It's not all about the swords!

Another interesting post by your Dae-- So many posts in a few days, I'm surprised by so much activity, considering how lethargic I am for every other issue of my life XD

Anyway, I wanna profit of my recent updates of Tra i Fiori to talk about an issue that really intrigues me in these days, Japanese weaponry.

While drawing Kouyo and Mizume pumping out their "fighting spirit", I decided to go with a traditional rendition of samurai warriors.
Avoiding the popular opinion, though, I decided to portray them wielding polearms instead of the more "common" katana. ( This is why. )
