Kinu Nishimura and Daigo Ikeno styles are more loose and gestural. Shinkiro is very "graphic artist"-y, where everything is rendered a little too perfectly and looks more like a statue than a person
@@Joshua-hg8ru I honestly prefer the more "sketchy"/gritty drawings since they make the characters look like they fight people on a regular basis while SNK is like super-models with make-up. Also, I think Capcom's drawings are more expressive like the original comment said. In addition, when you look at the Capcom drawings you can understand the personality of the characters by their body language (such as pose and facial expression), while when I look at SNK I mostly see the same heroic sunshine-and-rainbows over and over again
@@tommyshommy Benimaru, Geese, Vega, King and others all showcase personality and expressiveness. You can instantly get a feel for the characters, like King's challenging gesture, and Benimaru's nonchalant hand in pocket.
DabreadMan are some of them actually capcom? They look like knock off fan art...like the morrigan and chun li ones, yikes. There's way better capcom art than that....
The fact that these characters can fit such different art styles say a lot about how strong the basic concepts were. Excellent character creation and illustration styles.
I love seeing different art styles. But can I just say this, comparing this to modern street fighter, I kinda miss the older, less hulked out variants of the characters. Not everyone needs to be like Zangief.
@duraznoches honestly I'm kinda the opposite. I always found Ryu really weird looking when his shoulders were smaller. Imo almost all the characters in SFVI looked pretty darn ugly while SFV made em look better. Better faces and such but yeah the hands and stuff are too big. I think Capcom was trying to make it so that the things they most used in combat is more noticeable like Ryu's hands, Chun Li's thighs etc
CVS games sucked. They did the SNK characters no justice. There were tons of flaws in game play from over complicated engine with Levels and Grooves, which were only included because Capcom saw that their characters were out classed compared to SNK's. They didn't need all that crap. If Capcom wanted to make it good they would have no Levels and only 4 Grooves (SFA, SF3, KOF94-96, KOF96-2K). Capcom side would be about countering attacks while SNK would be about evading attacks. Also the SNK roster sucked. A lot of the more interesting characters were left out. There was no; Andy Bogard (who would make sense to use since he doesn't fight like Terry), Clark (who wouldn't be the stereotypical slow grappler), Leona (a fast paced charge style character), or Kasumi Todo (a counter character) to name a few. Instead we got lame asses like; Raiden and Kasumi's jobber father.
Snk art style is great overall, but is interesting to notice that Capcom did an awesome job with snk's characters while making weird experiments with their own fighters
the problem here is about the selections of the artworks, vc decide select the arts of snk by hand of capcom of the capcom vs snk 2 same with the snk art selected of the same game, but the capcom characters by capcom are other artwors of another games or books :/ so...they feel different
CvS1’s Capcom art was done by two different people. And the Capcom artist who did the SNK ones went on do both the Capcom and SNK side for their illustrations, while Shinkiro did his own Capcom and SNK art for CvS2. Which by that time was a BIG improvement from what he did in CvS1. He was still and probably never will be Bengus or Akiman when it comes to expressive gestures in the poses, but compared to his SNK work there was tremendous growth there.
Ralph Pollard When you say never will, its really weird. Like its some goal he must pass to become a legitimate illustrator. The way he does gestures is what makes him Shinkiro. Just saying, that bit you said there was weird.
Joshua&! Dude, he’d be critiqued in academia like nobody’s business for most of what he did. His rendering was fantastic but until he left SNK, that was most of all he had. His CvS1 stuff with the Capcom cast was the worst I’ve ever seen them drawn. Street Fighters don’t model for a shoot, they Battle and fight and none of that was conveyed with the CvS1 art. Now the CvS2 stuff and on was much better and had more life to it. No artist worth their salt is going to stay in one place with their work all their career. There’s always room to improve and expand, and those opportunities should always be taken.
Ralph Pollard I get you, and I totally agree. Though I do wish sometimes for illustrators not to stray far from their roots, they've gotta expand and work somewhere new. Totally clears up what you said earlier. Before it sounded like you wanted him to mimic Bengus's/Akiman's style.
Laser Sauce I always liked SNK's art style much better both in their sprites and their concept art. But in some of these you can see the artists from Capcom went for more dinamic poses or extra details in the clothes and musculature of the characters. SNK artists are more consistent too, you can see how some characters from the Capcom side of the video have more realistic features while others still have more cartoony features, while on the SNK side the artists adapted those characters with cartoony features to better fit with the more realistic looking characters.
