Lesser Known Waifu #5 - Adriana (Fighter Destiny 2)
Fifth in my "Lesser Known Waifu" series, here is Adriana, the Brazilan dancing-fighter from Fighter Destiny 2, a Nintendo 64 exclusive fighting game with lot of style, unique scoring system and a banging soundtrack and very unique characters.
Adriana is unfortunately very little known, but I liked her a lot the moment I saw her many years ago, when I was still a wee lad, and I decided that it was time to have her shine.
The idea behing that painting is that Adriana is entering into the Brazilan fighting stage by doing some acrobatics, so this artwork captures her as she is performing her entrance and she looks at her opponent.
She does not do that in-game, but I wanted to make her do something unique, because this artworks sub-series of mine needs the characters in unique stances and poses.
I also noticed that she is not sporting feathers on her hat but petals, but it was too late I already finished working on her - I went by memory lol.
This one took me 2 DAYS because of the goddamn vegetation - I am very slow at painting vegetation, I always screw up and have to redo some of it (I probably screwed how sunlight color work on palm-trees leaves lol), and the final result I am never satisfied with, but I guess it looks at least passable for a vegetation background.
Hope you like it!
