So, i hope that i'll finish this GAC. Good Luck to everyone.

So my choise is Emperor Shirakawa, some real info about him:
Emperor Shirakawa (July 8, 1053-1129) was the 72nd imperial ruler of Japan. He was the eldest son of Emperor Go-Sanjo.

Some info about my design:
- Dark Samurai
- Duel Katanas
- Blue illuminating eyes

So, here is basic shape of model, i will create high poly version for normal maps, this is cloth shape, so there are no muschles on it. And ends are beveled out. If you want wireframe, i'll post it.

So, few hours of modeling.
One image is just a test, i think that this idea with blacked out part of face and blue eyes is good. What do you think?
Head is not finished yet, some details are still mising. Stay tuned.
