I am looking for a skilled artist to create 2 designs of a male character for my book.

Gender: Male
Age Range: Adult

Style: Realistic and Gritty (darker tones)

Design:
• A knight with worn and damaged silver armor
• A red cape
• His weapon is a sword that is relatively longer than the average sword. It has to two hilts and guards (look at attachments for example). He holds the sword by the middle hilt and reverse (backwards). The sword itself is also slightly worn.
• He has a small ferret on his arm that is partially mixed with dragon and has dragon wings.
• He is not a good person, and is constantly tormented by the literally ideation of his flaws taken form (the ferret dragon)

Background:
• A medieval town in ruins
• A few objects of the background should be on fire (you can choose which objects) and the fire from them should be the main sources of light in the design

Skills and Experience:
- Strong illustration skills, with the ability to create realistic and detailed character designs
- Experience in creating male character designs
- Understanding of the desired gritty style
- Ability to capture the essence and personality of the character through the designs

Deliverables:
- A few official designs of the character, showcasing different angles and expressions
- High-quality digital files that can be used for promotional materials and book illustrations

Timeline:
- The project should be completed within [the end of the week but can be extended if needed]

Budget:
- My budget for this project is [$35 but can change if needed]

If you are a talented designer who can bring my character to life in a realistic but gritty style, I would love to hear from you. Please provide samples of your previous work in a similar style.
