Now That Is Good Art
Your drawings were awsome I was surprised that the file was only 4000kb's with such good drawings and the length, I failed to see the cliche you were talking about. but there was no real plot like maybe if we had some backround information on all of this and the main character it would have made more sense and best of all though the guy was left handed (ya!) and I liked that he was using it backwords I mean like the blade was facing behind him, instead of the traditional boring, overused blade infront of the person (like a samurai), and I liked that cause there's not enough of using it that way. The rain was well done I don't know if anybody else saw it but when they showed the army guy while it was raining I saw a bit of blood being washed away from the mask he grabbed from the guy, great effect it made it more realistic even though it was only for a split second.
Great art awsome useage of effects and good switch up of how the sword was used, all it needs is a bit of a backround story so me, and everyone else can make sense of it.
