Shiroi Eiji

ZIN, known to SNK fans as Shiroi Eiji (白井影二), is a free illustrator, comic book artist, and dessin drawing teacher who previously worked for SNK. His alias namesake originated from the alternate palette swap of Eiji Kisaragi from Art of Fighting 2 (one of his favorite games at SNK). He is a lover of American comics (especially X-men) and 1/6 scale miniature crafts. His art while working at SNK were stylized ink paintings, made with dynamic brush strokes and gestures posed with a subtle flow of motion. He is best known for being the main illustrator and character designer for the Samurai Shodown series. FRONT LINE is his personal webpage.
