Happy to share a painting for my worldbuilding from around a year ago. Besides adding a background I polished the character and changed the apparel a bit.
This is a Phoenician mercenary, inspired by the rich lore of sellsword companies from the Song of Ice and Fire book series.
Yutpan of the Black Oath
Phoenician nobles and merchant princes are considered to be the richest in the levant, having the purse to hire the strongest warriors in the region. The Black Oath is one of these sellsword companies, requiering their members to create armor from the gold coins paid in their time service to show their competence and experience.
