The next daily warmup drawing brings back the good old days of 2-d fighters. When Super Nintendo ruled the console wars, Street Fighter won the hearts of fighting game fans.
I went a bit beyond the intended sketchy approach to these exercise drawings and dedicated the entire morning to finishing this image. I noticed that my recent illustrations lacked energy and appeared static, so I challenged myself to create a lot of movement and action when composing the piece.
I didn't know which characters to choose, so decided to use the ones that would provide me with a nice color palette based on their outfits. Adding a few 8-bit goodies here and there, I wanted to make the image resemble a screenshot from the actual video game.
Thanks for viewing guys,

Street Fighter is still one of my favorite games. Awesome action shot!
yea if you were worried about previous drawings looking static, you remedied that here, Tin. I can almost here Balrog's jaw come apart with that flying knee.
