Awesome job Jeffrey. Capital job coloring. Sara tells me that your Katakana is faulty, but I'll ignore that ;) =)

Jeff! You copied my katakana too much! Especially on the "n"; I messed up one of the lines and drew over it and you copied that! And your shi looks more like a tsu, as I had feared :no:

K, I'll stop being picky about that, since the writing is the least important part of this pic =P. This is very awesome Jeff, your tributes to other artist always rock and always successfully incorporate your style. Love the cog kimono! Very nice touch. The background is beautiful and helps the figures stand out.

Love it, +fav

this is great, really it is. You got the style down to a tee. And a short amount of time too! If i didnt know better i could easily say this was a picture from feudal japan period stuff etc :D!

also, i love anything with cogs

Kept this window open for a while while doing other things, and every time I come back to the screen to view it, I notice a different part of the picture that I hadn't before. Really enjoy when that happens. Great work, very in keeping with traditional work from Japan. Did you have any inspiration or starting point for it?

Would love to see you do a similar piece based around a samurai sometime if it ever tickles your fancy. Great work, a nice change to your typical work :meditate:

Very nice. I like the gear design on the woman's robe.
