#Takahashi Takeda

[iwritesometimes]

jin/takeda commission by @bludmd23, whose commissions are open as we speak!! i just love their little expressions and how takeda is CLINGING to jin for dear life. this is in-character, i feel. also obsessed with how the artist got a little arrow and kunai into the frame, too, bc i wasn't sure there'd be room for all their weaponry, so this was a perfect compromise<333

anyway, go commission them!!! you too can have adorable chibis!!!

I made something

[supermeiko]

First: This post is the premise.↑

Note: This review was not made with the intention of "judging skin color." On the contrary, it was made to point out the double standard that you non-Asian people "judge Asian skin color," but "in reality, you guys are getting the skin color wrong." Personally, I think people should be free to even change their skin color. I made this because I hate people like you who enforce a lack of tolerance.

Verification: Materials were copied and pasted to make everything the same. Area lights were used so that there would be no difference in lighting. Shang Tsung was used as the base, and everything except the skin was temporary or reused. What was surprising was that in yellow tones, Shang Tsung was the brightest in his class. This means that it is not wrong to draw Shang Tsung in lighter colors. In red tones, Sub-Zero is bright, but Scorpion is also surprisingly pale. Below are my own speculations

Among them, Johnny is the only one who is white, and because he is white, his coloring reflects his complexion, but if you look at the color of his face alone, you wonder if there is a difference between him and Kenshi. In terms of simple whiteness, Sub-Zero is by far the whitest.

The color around Kenshi's collarbone is slightly redder, and I feel like we should get rid of the jinx that white people = whiteness.

No matter how much I review Kenshi's materials, the results always seem to have some kind of error, why?

I thought Smoke was a bit high-toned even in the game screen, but surprisingly, Subsco ends up looking paler than him. I think the reason Smoke looks high-toned is because the light in photo mode is also yellowish.

So when drawing these three, it's correct to use the same tones and make Smoke yellower.

Scorpion is a little redder and darker than Smoke, but it's wrong to make him a clear black and white contrast with Smoke. So, artists like that should be blackwashed! (But don't forget that Scorpion has Japanese roots and gets sunburned easily. He looks like he'll get sunburned.)

As for the problem with Raiden, he ends up being a darker tone than Liu Kang, so it's not wrong to point out that he shouldn't be colored with lighter skin.

However, that Westerner "draws Havik with normal skin tone," so if the face alone is about the same tone, Raiden should be drawn with the same skin tone as Havik.

By the way, please draw Scorpion with lighter skin♥

I think Takeda's skin is dark because, as a personal preference, he is half Thai. On the other hand, I think Kung Lao's skin is too yellow, not dark, because NRS made him too yellow because of a lack of Asians, so I've decided that Kung Lao is an Asian stereotype created by white people and black people.

I've said before that Liu Kang's tone is light, but in reality, he's only a few tones different from Kitana. (I thought the complexion was better on screen, too, but Liu Kang's is better.)

Basically, women's tones are higher than men's, even if they are the same race, but Kitana's tone is a little more beige than Shang Tsung's.

As it turns out, this assertion is incorrect, since Shang Tsung is lighter skinned than Johnny.

No matter what you guys say, Japanese people tend to draw better by putting basic bright colors first, so if you follow that rule and adjust the contrast, you can put colors like this. Use it as a color chart! I'll add character comparisons with my critiques if requested.

Jin's been out of the loop ever since he got sent to Outworld to be the Wu Shi's Liaison... Needless to say, he's not too happy when the Timequake strikes 🙇🏽

But good news! Sonya Blade survived the Bone Temple collapse! Man it sure would have been tragic if something bad had happened to her, am I right? 😅

What's gonna happen to all those JohnShi AUs where they raise Cassie and Takeda together when Takeda's DLC releases this summer? Kenshi's 28 and already has a grown-ass son, motherfuck.

[angermango]

Mortal Kombat fan-designed outfits

So way way back in 2019 I started doing some outfit designs for a select few Mortal Kombat characters because I didn't like some of the MK11 outfits and then I just decided to expand it and create new outfits for all the characters. It took way longer than I thought it would and then I got tired of it and put it to the side telling myself I'd come back to it one day... until recently when I realised I just wasn't interested in doing any more. I figured after all the time I spent on it I might as well put some of the designs on tumblr dot com so that there was some purpose behind it. Since artistic skill improves over time I was not happy with the earlier ones so only about half of the designs are up here.
