Description This is a piece i was commisioned to do of Afro Samurai. I really had fun choosing the colors, to give it that nighttime kinda feel.

Hope you enjoy it Evan!

Painter IX-8 hrs

Everything is now edited. I changed the entire position of the blade, which i felt like helped the overall image. Added some bling, a ring and earrings and a chain, the charm is the symbol on the Hagakure Book.

Do you like using Photoshop or painter more. Im still debating between which one i wanna start training with, or would it just be best to use Both?

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

ChaseConley In reply to qiunzo [2007-10-11 16:52:26 +0000 UTC]
