A fanart poster-style for the VERY FUNNY collaboration "Banshee's Last Cry x Street Fighter 6" I just finished, and I'm happy of it

During the DLC you're basically playing a murder party with a large part of other major characters in the game and it was.SO. FUNNY.

And I love also the idea that everyone is hiding under a blue silhouette so I wanted to draw everyone showing both the actual character and the identity they assume.

Featuring from top left to right and then below :

Kimberly and Luke (as Bobby Trottier and Abby MacCarthy),

Dhalsim and Rachid (as John and Jonas),

Thrasher and Elissa (as Chase and Amber Buchanan)

Chun Li and Guile (as Colleen and William Forrest)

the Avatar (as Max, I drew my avatar but am considering doing the regular titular look of them),

JP (as Grace, and yes theyre doing love eyes at each other and yes that is a canon option),

Li Fen, Cammy, E. Honda (as Molly Starks, Tiffany Oakley and Debbie Mason)

and Blanka (as the cat Rudy)

What they're doing is related to things that happen in the DLC.

Concept art of SF6 World Tour characters from the “Street Fighter 6 World Guide” book. I got myself the kindle version because I heard from atgrbread that there’s one concept art pic of F.A.N.G. I wanted to see it so bad that I end up buying this…just for one little picture lol.

But look what I got here!

Characters include Bosch, Li-Fen, Alice, Carlos Miyamoto, Thrasher Damnd, Rudra, Kalima, Yua, Uou & Saouo, Punch, Rewancha, Retsu, Bao Bao Bro, R.O.B.B.I.E., Blanka-Chan, Mel Masters, Singing Wolf, Azam, Eternity,

And my favorite, F.A.N.G 💜💜

I post these here because hardly anyone goes to Tumblr lol.

Anyway, the book essentially contains information and images about the characters that are already present in the game. There’s a lot of behind the scenes content that was written. It’s all in Japanese, so I used Google translate to read it lol. The information was quite intriguing on how the characters were conceptualized, how the game was designed, and why some of the returning characters were chosen to be part of SF6.

Some interesting things:

- A.K.I. was going to be a charge character, but the nature of her moves proved to be too difficult, so they changed her to motion.

- One of the inspirations of creating JP was of villain Magnussen from the Sherlock series.

- Ed was a huge drive for creating Street Fighter 6. It is said that his character in SFV had a handsome aesthetic and is easy to use. He was popular amongst new players. And that was how World Tour was created—it was meant to draw in new audiences and players and to ease them into fighting games. Also SFV Ed was the predecessor for Modern controls, despite him becoming a totally different character playstyle-wise in SF6. And his SFV theme song was a big inspiration for the music in SF6 as the theme of this game is hip hop.
