It looks awesome to me!

Wicked Stuff going on!

Your best work to date!! I just don't like the massive sword on the ninja, everything else looks very "realistic" so it's an odd touch, but still....great work+fav.

BTW, having had a longer look at it....

1 - the pose of the guy on the left is soooo perfect, from the expression to the hands, the flowing robes and belt, the way he holds the sword...

2 - the guy on the right has great sense of motion and focus, again perfect expression, I just wish he had a normal size sword

3 - the rain on them, on the foreground and on the ground, is amazingly done

4 - the integration of the shaolin temple pic in the bg, it's angle and perspective in relation to the characters, it's perfect!

This should be in DTF for sure, I hope more people will view it full size!

AWESOME! GREAT JOB!

Hello and stuff.

Holy crap this is so freakin good. One question though. How did ShiLuShui Tien get that little cut from a sword bigger then he is? I like the big sword but it is a little too rediculous. I love the stances of both fighters they are so perfect. This is much better then a lot of the stuff on the main page everone needs to fav it so you can get some recognition.

Oo action pack I really like the rain and the background you picked out for it. The coloring is so nicely done The blood doesn't look as real but sok still looks like a slit cut Reminds me of those sword fighting movies

1-Kudos in on the reflections and such in the water in the ground.

2-love the way you do rain. It would not suit too many styles but it does yours ^.^

3-Keep human anatomy in mind. And how the human body looks in perspective. The guy in the left, the arm thats behind him is way off. His shoulder would be a bit disjointed if he had his arm like that. My character and object animation teacher said the other day about on of my scenes:"Alot of people try to blame shitty character design(not that i think your char design in shitty ^.^) and perspective on forshortening"

4- The camera angle is mighty boring. try something more dynamic perhaps? Like stick the camera on the shoulder if the ninja on the right? That would be awesome.

5-On the rain-did you motion blur the riandrops? that adds a nice effect I've found. And try putting raindrops of smaller sizes in the back of them too to add more depth.

Overall your best work to date...loads of kudos to you kamikaze!

byeee!

Damn...! What can I say?
The guy on the left looks like he's about to bust out some wicked Tai Chi counter offensive against the crazy ninjas Garmungous sword of death. I guess combining ninja with a huge sword is the ultimate reflection of 'walk softly and carry a big stick.' How can you not view this full size? It should be on the back of every ninjas gi. The color schemes of both characters are vivid and well done, I love everything about this picture so much that I need to kick someone right in the face.
