Of the Fire Emblem games I've played, Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn were my favourites. That being the case, Ike wound up being my main since Smash 4 on Wii U (I got to the Brawl party a bit late). I noticed that I somehow hadn't drawn a good picture of Ike to date - just some sketches on paper. So, I figured it was about time I drew him. It went pretty smoothly since I'm very familiar with his appearance thanks to playing tons of Smash 4 and Smash Ultimate. I like his adult version better than young Ike, so that's the design I went with. Ike has a lot of cool moves to choose from, but I went with his back+air attack, 'Repositioning Slash'. I suppose I think it's his coolest looking attack, and it's pretty satisfying to hop behind an unsuspecting random and sneak in this quick attack to kill them when they least expect it.

Time taken: 5 hours and 45 minutes.
