Observations
Across all four renders, the style combines heavily visible, broad painted strokes with rough ink-like contour lines and dense hatch marks. It uses a forceful blue, black, and red-orange palette, presenting ominous urban scenes and tightly packed, angular hooded or masked characters with high contrast and a dark emotional charge.
