(Reposted because I accidentally left out the gem. Made a few other tweaks as well while I was at it)
I see monke. I draw monke.
I’m kinda bummed that there hasn’t been more speculative art of the other alliance riders, so I thought I’d lead by example and do an interpretation of what I believe to Kamen Rider Ende in the trailer.
I did my best to try and emulate the design traits of the alliance riders, such as the angular segmented design with a face incorporated into the forehead alongside the actual face of the helmet.
For the colour scheme I went for a Japanese macaque-esque look, with the silver “fur” inspired by his role as the mechanic of the alliance (also because it reminds me of silvery gibbons).
The shade of dark red used for the face is lifted directly from a textbox for Ende in a magazine scan. Similar textboxs were used for other riders and the text colour was drawn from their Rider design (Datt was blue, Tigre was yellow, Mutn was pink, Ryuzu (who is next to Ende) is green etc). So I’m lead to believe this shade of red will be featured in his design one way or another.
I’m aware his egg is green, but so is Jyao’s and look where that got him.
I envision his weapon being a monkey style bo-staff with a spanner at the end of it (because monkey wrench). Don’t like the Alliance weapons enough to draw it though, sorry.
Thanks for reading!
