These were done for Legend of the Five Rings, a collectable card game. Quite fun to play, too. I'm pretty happy with how they turned out, considering typical time restrictions. Let me know what you all think, what could be better, and what sort of things I should keep in consideration in my future work. Thanks!

Wow, spectacular! I think the first and last ones are my favorite. Gosh, the blood splatters in the first one are just chillingly real looking. Looks like she just chopped someone to bits. And the lighting in the last one, and texture of the fire is really great I think. My only crit is the water in the third one. It doesn't look wet enough. Looks more like snow covered peaks. And maybe the ribcage in teh second one seems a bit extreme, lol, but it kind of works. Again, these pics are awesome! |

Very nice stuff. Although I'm wondering if it is weird for asamurai type character to be using an axe? I'm not a war historian, and I haven't checked on the facts. I'm just thinking of that samurai stereotype that is using swords or a spear/polearm type of weapon. |

Amazing work, I don't even feel right criticizing it, but if anything the blood in the first one is great, except for the part of the axe right next to the blade, the color there doesn't quite seem right and I'm not convinced it's blood.
But very impressive work. ![Very Happy](images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif) |

Yay! Very cool work. I don�t usually care about warrior fantasy babe art, but this is just amazing. You have some taste! Nice. My fav is the first one. Very brutal pic with amazing details, such as the blood. Good compositioning. |

WOW! Amazing! I like the first one best I think. Oh and the third one, nice belly and armor.
I immediatly browsed through your site, and most of your work is really good.
The only thing I can say is to improve your lighting a bit, if you'd want to go realistic. It's already really good, but sometimes it doesn't seem to be totally right. |
