I am looking for a very nice repro of a painting of an Asian lady with a Katana dressed in traditional clothing. I want to frame it and place it next to the rest of my displays.
One of our members has a very nice picture of an Asian lady with a Katana on his postings. I am wondering if any of our members have cool reproductions, i.e. artwork of other classical Asian women with swords and such that are obtainable for legal reproduction. If so please share your images. I think we all might enjoy such artwork.

I like posters myself. Cheap and can be framed. It's not the original but they are so vibrant especially ones done in CGI like this one. Sometimes even the posters are difficult to find and purchase. ![](http://www.wallpaperez.net/wallpaper/games/m/Heavenly-Sword-desktop-1165.jpg)

She looks a bit like Bettie page...with a sword, about to kick some zombie butt, I'd say that ticks all the boxes for me. ;D

She doesn't look particularly blonde, or even "gaijin" for that matter, but I suppose she could be not-Japanese... I'm not so sure about the armor, but the picture is quite nice. "Flight" is amusing and "Memories (Lost)" is nice, too, but not fitting to the request here...though I do rather like them. As a matter of fact, for $24.95 I think I'll buy that book. I'm afraid I have nothing to contribute here, though. Maybe I'll look around...meantime I'm having fun looking at the pictures everybody else is sharing. ![:)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) (That one by Jayde is pretty good, too. ![;)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) )

This one gets my vote. I will order it tomorrow. Sure would like to see more like this with swords. So far the postures that have been submitted shows a great deal of very nice pictures and many diverse tastes. I hope we get more to choose from. Anime pictures can be good source if dressed in somewhat traditional cloths. Please keep the submission of pictures going. very nice so far.

Some (not all) of the pictures might be getting a bit over the top ![:-/](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/undecided.png) .....just my opinion. Very cool computer generated art on some of the postings. I am not offended, though I guess I am a bit old fashion here. ![;)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) I still like to see ladies clothed respectfully with class and style, that's sexy to me. ![:D](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) Just my opinion. Any more pictures with style and class please, please post, there has got to be more good examples out there. I will be getting this one for sure. Placed in a nice bambo style fram would be very classy www.art.com/asp/sp-asp/_/PD--1008.... C186DD65E2DBAB

Dunno ![???](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/huh.png) As I wrote before, this is the best quality/biggest size I could find. And it wasn't on DeviantArt But I think that a good graphic artist, skilled in Photoshop/Gimp can resize it up (without much quality loss) and remove those markings/letters. Then you could go to someone who can make you a print of it and you can hang it on wall ![:)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png) IMO this is part of a larger picture (probly a book illustration) that was(/has been?) scanned. Somehow it got to internet and there it is. ![;)](//storage.forums.net/forum/images/smiley/wink.png)
