Shang Tsung MKII (Flux 2 Klein)

Finish Him! Shang Tsung.. wins. Peenality.

I used to be pretty bad ass playing MKII with Shang Tsung back in the day (well, at least against my friends). While most of my friends typically played as the other more popular characters like Scorpion or Sub-Zero, I for some reason gravitated towards the chiseled, bare chested, character with the goatee and those dreamy haunted glowing eyes. Go figure.

I set out to create this character to see how well I could treat very low-res pixelated source images to a modern realistic model with high fidelity - turned out it was a bit of a challenge at first but then after tweaking my image restoration workflow a bit it was fairly straight forward.

Since it's me, I went ahead and spiced up the dataset in a theme appropriate way - that way I can use it to easily photo-edit existing images with a glowing green peenie or I guess use it to add glowing eyes with Klein's Edit mode. Not that I have a lot of use for that, but hey it's there in case the odd reason were to arise.
