Artist's Comments

Jin practices his form daily...it's a necessity when traveling with a battle-hungry savage like Mugen.

I was just trying different poses with the shiny swords of awesome I got to borrow. And no, I have never done Kendo at all, so if I'm doing something wrong I am completely unaware...and would not mind critique in order to improve my portrayal. Not much else to say about it.

I tried Kendo once. But the guy who taught me had no fingers and no toes so him touching me to improve my form caused much awkwardness.

He also yelled a lot.

Anyways, sorry I can't help. Samurai Champloo really isn't too accurate with their battle stances either. You did a nice job here. I really like the line your body makes. :D
:iconginriru-tatsu:
Well, most anime aren't accurate...I was hoping to be more historically accurate. Thanks anyway. ^_^

I'd love to see you do some radical poses with that sword, too! :D
:iconginriru-tatsu:
I actually think of better poses when I interact with other cosplayers. ^^;
Plus I was just borrowing the swords...and they're metal so aren't allowed at conventions.
