This is another character whom I have yet to see many Microheroes done of, and surprisingly there are only two Microhero variations of her. So, I suppose this would be the third variation and my take on none other than Dead or Alive's main protagonist and heroine, Kasumi the Kunoichi of Destiny.

This by no mean was an easy Micro to create. Let me say that the outfit is actually Mai Shiranui's outfit simply re-colored and heavily cannibalized to resemble Kasumi's Mugen Tenshin outfit. What was added on was of course the sleeves and Mai Shiranui's kunoichi outfit was re-colored to blue. It is not easy coloring something to a shade of blue which the Dead or Alive 2: Hardcore variation of the Mugen Tenshin outfit resembles. Sometimes, I felt as if I was coloring blind but thankfully I had three shades of blue to use. The gloves are also another recolored and cannibalized variant of Mai Shiranui's gloves, so that was something easy to rework.

What was the hardest to create were the pads on the legs. The white stockings were easy to find but the pads over the shins was something of a bitch to re-create. Good lord while they seem to work right now, they just don't seem to translate real well for the feet of this particular micro and the base I had to work with. But I managed to get a character done whom I've wanted to try my hand at.

Kasumi here was very difficult in getting to get rendered in a Microhero. I have had A LOT of problems with this particular character, especially uploading her online because while the pixel work and shading and even the coloring could be seen correctly in the original file.. when uploaded online ANYWHERE such as Photobucket and Tumblr, the blue pixels bled in and turned this weird purple-blue color whenever the original PNG file was uploaded. So to fix this problem, I had to turn the file format into a GIF, but DeviantArt's submission feature doesn't seem to recognize the GIF file... And the weird thing about this is, the colorization problem seemed to only occur when I uploaded it directly from my Windows XP computer, but when uploading it from the new Windows 8 the PNG file doesn't seem to suffer any discoloring and the pixel work could be seen just fine.

So if anyone is seeing the blue being more purple in hue and not seeing the detailed pixel work, please let me know and I'll re-upload it as soon as DeviantArt's new submission feature manages to recognize GIF files. Seriously, they dropped the ball with this submission feature.

So without further hesitation, here is Kasumi of the Mugen Tenshin!
