Hey, stunning!

Really like your use of colours and the perspective is fab. Nice!

that guy definately looks like he's about to get eaten, i got money on the dragon. i dont know much about japanese architecture, but maybe something extra in the background would break up the monotony of the bricks and add a little to the image.

You definately have a unique style.

I like the samuri's pose - good work.

May want to re-think the brick. Maybe bamboo, or some type of wooden walls to fit the subject matter. Then, again if you don't give a shit, forget it.

I like how the figures stand out from the background. Neat.

I called Las Vegas, the betting line is 3-2 for the dragon. I got 500 gold pieces on the Samurai, if anyone wants some of that action...

Greate Picture, Like the style and how the colors bring action to the forefront (if that is possible)

3 to 2 is pretty damn tight, but i'm gonna bring you guys in on a little secret.....thats a vorpal blade of dragon slaying the samurai's got...still, my money is on the dragon...do you have any idea how hard it was to do those scales? heheheh...

anyway,

QT: thank you! much appreiated

edible: thanks...yeah, i've got $$$ on the dragon too. do you think the tapestry works? that's my attempt at "breakin' up the bricks"...

Rick: thank you for the kudos. i have taken several angles on the bg and came up with the "castle" look out of exasperation more than anything...i have to finish this damn thing...its a long story, but all in all, your right, it is not as japanese as it could be...turning japanese, i think i'm...oh jesus, sorry...:/

Dthind: hey, thanks man (for calling vegas, betting on this gig, and complimenting my work)...anyway, you may feel better about that 500gp now that you know there's a vorpal blade at work!

Thanks!

Whoa... Glad you told me... I could have lost a fortune.

I counted those scales, there are 2312 of them (Just kidding).

I like the modified background. It creates More mood.

Ps. Vegas is pissed, they didnt know about the sword. The odds changed to 10-1 against the dragon...

the tapestry makes it look kind of like a cavernous medieval castle. maybe the dragon ate all the people in it and made it his cave thing.. and anyway... i like it