Laser Sauce Let me slap this on your face, KoF almost went bankrupt while Capcom and SF5 are still going strong. You're going to tell me that the company that almost went bankrupt and is currently releasing games with PS2 graphics is doing better? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Looks like 2 different artists were used on the Capcom side, one drawing the Capcom characters and the other one drawing the SNK characters. Shinkiro all the way though, he's the Japanese Alex Ross.
Kinu Nishimura did SNK for the Capcom side, Daigo Ikeno did the Capcom characters. They did a lot better work on games like CvS2 and 3rd Strike, this looks rushed
I LOOOOVE the song you set this video to. As for the comparison, Capcom's art looks like raw concepts, where SNK's art looks like Actors in costume. It's not a bad thing on SNK's end either. They humanized some freaky looking designs, like Dhalsim or Balrog (the boxer). Some characters don't look as menacing as the Capcom design, Geese Howard for example, but they still look good. Then thete are the times here SNK's design is better than Capcom's, like Sakura or E. Honda. Still, it's good stuff. Thanks!

Yea I really didn’t some of the CVS1 portraits like Dhalism’s and Zangief’s. I prefer Capcoms CVS2 portraits though, but in this game SNK takes the cake.
Shinkiro didn’t get really good until Capcom actually forced him to do more than his “model” poses for characters. His CvS2 stuff when he became part of Capcom and beyond was much better.
Ralph Pollard yeah. they were pretty stiff, yet they still conveyed character. Kof 99 and 2000 have some of the best illustrations he did for SNK. Now in his most recent illustrations, he's doing really good.
THIS. I'll probably catch some flak for this, but I hate old Shinkiro's works. Most of the characters' pose look really bland and boring, and that Morrigan is the biggest offender, IMO. Seriously, how could you make MORRIGAN look boring?? Fortunately, his more recent stuffs look much better, although admittedly more anime-ish.
Cheers from 3 years later for being the only sane person here. Also, I'll say it, all Shinkiro's faces look like the Gioconda mixed with George Clooney, both male and female.
I always found it kind of weird that Capcom used two different styles of artwork in characters from its own and characters from SNK. Imo SNK characters painted by Capcom look awesome, while their own characters look excesively cartoonish.
Yeah and for that reason in my opinion SNK characters look better in the Capcom style and the Capcom characters look better in the SNK style, ironically enough.
@@KombatGod It's weird because, I like Ikeno's Cammy and Morrigan on this art. So, he did a really good job on SFIII 3rd Strike, I don't know why his work on cvs looks so weak.
Me encanta mas los de SNK, porque siento que las sombras y los colores quedan mas vivos y eso hace que el personaje se vea mas realista. El único que si quedó muy bien con los 2 fue Terry. Los de CAPCOM parecen como acabado acuarela muy bonito, pero los de SNK le patearon el trasero con el arte
Capcom have more movement although it tends to hulk up the characters which not always goes well. Snk is more sober, more stationary but also more detailed and with slim models. I like both but shinkiro is the man. His art is too fucking classy. I can't simply look at it, whenever I lay my eyes in his art I notice new details: clothes, shadings, Back ground..... god damn
SNK's art design is strikingly beautiful. I wanna frame them and put them on my wall. Capcom has always had more original and interesting characters however
I gotta give it to capcom on this, snk is good too. But capcom, every pose seems to match the character's personality. Snk just is realistic, but nothing else you can get from it. Like the pic of geese, capcom one makes you feel like he is up to something sinister. But the snk one, seems shy but friendly. Its arguable really, but I like the capcom ones.
Conrado Javier They also had Hiroaki for 2002 and XI. Nona for SvC: Chaos, 2001, and XIII. And Eisuke Ogura for XII and majority of promotional for XIV.
Probably not something everyone thinks, but man, Capcom does really know how to convey character and personality in their art. SNKs drawings may be prettier but they lack personality and dynamism. Also, they all kind of look the same.
