I really like your warrior scene by Tang Zichuan, and yes it seems to be a severed head... lol...

hahaha thanks Pat! Makes me love it all the more! And excellent points about YST.

Brian, I think articles like that one just add to the confusion of which bottles were actually done by YST. 
I still think it's a third unknown artist. Imo a great deal of the battle scenes no one could attribute just fell under the YST umbrella.

Looking at more of these by the third unknown artist, I'm seeing the same scene repeated over and over again. That and the lack of calligraphy is making me think this was a talented apprentice. 

Good eye Adrian - catching the reins difference.
