I might as well give a bit bigger image for a preview…

wow man! the light on this piece is a class!
the design of the samurai that´s seated is just great, captured my attention for a while.
great direction
gonçalo
blaz ma samurai dude!
hehe … love the color scheme right now … dark … earthy yet wet … raw tones! … keep em comin bro! all da best to you! ![]()
Really cool! Simple and powerfull!
Digg the composition of the board.
Will follow this thread for sure!
great job…
and i can see the ninja now, he just needed some detail to separate him from the others. Love the one in the back with the apple, love the light, but i did prefer the old color scheme, but that is just a personal preference. As for the backgrnd i think like a mongolian/general tent would be really cool.
excellent,nice subject ,idea and composition,i like your japanese demons samurai(oni musha??) good luck

once again im not sure I’ll be able to finish my entry… projects dont give me any room for my personal images… ah well… maybe next time. Thnx to all of you who stopped by, and I’ll try to finish this one after the deadline. Good luck with all of urs entries!
What? And you’d come so far! You don’t think you’ll have any free time in the next two months? Well, keep us in mind if you have a spare minute or two, as right now you’re a lot further along than most. We’ll miss you, buddy! 
hehe Michael, thnx so much for those encouraging words
but here is the situation: 10 print size paintings in next 3 months, 2 days per week full time job as an art director for another company, couple of storyboards for music video and 3 other “smaller” projects… I just hope I’ll eat and sleep enough to survive
But after October will pass by I’ll be free as a bird again… if nothing else drops by.
Aww… too bad, I really looked forward for your entry.
Maybe next time! Keep it up, Ninja!
Great image!! Your challenge is growing up very well! Brillinat idea at all,and,I like a lot the colours…very appropriate.:applause:
really inspiring painting. It’s too bad that you wont be able to finish this for the competition, it would have been great to see it finished.
