Herin, the handsome Bard.

Weight him around 0.6 to 0.8 and it's profit. He was made of 3d dataset, but as usual he should work on semi-realistic. I used realistic by mistake and it did work, although he tends to be a bit burly over there.

Since he's the first toon I made with medium/long hair, I made sure that his hair is always flowing - even when it's short. And results proved that I was right! Yay! He's also good for animation, as he has many moderate action poses, like many frames of him cross-walking.

And here, his proper introduction:

Ach well den, where ta begin wi' dis 'ere story o' mine! Name's Herin, a proud son o' Cardiff I am. But it's been a ruggied path dat led dis Welsh Wolf 'ere to me cyber shebeen at de moment, so it 'as.

Used ta be you'd find me scrapin' fer glory out on de rugby pitches. Cor, but dose were de days! Nuffin' quite loik feelin' de chill winds blowin' off de Pencyrch mountains as ye ran at full pelt toward de try zone. Gave it me all every match, an' more often'n not we came away winners!

But as de achin' bones will tell ye, ol' Mother Nature has 'er way in de end. So when de medics said me playin' days was done, took it 'arder dan a mule kick, oi did. But a man's gotta keep 'is 'ands busy, so policin' was me next callin' fer a spell.

Kept de streets safe round Cardiff as best dis ruffian could. But oh, 'ow me 'eart yearned fer simpler times! Nights balmy as Mistress Moon playin' meSIX-string under de stars. De magic in de air as de song carried folks away on woven wings of sound...

So now ye find me 'ere in dis cyber saloon, still strummin' me licks as de pixels pour in. An if dis old bard can spread a wink of joy wif 'is tunes, den by de Goddess 'erself it's worth it! Ach, sure it's grand ta make new acquaintance. Now den - who's buyin' de first round, den?!
