great art, heh although I hate to do this, but why is he holding a europian sword?
chinese martial art swords are extremely beutifull, they have a less "cross" looking hilt, and usually some sort of tail or trailer on the bottom of the handle to provide a distraction for the opponent...
infact here's a pic for you
anyways to reitirate, it is a very beutifull clean stylized picture (I love the style) and the varying line quality is beutifull
so I just had to find something to bag on

Maybe I'm paranoid... maybe it's you! |

Thanks guys.
Good lookin out sharhar2k, I wasn't too sure about the sword. Some Chinese swords do have a definate cross hilt, though. I drew the sword based on a sword that my uncle owns. You are right about the tail thing, also, but I left that out simply because I didn't feel like drawing it. cheers
