Drawing a Random Mortal Kombat Character Every Day Until I Finish The Series Roster - Day 44

Motaro!!!

OKAY BEFORE EVERYONE JUMPS ME FOR DRAWING HIM IN HIS MK ARMAGEDDON COSTUME- there was no way in HEEEELLL i was gonna draw a full centaur body for these simple front facing pins- i’m sorry i just couldn’t fathom the hell on earth that would be for me and my anthro furry artist ass fjdbdjdbdjdn

So as a middle ground, for Motaro i did his Armageddon look with more visual details from his mk3 look, such as the paler chest/belly area, the spikes on his arms, the fully white eyes, and the tiger-esque stripes on the back of his horse body. So pleek mk community dont kill me for drawing him with two feet 😭😭😭

ANYWHO- for those who dont know, Motaru was introduced in Mortal Kombat 3, as the game’s new sub boss character replacing both Goro from the first mk, and Kintaro from mk2. This would expand abit of lore, as the centaurian race (which motaro is) would be heavily at war with the shokan (which Goro and Kintaro would be), and Shao choosing Motaro as his new right hand essentially meant that he began to show favor to the centaur. There’s alot of honestly really interesting storylines you could gather from this, especially with fellow mk3 newcomer Sheeva actually discovering the deeper truth of these implications before Shao had her killed. Unfortunately due to Motaro being well… a centaur, he’s made little to no appearances following his initial debut game. Mk Armageddon had him playable, but alas as my earlier paragraph will state, fans were not fans of his new bipedal appearance (and since it was MKA, his gameplay was rather barebones) MK1 recently brought him back in centaur form as a kameo, which no shade is probably the best way for his character to have been brought back considering the lack of real complications making hitboxes and such for the kameo fighters. Though i dont recall if he’s very good or often used as i dont play online much rjdbdjd

Anywho, despite the challenges i had alot of fun and am very proud of this pin!
