Ronin and Yamabushi

These were drawn from the Samurai and Ninja Action Scene Collection.  Its a book I picked up years ago for 25 bucks at the comic book store.  When I did a search on Amazon for a link I found its now almost double that price.  Its nice to have a book increase in value, I gotta make sure I keep it extra safe now!

The top sketches were drawn with a Pigma brush pen.  The bottom ones were drawn with a Pigma Graphic 1 that was running out of ink.  I believe in using pens until they totally run dry.  There are some interesting effects and values you can get with a pen that is on its last legs.
