There are a lot of changes between the original version and this page. Some things were cut, others were clarified. These are still the original panels, but re-edited and color adjusted. They were mostly over exposed as I was still learning. Rather than just having a line-up of generic archers, I wanted each one to be an individual. I wanted to do that with all the speak carriers. Most never have names but each one is different.
These were some of the first shots done so some figures will never be seen again. Their heads and bodies were changed so the brunette Barbie and the silver haired “Michael Jackson” archer have since been customized with other heads. The short blonde haired archer will appear again in another role. She appears later as Lorilnia the elvish ambassador to the court of Nasnor. So here she's doing her bit in the Nasnor Archers before resuming her duties as a diplomat. And yes, that is Belinda Brandon. She already existed as Belle and was cast as an executive producer of this “motion picture” with a small supporting role as Countess Orshia.
The dark haired woman soothing her thirst features later on as the good friend and lover of the main protagonist.
Yaaayyy Belle!! There's something fascinating about Berserkers to me... reading about them, it's hard to separate fact from fiction sometimes... May be why they make great additions to works of fiction!!
You're right. I went with bar-sark as bear skin and elite shield wall breakers assault troops. I've seen some very convincing reenactment with someone taking a running jump into a shield wall. You have to pump yourself up to perform like that so shield biting seems reasonable.

Berserker or not, they still ain't arrow proof!
