BY THE SWORD OF THE SAMURAI
Lately I have been fascinated with the "ice-cold warrior mentality" a samurai has. Let’s face itSamurai are extremely cool! 

A Samurai will always act with poise and discipline. Regardless of whether he was under enemy attack, training with his partner or spending time with his master the warrior would always be disciplined.

For a Samurai there is nothing more important than honor. 

In this study I tried to capture the grace, discipline, passion and determination in one single picture.
"Mempo's" were facial armours which covered all parts of their face.
 The Shinobi-no-o (chin cord) of the kabuto would be tied under the chin.
 Samurai also wear Sode. This is a large rectangular shoulder protection made from iron and or leather plates.

You're not a real samurai without your own katana. Katana were one of the traditionally made Japanese swords that were used by the samurai of ancient and feudal Japan. The katana is characterized by its distinctive appearance: a curved, slender blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip.
Progress of the samurai.
