Wow JAX007! You've done it again! I never pictured Kabal to look like that, but you have brought my Imagination to reality ! The Raiden concept looks awesome, very nice Indeed. Everything looks so perfect on this artwork...I really dont know what to say ! Good Job, like always! By the way, why did you make Kitana so plain =(...No offence, but it's need more texture and stuff, if you get my drift. But please dont take it the wrong way, it's quite good! Damn...when are you going to color this ?! I want to view it in color!

Dragon points: 5/5 !!

OMFG, those kick a$$.

i agree with noobsaibot, that is an interesting concept of Kabal, which makes it very awesome(sp?). Kitana looks as lovely as ever. and the Raiden gives him the Dymio(sp? again) look, really setting him apart from the rest of the gods. nice job.

5/5

Wow, once again I am amazed and impressed by your wonderful creativity. Kabal looks simply AWESOME, I must stress this. I love the more revealing look to his face, its about as near to perfect as one can get. His respirator is also extremely detailed, and the redesign of it looks great. It also gives him a sort of 'crazed' looked, and I love the tossled hair.

As for Kitana, she looks pretty nice as well. Her costume is overall very well detailed, and I love the little design you put on the fan she is raising into the air. I also like her hair better this way than braided like it was in MKDA, it gives her more of a 'princess' feel. To include the second fan still closed and holstered was also something cool.

Raiden looks magnificent; I totally like this look. Makes him look alot more 'human' appearing than he normally does. He looks more 'wise' appearing as well, rather than just the powerful force he usually appears as. The hair fits him well too, I would most defiantly love to see it this way in MK6. Again, the chinese markings are a nice touch. This Raiden appears more... noble and truthful to me.

I quite like all these concepts, they all seem to be very well thought out, excellent job.

Excellent artistic skills man. Very nicely done. I like the Kitana costume a lot, along with Raiden however his face looks too much like Shang Tsung or some sorcerer. I never really liked Kabal anyway so... yeah.

WOAH!, absolutley amazing work Jax. Cant wait to see if you color it. Kabal looks so kool. So as do the rest but Kabal to me looks the best. 5/5 dragons.

Amazing! Simply Amazing!
Kitana, well it looks similar to the previous Kitana, but the Raiden and the Kabal designs are wonderfuls!

Im glad you people like it. :)

As for Kitana, I know that people are getting tired of the same old female ninja costume that she and all the other female 'ninjas' had. But I tought that if one of them should keed that look it sould be Kitana. I will change the look of the other female ninjas drasticly, though.

really awesome pencil drawings 5/5 , but are we supposed to rate this.. or wait for the finished pictures ? I guess it doesn't matter either way, great job anyway !

I have no intention of coloring these character concepts. If someone wants to color it, then feel free to do it. :P

It would take too much time to draw all 20+ charcters and color them all.

why dont you at least shade them? and give them a little texture? your lines are freakin awesome, but the pictures need some depth.

Even without shading these pictures are better than porn!

Wow! I really like your concepts!!!
I can't wait to see your concept of Jade *hint hint*

WOW! Holy shit... that is absolutely fucking amazing. Dude, you should work with Midway. What pisses me off is that your models look like 1000 times better than Midway's. I can't wait to see what they'll do with the characters this time around.

Like everyone says, Kabal looks amazing. I love the simplicity of his outfit, and like everyone said... his eyes are menacing. I like that you don't have his eyes covered. The respirator idea is excellent.

I think I fell in love with Kitana. First of all, I love the POSE! It's great the way she has her feet turn and her hand over her head. She looks great! The hair is great, the outfit, the fans... I love the earrings as well. And her mask is great too. I like how you went back to the basics of Kitana - yet made them better. I really love this!

Rayden - OH MY GOD! He looks sooo incredible. This is what Raiden should look like! He looks old, wise... AMAZING. I love his hair and his beard. He just looks absolutely amazing. I dont know what else to say about this besides the fact that is in truly incredible!

I can't wait to see your Sonya...

THOSE are OUTSTANDING!
My only suggestion is to not use so exagerated shin and forearm curvature. It is a very interestin style you use in regards to that- but I think it tends to make a bow-legged look or just a little unnatural. But all bone curvature gripes aside, this artwork is PRO.

Carry my babies...

I love these concepts, they're great! My favorite one is Kitana. :)

You don't like my style? :P

I know what you mean but I actualy like to exagerate bone curvatures a bit.

nah- its cool dude. Just kitana looked a little pigeon toed... and the baraka in past pic looked bow legged, but its all good. The curvature issue is just my opinion and obviously isnt a bad thing, it just isn't my preference. Obviously everyone loves it, so keep up the good work. :)

omfg that is sweet %/% dragons!!!

I "really" like your drawings, man. They totally look kool! Rayden looks like the old Shang Tsung though from MK1 but its all good.

That's really good. I'd love to see it in color! Aww, you made Rayden old looking *cries*. But very nice concept. I forgot what rating I gave it. I think it was 4.5/5 or something.

Damn, Jax007, I've always liked your work, nice drawings. Raiden looks like a warlord or something but is pretty cool.

Peace.

Excellent concepts.
I would have to say that Kabal is my favourite, he looks real angry, lol.
The only little thing I could see that looks "odd" (or at least to me), is Kitana's leg(s).
Her right leg looks a little curvy. Can you actually do that? Maybe just me. Her legs also look a little long to me.

But either way, I've always enjoyed your work before, and this is no exception.
Looking forward to the next three you announced .

Kabal is perfectly done here! It's true he looks very menacing and psycho crazy! Which is how I've always pictured him. This is truly excellent! My gosh! Can it be any better?

Kitana's hair looks so much better than it usually does! It's pretty. I like the way you made the fan, but what's that little butterfly design there? That's the only thing I don't like lol.

Raiden...my...he looks so peaceful! The peaceful Thunder God! He looks very good, nice costume. It's all great.
