Mortal Kombat Karnage 2 by lightman2120 on DeviantArt (original) (raw)

So, I decided to do another Mortal Kombat drawing, with some more characters who I believe would fitted in with the previous batch that could’ve taken place in the fan game, Mortal Kombat Karnage. Smoke, Stryker, Quan Chi and Khameleon. Turns out okay, but I could’ve done better.

I wanted to give Smoke a look of my own design, but it didn’t turn out as I hoped and he came out with a more generic style. Stryker is a mix of the many ways he looked in the past, 3, Armageddon and 9. Quan Chi’s look is similar, inspired by how he looked in 4, DA/A, 9, X and even the live-action series, Mortal Kombat Legacy, hence the coat he now has and the red markings on his face. You may also notice the scar left by Scorpion’s spear and the stitches around his neck; some little details based on how he died in MKX. Khameleon highly resembles her Armageddon look with a few extra details and having the Falchion sword she used in the game. I figured she work well as the extra female character to have gone with Kitana in the selection screen of the fan-game.

It’s been too long since we played as some of these characters, especially Stryker and Khameleon. But I believe there is a chance that Khameleon has a kameo in MK1, yet nothing has been confirmed.

She’s only made a sight appearance in the trailer with Li Mei and Tanya, if no one else caught that before.

Despite that, I’m glad I was able to make this drawing, and hope I can in touch with my drawing skills a bit more, improve upon what I can do and make better versions of these in the future.

Until then, please enjoy some of the most underrated characters…and Quan Chi.
