Hey, thank you so much for the comments! They were the most expressive and helpful I've ever gotten so far! I'm glad you got into L5R; it's a fun setting for Asian themed artwork, with strong visual concepts. Advice on drawing ise zumi? Tattos. Elaborate beautiful tattoos that actually look like tattoos and not just body paint is key. Also to remember that they are monks, and not cover them with elaborate garb. That's it, really!
