OC Redesign: Tristan

Tristan Crownsworth was a character I created and played in the early 2000s.
He was a realtively simple character, the stereotypical knightly dudley-do-right with shimmering sword and good looks. I don't remember much details about his background and origins, if not that he carried a fabled blade known as Sword of the Rose that anyone wanted and so he was constantly challenged in duel by those who wanted to claim it for themselves. The sword was actually a rather mundane blade and it was the fun part.

The original character would have had the face of Chris Martin of Coldplay. However, since I was not able to draw it at the time, I covered his face with a helmet and then went around telling "that he had the face of Chris Martin". In the new version I tried, as well as adding detail, to finally give him a face that resembled what I had always imagined.
