Tag As FavoriteComment		This was one of my first L5R characters (also depicted with his wife in "For Love of Honor"). His name is Ketsudo, and he began his life as a peasant. At some point, he served under the Lion Clan as an ashigaru, and distinguished himself in battle, turning the tide of the conflict and saving many Lion samurai lives. He was made samurai as a result of his actions, but turned his back on the Lion Clan, and became ronin, instead. Eventually, he would once again save many samurai lives. This time it would be those of the small Hare Clan. But in these simple samurai he found the peace and nobility he found lacking in the Lion, and accepted the Hare daimyo's offer to join the clan.

No comments yet?? Then it is about the time there came a first comment....Is it not custom to do a dance in this occasion? I am not a good dancer ^,^
To the point now: This is an awesome picture in my opinion! It is full of fury and dynamic. The way he swings his two swords......*sigh of admiration*! Anyway, I love your ronin, and his story as well...2

Great work! the Face shows a lot of details, and Propotions also do fit. The picture has a good depth, but I dont see the dynamic in the picture like Osuke does. I see it more static.
