Must not forget to post today, even after a torrid weekend of spend spend spend, lose lose lose. Fun was had by all, but we mustn't also forget our artist of the week who happens to be Hiroaki Samura. Mr. Samura is most well-known for his work on the manga Blade Of The Immortal which is currently published in the states by Dark Horse Comics. Working entirely in pencils, the artwork has a very classic feel to it. Very energetic and lithe, Mr. Samura's pencils are also instilled with a quietude that dominates his page and adds emotion to each panel. Reading his work can make you feel at-ease, but the very next page may have you feeling incredibly tense. Such is his versatility.
