- Things I generally enjoy illustrating :
Fighting games, obscure old video games, super heroes, muscular characters, sexy ladies, leotards and swimsuits

- Things I’m less confident about drawing :
Creatures, animals and monsters, robots, intricate armour or weaponry

- Things I will not draw :
Graphic gore/violence

- Nudity/NSFW is OK!
Just make sure to specify in your request what exactly you are looking for. I have my limits and may decline your request or charge extra depending on the subject, but please feel free to ask!

- I’m happy to follow references closely or be given creative freedom with character designs,
but please be clear with which you prefer! If you want me to redesign or create a character’s look, I expect to be given a degree of creative freedom and not be micro-managed every step of the way.

- I reserve the right to decline any request if I’m not comfortable or don’t think I’m a good fit.
If I don’t think I’ll be able to do a good job I would rather turn down a request than waste both of our time on something neither of us will enjoy. With that said, if you’re unsure about your idea, don’t hesitate to ask!

a cheap edit of Geese's Real Bout Special win portrait, trying to combine it with bits of the strong art styles of Dominated Mind and Wild Ambition. most of my art time is tied up elsewhere, but i had to get this out of my system.

aside from the heavy shadows and rim lighting, not a lot has changed from the source image aside from his head. quick-o shenanigans

source art, Real Bout Fatal Fury Special. always loved the style, but it's not one with which i'm particularly familiar. gotta change that some time.

Real Bout Fatal Fury Special: Dominated Mind's single player character select portraits have such a solid style.

Wild Ambition Geese art. the strong rim lighting is a favorite.

that RBFF2 drop? i'm taking credit for it. SNK saw this, and said "fck yeah. totally what happened. for sure.

barely #pixelart, but an attempt to imitate/update something classic.

2D Tales games had pretty damned good combat, indeed.

combustocrat @combustocrat.bsky.social · 17d

both of those had fantastic quest modes. spent a LOT of time with the one in Ehrgeiz, in particular.

combustocrat @combustocrat.bsky.social · 17d

excellent! PSP Dissidias are damned good. a shame about NT being, well, what it is. might be considered neat, if not for the PSP games doing everything better.

of course! Shenmue rules. never messed with the third one. for that matter, the Like a Dragon series comes reeeeally close, though its combat leans more toward beatemup than fighter. hm. am i forgetting any other major releases? Jade Empire is another great game that's almost what i'm looking for.

combustocrat @combustocrat.bsky.social · 17d

RPG with fighting game combat isn't exactly an original idea, yet nothing noteworthy exists to my knowledge. if such a thing is out there, PLEASE tell me. simple on paper, but execution seems to be another matter. something i'd LOVE to work on, though. SF6 World Tour as a full game? sign me up.

I storyboarded a fan anime opening for my favorite childhood game, megaman legends /ロックマンDASH I wanted to animate the whole thing, but that’s way too much effort. Did it in a way where I can fulfill that childhood dream and move on. Maybe one day I'll form a MAP project out of this!

was gonna wait until i finished the character animations, but other things are taking priority. lazily upscaled filter-fest BG and some HUD overhaul stuff, though. not a fan of some of the lettering. will revisit some day

ONE MORE before i take my ass to bed. remember when i wanted to start a clothing brand mid-pandemic? yeah, no one else does, either. i thought i was clever for ripping off a CM Punk shirt for Charlie from #streetfighter. i sold one. the service discontinued the shirt style soonafter. oops.
