Description
The hero of the first three Barsoom books by Edgar Rice Burroughs."He was a splendid specimen of manhood, standing a good two inches over six feet, broad of shoulder and narrow of hip, with the carriage of the trained fighting man. His features were regular and clear cut, his hair black and closely cropped, while his eyes were of a steel gray, reflecting a strong and loyal character, filled with fire and initiative. His manners were perfect, and his courtliness was that of a typical southern gentleman of the highest type."
Here he is with his long-sword, short-sword, and radium pistol. I also gave him a small knife for eating, shaving, etc.
I got some complaints that I rely too heavily on soft brushes, which I think is justified, so I decided to do this one entirely with the hard round.

If you answered this somewhere else sorry but do you know if any Burroughs books (even counting the non-barsoom stuff like the adventures on Venus) other than the first three are public domain?

The books describe them as single edged.
