My Entry for 's 1 Dollar Fighter OCT.
I stumbled across this OCT while browsing through DA, and saw it as a great opportunity to have some fun and to work on several areas I've wanted to improve on, those being backgrounds, storytelling (as per the rules , single illustration of course) and most importantly meeting deadlines in timely fashion.
The pic itself is a simple little action pic I put together hurriedly overnight as a simple introduction but I did have fun with it as well as working the logo mascot into the composition for laughs .
So with the intro out of the way I present my entry into the tourney , The mystically empowered pro wrestler Hinotori !
Standing only 5 foot 5 and weighing only 135 pounds Hinotori is proof that big things come in small packages, possessing, a burning and unbreakable fighting spirit coupled with power, speed, and agility far beyond those of normal mortals and complete dominion over the element of fire, Hinotori seen by many as the human avatar of the legendary Phoenix from which she derives her name.
But not limited to simply those abilities, Hinotori is a life long devotee to the art of Professional Wrestling (it's still real to her dammit !) and has spent her life developing it and refining it to levels never before seen and in the process becoming a force to be reckoned with the world over.
Now the time has come to prove her abilities to the world by competing in the 1 Dollar Fighter tournament against the best opposition available.

Good luck! Give it you best shot man , your pixel art is strong and you got so much humor and originality on your side, Shotgun shotgun is a great concept with a lot of fun applications. So have fun and take it as far as you can!

Ooooo...Angelcrusher would approve of a female wrestler entering the tournament.
Funny pic man, shows abit of her personality to, although maybe not the best for reference for her costume. ^_^

Thanks ! And don't worry about costume reference I just finished putting together a model sheet with turnarounds in order to help folks out on the costume design.
I'll upload it in a few ,and place a link to it in this profile pic and in my journal.

It would be cool to make actual cards of your characters, just a thought

Wow, I have seen her often and now i get to learn some bits about her.
Oddly enough she reminds me a little of Air Master Aikawa Maki ^^

Yeah tho' I must admit I embellished a little bit on her abilities in order to give her a fighting chance against the big hitters in the tournament, but the nature of her character is there.
On that note I need to get back to Air Master, only seen ep 1.
