman aboard the Wandering Isle, and so this human became one of the first non-Pandaren children to be raised purely of Pandaren influence. As such, he was taught in the art of Kung Fu and trained as a Monk. At first, he was trained in Tiger style, but then in his age found art in drinking (more than just socially), and adopted Zui Quan; the drunken fighter style. He later incorporated that with the Pandaren's Black Ox style, and fought as both a fierce attacker and defender. Now a fully grown man, Feng Long has reconnected with his heritage as a human of Stormwind and fights for the Alliance, but cherishes his adoptive Pandaren family even more. As a gift for his mastery of 2 fighting styles, and peaking past his naturally gifted Pandaren siblings, Feng Long was gifted a very rare Jade-Green Tier 14 Monk set. It is his most precious personal belonging.

As far as the art itself goes, this is my first real attempt delving into intense lighting. I usually stay safe with whites and blacks for light and shadow, but wanted the Jade Green to be the dominant source of light, and therefore the primary lighting colour I'd depend on. This was both for passion and experimentation! 

Hope you enjoy!
