search for the right portrait: a half-orc dual wielding axe fighter.

[dehro]

pretty much what it says on the tin.

I'll be playing a new character soon, and would like to find the right image for him
he's a rather civilized half-orc veteran soldier...young and with abismal charisma.. he wields two battleaxes.
so far I've found these 3 images.
all of them have something of the character
the "full" orc, rather too brutish

the one that just makes me laugh but is rather well equipped

and the smartly dressed and rather more dignified, but only marginally orc-ish

all of these have something of the character, but are not quite it.

so.. the question is: have you encountered an acceptable rendition of a dual wielding half orc in your prowling across the web?
so far my google-fu is letting me down.

I really love that third one. I haven't come across any cool ORC images necessarily, but the first volume and a half of "Warlands" was an awesome fantasy comic that you could maybe draw some inspiration from. Although I, unfortunately, have some mixed feelings about Pat Lee…

sadly, my skills with a pencil are limited to signing my name at the bottom of cheques.
I'll be looking into it, but I'm really fishing for an actual image...I believe in the power of Google, and somewhere out there on the web, is the perfect picture for my character :smalltongue:

this here would be phenomenal, if only she were a dude

Edit: the stupid link works now:smallbiggrin:

Maybe you don't need the full picture, just a portrait, that way you don't need to find something as specific as dual wielding battle axes.

the first one is awesome..especially since he's actually born into slavery..

this one is several kinds of awesome, if a teensy bit too feral for my character.

that said, I should have updated matters.
the search is complete..and the dual axe wielding, as awesome as it is going to be, is for higher levels..until then the character will be using axe and short sword (so pretty much like it is in your image)..
except I've gone with this:
http://sitb-images.amazon.com/Qffs+v35leqNb0Jbql4YqQEzH1zkinCKn4vBPJ5+MxFpEf1STn icHVpwMLkPPwQAwhich I only just now found out to be a cover of a book.

@Serpentine.. I only now read about your offer... and thanks, but I didn't want to saddle anyone with actually drawing a picture of a character..especially since it's a sparkling new one, not one I've played for a long time.
