One of many pieces drawn for my Legend of the Five Rings game. This is a ninja retainer of one of the PCs.

Psh! WHat you talking about?

-speaks like a know-it-all empiral coutrtier-

Ninja's don't exist!

Kuni Izumi: Oh yeah? Than what were the black things I killed at the winter court neh? You'd belive me if I was a crane and not a crab!

I really like this ninja. I mean, I like all your work, you have a good style (or at least, a style that appeals to me), but this guy stands out as being particularly cool.

what are you talking about? Ninjas do exist stupid person! why dont you think b4 you speak.

:-) Sean C. Riley replies: "Why don't you "speak" a freakin' language? "b4"? Come ON. As for your ignorant comment, "ninjas don't exist" was a reference to the game, Legend of the Five Rings, in which ninjas protect themselves by popularizing the ninja "myth." I would have hoped that the context of the above comment would have indicated to you that it was SOME kind of reference, even if you missed that it was a game (a game mentioned in the description of this picture, I might add). I feel strangely compelled to quote you now: "what are you talking about...stupid person! why dont you think b4 you speak.""

this drawing is extremely artistic ^_^ I like the extra obi, and I like how you combine ninja and samurai together in some of your other works also.

By chance does your 'Lengend of the five rings' have somethe to do with the Book of Five rings? ^_^ that'd be cool.

:-) Sean C. Riley replies: ""Legend of the Five Rings" is a roleplaying game based on fantasy world inspired by feudal Japan (and some other oriental influences). I do believe the "five rings" reference originates with the Book of Five Rings, but not having read it, I cannot say for certain."

O_O.....wow.....I love it! I want that hood! ANyways....
i thought I would say something, though it may have little or no relevance at ALL...but...

Weren't ninja and samurai the same thing pretty much? I mean, weren't ninja samurai spies? From what I remember of World History class, that would be the case. So wouldn't it seem very obvious that there should be some samurai and some ninja aspects in this piece?

Just thought I would annoy you with that...I really do like this piece, it's amazingly well done. I just wish that I could do so well!
