Help with a portrait

true_shinken · May 2016

Hello, folks. I want to try a new playthrough and I was thinking I'd run a kensai, which I never did. However, I wanted to do that with a black male protagonist. Couldn't really find any fitting portrait. If anyone can help me with this (bonus points if the character has cornrows!), I'd be very grateful.

Black male with cornrows... so basically like Valygar?

The first person that came to mind for me was this guy:

Could work if you crop the guns out, maybe?

Ah, fun. Finding fantasy art of black people is stupidly hard, but I've had this problem long enough to have a bit of a stash built up. I'll see what I've got.

You might be able to find something here: https://www.reddit.com/r/EbonyImagination/

Otherwise, have some pictures. Mostly nabbed from Pinterest.

http://fantasyofcolor.tumblr.com/ could also be a good resource. I've attached a zip with what I've got as well, which is admittedly not a lot. You didn't specify fantasy race, so there's a mix.
