You know, I now consider myself a masochist. Why?
Yes, because I was contacted by one of the antagonists of "Streets of Rage" series- Shiva.
Well, this is clearly not Sparta. And all because of one little thing- spriting.
Yes, this arrogant bastard gives me extremely hard.
But anyway, it's my WIP, so...

Your sig is the intro to sfII. I am guessing that this wip is a character from street fighter manga?

No. I'm sorry, but but Joe after SF1 never appeared again. Even in manga.

That is really nice. Good luck to you on your project.

Thanks! I need it!

Looks good my friend, good luck

good work

So I took a little time out of my day today to gather up some information on Shiva, for your project. Make sure that if you are wanting to make him as close to the game as possible (when it comes to sprites and such) that his idle stance is like this:

Credits go to the Bare Knuckle wiki.

Notice how he kicks his left (viewer's right) foot somewhat. I would try and replicate that as his stance.

As I've read more about him, he has several signature moves that you could incorporate as well (you probably already know them, perhaps but just in case). For one, his Flaming Circular Kick, which I found the following reference for:

Of course, if you decide to use this signature move, add more emphasis on the flame (as there are plenty of interesting FX to use around the mugen world). I couldn't find other references for his other signature moves "Final Crash," "Handspring Palm Strike" and "Rising Kick." I did find some sprites of Shiva, however, that may be useful for you.

I personally feel his top should be a bit more low cut, as I've watched videos of him and notice that his chest is more exposed, and also maybe his hands could use some back and forth animations, such as opening and closing a fist. When he runs, I also noticed that small amounts of fire tread his feet as well, and that it is somewhat like a jump forward, but moves straightforward. Hope all of this helps.

wonderful! he is very good sprited!

Yeah, I'll will respect his original appearance. But it will be much more a custom version. So...
-I tried to make his hands more... angled... But it looked bad. So, if I will edit his stance- his upward part will stay a same.
-About "Flaming Circular Kick" I did'nt knew. And one interesting fact: my first planed "Victim of Redrawing" was Andy. Yes, he looks really close to Shiva. And sprites for special moves is also here. But I don't use HIM because of his really weird style os usual fight. So, I'm using now a Kim Kaphwan. Well, I think I can use Andy's legs and they will looks fine.
-Of course I planed 3 special moves: Of course a Final Crash, Flaming Roundhouse (2nd spritelist 2-nd row from down) and Hadou Palm (Yes, I think about new names for fanmade moves! ).
-With runing anim here will be some harder: I think for usual running Flaming Dash will looks some weird. So, here will be used a normak running anim. But I aslo notised, that AI loves to combine Run and Final Crash. HERE his original running anim will looks cool!

looks good

I'm sorry, but Andy's legs looks on Shiva like sh*t...
So, I'll try to find another way to make a classic stance.
