Can't mess with Alvin though, his skills are top notch. Still the best Street Fighter artist around. He should work for Capcom, never mind Riot lol.

Hey Alpha,

I know you're a fellow SF art aficionado, so I respect your opinion.

But I think you're making a few snap judgments with your above comment.

For one, SF4 and SF5 (other than both using 3D models) look nothing alike.

Maybe you haven't seen enough SF5 yet to make a proper assessment?

Honestly, SF5 looks like a 3D rendered version of SF3. Check out Chun Li and Ryu's animations. Many of them are even returning from 3s!

IMHO.....

SF4 looks like a 3D rendered version of the Alpha series. Seriously, go take a look at the massively exaggerated muscle of the Alpha series. Even Ken and Ryu are He-Man size. (I'm all good with that)

SF5 looks slimmer, sleeker and more fluid and refined. Just like the SF3 series.

And I'm sure that's no accident! Because SF5 seems to be set after 3s! So it is the actual successor to the 3 series. So it should appear to be a semi natural evolution.

Take a few more peeks at SF5 and watch the animations. If you've spent as much time as I have staring at SF games, you'll see what I mean.

Have a good one

Watched!

Nicely put and makes sense in every way possible

I gotta disagree jop,
First off, saying sf4 looks like a 3d version of the alpha series..? Do disrespect but WTF are you serious dude? That's a ridiculous statement.

I've watched the comparison videos and watched the trailer a few times myself and I gotta say I think streetfighter 4 and Street fighter 5 do look different when comparing the face models.
But that huge exaggerated anatomy is still there, I think They need to tone down the street fighter 5 models.

Everybody knows Street fighter has always been exaggerated when it comes to the muscles and anatomy but Street fighter 4 and 5 are way over the top..

Personally I think streetfighter 5 ryu looks nothing like 3rd strike ryu, maybe the hair but that's it.
But more worrying is the animation for ryu's moves, especially his sweep it looks so awkward and clunky. I can see they are trying to make it look like sf3 but sh!t they need to try a lot harder than that.

On the bright side when the first footage for street fighter 4 came out, it looked pretty crap.
By the time it was released it looking much different, so let's hope the same will happen with sf5.

It's cool brotha,

I value (and respect) your opinion as well. IMHO SFA and SF3 have roided out muscle just the same as 4-5. But less prominent in pixilated form

I agree that we should reserve judgement until we've seen a bit more.

Side note: The sweep animation may have looked "clunky" to you because for the first time ever there are different animations for the attacker depending on Hit vs Block.

I.E Hit = traditional follow-through vs Block = a stunned recoil effect animation.

Perhaps you witnessed a blocked sweep?

Edit: It may also be noteworthy to mention that all of the alpha characters in SF4 are based directly off of their SFAlpha designs (with some tweaks like rose's costume).

Overall I think SF4 did a great job of bringing together characters (and art styles) from every Street Fighter game.

And I expect even more polish from SF5.

Appropriate (i.e. more realistic) physics in character model interactions is what has me most excited for the PS4/Xbone generation. 90%+ of my gaming is spent on NHL and Street Fighter.

Hey Jop,

It is not so much the anatomy of SF4 characters that bothers me, so much as some of the character faces. Ryu, Ken, Akuma and Guile mainly. The bug eyes / short hair and weird mouth of Ryu really get to me.

I am all for classic Ryu:

http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb2...7/Ryu_face.gif

I personally love the exaggerated anime like proportions, as to me, that defines Street Fighter characters. Alpha has some of the best character designs IMHO, including one of my favourites - Beefy Bison. The art of Bengus and Alvin Lee (Especially during his UDON SF comic run) really plays on the exaggerated anatomy.

From what I've seen in the SF5 trailer - Ryu still looks off (To ME at least). l I am not so sure that it takes place after SF3 or before, as Ryu still has the SF4 style gloves. SF3 Ryu had the classic style gloves with no symbols.

Anyway, to each their own I am looking forward to further model tweaking and character reveals for SF5! Let's hope they bring back Bison, I've always wanted to see a Bison vs. Gill showdown

Pretty cool. Samurai Cammy depiction.

That's a nice picture indeed of Cammy
