I always thought this would have been an interesting duel between these two characters. Kind of like Batman and Captian America... The battle really could go either way.
I'm not 100% happy with how I ended up translating Jack's face from Tartakovsky's style to my own, but hey, it's done. Who cares. :p
Hope you like.

I like the concept here (and the colouring) and that snowy background really makes the fighting seem all the more intense. I'm not very familar with the other guy but I do love Jack and I think your translation although making his face look softer/more rounded than usual worksnicely - it's still unmistakably him, right down to those trademark eyebrows of his! :anime:
Great to see more of your work too Machina :)

Nice work, Machina! I like your style of the both of them, and sit here with jealousy to keep me company as I admire your coloring. :D

It's great seeing both Jack and Kenshin out of their original styles; rendered here, Jack strikingly resembles the main character Sanjuro from the Kurosawa movie Yojimbo. Looks like they've really got a grudge match going there, I wonder what it could be about? Maybe about who is the most butt-kicking of samurai?:D

hehehee... Nice pic to post as your return, My White Doll friend! :D
I had an idea for a pic like this a long time ago... glad you beat me to executing it :p
I like your style very much... very strong, clean lines with lots of energy to the forms. The colors arent saturated, leaving the pic to pop with just the rendering itself.
Good job sir! :D

I was actually worried about this one. I hadn't been able to draw steadily for like two months now, between moving during Christmas, the employment going kaput around New Years, and having to get a new job, and working wretched hours... But I am happy how it turned out. Makes me feel I hadn't quite lost it as much as I was afraid I had.
Glad you all like it, thanks guys. :)
