Bought this mask on Shapeways a few months ago but never got around to painting it. Mostly because I couldn’t decide on a color. Finally settled on the bright light orange.
This is Tohnorí. A swashbuckling rogue.

The shapeways mask is awesome, and Metru Green and Keetorange mix very well!

The armour and colours really complement the mask, nice job, and the system bits and gold is really subtle but cool.

Very nice! He even remembered the advice from uncle Garth from “Secondhand Lions.”
Never hold a knife like this,
But like this.
I cannot tell you how many times I see MOC’s holding knives wrong.

That’s funny because I just built another one that reverse wields its daggers. It seems like it’s a legit fighting style. It’s been a long time since I took martial arts classes. But I’m almost positive some of our weapon katas included that grip.
But tbh I just like it because it looks cool. Much more assassiny.

They may have. The occasional slash like that is alright, but long-term use is not that good. Your wrist isn’t as strong bending up as it is bending down, (try it, you’ll see). The effective use of a blade requires flexibility. This is doublely important for knife wielders, whose entire fighting style revolves around slipping through you’re opponents defenses. Holding like the bottom picture is more maneuverable.

That makes sense. From a technique perspective, the normal grip would be better.

Now that I think about it… he kinda looks like a power rangers/super sentai character.
