K N I G H T o f S W O R D S

The Knight of Swords is the brave hero who rushes headlong into conflict to defend his beliefs. He is blunt and comes directly to his point. He is domineering, a seeker, slicing through the skies with his sword and his wings. A storm gathers in his wake, borne of the turbulence his winged army creates, and he is lifted high above it all to pierce through the chaos. The sword is a beacon.

He calls out to the night's abyss:
Lift me up spirits of Sky
grant me keen sight of Hawk
swiftness of Sparrow
grant me insight of Raven
brave heartbeat of Hummingbird
bear me up with grace on wings of Swan
guide me with visions of wisdom from Owl

I really love this representation of the Knight of Swords. Original and still keeping true to the concept.

His expression is a little perplexing. Is he intended to have any obvious expression?

What an interesting and different way of rendering wings on a 'human'...

I'm getting so excited to see the rest of suites!

That pop of wine red on his clothing contrasts beautifully with the purples and blacks of the birds...great work as usual.
