However, a big commission had left me with only about a day or so, nowhere near as much time as I would have liked. The plan was to design a few for each, then try to get people to vote for which one to put through. I wanted to design a Boxer costume as I'm almost always in Brian_F's stream and so on. I'm constantly tuning into Jammerz Streams, I knew he would have liked to see Poison in a cheongsam attire (a la SF4). Juri, I like the character overall, the others I wanted to design for because of streamers &/or gameplay. It was Juri - Poison - Boxer - Cody - Laura. Initially, I had a list I wanted to design for. What made you choose them over other characters? I really liked NY Mobster Alex (in finals), Mech Alex, Secretary Poison, and just. There was some amazing art submitted, what other costume designs did you see from the contest that you enjoyed? I didn't properly check back till the last 24 hours, but friends will tell you I never thought I was going to win I found myself repeating “I'm a nobody, no following, and can't do much to get votes so watching it was doing me no favors.” It was during the last day I thought, “Oh, I actually have likes, I might actually make top 2?” But always doubted my placement up till the last 30 minutes. I remember reading a bunch and just, from there, avoided it where possible. It wasn't until much later, when more people started talking to me about it, that I went to check out the contest, the reactions, what was being said and. So, when I did come to (around 7 pm?), I went through group chats to catch up, and went about the day as usual opened up a bunch of streams, and went back to drawing. Hmm, a long while after voting started, I woke up to a series of notifications 'JnXC not even awake', 'He underestimated the power of penis', 'It's 1st now! Got 1k likes' and all sorts. When did you feel like you were guaranteed to win? I wasn't overly excited, as I thought “oh, that's nice but I won't win”.įrom the beginning, your piece was in the lead. What was it like hearing you were in the top 12?Īh, hearing I made it to the finals was nice. Your Juri Costume, “Untamable” recently won the Street Fighter V Costume Design Contest. Currently clearing my plate of commissions…

These days, I find myself drawing art that's a little more on the curvy side.īeing a freelance artist, when I'm not drawing for others, I'm trying to draw for myself with side projects and studies where possible. Over time, it became less fun at the moment, and more like a puzzle that needed to be solved else, it’d keep me awake. These ranged from Street Fighter characters doing signature moves to random Zelda ( Link to the Past ) doodles & “level designs.” I'd always find time to draw growing up, though. Kinda long… as a kid I'd be doodling SNES / Megadrive characters on whatever surfaces available.
