I cannot let this pass. With my righterous fist I will crush the dirty infidel scum that dares to insult one of the Masters.
Let me tell you this, infantilic emo of smug-festered boya, Sieg is so advanced that he can make you an eunuch with his supa spriting skills. Just look at it: the torso is excellent, - Sieg challenged himself with making a semi-combat stance and he succeeded brilliantly; the face is emotional and not the standart seriousness of one horizontal line for a mouth; the hair is licked back with hot, sticky, white... gelatin thingy... looks like Aizen's from Bleach (also, the design reminds me of one of the 13 Squad Captains, but I can't remember the name, because I dropped the series at 19x something episode). The sprite has a badarse, shiny and sharp sword, held by a firm grip, and in the other hand we have a nice touch, a sake bottle, hm, and who doesn't like sake. Yumyyy. The folds are masterfully done, it has an emotion to it, a thing, that was lacking in previous Sieg's sprites. The only thing I'm not sure is the feet joints, i.e. why are they so prominent? But that's only a minor problem. Love the flowers pattern touch on the clothes and the fierce manliness on a chest. Maybe Sieg strayed away from LF2 style with this one, achieving a more realistic rendering of proportions, but it's one hell of a good sprite and a s(h)itting, yawning and blinking guy, who seems to be dying out of boredom, although made by an also talented spriter, has nothing on it. Not a thing.
