Nice work! A determined warior for sure. I like you're use of the spear in this piece. It suprises me how few are depicted in contemporary portrails of warriors when the ratio of spears to swords was (and this is a made up statistic) around 20 to one. Througout history the spear in all it's forms was unquestionably the most common of weapons. :+fav:

A big thankyou for the fav!!
Yeah, I just sat there infront of a blank page and she came out of it. I didnt have any control over whatever she was doing - I really liked the idea of a spear too.
I think your statistics are highly accurate on the situation though :P
