SF 2 artwork or SF 2 CE artwork?
>>10924230Ryu looks more like a young man in the SF 2: WW art. I prefer it.He started looking like a monkey, beginning with CE here.
>>10924230Left = SquidwardRight = Bengus signature SF2 animated movie artAlso fuck post bengus SF3 art and onwards, SF2 and CVS by shinkiro is peak ryu
>>10924278Agreed, Chun-li also looks younger and cute
>>10924230World Warrior's portraits were laughably bad, but at the same time the others don't have this face for Ryu and Ken sprite.
>>10924391Eliza's sprite always made me laugh in WW.
>>10924402Huge improvement in CE
>>10924376she looks like she's playing chess
>>10924413She just destroyed Dhalsim's head a la Scanners.
>>10924402Oof, I cant believe they ever okay'd this.
>>10924391I want this brought back.
>>10924230Neither. I'll go with the GOAT.
>>10924579>dat Ryu and KenThe World Warriors? More like the World-weary! DOH HOHOHO!
>>10924230For me, it's Master Fighter VI.
>>10924230SF2 only for Blanka's loss art.
>>10924750John McCain energy
>>10924745>mongoloid Balrog, Guile, and SagatSome IQ points were lost in that knockoff. At least Ken still has his rapeface.
>>10924376Nah she looks derpy, inafune himself did the artwork for WW, which lead us to this.
>>10924407CE is the true version of SF2, before HF was made due to all the bootlegs of CE
>>10924579Stiff action figures of short people
>>10924745Based
>>10924750I have this thing. I wanted M.Bison's one because it reminded me of some local dictator, but these were random and was a gift from a friend.
>>10924230Prefer WW artCE sprite looks like Ryu doing a Ken facial expression, it looks unfittingRyu should look more stoic
>>10924407At the same time Eliza’s sprite in CE also looks like it doesn’t belong in the same game much like the WW one
>>10924832This looks fine though
>>10924832Eliza actually looks ok there, shame about everything else.
>>10925086>>10925075
>>10925069To be fair, this was before the characters' personalities were truly set in stone.Ken's portrait has him looking pissed off when he's known to be more good-natured and a bit cocky.
>>10924832>>10925075>>10925086https://www.spriters-resource.com/arcade/streetfighter2/sheet/117308/Here are the different versions
Given that Ken canonically dyes his hair, I often wonder if they'd ever do a game where his hair is instead its natural black.
>>10925106Only bootleggers did it
>>10924435It makes sense in that they were putting things in the game that made the devs laugh. Think it was an interview with Akiman that mentioned it, but that could have been more about which moves they put in the game. Still garish though, the revision looks way better.
>>10924745
>>10925314Are we sure this isn't Fist of the North Star?
>>10924943thats awesome
>>10925376>ryu making lainey face
>>10925348>Illustration: Tetsuo HaraGee I wonder
>>10925613I legit did not notice that text in the corner.
>>10924230When will KEN do the hadouken in the attract screens?
>>10924230I don't keep up with Street Fighter story, but the WW portrait is more in line with how I envisioned his personality. The CE portrait looks like an angry, bloodthirsty lunatic.
>>10925390
>>10924230The portraits (and series) peaked with WW.
>>10924402KEK, that's gotta be intentional though.
>>10924402That's a blow up doll
>>10925958Only in the Alpha series.
>>10924745>>10925314SOMEONE IS COPYING EACH OTHER!!!
>>10925086she looks like a summon from one of the 16-bit final fantasy games
>>10924376orange chun i is peak chun li
>>10924745That's a long-ass claw.
We can agree that Super has the best portraits.
https://www.vgmuseum.com/end/snes/a/sf2ken.htmThey even fixed Eliza's sprite on the SNES port (and changed the endings, they ported the originals for Turbo)
>>10928109She looks even better there.
I have some crazy ass street fighter comics from Asia somewhere. Like early 90's ish... They have the most insane artwork and I for the life of me cant find any records of these existing. Next time I visit my parents I'm definitely going dig them out. A friend who was Vietnamese got them from an older cousin.
>>10928697More crazy than Malibu's run with the Ken scalp scene?
>>10928701>Sagat using a knifeI can't I just can't.
>>10928706Imagine how differently the first SF game would've went if Sagat just stabbed Ryu.
>>10928701Lol, Malibu comics are hilariously bad.
For me, it's the SFII IBM voice actinghttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqq4lTbuJ8s
>>10929124only chu-li image? no cammy image too?
>>10929804>Dhalsim's voice
>>10929124>you will never get to wax Chun-li's coinslot inniepussWhy even live
>>10929829
>>10924750pretty sure that's from Total Recall
>>10930449lily hawk sighting
>>10931505is she though? iirc they never meet each other.
