Blade
Undying Swordsman
Overview
Dark red and black layered robes with an open chest, bandaged arms, and long black hair with crimson streaks. His scars and the blood-slick sword are the identity — the whole build should read weathered and self-destructive, not clean.

The look
Blade's classic visual identity is built around dark clothing, sunglasses, a long coat, and his distinctive bald/close-cropped appearance. His comic design has evolved considerably across decades, so the exact version should be selected before sourcing.
Base costume
- 01Long Dark Coat — The coat establishes the classic vampire-hunter silhouette.
- 02Dark Shirt — A fitted dark shirt creates the foundation underneath.
- 03Dark Trousers — Maintain the monochrome appearance.
- 04Boots — Heavy dark boots complete the look.
- 05Sunglasses — One of Blade's strongest recurring visual identifiers.
Character details
For Blade, I'd separate the classic comic-inspired design from the 1998 film design and the later modern comic styling, because those have meaningful silhouette differences.
Hair / face / makeup
- HEAD: Blade is generally depicted with a bald or very closely cropped head depending on the era.
Props
- Slim curved sword with a red-toned blade finish
