Description
The Green Knight is a character from Arthurian Legend. He appears in several stories, and like many of the King Arthur stories, he is somewhat inconsistently portrayed. For instance, in �Gawain and the Green Knight�, he is a villain, yet in "King Arthur and King Cornwall" he is a hero. He goes by the name Bercilak, Berkilak, or Bredbeddle and is described as wearing all green. Sometimes, he even has green skin. There are quite a few interpretations as to why he is green, but generally he is thought to be a version of the Green Man common in medieval art. I gave his armor a more olive tint as a more pure green made it look too much like plastic.
This image was built using content purchased from Daz3d.com. The knight and horse were posed using Poser. The rest of the scene was constructed in Vue. Rendering was done in Vue. It took about a week (all that fog). Post production was done using GIMP.
