Wow! Do you know the name of the samurai?

I think this is the Great warrior Takeda Shingen of the Takeda clan. This is a great statue and the angle gives it even more power. Great picture

I never said I painted(my version) maybe I submitted in the wrong catagory,but I put in some of my own touches so it is what it is.

Amazing Photo. The angle just adds to his emphasis.

the funny thing was i took it as i was walking by, cause the rest of my tour group had gone ahead, so the angle was just a coincidence

Well, maybe it wasn't coincidence, but meant to be. Meh... who knows? Either way, it's an awesome shot.

That's not Oda Nobunaga. He has nothing to do with the imperial house.
That's the statue of Kusunoki Masashige, a famous guerilla master, who fought for the Emperor Go-Daigo.

Reminds me of that crazy horse that ate a kid in Brothers Grimm.....I guess that was a little random. I like that statue, makes me want to see Japan even more so than before.

I figured it was nobunaga because of the helm decoration.
Not a LIE, just a bit of misinformation