Al principio me daba cosa el estilo de shinkiro pero mientras más lo veo mas le encuentro la gracia a que se vean más realistas, tiene pedazo de ilustraciones también
I feel like for this game, Capcom really botched their own characters. Their illustrations of SNK characters are superb though. And SNKs realistic style almost makes the Capcom characters blend right into the King of Fighters. I don't like that they made Cammy flat as a board though. Put some respect on those cakes.
i think there are 3 artists.... the capcom side capcom drawings have one style and snk side capcom drawings have another totally different, and then is the snk side drawings is for both companies the same style. i think they are 3 artists
Gana SNK sin lugar a dudas, sus ilustraciones son más realistas y dan más vida a los personajes mientras que Capcom tuvo el problema de que sus ilustraciones o son muy simples (casi todos los personajes del stf) o son muy estilizadas (casi todos los personajes del kof)... Es como si tuviera dos personas trabajando ahí.
If I were to insert my subjective opinion, I'd say that that SNK makes better in-game sprites(with a few exceptions, where they add jerky movements just to add them) and Capcom has a better artwork, cuz they add lots of characters' persona into it, which makes it so much more satisfying to the eye.
I like Capcom expressive conceptual design of characters...SNK art is beautiful, it just comes off stagnant or stiff because of it being rendered so tightly. Although some of SNk designs I do like...I just prefer Capcom
Honestly a straight up draw for me. I went back and forth on almost every other picture. (Capcom versions of Mai and Yamazaki have always been hideous to me tho) Huge fan of both companies and have been since the early 90’s. Man this just makes me want a CvS3 even moreso.
People seem to like the more realistic look of SNK but the characters are stiff and much less expressive than the capcom art and don't allow for the type of suspension of disbelief necessary to characters who can throw fireballs and tornadoes from their hands. I think it's ironic that the SNK gameplay is also more stiff than Capcom fighting game gameplay which is much more fluid and dynamic.
jonnie scott Capcom’s artists were 99% of the time WAAAAY better at drawing dynamic gestures and character expression. SHinkiro’s art was cool the first couple times I saw it but the lack of development and change made him stale up until CvS2. I will give Shinkiro his due though, because he has gotten much better over the years mainly due to the Capcom influence.
I cant stand that SNK artist, always with the eye shadow and smirky grin for every single character including the capcom ones, he even made gouki smile...
Kwok Man considering that time period, I wouldn’t be surprised if SNK made him do all his illustrations that way to separate their stuff from the more lively and gestural Capcom artists. That’s why when he got hired on by Capcom his stuff changed and improved almost immediately after CvS1. His CvS2 stuff was much better and it looked like he was able to loosen up and spread his wings out some more.
SNK version looks like they have better hygiene and wear makeup. Whereas Capcoms has a more battle hardened and just recently fought feel to their characters.
Capcom = Detailed and expressive. SNK = Shiny and picturesque. Capcom's art can beat SNK's for some characters, but in Kyo's and Cammy's case, they looked good. :) Older even.
SNK style is freakishly life like. They tend to capture real life faces, expressions, and a very clean look. Most of the SNK art captures a candid look. SNK is my vote! Capcom is nice aswell if youre looking for that power fantasy look. More action.
I like both pretty equally. It’s almost not even fair to compare because generally speaking for these, they’re going for two VERY different styles. And I love both
Wolfie Wolf First part of my original comment I'm trying to get you to elaborate on what you think is "painterly" art is and why Shinkiro's illustrations are painterly. Second part of my original comment I'm disagree with the way you used the word illustration original comment. "SNK's art is painterly. Capcom's art are illustrations." This implies that Capcom's art are illustrations, but SNK's isn't. Given the definition of illustration after google searching it, SNK's art are illustrations too.
Capcom art is more like painted sketches, I really hated that back in CvS2, all Capcom art rusty and stained trying to compensate with dynamism but all looked ugly, since then, I think Capcom was becoming lazy to work.
It seemed like there were two different artists' illustrations being shown on the Capcom side, until I did some googling and found that they're all done by the same person: Kinu Nishimura. It's odd to see such a stark contrast between the two styles there done by one person, since at first glance some of the illustrations remind me of amateur fan art (though up close you can see more of the detail and they just look overall /better/) and the other ones have a really cool, expressive style that I generally prefer over SNK's hyper-realistic one. That being said, I love Shinkiro's artwork as well and love how his hyper-realistic style brings characters to life in a surreal-feeling way. I just prefer how the Nishimura isn't afraid to be more dynamic, expressive and "larger than life" when it comes to stylizing the characters. It makes Shinkiro's art look rather bland and stiff in comparison, even though that awesome level of skill in rendering is always present.
