I tried to hint at a deserted industrial compound for this Outworld scene. Hopefully to help add to the backstory that Outworld is dying.
Shao Kahn
The Shao Kahn MK11 design is pretty bad ass, so I based this statue sculpt very heavily on it. This was only a quick concept sculpt which I then aged up for the images.
Kabal is a little stuck, standing off against Kano, which was an early idea before Liu Kang.
These concepts were done using the quary location as reference.
A quick concept paint over using a VFX plate (inset). To show what the BG might be. The dragon here is placeholder.
