Feels weird commenting on my own piece. Huh.Anyway, there was a Spider like this in the fiction recently! Yay! Mind you, it's hardly an original idea on my part and not much of a jump in logic, but screw it! I'm smugly standing in the background, acting like it was all my idea.

Yeah. The Sohei were an interesting bunch. Ronin and ninja would disguise themselves as them for good cover from time to time. As well as the mountain monks, the Yamabushi. Benkei, Yoshitsune's famous Sohei ally once disgised himself as a Yamabushi in a reversal of themes.Never can tell who's behind that mask. Tenkai Nankobo, a famous monk is belived by some to have been in truth, "Mitsuhide Akechi." Who was presumed dead. The guy lived to be 110, so, seems kinda likely.Anyhow, great drawing. ^_^ The Sohei were a fascinating bunch! The character work is great. And I like the shading a lot. Good job on the armour, you got the leather texture down really good!

Excellent work here! Komuso monks are always cool to draw!

Good choice on the character, and especially on the hat.