Foram dois desenhistas pro lado da CAPCOM, não? Um pra desenhar os personagens da empresa e o outro, pra foder as da concorrente! Ao passo que o Shinkiro não desrespeitou nenhum personagem.
both are good, just an apples to oranges comparison. but I do prefer shinkiro's males than his female designs. on a related note, who was the artist for SF3?
nimaiiikun The three major artists that worked on SF3 were Kinu Nishimura, Akiman, and Daigo Ikeno. Daigo Ikeno did the illustrations you see in the character select screens of SF3: Third Strike and SF4, and the art you see at the end of arcade playthrough. You can see his artwork in this video for the Capcom characters on the left. Kinu Nishimura did the illustrations you see on the Win/Lose screens of SF3: New Generation/2nd Impact. She also did the ending art you see after beating arcade mode. She even did posters for 2nd Impact. You can see her artwork in this video of SNK characters on the left. In CvS2 she did illustrations representing Capcom, drawing both SNK and Capcom characters for the character select screen. Akiman/Akira Yasuda did the art you see on character select screen of SF3: New Generation/2nd Impact. He also did many posters for New Generation. He's the designer of original SF2 characters and original SF3 characters. He directed the design and animation of sprites for SF2 and SF3. Fun Fact! Like really cool. Akiman made a reference sheet back in the SF2 days that would direct how artists in Capcom should animate Street Fighter characters, and how they should proportion them. That reference sheet was used up to SF4, and probably even SFV! He's had a big influence in Capcom!
nimaiiikun Those artists are really inspiring for me. I'd say Bengus, Shinkiro, and Akiman's SF3 posters had big influences on my art. So big, I actually find it counterproductive nowadays 😁. Great artists tho.
The SNK artstyle didn't fit all the capcom characters, they looked a bit uncanny in the drawings. The SNK characters were made for the artstyle IMO, since they compliment the artstyle better
Capcom have had some great artists, in my opinion, way better than SNK's (I own lots of Capcom artbooks). But the Capcom artist who did the artwork shown in this video (for the Capcom vs SNK games) has to be one of the worst.
They're both VERY different, it's about a 50-50 for me I like Snk's shading, coloring, details and DAT ANATOMY, but I don't like how pale characters look TAN, and how everyone's faces look kinda similar Yet, I like Capcom's dynamic poses, how well they can make a character look SCARY and how different everyone look from each other, but I don't like the anatomy (it's REALLY off sometimes), or the faces they SOMETIMES have :/
As an art student that studies anatomy? It HURTS MY EYES to see a a human with incorrect anatomy (not talking about an imaginary creature, or an EXTREMELY cartoonish and minimalistic art style), in a more realistic-semirealistic style such as this There's being creative anatomy and making your own rule to it for your own art style And there's making A MISTAKE in a SOMEWHAT realistic art style Sorry if my opinion doesn't match your opinion, I'm not trying to fight you
SNK👍 Wins they have a perfect Art Graphical designed unbelievable it's look fantastic all the Characters perfectly is very easy to see the different for all CAPCOM is my favorite , if you want good fighting 1-1 or beaten up go on Capcom for sure they have more experience to make fighting game very well
Going With SNK here. It was mind-blowing to see Shinkiro doing Capcom characters at the time. The art on Capcom vs. SNK 2 is much harder to choose between for me.

Stingy McDuck Yeah Capcom had something weird going on. Not bad, just weird because you see in CvS2 the artwork is less sketchy.

OMG, Shinkiro is the king of SNK art, his style is so unique and realistic
SNK's art design is strikingly beautiful. I wanna frame them and put them on my wall. Capcom has always had more original and interesting characters however
0:53 "hm not bad"
I gotta give it to capcom on this, snk is good too. But capcom, every pose seems to match the character's personality. Snk just is realistic, but nothing else you can get from it. Like the pic of geese, capcom one makes you feel like he is up to something sinister. But the snk one, seems shy but friendly. Its arguable really, but I like the capcom ones.
SNK is more realistic. Capcom is more stylised and cartoonish.
Capcom-style artwork: Kinu Nishimura (SNK characters), Daigo Ikeno (Capcom characters)
SNK-style artwork- Shinkiro
The Irony Shinkiro now works for Capcom, & the Newly Revived SNK Playmore had Falcoon as a Replacement.
