Here's some sketch ideas I had for the same character.

Here's the reference I used for the painting.

I changed the costume to suit the more Japanese style of Hiryu's costume, Though I really like Kung fu so I had to give him a sash:P

This is an interesting take on the character. The painting and concept for Strider looks more like a rural or feudalistic Japan Strider.

I don't think the green and yellow color scheme works really well as that just screams for attention.

I see your point on it looking like a rural style, yeah because I didn't put in any graphic shapes into it. Yellow? hmm, gah, yes the color shifted a little from the scan and me playing with the levels... It's a tad more tan in the original. Yes the color sceme screams attention, but this is a video game ninja!! Hehe good point, thanks for the crit, back to the drawing board for me:)
