PokeWest - Rico Vale

Commissioned linework from [link]
Colouring job by reikovalour ... Oh me again.

Yup Reiko done up for PokeWest, however he has the original spelling of his name as Rico (The artist forgot, sadly I can't replicate it with simple OpenCanvas tools). Little tribute to the character created from the American buying up of Both Fistfuls and The Good The Bad and the Ugly. Clint Eastwoods famous Man with No Name, despite him sporting a name. Rico making better use of the 'Blondie' Nickname from TGTBATU.

Exceptionally fun thing, those guns, while the blades are exaggeratedly longer than they should be, are based on real weapons that were created around the time of the old West, plus they fit in perfectly with his style of combat.

So yes, second PokeWest piece and quite a number it is too.

Description:

Lone Wandering gun-slinger. Born to an outlaw and a brothel whore Rico was soon found carted off by problems and crime very early in life, never entirely noble but he knew right from wrong and made sure to keep things balanced. Then one particulary sucessful bank job and the gang he ran with decided splitting it six ways just made it too small a haul. Beaten to his knees and a sawn-off shotgun used on his skull removed both the spark of his personality and the Charmeleon horn.

With all that trauma and an obvious goal for his immediate life the Wanderer set himself out for revenge to exact in whatever way he felt like.
