Description
Samurai Champloo Β© Shinichiro Watanabe.Happy early Birthday, *LightSeeker !!
(I was planning to wait until Wednesday, but the silly girl opened her card early)
Maaaaan, I thought this one was going to drive me absolutely NUTS! It's an old sketch I'd abandoned because the proportions were all wrong (you seriously don't want to see the Afro of Doom I'd given the poor boy on paper...) but when Sabine asked for Mugen for her birthday, I knew I had to dig up that sketch and give it another chance. Despite the fact that I spent HOURS tweaking things here and there (I had 24 different files at one point...), I'm so glad I did because I'm very happy with the results.

Oh he is, absolutely. But I failed to show that properly. So on this particular picture he's only mildly threatening

I was going to call it "Armed and Dangerous" but he doesn't look quite dangerous enough, does he? So my fiance suggested that and I'm glad it wasn't too long

how old is that sketch? maybe some weeks or months?

I'm pretty sure I drew it last summer, so yes, quite a few months now.

oh, I see. I don't know how much different is the original sketch to this (the "re-done" version xD) but, still looks good

Well I didn't actually re-do that much. It just took a while to resize and reshape the hair into something that looked more like Mugen's, and back then I hadn't actually drawn the hand so I had a floating sword *he he*

Wow, I *adore* his expression. What a great smile you gave him.
You know, there's a Champloo club here. You might want to consider submitting these pieces to it. It is

Thank you!! I'm quite fond of his smile as well, because it's not his crazy I'm-going-to-kill-you one, but it's still Mugen
And yes, I'm a member of that club! I might wait until the new picture's done and submit all 3 at once, if it doesn't take too long.

That envelope was begging me to open it...besides I'm glad I did, because the Mugen b-day card was absolutely gorgeous.

I know, how could I seriously expect you to wait...?
I'm so glad you liked it. Thank you for indirectly forcing me to give that old sketch another chance!

Oh, wow! THat's such a perfect title for Mugen.
You say it once had bad proportions -- it looks fantastic!
I can't get over hoe positively Mugenesque he looks.
