Sometimes I have to find an unusual solutions in my work. For example, I needed to depict here an ork with a sling. Sling is a weapon which I haven’t had opportunity to use before. I think many artists from time to time have the same situations. So I was starting to search the Internet for some tips. After hours of surfing I found this great man – Lloyd
He has a channel on the Youtube where he writes (or wrote, it’s been a long time since his last post) a lot of interest videos about “how to hold a spear”, “about bows”,“axes”, “katana”, “chainmail”, “shields” and many other stuff. He shows (what is the most important!) and explains with a good sense of humor many very important details about weapon and armour. For artists it may be a good mine of information about how hand (palm, neck, elbow etc) looks when a warrior use a sling, spear or other weapons, for others just funny movies.
