Description This is the alternate version of this pic:

This is how Linda looks in the arcade version of Technos' Double Dragon II. She's still holding a normal whip here because a friend of mine is working on a fan game with her in it. He'll be using a better close-up in it than any version I've been showing off anywhere. In fact, his game is what made me want to draw a better version of Linda.

I always thought this design should have been used for her from the beginning (although you still managed to make the NES/arcade version look good).

She fits in with the rest of the crew a bit more with design one, but this is definitely the more kick-butt look for her, IMHO.

So did I. It instantly made her look more menacing. Then again, not having the poofy perm hairstyle from DD1 probably helped.

Yeah, that's the one that frightend me as a child.

Great work on the drawing.
I like the coloring, and even though the whip freaks me out she has a nice face.

Naw, we all know you still have the title. That old-school LoZ pic = much respect due because I still don't know how you put nearly all of Link's equipment into one shot without making it look like he couldn't move. That is some genius-type stuff right there!

Yes! My favorite version of the character done by one of my favorite artists and easily my favorite artist friend. Awesome work, good sir.

I can't front: this is probably my favorite version of her especially after so many later games ripped off the original Linda. The mohawk just makes her belong perfectly with that gang. Thanks for the kind words, m'man!

I'd love to see your KoF Double Dragon sprites made into a full game. The person that I did this for actually made KoF versions of some of the DD for his fighting game. I'll have to ask when it's cool to spread the word about his project. Nice to see that there'll be more DD on the way with your help!

He has a site but I'm going to ask him if he's going fully public with it before I add the link to the gallery page. I'll send you a message about that when he's ready.

AAh, the ever-loving spandex clad whip weilding woman of Double Dragon. They always had a special place in my heart. Cracking their annoying skulls brought me great pleasure LOL. This version looks down right intimidating, much more suited for gang violence, the other one looked too pretty. Although I love the other one better, this one fits the roll. Great stuff.

I agree that this version fits the scary gang role much, much better. I also agree that she was annoying as hell, but so was almost every enemy in the arcade game

My goal was to definitely make her look tough. Thanks!
