Today, for my new Kamen Rider art, I decided to go back to the Showa Era, and try out a Rider that debuted forty years ago from 2022, all the way back in 1982. In 1982, Kamen Rider ZX aired, and he is one of my favorite Showa Riders. Now, I went and did him, mixing in his original look with his SIC Figure. When his SIC figure was released, it showed him with more ninja weapons, like a Katana with a scabbard, a Kunai dagger and a chain flail, and I wanted to have ZX with a Katana out of all the weapons. This was hard to design, which was surprising given how the designs of the Riders were like back before they got really complex. Anyways, as usual, I did the helmet first, and then did the body. I had to use several references, since I was tracing over the SIC Figure design. Still, I managed to get it looking as accurate as possible, as I struggled to get in a lot of the detail. I almost forgot the scarf, but I managed to put it in, if you look closely enough. Afterwards, I did the ZX Belt, and lastly, the Katana. Even though only his SIC figure was seen with it, and not his official form, I had to improvise to make it look right. I gotta say, I am really proud of how Kamen Rider ZX here turned out, and I hope you like it too, especially since I will be showing off his Katana, Belt and helmet later on throughout the week. What do you think? Please enjoy!
