Description Okay this is it, I finally went back and redid Nightshadow to how I think he should appear in the story. At first he didn't have a dragon's front and back tallon but seeing that I gave him dragon like wings, I thought I'd put them in just the same. Well, I do believe this does him justice as do the other draconic features I gave him. Enjoy.

I’ve had a brain storm with this guy. This is his form after having been badly damaged by his brother, who at the time, was extremely loyal to his Monarch before he became the King. A brutal battle between brothers and a few great swings of the axe, to his left arm and leg, robs him of his mobility and leaves him for the scrap yard until the enemy finds him, rebuilds him and accepts him into the Tauren Empire. His previous form will be featured as soon as I design it.

Very cool. I like the way you did the expression and various claws/spikes... and the wing! *would hug, but that might be a mistake...*

Thanks, he's gonna be a major player in the story. He's the one who plans all those deadly attacks on the citizens of Zylon.

aww the lion king is aewsome though. I used to watch it 24/7 for 3 years since it had came out. But then after the 3 years i didn't watch it so much. I used to be able to recite it without it being on. word for word

aww yeah that is a pretty good line. Well lately I been addicted to watching Final Fantasy VII: Advent children where I like kadaj's line where he says "See this man. He is our big brother but alas in our happy flock he's what you call a "Black Sheep""
But in the japanese version he says traitor which is funny.

Yeah they are. I can understand the japanese since thats where I was originally from but they don't translate very correctly when they go and make it english.

You're right about that. I found that out when I was watching Naustica with a friend. Japanese versions are better.

Yeah I only know that because thats' where I am from. I may be bias though because of the fact that the english versions are a bit different then what I was used to when I lived over there. Nothing was in English that I watched.

What's really funny is, that Japanse anime really translates well in Italian so the Daltanious series actually is given full justice in Italy. I have the entire collection on DVD plus the japanese versions. Great show really, must go back to watch it when I have time.

Yeah that is really neat. Don't know Italian I am lucky to know english for that matter. But yeah I hear it hard to translate other language into english though.

He's good at smiting Night Shadow, and he's never far when dastardly deeds are attributed to his evil uncle.

Thanks for the complement. I had to import it into picture it plus premium to get the transparency just right. Not easy.

In the story, he is the brother of the king of Zylon, Lord Axtar. Yet even though he's related to a king, he's not exactly a loyal and trusting robotic warrior. In fact, he imbezzles countless amounts of funds from the royal treasury and is quickly sited on it, forcing him into exile from the royal family. It doesn't phase him severely, as he comes to find a comfortable home among the enemy, the Tauren Empire. You'll be meeting them shortly.
