Jason, Leader of the Argonauts

After Heroforge released a new shoulder armour that looks like ram's head but is for some unknown reason called "ox head" I got inspired to try and make a model of Jason, the leader of Argonauts who was on a quest for a golden fleece.

This is my interpretation. I based it on the pose of classical antiquity where heroes are often depicted with holding their spear in their shield hand, and the look of Jason from Rise of the Argonauts videogame released in 2009. This was achieved by actually having two arms aligned in almost the same place. The different kind of grip of shield and spear was covered up by the ring on Jason's left ringfinger.

Since there was no option to hang the sword on his hip I rigged it to appear as if Jason is resting his hand on the sword hanging at his hip. I used the double edged spear in order to give more of a mythic feel to the model.

You can find the link to the model here.
