Description SPOILER PIC (don't say I didn't warn you)

Ok, I was FINALLY able to finish this. : D
Some of my key copics ran out in the middle of coloring this and it's finally done! Please forgive the watermarks. :b

The first draft was here,
[link]
which by comparison, I didn't want it to be up long enough for people to comment. xP I took so long to finish that I feel like I suck at updating.

Either way, This is the 'Final Strike' between Ichigo and Grimmjow from Bleach. My favourite scene in the series so far. If you've seen it, then you'll understand why. :3

Picture was done on 11x14 in Smooth Bristol Paper
with Copics and Ink.
Approx 12 hours.

Your technique is impressive with Copic, what do you use?, the makers, sketch or ciao?, in short, I love so far not seen you for the deviant, but your drawings are awesome, both this and the "naruto vs pain ", are amazing ^ ^

I have half and half of the sketch and ciao markers. TT_TT they're not cheap... but SO fun to use. And thanks for the compliment!

In use, there is no difference, same tips. some colors are only available in ciao and some only in sketch
BUT, what the real difference is is that the ciao are smaller/hold less ink yet they sell them at the same price. Marketing at it's finest, however if you want some colors, you go with the ciao. There's not that much of a difference in amount inside but it's funny how they do that.

In Spain, the difference is that the ciao, sell them cheaper than the sketch, because they are smaller and have no ciao ink refill, but the difference is not much. ^ ^ thanks, I wondered why many artists use two types of marker in the picture, but I have said, that the ink is the same: S

That's interesting, I have used the refills on the ciao markers and have had no problem. :\

thank YOU for the great comment! haha, I'm glad you like it. I was selling copies of it today at the anime con I was at. It was pretty popular.

Now that is nicely done. The closeups of their faces are lovely.

Is this the scene when we all think he killed him and then Grimmjow comes back only to be almost killed by Nnoitra?

Or is this after that?

This is where Ichigo catches Grimmjow's hand and apologizes, that he can't get hurt anymore, then strikes him. I've loved that scene for a long time.

Yay, the nose is so well drawn on Grimmjow. The shading looks smooth too, especially in the background.

looks great, I'm jealous of your marker skillz

well it is a job very well done! i can't find anything in it that needs improvement. and i'm really liking the hair details (lines showing seperate strands) and the eye details (different colourings in Grimmjow's iris)
