Here's a coloured character design sheet of Helga done for Konami's New International Track & Field video game on Nintendo DS. The game is available now and includes online multiplayer as well as single cartridge multiplayer.
The character is shown from several angles and with a variety of expressions to guide the animators who model and animate the character in 3D.

Awesome style. Does this mean we'll see character sheets for the other characters, too?

Major cultural and ethnic cliche. Not your fault, the client must approve. Whatever makes it funny, right? Looking at the SF characters, for example, the creators went past the cliches and made them powerful in a way that people of their respective cultures would embrace and be proud. I can't image an Eastern European feeling proud of this character. Damn clients.

You can totally see the Street Fighter art style in these art pieces. Doesn't Capcom get pissed? I think it looks great.

Well that style has also become part of the UDON look, so as long as we're not drawing actual copyrighted Street Fighter characters for a Konami game, we're all good.

For sure. I think I came off wrong there. The look is awesome... just wondered if companies tried to own a style. I notice this look in the first Double Dragon arcade, and again in Data East's Dodgeball. Did anyone from Udon work on those arcade games. Thanks for your time.

Both those arcade games came out before we were professional artists. We grew up playing games like Double Dragon and Dodgeball.
Certain looks may become synonymous with particular companies over time, but it's almost impossible to own a particular style.