Conrado Javier They also had Hiroaki for 2002 and XI. Nona for SvC: Chaos, 2001, and XIII. And Eisuke Ogura for XII and majority of promotional for XIV.
Falcoon is gone for a long time now, thank God
Probably not something everyone thinks, but man, Capcom does really know how to convey character and personality in their art. SNKs drawings may be prettier but they lack personality and dynamism. Also, they all kind of look the same.
Al principio me daba cosa el estilo de shinkiro pero mientras más lo veo mas le encuentro la gracia a que se vean más realistas, tiene pedazo de ilustraciones también
I feel like for this game, Capcom really botched their own characters. Their illustrations of SNK characters are superb though. And SNKs realistic style almost makes the Capcom characters blend right into the King of Fighters.
I don't like that they made Cammy flat as a board though. Put some respect on those cakes.
Straight criminal
Has Cammy ever been thicker than that though?
i think there are 3 artists.... the capcom side capcom drawings have one style and snk side capcom drawings have another totally different, and then is the snk side drawings is for both companies the same style. i think they are 3 artists
Yeah I mean just compare Ken (2:01) and Ryo (3:19)
@@KombatGod yeah!! o ryu and kim
Capcom has 2 artists, cause some characters on the Capcom side has a different art style than others
Yeah, I noticed some are a little off lol
Gana SNK sin lugar a dudas, sus ilustraciones son más realistas y dan más vida a los personajes mientras que Capcom tuvo el problema de que sus ilustraciones o son muy simples (casi todos los personajes del stf) o son muy estilizadas (casi todos los personajes del kof)... Es como si tuviera dos personas trabajando ahí.
If I were to insert my subjective opinion, I'd say that that SNK makes better in-game sprites(with a few exceptions, where they add jerky movements just to add them) and Capcom has a better artwork, cuz they add lots of characters' persona into it, which makes it so much more satisfying to the eye.
Snk for sure
I like Capcom expressive conceptual design of characters...SNK art is beautiful, it just comes off stagnant or stiff because of it being rendered so tightly. Although some of SNk designs I do like...I just prefer Capcom
Right, snk's doesnt feel as fluid, or should i say witj character? Most face shapes and eyes are drawn the same way
@@nat3299 _ hmmm..agree
I love how SNK Guile is straight up Bruce Willis.
3:00 Yuri: Yea, It's me! 😋👍

0:46 seconds: SNK wins Zangief.
2:21 one looks like the main villain and one looks like the mentor of the hero in some anime.
Snk's Chun-Li is really pretty hot damn. And Snk's Zangief looks like a real person, scary.
Left anime, right cosplayer
Capcom characters are something I would read and draw from a manga
SNK characters are something I would have as figmas in my collection
SNK: Clean/Simple and Realistic.
Capcom: Details here and there plus Shades and more SHADES!!!
Good memories of that PS One classic ahhh... I Remember scrolling these in the menu every day
Shinkiro é inigualável! Snk sempre!!!!
Digão Lima sempre
Shinkiro só prestou até KOF 97.
As an artist myself..I can appreciate both company's artwork..but I like capcom's rough layouts over snks smooth version.
The SNK artwork looks like actual photos.
The Capcom artwork is still good, though.
Honestly a straight up draw for me. I went back and forth on almost every other picture. (Capcom versions of Mai and Yamazaki have always been hideous to me tho) Huge fan of both companies and have been since the early 90’s. Man this just makes me want a CvS3 even moreso.
Capcom: Anime/Manga, SNK: Realistic
I like the Capcom art more, they're more unique. Snk arts have almost all the same eye and eyebrow, so they look almost the same face
Tbh the same face syndrom isnt even that bad imo. Some have it but most are rather well done imo
They all looks like Goerge Clooney XD
@@phantomgamer4463 yesssssss
El Artwork de Shinkiro está de poca madre!!!!
People seem to like the more realistic look of SNK but the characters are stiff and much less expressive than the capcom art and don't allow for the type of suspension of disbelief necessary to characters who can throw fireballs and tornadoes from their hands. I think it's ironic that the SNK gameplay is also more stiff than Capcom fighting game gameplay which is much more fluid and dynamic.
I would give slight edge to capcom. Love both!
jonnie scott Capcom’s artists were 99% of the time WAAAAY better at drawing dynamic gestures and character expression. SHinkiro’s art was cool the first couple times I saw it but the lack of development and change made him stale up until CvS2. I will give Shinkiro his due though, because he has gotten much better over the years mainly due to the Capcom influence.
