Description
Another rough sketch of an original character from my current sketchbook. My Russian is very limited so if anyone knows a good name, I'm game! He is a vigilante and currently operates in North America. He is a very skilled fighter with great strength and incredible agility but no apparent superhuman powers.Related content

This is a fantastic design - the sketchy quality to the drawing (yes I know it IS a sketch!) really works with him too - like he's emerging out of a snowstorm or something.
I like the way you have worked in the Communit imagery too - Why do dictatorships always have the best uniforms?

Dude, this guy is tight! Probably my favorite of your characters. For a name (since he's a patriotic figure and could represent the Soviet Revolution of 1917 possibly) how about: Revolutsia (ΡΠ΅Π²ΠΎΠ»ΡΡΠΈΡ- russian word for Revolution?

Hmm, nice one B. I think that suits the personality I'd like him to have. Morozov was also suggested which is supposed to mean "of the wolf" I'll have to think about it and figure out exactly what his story is. I'm playing with the idea of his father and grand father either being super heroes or soldiers and his costumed persona being an homage to that tradition, but he is a modern day character. Thanks a bunch for the compliment and the suggestion. I'm glad you like this guy.

i love 'im! hes your archetypical comic book russian soviet bad guy! ive got tons of names, i dont really remember what they mean, but 'Vsesvolod Morozov' is a good one. im fairly shur Vsevolod means 'to rule all' and Morozov mean 'of the wolf' or sumthin. may not be the most appropriate name for an assassin type, but it sounds cool to me.

Yeah, I wanted him pretty recognizable as a product of the soviet union but he's not necessarily a bad guy. I think of him more as a somewhat patriotic figure and his costume is pretty much a fashion choice, I guess.
I kinda like Morozov. If nothing else comes up that might be what I go with.
Thanks! There just might be a sketch in your future.
