Description Another pen exercise. This time I did a double page spread to fit the large background. It's a continuation of my previous page[link]
Hope you like it!

Finally, someone who knows how to draw a sword and the correct hand positions!

I love the dynamic and the nuances in the posture - specifically the way you have her holding the sword, hands apart, traditional samurai stance.

Thanks! I was stretching a bit here. Trying to see how fast I could do this from concept to completion.

The whole thing took me a day to complete. Most of which is spent on composing the scene.

That's pretty quick, I'm impressed. Anyway, it's ten to six in the morn and I have a train to catch to London - speak soon.

My respect for your sequential artwork continues to grow.

by the way...what does "pero may pinag gayahan 'yan" mean?

It means "but (it's not original), It was copied from somewhere".

I'm constantly experimenting on different art styles, mostly inspired by other artist to find a style I can be happy with, evolve and make it my own.
Where did you get that remark?

RODCOM1000 In reply to s2ka [2007-01-20 11:14:57 +0000 UTC]

It was your response to when he commented "ganda nmn ng mga kulay.... haaaaay..." on Vindicators001 commission.
Usually my translator works on brief sentences but it translated these strangely and the meaning was unclear.

I know it's way off topic but I had been meaning to ask you and somehow never got around to it, sorry.

s2ka In reply to RODCOM1000 [2007-01-21 01:39:53 +0000 UTC]

Here I was wondering who said it, then it turns out to be me!
Yes, there are no literal English words for that phrase.
Translating it word for word will make it sound weird.
It should be...
"ganda nmn ng mga kulay"--The colors are beautiful.
"Thanks, pero may pinag gayahan 'yan!"--Thanks, but this one I coppied.
Tagalog sure can be tricky.

lol... you dont wanna know what my translator came up with...
I think i need a better one.
Being bilingual is so cool.
Thanks for setting me straight.
