The recent video by WoodenPotatoes covering the story of Shiro Tagachi sent me on such a trip down the memory lane that I just had to do my best to re-create this memorable villain from GW1. Since the condition damage is somewhat viable (not useless anymore) then running around with 2 swords kinda works now! Anyway, here is my attemt at Shiro Tagachi, a legendary assassin from Cantha. This look proved to be quite the challenge and I am quite glad about the result (especially using the mask of the silent to immitate his heavy facial scarring). Feedback and especially suggestions on how to make this even better are very much welcomed!

GJ!
It looks a lot like shiro. Using the mask this way is brilliant!
I think the gloves could be improved.
Its still a gold tho :D

Had quite a few attempts at re-creating shiro loooong time ago but the face i just couldnt get right and i worked with medium armor at the time (assasin class from gw1 was similar to thief). This just looks amazing!! As a canthan player I wanna say thank you for uploading. Gold from moi :)

Thanks and yes, assassin play style would be better, but I wanted to have the 2 iconic swords on him so I opted for a warrior. And hopefully, we will see Cantha soon, we have to keep the dream alive. :D
