STREET SLASHER - Pennywise

"What if horror villains had their own fighting game. STREET SLASHER!" 💀🔪

PENNYWISE -
Pennywise is an ancient being of billions years old, settled on Earth, in Derry, Maine. Obsessed with the taste of meat with a bit of fear in them, Pennywise grew a peculiar curiosity when he learned about a world that knows no fear, known as the Apex Timeline.

The thought of causing fear in a man who never feared once, brings ecstasy to Pennywise. IT wants to taste it, a fear so delicate and unique.

About the design -
I had a lot of hesitation on this design, which side should I lean more, to the original design or the remake design? Both are very strong and unique in their own way. The original is colorful and goofy while having this unsettling feeling. The remake has a more gritty and grounded look which enhance the creepy look of Pennywise, more straight to the point.

I ended uo choosing to go for the remake color palette and gave a more round-ish fluffy shape to the outfit, to keep a "friendly" look.

The stomach design is a throwback to its nature as a Deadlights. Street Slasher being a fighting game, I also have to think about how those characters are fighting, and I don't really see Pennywise throwing jabs and highkicks 😂 so I centered its fighting style around his ability to morph and tap into its true nature as an ancient being.
Pennywise is definitely one of those easy to get into type character that people would want to ban in any tournament and have people mad.
