Commission for SteelKomodo

Hey, another Rider Comm. How 'bout that? This here is a Rider that I really ended up liking the concept/design for, the martial-arts themed Kamen Rider Goken!

Now the commissioner already has an extensive bit of lore behind this guy on his own page, and I'm sure there's more to come at a later point, so I'll just stick to the design aesthetics here. Goken here was very much designed with Zero-One, Agito, and Kabuto in mind. As well as a tiny bit of inspiration from Dairanger, Gekiranger, and a bit of Kamen Rider OOO. A mostly sleek, mostly simple design meant to be less flashy then other Riders without skimping out on the details, befitting of the martial arts thematics going on here.

The belt is something entirely of my own design. Using the kyutama-esque transformation trinkets as buttons on each hip, Goken here can transform into a variety of stances, or equip a series of gimmick-form armaments. Here we see him displaying his default Tiger Stance, as well as two of his gimmick-forms: Spark-Claws and Gale-Runner. The gimmick forms were entirely my decision to add, mostly because it was the most interesting way to include the sash he had requested in the design.

A shocking amount of time and thought went behind this guy's design. I think this is the most above-and-beyond I've ever gone with a Rider commission. To the point where I'm almost upset that this isn't my character. I'm ecstatic about how this guy turned out in the end, especially the subtle yin-yang design I managed to sneak into the belt. It came out superbly well, in my opinion.

Do not use without permission.
Enjoy.
