An update to the current drawing of Iori that I am working on. Overall this gives more of an idea of what I am going for.

Looking Back Iori Yagami Rough II
Looking Back Iori Yagami Rough I
For now here is a quick rough draft of a future painting of Iori Yagami. I feel like i need to push the pose a bit more and make it more dynamic. I also want to add more people to the background to make it more interesting.

K’ Pain V2
With a bit more experience I decided to give my K’ painting another try and fix areas that I felt needed work. I’ve also added a couple more details such as lights and steam. Pretty soon I will start working on some winter artwork. Shame I couldn’t fully enjoy this fall season.

Mr Karate and Ryo sparring V2
I was hoping to upload this piece a bit later but here it is.
Here is the first version:
There was potential in the idea but the first version was not quite there yet. I first re worked the background by also adding some more lighting details as well as changing the floor layout. As for Ryo and Mr. Karate I changed their postures a bit as well as the overall color with new lighting. Ryo’s face was a bit wonky so of course that had to be fixed.

Mai Shiranui and Chun Li
Here is the painted version of my Mai Shiranui and Chun Li artwork. I can’t believe it took me years (I believe I said it was an idea from 2021) to give this painting a try.

Mai Shiranui vs Chun Li Line Art
Today’s drawing is of the two rival poster girls, Mai Shiranui and Chun Li. Chest vs Thighs. I’ve had this idea for number of years. I did a really rough background for it back in 2021 but I wasn’t quite ready so it lay dormant till now. This time I did the line art first and will probably end up using a different background this time.

Playful Chizuru Kagura V2
For today’s art piece I decided to give a past painting another try. Today I repainted Chizuru Kagura which I originally did on December 2021.
It can be seen here:
… Yeah, this drawing definitely needed a makeover. I removed the line art and instead softened the lines I painted. The eyes I resized and also softened Chizuru’s eyelashes.

Inktober 2022 22 Iori Yagami and Athena
Day 22. Today’s drawing is of Iori and Athena. I saw this reference photo from a guy that had the same style as Iori and just had to draw it. Apparently its from a show in the 90s. I was going to keep the same actress on Iori’s side, I mean we don’t know how Iori’s ex looks like. And Hosho Mai looks super beautiful in the photo. But ultimately I decided to change it to a King of Fighters character. I chose Athena.

Iori Yagami possessed
Ahhh man, I’ve been wanting to paint Orochi Iori for a couple of years now. I seriously can’t believe it took me this long to finally do it. Looking at the gameplay animations I decided upon this pose. Having him slash there really isn’t any visual flare, but it seems in the newer games it has been added. So I decided to add a bit of flare. I thought it would look weird to have him slashing at nothing so I added some blood splatter as though he hit his target. cough cough… Kyo..
I wanted the background to fit Iori’s state, since we had a couple of rainy days where I lived I was thinking of that, or maybe a night scene. But while looking at some reference pictures I found one of a sunset that I felt would fit very well.
The Corel Painter 2023 Sargent brushes are so much better since I have more control to their thickness while also having blending abilities.

Playful Chizuru Kagura
This is the painted version of the drawing I made for Inktober 2021 day 04. I still wonder if I should have changed Chizuru’s expression to that of a more serious one. But surely she has fun playing around with Iori and Kyo.

Terry Bogard Hat Salute V2
A redo of painting I did back in March 2020. I only did a couple of touch ups of the background and changed some of the lighting and color. The main changes were made to Terry in terms of the values and hues. The main part I mainly spent repainting were his arms.
First version can be seen here:

Athena Asamiya Idol V2
The original version was uploaded back in November 2020, but I feel that it was lacking. I now feel a bit more confident to go back to it and update it with my current skills. Not only did I change some colors but I changed the sleeves and chest area. The background was also touched up. The right eye (what appears to us as the left eye) was drawn too far down the face so Athena looked a bit deformed. Aside from that, I also changed the gaze so it appeared that she was looking at us. I should seriously actually render paintings more, I’ve been leaving them too rough.
Original can be seen here:
Aside from seeing the original piece, you can learn what inspired me for this particular painting.
