Shinkiro (森気楼) (born December 14, 1962), whose real name is Toshiaki Mori, is a Japanese illustrator and conceptual artist currently employed by Capcom. Shinkiro's art style is well known among fans and the gaming community for his realistic take on character design, due to his use of shading and lighting, rather than an animated approach that is commonly seen in manga or anime.
Biography
Prior to joining Capcom, Shinkiro was employed by SNK, where he provided the character designs and cover illustrations for several of their most famous franchises, including The King of Fighters and Metal Slug. In 2000, Shinkiro was laid off due to SNK's bankruptcy, some time after that he was offered a job by Capcom.
Shinkiro has also done covers for American comics such as Spider-Man Unlimited and UDON's Street Fighter comic series.
