the new art is bunk imo. but i dont care about art. i just want arcade perfect gameplay.
I hear theyāre promising fanart as unlockables in the game, so thatās something to look forward to.
And that XCOPY Twelve pic is the coolest ever.
I think my biggest gripe with Laus work is that they all have 1 arm up and 1 arm down and most of them are standing on 1 leg. Just no variety in the expression and stances of the characters. I definitely would have preferred them to maybe run a competition or something and get some really inspired art out of the fans. That would have been amazing, and imagine how the fans would feel if their work was in the game for once. Thats real fan service. Cant complain too much about some art work though. It seems theyre doing an amazing job with the overall game and thats the most important thing and if aku is right then at least there will be some of this work there somewhere maybe.
Are you done?
This has nothing to do with the game itself.
Everyone is excited for the game. The art is trash though. Over rendered, stupid poses with generic lighting, yeehaww.
Look at Qās fucking hands. The art looks fine to you because youāre either blind or donāt care. I like good illustration, this is not good.
As for the game I am just hoping it runs like a cps3 board because if it does that will super great for practice. The art isnāt going to get in the way of anything but I can still see that it sucks.
Heās throwing a flying high knee. Itās easy to tell with the hips thrown out and left arm down.
The art is generic looking and thereās similar poses. I have them all saved and I want to use none of them for a sig or avy 
Sean and Elena, same exact pose, flipped on y-axis
He couldāve put a little more effort into them

IMO, 2nd Impact was a better package than 3rd Strike
-better music
-better stages
-losing art
Iām surprised no one mentioned in the thread that Elena and Sean have the same pose:
Edit: and of course as soon as I post I see that Mr. X mentions it. Way to go me.
The only new art that looks halfway decent is Necro and Chun, and even then they feel off as hell. And man is that Falcoon art so much better, epsecially from a personality perspective.
3rd strike has better music and stages imo. people just like 2nd impact because they havent seen it in every match video for the past 12 years.
2nd impact has horrible voice acting.
also the most important aspectā¦ 2nd impact is horrible in terms of gameplay compared to 3rd strike. 2nd impact is unplayable past the scrub stage.
One thing that I really liked about second impact was that there were two different kinds of air-parries you could do.
Also, this is the art you will be looking at as long as you play this game. Everyā¦timeā¦you play. (I would presume)
Seanās farting on that basketball before he tosses it at you. Thatāll teach you how to parryā¦
Other than the Chun (and Cammy) art. It seems that they picked him simply because heās gotten hot with the fans. Other than DC, alot of other companies, especially here in SE Asia have been using art from him or his studio.
As for the style, it does remind me of Shinkiro. Clean and technically proficient, but doesnāt feel dynamic at all.
Only during the title screen and menus, in game theyāre using rescanned old art.
Shinkiro has a problem with ebing dynamic but his art always comes off as striking, hell look at anytime he ever drew Geese and his CvS2 Hibiki or Vice.
Oh god, donāt remind me. Some of the characters were done pretty well, but the worst examples still stick with me the most. The Twins shout like 12 year olds, Necro sounds like a dofus and Ryu has a giant wad of cotton in his mouth.
Totally agree. I am kind of disappointed by some character artworks, Ken and Ryu specially. I donāt understand why Capcom does not hired Shinkiro to do the job as usual. He likely could produce first class arts. Check this : http://capcom.wikia.com/wiki/Shinkiro
EDIT : Shinkiro is the manā¦http://urban-muse.com/blog/Urban-Muse-Shinkiro-Retrospective/
It looks like cosplay and not the actual characters and his drawings suck, and lack life and style.
Itās not that important, sure, but Iāll feel a bit like Iām stepping in a cesspool before going to the beach every time I play.
how the fuck do you make elena unattractive
All these drawings are missing personality, in fact they donāt even look like hand drawn art they look like clay models on paper. Heās a good technical drawer but I think his style is too clean and has far too much care. Maybe heās drawing safely because heās working commercially and believes he canāt take many risks.
I think Gill looks how Iād expect him to as a person. The art doesnāt bother me, I just want to play the damn game!
Also I like 2Iās music and backgrounds more. Theyāre a bit more animated. However the whole feel of 3s is more serious and darker than 2I or NG
