Setsuna Rough, Lines, and Flats

Rough
 Last Blade 2, a fighting game series that I hope SNK would revisit. The game had some cool looking characters in it and one of my favorites was this guy here named Setsuna.

C.Viper Vs Vanessa Roughs

Milfs in Kombat.
These two middle-aged fighters (and mothers) are somewhat a rarity in fighting games. We need more middle-aged fighting badasses please!

Mai Shiranui Rough

Nippon ichi indeed.
Mai Shiranui from SNK's Fatal Fury and King of Fighters series. I don't know how she fights in that costume. Also she seems to hail from the Ryu Hayabusa School of Stealthy Ninjas since she loudly exclaims her special moves...and said special moves usually surround her with fire; you know, for maximum stealth!

Juri Han Rough

YOU fight her.
Juri Han, Capcom's first Korean (that I know of) Taekwondo Street Fighter. It surprised me since her design is so wild, because when I think of Capcom characters, I see them as iconic but also too "safe" in terms of their design. Kudos to the designers for making her evil (or rather bat-shit crazy) since pretty much all of the Taekwondo fighters I can think of from any game are always straight up good guys. So to sum it up, while she would look more at home in an SNK game, I'm glad that she's instead gracing Street Fighter's roster as she just adds a nice uniquely evil  flavor of wildness to the game.

Gen-Fu Roughs

Yosh!
It would be criminal for me to draw Bass Armstrong and not draw his unofficial partner in crime, the awesomely bearded Xinyi Liuhe Quan master: Gen-Fu. He was the other half of my Dead or Alive team alongside Bass since both characters can deal massive amounts of damage and thrive on exploiting missed attacks by their opponents. More importantly, he can sit and throw his hat mid-game, just for the hell of it. I thought that was stylish!

Bass Armstrong Rough Version 2

It's a shoooow time!
I was not happy with the first rough, so I drew a new one. I'm more satisfied with this one, therefore I will go ahead and clean it up tomorrow after I get up.

Bass Armstrong Rough

All aboard the Buffalo Train! 
Oh Bass Armstrong. It was a long time coming but I'm finally doing an artwork of the big guy. He's Dead or Alive's unapologetic caricature of Hulk Hogan and surprisingly one of my all-time favorite characters to play as in a fighting game.

Siegfried Flats

So close...

Siegfried Rough

Ora ora ora!
Soulcalibur V was announced last week, and if you know me, I'm a HUGE fan so I'm all pumped up for the game. This is Siegfried, one of the main characters of the 'Soul' series, a sketch that I will be working on over the next couple of days.

Myrmidon Rough

lolriftcats
I've been playing a game by Trion Worlds called Rift for the past couple of months and here is my rendition of my in-game character whom I named "Myrmidon" for some reason. I really enjoy the game especially because there is a warrior class called the Beastmaster that can have an animal companion. But unfortunately ever since I hit the max level, having an animal companion with you is not as good as it should be. So out of nostalgia I drew this sketch which I plan on completing in the following days. Hopefully the the developers will look into re-balancing and fixing the Beastmaster so that I can start using my pet cat again.

Mazinger Z Roughs

My first attempt at my Mazinger Z piece. He's using his double rocket  punch attack. But I wasn't feeling it... 

...so I made a second sketch with a more dynamic pose but I still didn't quite like it.

For my third attempt I tried a different special move, which is Mazinger Z's  Breast Fire. But instead of drawing the beams, I thought it'd be interesting to just see him about to fire it with all the laser build-up. 

Check out the final piece in my deviantArt page.
