So I decided to redraw an old piece from 2009, a difference of nearly three years(about 31 months). Tell me what you think in the comments! :D

Introducing the Monkey King Enma, one Naruto's lesser known characters. He has appeared briefly during flashbacks and was also summoned during the fight between Hiruzen Sarutobi and Orochimaru. I have found it to be the case that fan art of this character is practically non-existent on this site, so I hope this piece will be a deviation from the norms associated with Naruto fan art.
Enjoy! :)

A drawing of a 13th Century Ghulam from the Seljuq Dynasty.

The Ghilman trace their origins back to the Abbasid Caliphate and were introduced during the reign of al-Mu'tasim, who favored them as his personal guard. The Ghilman were slave-soldiers comprised mainly of Turks, who were usually taken from conquered lands or frontier regions. A Ghulam would be trained and educated at his master's expense, sometimes earning his freedom through years of devoted service. These soldiers were required to marry Turkish slave-women chosen by their masters, but many seem to have also lived a life of celibacy.

Although the Ghilman initially served as caliph's personal guard, they were quickly promoted to high military command. These soldiers would eventually go on to hold great political power and influence. By the end of Abbasid reign the Ghilman had been grouped into whole armies and often served as elite cavalrymen, demanding high pay for their services.

These Turkic soldiers would later go on to serve the Fatimids, Seljuqs, Persians, Mughals, and Ottomans as well as starting a dynasty of their own, the Ghaznavid's of Afghanistan.


So I guess this is the first time I've attempted to draw chain-mail, I hope you guys like the job I did. Btw, the thing with the shoulders was done on purpose and doesn't need to be pointed out.
Enjoy! :heart:

Kiriban submission for my 100,000th pageview; caught by =ppgrainbow.

So, if I am not mistaken.. Mechapuff is supposed to be inspired by Craig McCracken's Powerpuff Girls. Requested as a waist-up portrait. I had to adapt the original design to match my style, I hope the end result is pleasing to viewers.

Materials:Made with Copics and Pigmented Ink; background and watermark added and created in gimp.

Tribal warrior of the Final-Jomon Period (1000–300 BC).

Although evidence suggests that times of dispute and aggression occurred during the Jomon Period (14,000-300 BC), the Jomon people were never involved in any large-scale conflicts or wars. This is largely attributed to the lack of a true political state in Jomon society. As such, conflicts would have been confined to the tribal level.

Warriors of this time would have been lightly armed and unarmored. Typical weapons would have included knives, bows, and spears. Weapons imported from the mainland would have also been used on occasion, including swords made of bronze or iron. Wooden shields may have also been used during this period.

The warrior seen here is depicted with a wooden shield and an imported sword of bronze.
