Description

Stranglehold of fame is both tight and perilous. Nice old school rock tune to from Ted Nugent. This started out as a practice sketch and kinda blew up to be a color practice session too. Took me a whopping 5 hours to color. I dont know where i could be wrong in this piece, i'll leave it to the crits out there. As usual, i'll be taking critique but won't change anything. I'll try better next time.

The dude's name is Miyamoto Bennosuke, protagonist of our story being published in July. Check out our gallery to see Koden's first issue.

This is excellent the lighting is well done the color is beautiful. If you want me to find something that needs work I would say shine on the blade. I think you could of made it a little brighter along with the whole edge of the blade. Just a thought. Excellent piece it deserves all the <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/p/p…" width="15" height="16" alt="
