On artist Sergey Svistunov‘s Mortal Kombat art, Kabal and Shao Kahn (with Sub Zero hands) look like members of a vicious, post-apocalyptic gang from Mad Max, and not characters of a game with mystic realms and gods.
Their masks are so badass. There’s a bunch of characters from the artist below, check out the rest on his DeviantART page. Even Cyrax looks like something from a abandoned, post-war building in the middle of the wasteland.

They’re well made, but I don’t get your apocalyptic vibe, they just look like MK characters to me…
yeah and outland is basically an apocalyptic wasteland already, its not really a new spin. But like you said, very well done
The second one looks more like Shao Kahn than Sub Zero…
