Artist's Comments

"006" or "Kendoka"

Traditional work - Indian ink

The raccoon is wearing the traditionally styled clothing and protective armour -bogu-, which is used to practice KENDO.
KENDO or "way of the sword", is the Japanese martial art of fencing.
In its hands you can find the shinai, which is a bamboo sword... At the moment the racconn is quite xD, he is not running and shouting -kiai- :P

Comments make the raccoon happy..... O.o

-----

-Tinta china

El mapache esta con la vestimenta tradicional (incluyendo la armadura -bogu-) para la practica de KENDO
KENDO o "camino de la espada", es esgrima japones
En sus manos tiene un shinai, la espada de bambu..

Comenten <3

:D

sick drawing. kendo no nothing about would u tell me more?

"The movements in kendo are different from European fencing because the design of the sword is different. Kendo employs strikes with a defined 'edge' and with the tip of the shinai. Kendo training is quite noisy in comparison to other martial arts because kendōka use a shout or kiai to express their spirit, and because the front foot contacts the floor in a motion similar to stamping called fumikomi when a strike or cut is performed ."
