Torquil the Warrior


Torquil flies into battle on the back of his trusty gryphon. His task: to defeat the harpies and zombies that threaten the amatory delights of Cythera, isle of love.

A good warrior has to get in plenty of practice. Below are graphite sketches of our hero honing his swordsmanship. I may ink them later on, similarly to the sketch above. More finished pieces, suitable for print publication, will follow as  the project develops.

The composition above is based on a conic projection, as used by cartographers in making maps of large portions of the earth; that's why the horizon is curved. More on this topic later.
