Sakai(left) battles Gemisha(right), a rival and rogue samurai. As you can see, the fight has not gone in Gemisha's favor.

I think you've become better with faces, that's also apparent in your other new picture. They look more real, and with good expressions. The poses here also look better, much more dynamic than in some of your older pics.
You said you liked some things in the outfit of my samurai, nice to find (I think) my breastplate, throat guard and kneepads again on Gemisha. And borrowing is fine, but didn't I tell you you should return it in one piece dammit! You're gonna have to pay for that crack in the breastplate 12 But seriously, if I had wounds like that I'd be lying on the floor crying. Those samurai sure are tough folk. Anyways, great picture.

:-) David Mitchell replies: "Yep, this is one of the three most brutal fights in Marbled Cake. Sakai emerged the victor, but he had also taken a massive beating. Even if Gemisha won, he still had suffered 3 (count em!) criticals and probably would have bled to death a few rounds after that. What makes this fight important is Gemisha is taller, stronger, faster, and more experienced, and yet Sakai manages to defeat him. Even if only by a thread. Never underestimate the power of the mighty kiai!!"

Tis but a scratch!
Your arm's off!
No it isn't!
Well what's that, then?
Merely a flesh wound!
Heh, sorry, but Monty Python just sprang to mind when I saw this. Great picture, and the guy on the right (Gemisha?) really looks like he's in motion.

I think this picture is great!!!
You did a great job with the samurai on the right, but the opponent on the left might need some work on the pose.
Don't you think?? F** U
*happy face*
