I honestly want that Bison in things. he looks so much better than any of his other looks and this, more than any other, carries 'head of a worldwide criminal orginization' to me - which is what bison is. he's sharp, he's threatening, he has presence and authority and what he is is front and centre

After months of trying to get dirt on his evil organization rival, Rugal, Bison only managed to find Rugal's tailor. Turns out, that's all he wanted to know.
Guile just looks like he came back from a Jojo convention and didn't feel like changing out of them before heading home. Dude could seriously pass off as Dio with that pose lol.
I swear....Ryu's design reminds me of that Ryu from Streets™ meme. Like I can literally hear him say the lines while looking at this design. Hey there everybody,this is Ryu,from streets.Did you know? My favorite things are: Jumping into light fierce, Stale bread, Water without any ice, The newest season of the Simpsons. Aaand dirt. See you in Street Fighter Dual everyone.
I find the Blanka design to be fine. The yellow tank top with blue outlines compliments his green skin while also being a nice nod to colors on the Brazilian flag. Considering how crazy some of Blanka's designs gets in alternate costumes, this one works for me. Interesting that Honda is kind of the same boat. White, red. Again, like the colors of the flag. His name on his, I believe it's called a yukata, is a nice touch.
One big problem I have with E. Honda is the fact that he's casually wearing a mawashi. Not only that, he's wearing his Tsuna. That is LITERALLY sacred. I get that Honda can't have a personality beyond sumo, but this doesn't even conform to the rules of Sumo. They should have gone all in on the yakuta, that's what Sumo wrestlers actually wear in public in casual formats.
With Ryu, it's actually easy for me to believe Ken found a way to either convince Ryu into wearing it or that he won a bet through a sparring match were he forced him into it.
Hey, I'm the dude that informed everyone that this game existed on the Community post, but I just wanna say that everyone drip look cool and I love all of them. Also Sakura was in the thumbnail but idk where she went in the vid
Am I the only one who still wants it to come out? It's been over ten years and still nothing. I wouldn't mind a new street fighter or tekken, but it would be cool to see street fighter characters in the tekken engine.

I almost dig Ryu outfit. This is what most young people wear when sparring at mma. Shorts and a resistant simple shirt. I would change his shoes for flip flops and take his sleeves, the watch and that red shirt off.
The red shirt is supposed to hearken back to his red belt. The sleeve, watch and shoe thing is where it gets too much. Honestly he could be barefoot in that w/o the sleeve and watch and it'd fit his character.
That offhand comment about "maybe this is what Mrs. Guile is into" slingshotted me from hating Guile's look to loving it. I can't see Guile picking out that outfit for his own aesthetic but I can TOTALLY see him rocking a look that his wife thinks is hot.
Guile looks like four JoJo characters at once, meet "President Rudolf Von Polnaref Brando Also I would like to point out that Blanka is wearing a Brazil soccer team shirt which is really nice
Cammy's reminds me of her look in Final Fight Street Wise. Notably, she has an alt outfit in the game that's her usual Delta Red uniform, but with her leotard extended so it covers her bottom. Mostly used in promo art.
This Bison costume makes me think he is about to have a bussiness reunion with Geese Howard and it LOOKS INCREDIBLE!!! Please Capcom bring this looks to bison next time he is in a fighting game!!
Street Fighter 6: Drip Edition. I’m so glad Vega got his design I freaking love it, and Chun-Li with the no Vega sticker is funny. They’re my two favorites. And Bison....it’s the best

I'm watching this again in 2022 and forgot this game existed. To be honest the drip in this artwork is much stronger than whatever dragon Ball drip is spreading around
I like Blanka's design because it is very Brazil. I could totally see him chilling in Rio near the beaches wearing that. The shirt just needs a football team name on it and it's golden.
I'd argue Dhalsim's look could be interesting for a fighting game in that it hides his initial attack, and enemies have to wait until something comes out to react. However, to be fair, animators can have Dhalsim take certain positions to help set up what attacking is coming