I cant stand that SNK artist, always with the eye shadow and smirky grin for every single character including the capcom ones, he even made gouki smile...
Kwok Man considering that time period, I wouldn’t be surprised if SNK made him do all his illustrations that way to separate their stuff from the more lively and gestural Capcom artists. That’s why when he got hired on by Capcom his stuff changed and improved almost immediately after CvS1. His CvS2 stuff was much better and it looked like he was able to loosen up and spread his wings out some more.
SNK version looks like they have better hygiene and wear makeup. Whereas Capcoms has a more battle hardened and just recently fought feel to their characters.
0:44
Oh man capcom's zangief has a *russian sausage*
The way Capcom did their own characters in these illustrations is unforgivable. They showed love to the SNK characters though for sure.
Shinkiro mandava muito bem nas arts tanto que depois a capcom roubou ele da Snk
Miojo será que foi ele desenhou os personagens do tatsunoko vs capcom.?
Roberto Nunes até do Marvel vs capcom 3 se eu não me engano é ele que faz
Sim, foi o Shinkiro quem fez a artwork de Tatsunoko vs Capcom.
0:44 I loughed so hard in here, this shit could unleash many memes in the future
3:12 creo que es el diseño que mas me gustó del de SNK
Capcom = Detailed and expressive.
SNK = Shiny and picturesque.
Capcom's art can beat SNK's for some characters, but in Kyo's and Cammy's case, they looked good. :) Older even.
0:55 is that stronheim
SNK style is freakishly life like. They tend to capture real life faces, expressions, and a very clean look. Most of the SNK art captures a candid look. SNK is my vote! Capcom is nice aswell if youre looking for that power fantasy look. More action.
SNK artworks looks so much better, more realistic and have so pretty faces.
Capcom is very "cartoony" and sometimes ugly.
SNK😍😍
I like both pretty equally. It’s almost not even fair to compare because generally speaking for these, they’re going for two VERY different styles. And I love both
SNK sem comparação 😁🖤🖤🖤❤️❤️❤️🖤
Love the music being used in this video
Snk more nice
capcom has so much life to their art. super expressive
snk's art is painterly. capcom's art are illustrations.
Painterly??? It's still an illustration.
what are you trying to say?
Wolfie Wolf First part of my original comment I'm trying to get you to elaborate on what you think is "painterly" art is and why Shinkiro's illustrations are painterly. Second part of my original comment I'm disagree with the way you used the word illustration original comment. "SNK's art is painterly. Capcom's art are illustrations." This implies that Capcom's art are illustrations, but SNK's isn't. Given the definition of illustration after google searching it, SNK's art are illustrations too.
I don't mean to be rude by the way.
Capcom art is more like painted sketches, I really hated that back in CvS2, all Capcom art rusty and stained trying to compensate with dynamism but all looked ugly, since then, I think Capcom was becoming lazy to work.
SNK ART STYLE for The win ... it looks real and anime at the same time.. I even try to draw like this back in high school...
i'm a kof player also but capcom has much more expression and figure. SNK is realist but kind of boring and no personality
It seemed like there were two different artists' illustrations being shown on the Capcom side, until I did some googling and found that they're all done by the same person: Kinu Nishimura.
It's odd to see such a stark contrast between the two styles there done by one person, since at first glance some of the illustrations remind me of amateur fan art (though up close you can see more of the detail and they just look overall /better/) and the other ones have a really cool, expressive style that I generally prefer over SNK's hyper-realistic one.
That being said, I love Shinkiro's artwork as well and love how his hyper-realistic style brings characters to life in a surreal-feeling way. I just prefer how the Nishimura isn't afraid to be more dynamic, expressive and "larger than life" when it comes to stylizing the characters. It makes Shinkiro's art look rather bland and stiff in comparison, even though that awesome level of skill in rendering is always present.
Damn I thought the same thing
Foram dois desenhistas pro lado da CAPCOM, não? Um pra desenhar os personagens da empresa e o outro, pra foder as da concorrente! Ao passo que o Shinkiro não desrespeitou nenhum personagem.