>>10929124
>>10931529
>>10931529>>10931626>>10931630Go jack off you fucking loser.
>>10930449Of course Guile is the lifeguard
>>10924230Super > hf > ce > wwIt literally just gets better as it goes along
>>10924230clearly different people
>>10932787>hf > ceAre there even differences between those two aside the palette changes?
>>10929804Holy shit at Dhalsim
>>10927915The necks are simply out of this world
>>10931529Cammy is for me the most sexy female character in street fighter history.
>>10929804SAARR DO NOT REDEEM THE CARD I WILL MEDITATE AND DESTROY YOU
>>10930449VEGA NO
>>10932848Ryu died during the events of SF2 but Capcom secretly replaced him with a double hoping you wouldn't notice.
>>10927915always thought these were ridiculous.Boxer looks silly, dictator looks like a fucking alien now instead of a scary authoritarian, sooo many honda teeth, and everyone is maximum-squarejaw except fei long
>>10933529Even though S added neat characters and ST apparently has the most beloved mechanics of the SFII series, I definitely think the presentation took a big hit. Overly bright backgrounds, bad sound (poor Guile sounds like he was castrated), strange character portraits, ugly UI elements. At least the newcomer sprites are fine.
>>10933438Same. I am extremely glad that they had Kylie wear the real costume for the game, and oiled her up for the shoot to boot. And of course she loved it, she'salways been a famous minx.
>>10931505Where?
>>10933503Wait, is this canon?
>>10933580FINNER. More.
>>10936287If Ken dyes his hair, does Mika dye her hair?Does Karin?
>>10929804Gotta love how voice acting used to be some random dude spending 5 minutes with the included discount microphone that came with his PC doing the most generic voices imaginable. The best part is Chun Li absolutely 100% being a dude in a super weak falsetto.
>>10936287>flip phonesa whole era went by
>>10932890Nowhere to be seen, it's clear you're aggressively retarded, stop posting anytime.
>>10933580There are high definition photos they used for this at Capcom HQ. Remember, they're holding them hostage.
>>10938613forgot evidence
>>10938223Just look at it, the nose, brow, cheekbones, even the headband color are all different.
>>10938617Kylie was so hot at that time. Arguably the best casting of the movie once you see her in the proper costume, Raul Julia notwithstanding.
>>10933580I wish they'd do a remaster of this game, could give Deejay his colorful pants via AI/editing and finish up the unfinished Fei Long character.
>>10938819>Arguably the best casting of the movie once you see her in the proper costumeIn most videogames cammy wears a thong leotard. Kyllie only wears a normal leotard in the "street fighter the movie" videogame". What a shame.
>>10938305Maybe Japanese love to dye their hair, that would explain redhead Ryu.
>>10939759who redid this protrait?
>>10938589street fighter alpha is meant to take place in the 1980s, pretty advanced for the time
>>10938819>at that timestill is.
>>10938609>Nowhere to be seenyou can hear Dhalsim's voice at the end of the video retard.>stop posting anytime.Posting
The real question should be Cammy or Chun-Li?
>>10929804That's korean bootleg SF 2https://youtu.be/GOsv_QA1jrI?si=aRS1lO8xcumh0p5j
>>10940243Cammy.
>>10931643last place to be calling anyone that incel
>>10924745I love when people try and fail to rip off Tetsuo Hara's artstyle.
>>10940243Chunli in cammy outfit
>>10933529what's silly about Boxer's? He's a prizefighter, him making an absurd cocky face is totally within reason. it's not even physically implausible, we saw from this SF6 making-of that it's very easy for people to make those "silly" faces.
>>10931529Yes
>>10928706>Oh, so you expect me to scalp him using my feet? Don't be stupid.
>>10944798oh yes
>>10945198>>10938819>>10938617And thats why the 90s and the early 2000s were the best times fore videogames and even for comic too: because in those times the thong leotards were mandatoiy in almosts every videogame or comic.
>>10944925whomst
>>10944891Ed does the same face.
>>10939759always thought that was color palette limitations tbqh
>>10933529>dictator looks like a fucking alien now instead of a scary authoritarianSo you're saying he's more accurate to his inspiration now, being Yasunori Kato
>>10947347Pretty much
>>10927039Also pure red dictator.
>>10948548Major upgrade with the anime art, what Capcom did with pixel art back then was nothing short of amazing, they did with keyboards too, they just moved the cursor with the keys and toggled the pixels color.
>>10948548Ken is the only one without changes in SF and SF CE
