Description
Sabrewulf from the Killer Instinct series.Drawn for & Killer Instinct tribute project.
I really liked the series back in the day, reminds me of the good ol' days when arcades were pretty much everywhere, and this was one of the series I could play only at arcades.
Though this one really stood out with it's unique animation, music and characters, and the combos, damn, it had THE best combo system of it's time.
Heh, and I think it's pretty obvious why I chose to draw Sabrewulf
KI had many awesome and memorable designs, but being a wolf & werewolf lover, Sabrewulf instantly became a fave of mine (even though I played best as Glacius |D), and even though he wasn't all that original when compared with other werewolf charas, but his fighting style sure made up for it.And then again, ripped pants only is pretty much what you'd normally wear after a transformation like that, and grabbing something to wear afterwards is kinda the least of your problems then

I wish werewolves in movies/tv these days looked like this again.

Heh, people wanted to be more original I guess, some look cool, some are utter rubbish (like the monkey-rat mix from harry Potter...), but you can't really blame people for trying

lol well the werewolves I'm talking about are from Twilight and True Blood. Both of which are just ordinary wolves only bigger. I think it's because girls don't want the hot main guy to turn into a gross hairy monster. XD That's not sexy at all! ha ha
The one in Harry Potter wasn't that bad to me because it was still on two legs like a man and grotesque/scary. But yeah, lol It did look like a monkey-rat mix. XD I never thought of that.
Hmm. I guess I can't blame them for trying but they should try harder. XD

Well, men turning fully into wolves IS the original way a lycanthrope morphed during a full moon in the original myths and folktales ;3
The anthropomorphic wolfman version emerged centuries after that ;3

Because wolves and werewolves look better in my style when mean and furious

Sabrewulf in your style, I don't know how I didn't see that coming. That's pretty good.

Saberwolf and Riptor the 2 badasses of Killer Instinct

For me these were Sabrewulf and Glacius, Riptor, Fulgore and Cinder being second place.
I never played it on the SNES though, I never had one, only my cousin, so if I ever borrowed it from him, all I could play was the games he owned |D (though he had FFVI and Breath of Fire 2, and I could play KI at the arcade, so I sure wasn't complaining).