Sometimes the SNK realism becomes uncomfortable.
both are good, just an apples to oranges comparison. but I do prefer shinkiro's males than his female designs. on a related note, who was the artist for SF3?
nimaiiikun The three major artists that worked on SF3 were Kinu Nishimura, Akiman, and Daigo Ikeno. Daigo Ikeno did the illustrations you see in the character select screens of SF3: Third Strike and SF4, and the art you see at the end of arcade playthrough. You can see his artwork in this video for the Capcom characters on the left. Kinu Nishimura did the illustrations you see on the Win/Lose screens of SF3: New Generation/2nd Impact. She also did the ending art you see after beating arcade mode. She even did posters for 2nd Impact. You can see her artwork in this video of SNK characters on the left. In CvS2 she did illustrations representing Capcom, drawing both SNK and Capcom characters for the character select screen. Akiman/Akira Yasuda did the art you see on character select screen of SF3: New Generation/2nd Impact. He also did many posters for New Generation. He's the designer of original SF2 characters and original SF3 characters. He directed the design and animation of sprites for SF2 and SF3. Fun Fact! Like really cool. Akiman made a reference sheet back in the SF2 days that would direct how artists in Capcom should animate Street Fighter characters, and how they should proportion them. That reference sheet was used up to SF4, and probably even SFV! He's had a big influence in Capcom!
Thanks! Kinu is my favorite among the Capcom artists. but Daigo, Akiman, and Shinkiro are close behind!
nimaiiikun Those artists are really inspiring for me. I'd say Bengus, Shinkiro, and Akiman's SF3 posters had big influences on my art. So big, I actually find it counterproductive nowadays 😁. Great artists tho.
Capcom's version of Terry looked pretty damn cool. Like wise SNK's version of Ryu.
Needs more of Kinu Nishimura's artwork, and less of Daigo Ikenos.
Again Capcom's IORI 🤔🤔🤔 but SNK'S IORI🥳🥳👌👌👌👌👍👍👍👍
The SNK artstyle didn't fit all the capcom characters, they looked a bit uncanny in the drawings. The SNK characters were made for the artstyle IMO, since they compliment the artstyle better
Viola the Raccoon maybe you just find it odd to see them in SNK's style, like I do.
Shinkiro’s work has always been my favorite.
SNK Ryu looks like Charlie sheen 1:27
Capcom:anime character
Snk:cosplayers
SNK
SNK forever. The art work the artist used for UMVC3 is my fav.
Why everyone looks the same in snk artwork
I love SNK!!
Capcom have had some great artists, in my opinion, way better than SNK's (I own lots of Capcom artbooks). But the Capcom artist who did the artwork shown in this video (for the Capcom vs SNK games) has to be one of the worst.
Funny, because Daigo Ikeno has done better artwork, if his work for 3rd Strike is anything to go by.
They're both VERY different, it's about a 50-50 for me
I like Snk's shading, coloring, details and DAT ANATOMY, but I don't like how pale characters look TAN, and how everyone's faces look kinda similar
Yet, I like Capcom's dynamic poses, how well they can make a character look SCARY and how different everyone look from each other, but I don't like the anatomy (it's REALLY off sometimes), or the faces they SOMETIMES have :/
As an art student that studies anatomy?
It HURTS MY EYES to see a a human with incorrect anatomy (not talking about an imaginary creature, or an EXTREMELY cartoonish and minimalistic art style), in a more realistic-semirealistic style such as this
There's being creative anatomy and making your own rule to it for your own art style
And there's making A MISTAKE in a SOMEWHAT realistic art style
Sorry if my opinion doesn't match your opinion, I'm not trying to fight you
And I didn't see you said "illustration" sorry DX
Long story short, both styles have different strengths and weaknesses :P
I've always liked the SNK style more in this game, it looked real. Wish they've did a third game.
i honestly love both, people may say negative things between art styles but i personally love both art styles
SNK👍 Wins they have a perfect Art Graphical designed unbelievable it's look fantastic all the Characters perfectly is very easy to see the different for all
CAPCOM is my favorite , if you want good fighting 1-1 or beaten up go on Capcom for sure they have more experience to make fighting game very well
Alain Azor sorry but blanka looks ill a lot are draws but there are also a few clear winners as well
oh blanka i see
Going With SNK here. It was mind-blowing to see Shinkiro doing Capcom characters at the time. The art on Capcom vs. SNK 2 is much harder to choose between for me.
3:53 mai got big features like the forehead lmao
Can't decide which one looks better. Both of them are looking great in their own way.
3:44 Nice trap Cammy
XD I JUST NOW REALIZED THAT BULGE
