Description Made to be the or a main protagonist in our conceptual comic series along with Arashi Oburumaru. Tried to make research about Musashi (who inspired the character) and made his proportions accordingly since it is said that Musashi is tall for a japanese demograph. Made his hair protrude from one side (it's not because of the wind) like how Kakashi's hair points to one direction, only his point downward. The color scheme is a Seishiro (from samurai shodown) color code done in reverse. Not satisfied really with the swords though, could have done better.

INFO:

Name: Miyamoto Bennosuke
Weapons: Chiisakatana and Odashi (Short and Long Sword)
Style: Switch Blade Raptured Bolt

An upcoming new talent of SDL from the village of Kirae, he is thought by one of the finest swordsman of the land. He is one of the most popular Samurais around is ranked in the top 50 in the league, a considerable feat for a newcomer. With the rumors of the legendary sword being sighted in resent months, he begins his search for the priceless blade. On the way he meets with Oburumaru who joins his journey to find the sword and teach him how to refine his skill although unknown to him that Oburumaru himself is pursuing the sword for himself.

Always serious and works very hard at training, he is rarely seen without his sword. He also possesses an uncanny speed and reflex that enables him to adapt to the situation. His technique's most notable feature is the speed he switches between his two swords. Most accounts tell of tales where his slash hits an opponent before they even see his arm move and a secret move where in the blade of his sword disappears making it hard for opponents to hit it.

Notable also is the fact that 'Osuke cannot read. He says that a swordsmans only weapon is his katana not a pen.

O_o...wow, i like! he has a rather resolute air of determination about him... Ha! i LUV the shirt, mixes the style just right! nice hint of glimmer 'n shine there, and very nice, how you've done the fabrics, you're good with shadows too....the only thing that seems off with this is how there's no highlights in the hair, with the way the lighting is in the pic it just seems to me that there should be some....ah well, still looks good!

Wow! Thanks for taking the time to really examine my piece. You're right! I was suppose to give that hair of his a shine or highllight of sorts.

Very awesome design. I like all of the samurai garb, but also how it has a modern feel to the character with his undershirt and his hairstyle, and also cause of the coloring style. He looks very slick and it's pretty professional looking, I think.

I like the hair, the shape and style of it, and also how it 'moves.' The colors are great, bright and clean, and you did an excellent job with illustrating the movement and different weights of fabric on the clothes.

Very awesome job. : )

If you could, please comment on something of mine, too.

I like the feeling of movement in this picture, even though he's standing still. Nice use of bold lines and colors, and the CUP NOODLE shirt is pretty spiffy. XD

well it's another failed attempt to put a brand on them. It's "Nippon Soup Noodles", paying homage to my favorite instant noodles, Nissin Cup Noodles!
