This is one side of an art trade i've done with the talented  F0X of a sword-fight between him and me. It all stemmed from a little corroboratory sketch we did together about a year ago. You could say that this, and my own version is the rematch.
I 'm really happy with how this came out, it's amazing to see myself in manga form, especially in my dolman jacket; he's done a superb job of getting the finicky details on and the poses and perspective are amazing. Will be getting the colour version up soon ^^
The swords shown are a napoleonic cavalry sabre and a Japanese naginata.
