DESCRIPTION
Shoguns & Ronins is a collaborative illustration by Clog Two and Jose Mertz, released exclusively through Tigers N Torches.
The composition brings together opposing warrior archetypes — disciplined shoguns and wandering ronins — suspended in a charged moment of confrontation. Symbolic companions and mechanical forms orbit each figure, blurring the line between weapon, ally, and inner force.
Drawing from Japanese folklore, street culture, and graphic storytelling, the work balances precision with raw energy, capturing the tension that exists just before impact — where order and chaos briefly collide.
