Description
(...I was honoured)2D Forever (It wants you to visit)
This is a speed-paint of Ryu, I had a simple idea in my head that had to get out. It was originally going to be Akuma, but then I've always preferred Evil Ryu, so it went down that route. As it came towards the end I took out all Evil Ryu elements to the piece as it just didn't need them - Ryu's damn cool as he is.
I decided to make it black and white with the red headband because of the special colour-creation modes on Capcom vs SNK. I always made Evil Ryu all black apart from the reds showing out - his eyes and headband were the only visible part to him. So the headband element stayed in here.
Colour inspiration can be found on my site

Personally, I prefer my beat-up version of him: [link]
But thank you, I'm really glad you like it

haha Thank you for the heads up this is amazing work! I still prefer my all time SF hero unbeaten and unbloodied! haha. Yeah you've definately inspired me, I've got you and a couple artists bookmarked and look at your work for inspiration before I open my sketchbook. Thanks again.

I spent a good portion of my childhood playing Street Fighter in arcades. I think Ken was my favourite character. Could you do Ken?

That's just asking for a "Hadouken/How do you do Ken?" joke
But yeah, I loved playing SF in arcades as well... probably wasted too much of my life there, but I don't mind!

Yup, I know. As I sent it I thought shit. I wasted time in arcades playing driving games and hitting people and now I'm going to waste more of my time in front of an Xbox by the end of this year.

The last hour I've been browsing Da, but always returned to this piece. Just beacause it stuns me. The use of black, white and red is beautiful, and your hold of anatomy is amasing. I love how you painted his back. I know I shouldn't fav fanart, but this is to perfect to pass my nose un-noticed
