haha,, yeah kenshiro has started to look a bit like stallone in recent years... he started out as a mixture of mad max and bruce lee... then progressed to look like an asian rocky. haha.

hi!! very good picture!!
Lookin that you are able to paint kenshiro and the others, you can make real a dream that i had some time ago: Kenshiro at the disco with Yuria , Shin at the station waiting for train, and Raoh & Toki as bodyguards! ^_^

Hmmm - Even though the animation for Hokuto no Ken is good. I still prefer Souten no Ken.

have you seen the new souten no ken anime? it just started here recently.
the only problem i have with the later hokuto no ken characters and the souten no ken characters is that their bodies look like globs of muscle and they all have the same faces...
in the first few hokuto no ken, kenshiro was actually based of of mad max/mel gibson and bruce lee... i thought he look cool. then later he got an ugly hair cut (haha) .... souten no ken has a much more down to earth story though... not quit as far fetched as hokuto no ken... i guess it depends on what you are into.
anyhoo, i worked on Souten no Ken graphic novels 13, 14, and 15... a little over a years worth... that may have caused me to be slightly bitter about the books.. especially since i never went home or slept when i was working there.
anyhoo, i like both stories... the souten no ken anime looks really rad, im watching it every week.
take it easy.

It looks more like Kenshiro [Hokuto no Ken] then Kasumi Kenshiro [Souten no Ken]. But nice job.

you think so? i prefer the early Hokuto No Ken version... but Hara Sensei realy loves the way that he draws Kenshiro now... i try to put a bit of old-school flavor into my versions for the comic.
thanks!

It is a badass pic of Yang-Wang.
If i had to be critical i kinda think the lining on his face could be darker but that's up to.
