Artist's Comments

A realistic rendition of Kenshin during his final battle with Shishio. This is when he evokes the power of his swordsman spirit instead of reverting to battousai.

Yes...I'm missing the wound he received from Shishio's first attack with the gunpowder...but I couldn't stand to ruin that mass of manly chest!!

There are no flowers no not this time
There'll be no angels gracing the lines
Just these stark words, I find
I'd show a smile but I'm too weak
I'd share with you could I only speak
Just how much this hurts me

Very hot, great recreation of that scene.

When Einstein revealed to the world his wondrous theories of Special and General Relativity, I was the one shouting, “That’s what I was going to say!”

Ignorance killed the cat. Curiosity was framed.

I like cherries!!!

Nice pencil work. Love the realism. For some reason, the way you did his hair reminds me of Jareth from Labyrinth.

The resemblence is remarkable ([link]). That's the first thing that hit my mind. Still an amazing picture, it's still Kenshin to me. Though, you drew him much more manly, with the sixpac and all (maybe he was like that, I might not have been paying close attention). Just a funny coinsidence, I guess.

haha, it's true.

though i did want to make kenshin a bit more imposing of a figure. he was hitokiri battousai!! and he rocks! and i'm sure that since seijuro hiko is so packed with muscle from practicing the hiten mitsurugi style, kenshin would've had some muscles too, hidden under those baggy shirts and frail frame. :P
