Shinkiro
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Shinkiro (森気楼 Shinkirō?) (born December 14, 1962) is the alias of Toshiaki Mori; a Japanese illustrator and conceptual artist currently employed by Capcom. Prior to joining Capcom, Shinkiro was employed by SNK, where he provided the character designs and cover illustrations for their Neo-Geo games, including the King of Fighters and Metal Slug series, until he was laid off due to SNK's bankruptcy in 2000. At Capcom, Shinkiro has done several cover artworks and character designs for Capcom games, including Dino Stalker, Final Fight One, Dead Rising, Resident Evil: Dead Aim and the Game Boy Advance version of Super Ghouls 'n Ghosts. He has also done covers for American comics such as Spider-Man Unlimited and Udon's Street Fighter comic series. His techniques are well known among fans due to his use of shading and lighting giving his images a more realistic feel rather an animated look seen in manga or anime.
