After reading the novel "Watership Down", seeing the animated movie and the TV series I developed a liking for the characther of General Woundwort.
I was particularly impressed by the way his personality was explored in the TV series were he was portrayed as a sort of Doctor Doom like character; an evil tyrant but with a certain degree of good intentions and honor ... at least, until his mind was broken after the destruction of his warren.
In the pic I imagined Woundwort as a Sith lord. But instead of a lightsaber I decided to give him a Sith sword.
In case you don't know Sith swords are objects that appears in the Legend Universe (no longer canon).
They were used by the ancient Sith prior to the creation of lightsabers and they were essentially blades empowered through the application of the dark side (more precisely through the arts of Sith alchemy and Sith magic).
These blades were much more resilient than common swords (they could even stand against lightsabers) and their dark nature caused them to become a sort of nexus of dark energies than empowered their masters. Although at one point the Sith started to learn how to build lightsabers, some Sith Lords preffered the use of the Sith swords, partially because of their properties but also because some Sith preffered the more real, visceral feeling of thrusting a sword in their opponent's flesh ...
Something tells me that Woundwort would have liked that too.
Altough the idea wasn't totally bad, this pic came really bad... still part of my art development though, so I'll add it anyway
