Arthur later in his life, perhaps before the Battle of Camlann.

Update: Here is a more recent rendition of Arthur: [link]. There are still certain things about this one that I prefer, but it is fun to look back and see how far I've come.

Your castle is very much in the Spanish heraldic style. Do you study heraldry as I have done for 50 years?

Thanks, I'm glad you like it, but I really ought to do another Arthurian piece. This one is kind of embarrassing to look at after all this time.

You're welcome! How's it embarrassing? Maybe you could do Arthur's killer, Mordred the Murderer (that's what I like to call him)?

His whole look is awesome, from the 12th century style mail and clothing, down to the leather shoulder guards. It looks appropriately historical and mythic, just how Arthur should look.

I love how simple Excalibur looks: not prettied up with weird shapes or anything. It's just a simple, extraodinarily powerful blade. His missing scabbard is a nice touch too, which means this would have been him after Morgana stole the sheath?

Wow... Someone knows his Authurian history. I'm impressed! There's so many people who don't even know Excalibur from Caliburn, or their Lancelot from their Percival.

Well, thank you for the compliment! Though to be honest, there are enough stories in the Srthurian cycle that you could mix up any of the names and random and find out some other author (Chretien de Troyes) has already done that :P
