Mr. Karate

Mr. Karate, from SNK's Art of Fighting.

I made it for the Boss Tribute Project on FGE and Game Art HQ. I saw the project and decided to join. You can find the links to the side. There are still plenty of bosses to choose from.

I never drew Mr. Karate, or Kruaser, before so I stepped up to draw them. I have drawn Rugal before, but all the drawings were not very good.

Another reason is I wanted to test out that method I used on the Lady Deadpool painting I made again. No color flats, just color layer over a white background.

I have been going to Akiman's HP and noticing that he gets the roughs down then just refines them. That has lead me to try this.

It works very well, and stops me from doubting myself so much.

I always take extra care with each line as if I can't erase it. I have been sketching the strucure of my characters for around 10 years before inking/ finalizing my lines.
Yet I am growing tired of the process being so drawn out.

When I was growing up, all the way through my 11th grade of High School. I would get so many drawings done in such a short amount of time. Now I hardly finish 1 a month.

So I am trying to find a new process that keeps everything I have learned, but gives me back the speed I lost.

That way I can get more work done for my clients faster.
