Kenshin has been awsome recently so i was inspired to do this drawing. I'd like every Kenshin fan to see this and i'd appreciate any feedback thanx.

Nice. He definitely has the Battousai glare. If I may impart a tiny little suggestion, what would totally make Kenshin look Battousai-esque would to color his eyes yellow, and leave the rest black and white. After all, it seems all Battousai's seem to have yellow eyes when they're in Kill-Frenzy mode. :D

Again, nice.

SK has a point because, at first glance, you cant tell if it is Kenshin or the Battousai. Despite that, it is a very strong image. I like the details you put into it. It has a very Japanese silk screen look to how it is rendered.

Me likes :)

I think that picture is freaking spectacular. I mainly only like drawings with a lot of color in them but this one really changed my mind. The glance is so Battousai-like, as well.

SilverKnight's suggestion sounds really good, but either way, I am definitely in love with this drawing. :D

Hey thanks for the ideas. I am rather unfamiliar with color aswell as photoshop. My skills at filling things in are still very sketchy as you've all probably seen. I've have done evrything in black and white all my life and it feels strange to do one thing in color. Well maybe one day i'll be able to. :)

gah, how could I miss this! Kenshin is my ultimate fav character, and you did him proper justice as Battousai in this image! Scenery looks great and he definitely has the Battousai look about him. His overall figure, positioning of the sword and hands is all nicely done. It would be very cool to color his eyes, would definitely add an interesting touch.
