reminds me of the gritty style in the killzone games, definantly wouldn't want to be faced against him in battle. An amazing samurai show i recently watched it Shigurui. it's an anime but even if you dont normally like anime you should like it, it doesn't have the rediculous high pitch voices or the choppy animation prevalent in most anime. and the story and action are better than most live-action movies i've seen. good job on the artwork, keep it up!

...oh yeah...cause a couple people commented on the grenade launcher being used by a sniper...it was inspired by a sccene in Apocolypse Now, where a real stoned out soldier is asked to shut up a Viet Cong sniper taunting them from the dark jungle!
Through his glazed eyes, he loads his grenade launcher and says..."he's close man...real close", then he pops off the grenade...silence....great scene !

At first glance I thought "oh wow, it's another." However, that quickly changed. You went against a few expectations here, and that proved to be a very smart choice. First, I'll bet most people assumed that the "sniper" would have some kinda long-ass gun o' snipery death or something, and then you went a completely different approach, and did something that would make for one of the most interesting snipers in the world. From what I can gather, you opted for a grenade launcher instead of a rifle, which from my point of view kicks ass. ;D
Also, I thought that you would have any sort of insignia or anything on him, and then you surprised and amazed me once more. You gave the dude a mask that looks like some awesome combination of a gas mask (the goggles) and a samurai's three-pronged helm. The red circle within adds a great touch without being too overwhelming, and the kanji (or whichever symbol type they are) ties in the piece fantastically.

Overall, this is as badass as ever. I want you to put your ronin characters into a comic book. I'd buy it.
But I have to say the muzzle flashes are a bit blah. They look too solid, opaque and sharply-defined. Some fuzzy glowing stuff might help. As might having reflected orangey light on the muzzle-end of the gun.
