Description Update
==============
I just added tones to this now, and I felt it would be a hassle to just delete the deviation and contact you guys again that its new. (If you liked it before with shades, this shouldn't waver your decision at all.)

Old Update
===============

Full view would be the recommendation of spectating.

A toned version of Mizumaru, an OC of mine.
I took out the line version in exchange of this.

First time toning. It was actually a pain in the ass not knowing how to work Manga Studio~



Well pretty much this took up the whole day for me~ I don't plan to make a coloured version any time soon, since there's other things I wish to work on~

Added-note: My brother pointed out my sword being designed the wrong way (the side of the blade which is normally the dull side is the sharp side), which was done on purpose. I've always found swords more appealing in this type of fashion (like Kenshin Himura's reverse edged sword).

Just a fun fact~

Another added-note: Thanks to for pointing this out as well. (Forgot to mention this before I went to sleep at 3:30am. ) The sword looks longer than its sheathe because the grip of the sword is longer than normal.

I remember playing this character Judith in the game 'Tales of Vesperia' where she had a sword that was long as well, and it looked freaking awesome~ and I also noticed how Namco Bandai elongated the handle as well (but not TOTALLY long as the sharp edge of the sword), because she uses it like a spear.

So because of that, I wanted to make the handle longer because it looked pretty wicked.

I'll make sure I create another pose of her with the sword sticking out next time~

-Good job! Have you been using Manga Studio often?

-You should try setting the scanning DPI at 300 and export from MS at 600 to get rid of those textile effects.

-Oh, I consider myself decent at MS. Any questions?

why does she come up when i'm looking for kenshin? did you put that as the search category?

Banzatou In reply to Kitsune516 [2009-03-23 16:33:32 +0000 UTC]

No, I didn't put it up as a search keyword. I'm assuming because I was referring to her sword being (somewhat) inspired by Rurouni Kenshin, is why you got to this deviation.

Seems like her sword is too long for the sheath. Honest mistake if I'm wrong. Otherwise the piece is good.

Banzatou In reply to Anika-Dark [2009-03-23 16:42:42 +0000 UTC]

Haha, that was another thing I forgot to mention, thanks for pointing that out, Anika.

I actually designed the sword's grip to be longer than usual, and no, I'm not saying this to get out of a critique.

MY MISTAKE was not showing enough of the sword itself and putting it behind her, that one was my fault.

But irregardless whether it being done on purpose or not, glad that you pointed that one out~
