Tricky for the roster of Madness Warriors!

Original description:

So I had many thought processes for this one…

I added some rock onto the bottom of his stop sign that’s like a drill. I think Tricky should spin his stop sign for some of his attacks, like a Beyblade.

I made his design be a half-and-half kind of deal, though more subtle. I had those curvy, sharp bones on one side to signify being dead. The other side is just the clown part.

As for the fuzz that wraps around the body, it is a reference to the demon Tricky from the series, yes, but also it represents a chaotic and uncontrollable nature (like fire) engulfing most of his body. It’s why it’s wrapped around him, and also why it’s prominently on the “dead” half. It also helps in making him look more feral as well.

Oh yeah, and he’s just only wearing boxers here because of the fact that Koei Tecmo’s Warriors’s designs for women are always so skimpy and especially bare on the legs, and they don’t really do that to the men designs, so I did that to Tricky in spite. I think it’s in character anyway.

I still really like this design. Maybe I could tone down on the flashiness, but hey, it's a concept design. I can always work on it again.
