Description Here's a little thing I've been warming up with for a while. It started out as a design exercise, to see if I could portray the characters from Kung Fu Panda as humans, and still keep them recognizable as the characters they are. Of course, these two are the easiest ones, but I never got around to the furious five or either of the villains.

I think Po needs to be a bit softer, he is quite obviously a strong mo-fo here. More like a Sumo wrestler; a lot of them look pretty flabby until you see them in action.

Still a great picture though.

Thanks! A legit critique, to be sure. I've never been good at drawing squishy people (even though I am one lol)

I would still watch the show, and Po now looks like a profession Strong man.

And Shifu reminds my of the Crazy strong transforming Demon from Gantz

Thanks! Yeah, that was kind of my take on Po. In the movies, it's sort of shown that his size and natural power are what make him threatening in a fight, despite the fact that he just looks like a jolly fat guy, so I played that up. I actually just got around to watching the newer CG Gantz on Netflix, and man, that old guy is creepy!! I can see a resemblance, but mine is a little more based on the old guy ninja from Ninja Scroll.

Ah, I see, I see.

I still like it all the same. Personally If I had to be any shape I would take the one you did for Po there, strong and soft all at the same time!!

Thanks!  I don't know if I'll ever get around to drawing the Furious Five, but I'd like to one day.

Ha! Nailed it. That's pretty much exactly what Po would look like, in my opinion.Planning to draw the five as well?
People have been doing this a lot, and for some reason they always draw Tigress looking like a Ballet dancer...

I originally wanted to include the five and Tai Lung, but it seemed like I just never had time to work on this piece, so I just posted these two. I think if I were to take on Tigress, she would look pretty much like Michelle Waterson (she's a kickboxer/mma fighter). I think I might even giver her tattoos to emulate her tiger stripes. That's just a thought, though.
