Ancient Chinese Soldiers
These are my artwork I did when I was serving my national service. They are designed using Han Dynasty armour with a bit of simplified armour design. Using blue as the armour was to give the viewer the feeling of security and justice. I am not a artist, but I do like to draw little cartoons during my free time.
If you have watch the TV Drama, Han Wu Da Di ( Great Emperor Wu of Han ), will understand alot of Han Dynasty's inventions, technology and philosophy.
I also drew a Chinese General and his wife. My posing skill is very lousy, so they all stand straight.
Recently I saw a article on Battle of ZhiZhi during Han Wu Di's reign, during the battle against the Xiong Nu. Xiong Nu Chieftain has a troop of mecenary that uses a formation similar to Roman's formations. After winning the battle, these mecenary is captured and brought back to China. Han Wu Di order building a city Liqian ( Roman Empire name in Han Dynasty ).
