Sensei Tiger, Design for 2D Fighter

Designing a Fighter Based off of Tiger Style Kungfu and Zodiac.

Wanted a top heavy figure with a relaxed and Wise aesthetic.

Title Splash and Final (Current) Render

Final pass and colour variants (For Flavour and possible mirror match ups)

Silhouette start. Knew the frame I wanted but used the silhouette to find a sense of style and as a warm up

draft up of the clothing styles I could use for an eastern style, more sage esc look that had a soft or comfortable look to counter that powerful frame

Stripe variations. Could've tried spots or other large cat styles of fur but wanted to stick with the Tiger for now. Skin ideas for later :)

Got some feed back from another artist who gave some wonderful feedback to improve upon the design