I wanna see Zangief's new costume. Zangief's gonna get a new costume, right? He better get a new costume. With that out of the way, I love all of these.
So, looking at Akuma's clothes, it looks like he has a bunch of his attacks written on it. - 百鬼豪破殺 is Hyakki Gohasatsu (from Tekken 7) - 竜巻斬空脚 is Tatsumaki Zankuukyaku - 百鬼豪刃 is Hyakki Gojin - 阿修羅閃空 is Ashura Senkuu The biggest text, 唯我独尊 (Yuiga Dokuson), doesn't seem to be the name of any moves he has, but it's apparently the shortened form of the Buddhist phrase 天上天下唯我独尊 (Tenjou Tenge Yuiga Dokuson) which means "I alone am worthy of honor both above and below the heavens". Not sure what's on his arm. 剛, 拳, 轟, 鐵(?), and 隆 are all visible, but I can't figure out what those are supposed to be.
I just love the red-colored CPS1 fireball (a nod to a 1:512 bug that accidentally made hadokens use the Yoga Fire palette) on Ken's jacket. Same for the attention to detail on Guile's right arm tattoo being the reversed flag, like it would be on a right arm patch in RL. I do want to know what it is on Akuma's clothing that's been crossed out over his left shoulder though.
Honestly, I think Ryu got that drip cause his friends just forced him into it so they could all have that same kind of vibe and not be the drip crew and one homeless dude
Last thing, Cammy’s pants do work even in a fighting game cause I’ve seen that “kicker fighter with baggy pants” in a bunch of media and it works cause it gives that feel that yes, these legs can kill with a single kick cause it makes their silhouette much bigger
For what it's worth, I didn't skip Sakura; it's just that her full concept art doesn't exist anywhere yet. I only have the thumbnail to go off of, but nothing else. She does look really cute though!

Having a Hyper Urban aesthetic kinda emphasize the "street" in Street Fighter. This is the kinda thing SF 3 was missing.
I think the twins kind of represent that feeling of "street," by their stages and designs.
Fingers crossed the artstyle of SF6 is more akin to an actual 'Street' aesthetic. It'd be a real breath of fresh air.
Actually, I'd say say that III is the most urban SF saga out there. Even the style of the character portraits in NG and 2I is very graffiti-esque!
They could have done that! But the fandom manace was to harsh Back then. The only "hyper urban" character we got is Remy. And hey, he even is feminin. (How modern!)

Ryu and Ken look stupid. Especially Ken who's too old for that shit.
So, looking at Akuma's clothes, it looks like he has a bunch of his attacks written on it.
- 百鬼豪破殺 is Hyakki Gohasatsu (from Tekken 7)
- 竜巻斬空脚 is Tatsumaki Zankuukyaku
- 百鬼豪刃 is Hyakki Gojin
- 阿修羅閃空 is Ashura Senkuu
The biggest text, 唯我独尊 (Yuiga Dokuson), doesn't seem to be the name of any moves he has, but it's apparently the shortened form of the Buddhist phrase 天上天下唯我独尊 (Tenjou Tenge Yuiga Dokuson) which means "I alone am worthy of honor both above and below the heavens".
Not sure what's on his arm. 剛, 拳, 轟, 鐵(?), and 隆 are all visible, but I can't figure out what those are supposed to be.
Ryu can work on this style if they took inspiration on his counterpart on Street fighter Victory
Holy crap, Ken has the Hadoken input on his wristband, so clever
Guile looks like Benimaru Nikaido from SNK.
Street fighters that actually look like street fighters, nice
These designs remind me of the alternate skins in Advance Wars DS.
People are still remembering Dual Strike? I kinda liked Jake's alt costume
Love the yellow glasses on chun.
"Street Fighter: Old Man Yells at Urban Culture."
I just love the red-colored CPS1 fireball (a nod to a 1:512 bug that accidentally made hadokens use the Yoga Fire palette) on Ken's jacket. Same for the attention to detail on Guile's right arm tattoo being the reversed flag, like it would be on a right arm patch in RL. I do want to know what it is on Akuma's clothing that's been crossed out over his left shoulder though.
With that shirt, Blanka has finally fulfilled his destiny as a walking brazilian flag lol.
Akuma looks amazing and I've never realized how much I wanted Bison in a sick suit until now.
Honestly, I think Ryu got that drip cause his friends just forced him into it so they could all have that same kind of vibe and not be the drip crew and one homeless dude
Guile’s shit, though, probably could go around the rest of his torso and be skin-tight
Last thing, Cammy’s pants do work even in a fighting game cause I’ve seen that “kicker fighter with baggy pants” in a bunch of media and it works cause it gives that feel that yes, these legs can kill with a single kick cause it makes their silhouette much bigger
Lol, one homeless dude

Ahhhh yes
The Drip Fighters
I like how Guile has a knock off Starbucks
Feel like he's more of a "old thermos filled with instant Folgers" kind of guy, but hey it's still a fun stylistic choice
Starbooms
This art concept is better than most of the goofy SFV holiday bundles
Nitpick: Ryu lead's an ascetic life, not an aesthetic one. Also, Guile is looking more like a buffed up Benimaru Nikaido here.
It’s aesthetic now.
Urban fashion fits Street Fighter nicely simply because of how often Street Fighter leans to hip hop
