Been playing around a bit with realistic AI image generation when I thought of the idea of making a small Zako project out of it. Using the Realistic Vision V2.0 model, I've generated nine images based on the prompt description of the Zakos in Sunset Riders. Exactly nine because that is the number of times that these girls appear in the game. In the Arcade game, these girls are presented uniformly as cute albeit inept criminals. I've opted to add more individuality to these girls and weave a sort of narrative around them:
Sunset Riders: the Dynamite Ribbons
In the lawless American frontier, the eccentric Englishman Richard Rose has created a criminal web built upon hierarchies and organizations. This enforced organization is evident in the criminal sisterhood known as the Dynamite Ribbon Girls. Composed entirely of blonde cowgirls, these sisters in crime are primarily known for wielding the good old boom stick, creating explosions both in the destructive and sensual sense. Although often associated with explosive nitroglycerine, Richard Rose values these girls more for their ability to sway and manipulate those influential people in society. Their combat abilities, though, leave a lot to be desired. Endangering themselves and their comrades, these cowgirls are often careless when handling their TNT explosives during firefights. To compensate, these girls would rely on the Dynamite Ribbon signature of playing coy to extract themselves out of sticky situations. The average lawman would stiffen and blush unable to handle the feminine charms of these cowgirls, giving enough time for the average male mook to shoot them right where they stand. Despite their notoriety, the Dynamite Ribbons only consist of nine members spread across Richard Rose's criminal empire.
Although not quite veterans, Amber and Eryn have seen their fair share of action with lawmen and the usual fat gullible official. These two Dynamite Ribbons have been given the short end of the stick being assigned under the penny-pinching Simon Greedwell. Most other criminal heads are usually very liberal when distributing stolen loot; Greedwell, on the other hand, wouldn't spare a dime if his mother's life depended on it. Frustrated with this whole affair, Amber and Eryn are forced to look into alternative ways of satisfying their material wants. Fortunately for Eryn, the area that she is assigned to is close to the home of a corrupt sheriff that she has wrapped around her finger. Donning the tightest and shortest pair of pink hot pants in her wardrobe, Eryn is confident that she could suck the sheriff dry for all he is worth. Amber is in a less favourable spot, unable to contact and leech on her victims whom she calls her "little darlings."; she is forced to find extra earnings from amongst her ilks. It isn't a bad arrangement by any means, Amber quite enjoys keeping company with the boys during the night, and the arising conversations, surprisingly, could be pretty thoughtful.
A trio of Dynamite Ribbons also operates in the criminal-infested town of Bloody Gulch, governed by the tyrannical mass murderer Dark Horse. As the oldest Dynamite Ribbon in town, Harper acts as the default leader of the trio. She walks with an air of self-confidence much warranted, given her instrumental role in the downfall of Bloody Gulch. Playing the role of mistress to the elites of Bloody Gulch, Harper has tricked the mayor into surrendering the town to Richard Rose. The uniforms of these girls would, understandably, offend the sensibilities of respectable women. However, Emilin's choice of dress is the most daring out of all the Dynamite Ribbons. Unlike Harper, Emilin despises the hypocritical facade of polite society, preferring to gallivant with the dregs and plebs of Bloody Gulch. Promising irresistible favors, Emilin has successfully swayed numerous law enforcers and vigilante groups to join the Criminal fold.
Millie is perhaps the most unique out of the Dynamite Ribbons due to her taboo preference for women over men. The women of Bloody Gulch, as in any other town, are the purveyors of gossip, and such idle talks can be quite indispensable for the intelligent criminal. Millie's job is to get intimate with the barmaids, burlesque dancers, and farmer's daughters, coaxing them to reveal any delicate information potentially useful to Richard Rose's criminal enterprise. Millie is often teased by the rest of the Dynamite Ribbon girls because she is not as well-endowed as them; this is a source of major insecurity for poor Millie. However, Millie does afford a smile every time she hears her criminal sisters complain of chaffing on their breasts.

At the foot of the mountain which supports Richard Rose's mansion, the Dynamite Ribbons, and Rose's other bandit groups have established their main headquarters. Here, we can find the founder and head honcho of the Dynamite Ribbons, Victoria. Although age has slightly withered her beauty, Victoria is still respected as an important matriarch figure by Richard Rose's wider gang. Victoria no longer "takes to the field" like her sisters. She retains the more important role of coordinating the group's courtesan infiltration efforts. Always by her side, Anne acts as a drill sergeant of sorts and recruiter to the Dynamite Ribbon group. This is a post she has inherited from the more senior Harper. Having recently recruited the still very young Eve and Beckie, Anne is determined to shape these girls up, making them worthy of the Dynamite Ribbon fame.
Just reaching twenty, Eve is perhaps too overzealous in trying to prove to Anne that she has mastered the Dynamite Ribbon art of seduction. Despite her best efforts, however, Eve could never really pin a man down once she got his initial attention. Anne has to remind Eve constantly that it takes more than just physical attraction to be a successful Dynamite Ribbon. On the other hand, the problem with the barely eighteen-year-old Beckie is that she is just too shy in all the things that she does. Despite these issues, Anne is confident that these young ladies would one day become successful official members of the Dynamite Ribbon group. She can't help but smile thinking about the bright future of their small criminal sisterhood.
Unfortunately, Anne's optimism would soon prove to be misplaced. Word is spreading in the criminal underworld that a group of expert gunslingers known as the Sunset Riders are hellbent on the destruction of Richard Rose and his goons. With the incoming onslaught, the days of the Dynamite Ribbons are perhaps numbered. Will the girls be able to soften the hearts of the Sunset Riders as they have done with previous lawmen? Or will they receive swift and brutal justice? Only time will tell...
