Kenki Fujioka
Kenki Fujioka (Japanese: 藤岡 建機) is an illustrator and the author of the Medarotter Rintarou, Medarot R, and Medarot Navi manga series. He also designed many of the characters and Medarots introduced in Medarot Navi, including Granbeetle and Sonic Stag.
His art style is very different from Rin Horuma's, with more "chibi" style characters and Medarots and more attention to mechanical details. Many of the Medarots designed by Rin Horuma were given more stylized designs when they appeared in the manga, which were later reused in the game version of Medarot Navi.
In addition to the manga and Medarot Navi designs, Fujioka also provided the character art for the PS1 game Medarot R and created the original designs for Arcbeetle, Tyrrellbeetle, and Blossomail. During his time working on Medarot, he also ran a personal doujin circle called "Omecha-ya" (written 御機械屋) and included the word "Omecha" written in English on many of his designs.
In recent years, his notable work includes creating designs and tie-in manga for the Gundam "Advance of Zeta" side story. He returned to Medarot with Medarot S: Unlimited Nova, providing the designs for KreuzBaizan, Gothic Mates, Charles de Nurse and Black Cruz.
