I think this fight cemented Knight as my favorite member of the Patriot Initiative; he's easily the most fun to draw and has the best design. Granted, it could also be Cassidy; I do like what a massive, unrepentant asshole the guy is.... ..... Oh, wait, shit, Paxton... Hm... Paxton doesn't count, does he? I mean, we see him outside the group all the time, and he has the most independent screentime. Seems really unfair to include him.
But yeah, either way, this was a pretty fun fight; Misty's freakishly-agile fighting style against a hulk of muscle whose main strategy seems to be rugby tackling. Made for some good opportunities to draw motion and sell some shots. I really loved getting Misty to do the tuck-and-roll under Knight's legs. Made me think of Vega from Street Fighter, even though I'm not entirely sure that's even a move he has.
Think after the Fulton fight turned out less-than-stellar on the art department, I tried to pick up the quality of the lineart and shots for the Knight Fight.
Yeah, pretty happy with this one, though do think the background could be flashier - kind of a consequence of how we opted to frame the scene though, live and learn I guess.
Not entirely sure how much to actually say about it though, although that might in part due to having just watched Mania night two and it being a very... mixed experience.
Eh, not gonna dwell on that. In either case, yeah, really wanted to put Knight over as kind of a big, menacing force here, even if Misty is managing to keep on the move against him thus far. I dunno, coming up blank but hoping everyone like this one.
