Ever since I was a kid, I loved Street Fighter. I would take every opportunity to learn things about the game, and its characters. I made the first, but certainly not the last of a series of original characters based in the world of Street Fighter. My wife actually taught me how to lay paint on better and it would not have turned out this smoothly without her assistance. What you may not immediately catch on to is that his tights are the colors of the Greek flag, The Golden Lion title is a reference to the Nemean Lion of mythology and even his name Artaxias means "Lion-King."
Oh, and I posted this guy as a WIP about a month ago in the joecustoms critiques Facebook group, and a number of people told me that it needed a belt. Well, thanks to input and labor from a pal, I was able to provide the figure a belt fitting of a champion.
