really wicked, the blade looks a little unbladey though
the helmet is awesome

i think the hands look very nice, but i wouldnt have put the blade exactly horizontal. i also find it hard to see what the mouth is... is it the line just under the nose or the larger dark curve, almost at the chin? in both cases it would look a bit strange (the first one too happy, the second one too low and a bit without the strength you would expect from a samurai). Maybe the coif/helm could have been less wide too...

So the piece has it's up and downsides... I still think it's a nice piece, and certainly not a bad job with 10 colours and a canvas at this size...

↔ My computer shows black blobs, but it helps to have a practiced eye. :3

I like the design on the front of the man's helmet, and the darkness of the picture helps to add on the nightmare-ish feel. And honestly, I'd be damn scared if some Samurai scary man kept chasing me in my nightmares, about to slash my head off. Lynch, behead, and any other word I can't think of.

I love dithering. o_o

Ah, I see it now. But I feel that it's a bit too dark. Good job though.

I musn't have more than 10 colors because of the challenge rules, and I prefer keep the 10 greys nuances than sacrifice some greys to had red eyes

try red eyes. It will make it look more nightmarish.
