Description I was supposed to have done this months ago for my friend Troy... this is his lineart for the card game Legend of the Five Rings. He gave me permission to color his sketches and maybe we could get production work with AEG making card art if we submitted some samples that they liked.

I think this is a Scorpion Clan assassin, but I can't tell. Troy says that the colors I chose do not represent any of the clans lol. Oh well, I could've sworn they were Scorpion colors.

thank you! he actually does love it, the color thing was just a lil something he said for my benefit cuz i don't play L5R at all so i would've felt like a total jackass if i continued to make up colors and such for all my L5R art XD

Amazingly done none the less, almost like you know if you ever ran your hands over those muscles, you would feel the power and sinew running like thick ropes beneath the skin. Delicious.

Well, your colouring is... amazing, that is for sure. I've looked at this bunches of times. Haven't really been able to comment though. And I suppose I still have very little to say. At least nothing of interest. I will just gush over the hair instead.

Normally, I am not a huge fan of white-haired characters.. But you coloured is so fucking well! The shine (which forms a heart at the top of his head!!!).. the smoothness.. I want to touch it.

And what an adorable nose. *pokes*

mr-mister In reply to strangledsiren [2004-05-23 09:42:16 +0000 UTC]

hehehe nose-poking! i normally make white hair that is too bright white, so i wanted to try a more sheen, silvery look. too bad i found out later that only the Crane clan have white hair and this Scorpion assassin was supposed to have black

haha! heart shaped hair head ^_^ that rocks socks.

you're colouring is fantastic, great atmospheric rendering and tonal variety, its fantastic. well rendered and realised.

only thing that confuses me is his (lack of) mouth or what is covering it.

other than that its fantastic, well done.

mr-mister In reply to wilbo [2004-05-23 03:53:52 +0000 UTC]

why thank you

yea, i agree about the mouth thing, but Troy drew him that way, so i just colored him as i saw it. Troy later told me that he was a Scorpion clan assassin and apparently all Scorpions wear masks (d'oh!) and have black hair

wilbo In reply to mr-mister [2004-05-23 03:55:57 +0000 UTC]

ah i see, well that clears some thing up. i also realised that i absent mindedly said "fantastic" about three times in my first comment (d'oh) so sorry about that, i was still in awe of your picture i guess

mr-mister In reply to wilbo [2004-05-23 03:58:08 +0000 UTC]

no worries i didn't notice that you said fantastic that many times til you mentioned it.

o_o Troy doesnt know how lucky he is for having you color that for him. This is just amazing, and its Open Canvas, too! Argh, such a painful program. ^_< This is absolutely amazing. You keep getting better and better! o_o Yeeesh!

My favorite part would probably have to be the light reflecting off of his hair, and how the background goes from a positive light, to such a dark black. It fits perfectly! Bravo! :3

Amazingly smooth work again..... your colouring is stunning! Is there anywhere I would be able to see the sketch?
The hair is just so silky, and the use of light contrasting with the darker bottom half.....very nice work.

Another highly deserved Fav! Well done!
