The Final Showdown
So, I found my 15 years old drawing of a ninja battling a skeleton demon, and I thought, why not #Photoshop it. The drawing was inspired by the 90's NES video-game Ninja Gaiden, and the idea to Photoshop it was definitely sparked by the "Realistified" series from @BennyProductions, and I can't thank you enough for inspiring. Then, I decided to go ahead, re-imagine it and give it a painterly appearance. Now here, I would like to pay my respect and say a huge thanks to @ImadAwan for showing us how to do it the way it needs to be done in his so awesome videos. All my best regards to you.
I am still a learner in the field and pardon me for all the mistakes I have done here. Nevertheless, I hope you will like this composition, and if you do, please don't forget to share your thoughts in the comments below.
