Thank you everyone. I'm glad you like my interpretation.

love it +9

Nice composition, but it looks a bit busy to me. It might've helped to enlarge the picture of the sword a bit more, so that it could be more discernable in the final image.

nice but have to agree with goldenavatar.
u don have to enlarge the katana but maybe blur the bg around it a bit

Thank you all for the comments.

Goldenavatar: I actually implemented that idea in the initial stages, but it did not flow with the overall consistency of the piece. So, I decided to keep the Katana blade at a reasonable size, enough to keep it distinguishable from the rest of the image.

Frixon: I tried that approach as well, but it completely killed my preliminary vision. I abandoned the idea and kept it uniformed.

Again, thank you guys for your constructive critiques. It is well appreciated.

Very beautiful, strong feeling.
