if anyone here has a copy of the hardcover they want to sell or know how to get a hold of one please let me know. i missed this pre order while traveling to asia the whole summer
Canāt wait to cop this book. Is the soft cover suppose to be out already?
Check Udonekoās post on this page, a few posts above yours.
Didnāt even notice that, thanks a lot. :woot:
I got this at PAX. Really cool book.
Three slight griefs:
- Every second to third picture was Chun-Li. I have no problem with Chun-Li. But there are other Street Fighter characters.
- A great many of the female characters in the works were rather oversexualized. Iām as horny as the next dude but I donāt need to see a crotch/ass shot of Chun-Li or the other chicks in SF every third page.
- If it wasnāt Chun-Li or a different female character, it was usually Akuma. Some really cool art of Akuma, too, but again there are other characters.
That big Blanka section was a nice break from all the artists who really love Chun-Li (though unexpected lol @ Blanka getting his own section). It was also cool to see SF art from the likes of the Ben 10 artists and Penny Arcade.
The best pic was biker Akuma. :tup: If there was ever an Ultimate Street Fighter universe in the same vein as Ultimate Marvel, Akuma should be a biker.
Aussie purchaser here, and eagerly awaiting delivery of my hard cover SF Tribute. Will post when it arrives for the benefit of other International purchasers.
Good post specs. So how much of the book is Chun Li, Akuma and Blanka?
Good book
Placed order for softcopy last week.
Hopefully it will be off of Pre-Order to release :tup:
My hardcover SF Tribute just arrived (Australia)! Itās absolutely stunning!
I didnāt realise it would have a pearlescent dust cover. :tup:
Sorry for the monstrously late response. Iām not at home right now, but off the top of my head, Iād say 35-40% of the book, at the least, is Chun-Li, and the rest is maybe, I dunno, 20-25% Akuma? These are wholly unscientific numbers mind you. Iāll take a look again when I get home.
EDIT - Because I donāt feel like going through the whole art book and tallying up every characterās appearance, letās just say those percentages are about right. The Blanka section is like 15+ images if I recall.
Did it get delayed again?
I got an email from Amazon that it was delayed until late Oct/Early Nov
The Tribute book soft covers are in stores now! At least in comic stores. Might take another week or two to go thru the distribution network for the book chains and Amazon, coz they have their internal shipping routing to follow. But all comic stores got them already in their shipment this week!
My copy came in today, very nice work to everyone.:woot:
Anybody know who (or what) is depicted on page 93? Itās the only one I canāt tell for sure.
I got the notification yesterday from Amazon that it shipped, so Iām hoping to receive it sometime next week :tup:
Thatās a very creepy rendition of Twelve.
Ah. Thank you sir. It certainly is!
How much of the art is Japanese?
Because I really dislike modern American comic style art.
is Chun-Li really in almost half this book??:looney: didnāt someone say all the other characters make appearances as well?
Though there are atrists from all over the world in a variety of styles, Japan is definitely the biggest influence to the art styles I think.
Chun-Li is the most popular character for sure, but nowhere near half the book.
Pretty much everyone make an appearance, te onyl playable character that no one ended up doing was Eagle, poor guy. We even have appearances by Maki, Ingrid, and even 2 Poison pieces heh.
