death tribble Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. The next guy is my own character, who I used to play in Red Dragon Universe (aka RDU) game. This is Crusader, originally Intercept, who took over the mantle of the original Crusader (an NPC). In published Champions Universe canon, Crusader is the capt. America analog. Bit more to the character than that... My concept started as can I do a power armor character who is interesting to me... and can I make a cape work as part of that skill set. (The cape glides, with very quiet air compressed jets for a very stealthy power armor). Death Tribble so kindly comissioned me to do this, of my own character, for both me... and Neil, the main GM of RDU. The RDU website is here: http://rdu.wikispaces.com/ And here is Crusader These works are licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 2.5 License. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-sa/2.5/ And also commissioned for the people who saw the pic of all the characters and wanted to see a bit more or them done individually. So the Tribble stumped up the cash AND also asked the permission of the player and GM. My gift to the community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storn Posted January 10, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. For those interested, this is Crusader a bit ways back.

aylwin13 Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. More great work there, Storn (boy, you must be getting tired of hearing that ). I especially like Crusader. He was always my favorite of the Mavericks, although it's hard to choose from such an awesome group of characters. His appearance hasn't changed much from the black and white you posted on Neil's RDU thread, has it? Would you mind my using a slightly tweaked Crusader as an NPC (GM's character) for a fill-in game I'm going to be running? I'm pretty sure it will be based in San Angelo, and it would be cool to see what would have happened to John if he'd stayed in SA and settled down.

SteveZilla Posted January 10, 2008 Report Share Posted January 10, 2008 Re: Storn's Art & Characters thread. Oh crud. I knew I wanted to put some artwork up from before Xmas, and I just couldn't remember which one it was. I will put that up tomorrow. I've got these three for today. My previous drow picture inspired two more. One is for a modern-mystical campaign. The other is more typical fantasy. Maybe y'all can tell which is which, cause I ain't tellin'. Both are good. The next guy is my own character' date=' who I used to play in Red Dragon Universe (aka RDU) game. This is Crusader, originally Intercept, who took over the mantle of the original Crusader (an NPC). In published Champions Universe canon, Crusader is the capt. America analog. Bit more to the character than that...
