Lone Wolf and Cub by Kevin Catalan

Nicely done!  And that kid is going to need YEARS of therapy.  

Nice motion effects on the blade.

Love it. Big fan of Kevin. 

crazy good commission result, awesome. congrats!

Brutal and intense.  His style really fits the subject matter.

Great piece where Catalan made the sword, main character number one!

Catalan delivering major energy and brutal power!

Wow! That is the coolest Lone Wolf and Cub commission I've ever seen! Love this scene of Itto Ogami beheading one samurai trying to kill him, while another samurai has his katana out and is about to attack Ogami from behind. A couple of other samurai already lay dead on the floor and poor little Daigoro can only watch as his father does what his father does best: Kill other samurai. Gorgeous, while admittedly bloody, commission by Kevin Catalan.

LW doling out some legit extreme prejudice!  Dude...the raw energy and violence.  And depth!  As you say, Kevin straight killed it.  Congrats, man!

The composition, detail, and EXECUTION are all here and it proves as a perfect example of how talented Kevin Catalan is. I already know there is graphite under those inks and that makes this piece a little bit sweeter. Congrats D! This is a stunner.

Executed expertly. The shogun should protect his neck. Excellent choice for Catalans style. 

I can practically hear the keyboards and the blood-geyser foley work from Shogun Assassin

So cool!!

BRUTAL! Totally captured the feelilng of road of heaven and hell.
