Triss (Warrior-Maid of Redwall)

My humble attempt at drawing Triss from the "Redwall" book by Brian Jacques.
Also my attempt to create an interesting and realistic sword, based on the description of Martin the warriors sword, given in "Mossflower"

I have included the description below, so that you can judge for yourself whether it is a good interpretation or not.

" Double-edged, keener than a razor, it lay glittering and twinkling, a myriad of steely lights. Its tip was pointed like a mountain peak in winter, the deadly blade had a three-quarter blood channel. It was perfectly balanced against the hilt, which had been restrapped with hard black leather and finished with a ruby red pommel stone and curving scrolled crosspiece where it joined the marvellous blade."



All comments much appreciated, as they will help me to build my skill.


Thanks.
