This wasn't a very complicated picture to draw. . I kind of feel like I've cheated in that respect. . . >__>
At any rate, this is fan-art for the movie 'The Last Samurai' (Which is VERY, VERY good, if you've never seen it. I attempted to depict the character Ujio here, who is portrayed by Hiroyuki Sanada in the movie.
Ujio is by far the coolest character; quiet, cool and mysterious, and uniquely handsome. And an excellent fighter who ends up playing a large role in teaching Tom Cruise's character the way of the samurai.
I really didn't do him justice here; the pic seems rather plain; doesn't capture his dynamic presence really. And his face is a bit too narrow.

Oh well.
I used a reference picture, and it came from here:

You should really check it out!
