Haha!.. Yeah, I pretty much winged that right arm of Zangief… Actually, I was drawing him all angry and mad before, but it was depressing me… I was too happy to be stressed…
And here’s my early Ken (or is it behind?):
I wasn’t sure what version of Ken we can do, but since we’re doing the Alpha roster (which is missing Dee Jay, Fei Long, Guile, and T. Hawk BTW), I went with the younger Ken… I think I messed up with his face though… 
Armstrong’s the bald, muscled, mustachioed, ambiguously gay weirdo in FMA. He likes to flex alot. Annoying at first, but hilarious to many.
My only excuse would be that in my mind, Zangief has GIANT thumbs. ^^
Rook, I was actually thinking of Hulk Hogan when I did it. I guess I should have used reference.
Greyhound, I just kinda sketched and it left it how it was. I need to get a tablet and begin learning to CG things.
My Ken should be done soon. Ken was my main man in Alpha 3. I guess I was a super A groove Ken scrub.
:tup:
^Happens to the best of 'em. And yes, I did think “Hogan” when I saw the finger-pointing. 
my Gief entry will be kinda late. I’m really busy this week… and perhaps next week too

OMG breakdancing Ken!
j/k, it does look like that though

good stuff, thx!

nice. less engaging than your previous pieces though.

LOVE that captured moment feel… nice interaction between Ken & Eliza.
Ken’s ponytail is a bit too thick at the top though. Compositionally, I’d also avoid having him point directly at the viewer.

Gief hulking up was the 2nd thing that came to mind, so don’t sweat it, the idea got across
Balrog punches Gief in the head
Gief starts shaking his head
Balrog punches Gief in the head again
Gief continues shaking his head, no-selling Balrog’s punches, and walking around
Balrog punches Gief in the head again
Gief shrugs off the blow, looks wide-eyed at Balrog, nostrils flaring & veins popping, and POINTS THE FINGER!
“YOU~!”
the sheer notion cracks me up XD
Try not to think of Ken pointing to the audience, but rather measuring, uh, something…

Surprisingly I showed my tagging compatriot PsychoSquall this drawing and he was all “I want to CG it” and I was all “that is sweet”
I tried to make him look cocky, hope it came off like I wanted it, and yeah I realize my hands aren’t amazing, but I’m not exactly drawing very human renditions of the characters. Still I should stop complaining and practice more I suppose.
^^nice overall, except the nose, looks kind of weird to me…
I’m trying to get offa the Manga/anime stylized stuff in my art. I’m more of a american cartoonist then I am anime styled artist. ( at least thats what I want to be )
Thank you though. I enjoyed breakdancing Ken as well. :tup:
actually I was referring to the compositional aspect, where elements are angled for maximum visual impact. I think that if his hand was at a different angle so that it clearly showcased what he was trying to do, it would be better overall.
Having his finger point towards the viewer in this case might be miscontrued at Eliza and Ken are having a laugh at the viewer’s expense. (which, of course, is cool if that’s what you intended it to be…)

facial expression is ok, I can feel the cockiness ocming through. I think his abdomen (6-pack area) is too big though… it doesn’t match up with the rest of his body.
eh guys, im back from Dragon*Con and I should be able to put up some picks for the challenge. Rook, what happened to my thread man?
Gawd, I suck, I SUCK, I SUCK, I SUCK.
:sad: :sad: :sad:
I see what you mean abour the six pack. My only excuse is that Ken has really big abs. :party:
VSlash
happens to all of us at some point or another
which thread are you talking abt?
My Karate-Chop INC. thread. I was using it to post all my pics.
well, I didn’t do anything to it, so it should still be there. By default, SRK only displays threads that have been active in the past 30 days or so. Everything else before that you’ll have to access by changing the “display options” at the bottom of the Fan Art forum.
If you had used the Advanced Search function, you’d have found it in no time. I just did a seach for threads started by Deonysios and it was the first result.
Hope i’m not too late with my Zangief. With all the number of Kens finished it’s hard to tell which is due.
Yeah i know =(. I just started sketching and this came out… and the result was very blah. I’m still trying to think of a good pose. As for your Gief, better late than never! Can’t wait to see it.
VSlash: That’s a pretty good sketch. The abdomen is the only really weird thing about it. The nose is simply a matter of style… I don’t we need to see another anime-style Ken here. It’s good you’re going in other directions =).
jz_chu237: Nice… he looks hungry!
Haha… Thanx for the critique… I was just trying to eat myself out… Hehe…
Oh, and nice Zangief head, jz_chu237…
