Hmm... The only thing I might would change about it is his right hand. I dunno why, but the way he's holding his right hand just looks awkward. (Also, did you intentionally make him left-handed? Just curious.)

Actually you're very right about that. Imagining his hand in a different position does make this pose feel better.

The sword in his left hand wasn't an intentional choice. I was mirroring the drawing back and forth to help avoid distortion, and I guess it just happened to end up this way heh. Was it specified Martin the Warrior wielded with his right hand? If so, I can try flipping it the other way. =)

I don't recall. It's been a long while since I've actually read the books. But don't get me wrong - I have nothing against lefties. I was just curious if you did that intentionally or not. And either way, his affected hand seems to be held awkwardly. Mainly his shoulder - I feel like that shoulder oughtta be a bit lower, even if he's holding his hand up.

Well, if you're a warrior who learned from a warrior, one would be good with holding a sword in both hands. I suppose it would be one arm which would be a bit more stronger than the other.

Well, from the poses I see of Martin on Google, there is a majority of ones of him being right handed, even the cover of the books have him right handed. Ah well.

Cute ^^ What other Redwall characters have you drawn?

Well I've posted the other two I've drawn now! I think next up is going to be a goodbeast of some kind. I haven't decided who though. I want it to be a species I haven't drawn yet so far.

Interesting

Curious, he was a mouse, yet so many draw him with paws and not claws.....

That's how he looked in the animation, but I get what you mean. xP Maybe I'll do something more accurate when I redraw him!

I LOVE Martin. He's probably my favorite of Jacques' heroes. A victor, but also a slightly tragic figure.

Yeah, definitely! I didn't see the ending of the book coming. It was quite brave for Brian Jacques to not do a perfect, fairytale ending.

Yes, I agree that the pose is a bit off. It looks unbalanced, not as dynamic as some of your other ones. The sword is also a bit too small from the looks of it; I think that's more what it would look like in Tagg's hand, small, but it was always said to be of decent size for a mouse. I like what it seems you wanted to do with the expression, but I don't really think you quite reached that: he looks determined but unsure, which doesn't really match the pose it seems you were going for either.

Just my thoughts though. Not your best, could definitely better, but still decent :3

Yeah I agree with you. He's such a huge figure in the books, so I felt unsure about posting this. He deserved a better drawing.

Ah well, I'll get it right someday I guess. =P

Your characters are getting better and better!

Thanks! I hope so! x) I'm not improving as fast as I'd like to, but I'm glad I getting somewhere.

I'm*

I am that is. <3

LOVE his face expression! You'll be a great animator one day. ;3
