MAN! I don't know if you guys have the same view of GGXX art as I do,but here's my ten cents,followed by a poll.

It's AWFUL! I hate the no outline part. And the characters don't even look like themselves. Axl and Millia look the worst out of everyone. Venom doesn't look like Venom either.

As an artist,I think there's a lot of things wrong,the eyes,the coloring,e.t.c. The only one that looks decent is May.

I agree, not totally. but I do think the art is not as good as GGX.

but it is'nt THAT bad. it is a different style. As an artist you should seee actually how good those pics are, in a way. They have a more realistic look to them, compared to other games or even GGX's anime-less detailed look.

At least their better than that guy Shinkiro's works. man, he just ruins characters!

Well in my view as an artist, the pictures are bad, but not AWFUL, just not that great.

I actually like the Axl one, looks like Jay of View Askew fame, May I think is the worse one, doesn't capture her charm in the least. Jamm's could be better, her shoulders might look to broad to someone unaware she's leaning forward.

Some of them need a lot of work and the styles not my cup of tea but they aren't too bad.

IMO the Bridget picture is the most frightening...

The artwork is "alright" to me...it's better than the artwork in that flyer long ago...OMG everyone was fat and misshapen.

I think that they are awesome! I know that it is a little different from what is usually done but, that is how new styles aer devloped. If things were done the same way over and over would we have the Mona Lisa? Or even a hi-res 2-d fighting game. Sometimes things change for the worse and sometimes for the better. Personally I think they have a paninted portrait look to them and I really like them.

It's aiight, know what I'm sayin'? Like a lot of people, I like the look of some of the characters but hate the look of others. Johnny got a pretty bad deal with his face IMO, but at least the in-game graphics look good.

The character select screen layout looks fucking awesome for sure though. Heh.

It's brilliant! Very stylish. It's nice to see quality artwork that doesn't subscribe to stereotypical anime design.

I think it looks fantastic. I love the painting-type colouring and the general style. This is some of the best-looking stuff I've seen in years. The only portrait I think looks awkward is Anji's (head is at a very odd angle to his body). For a game that I claim has no soul (the first one anyway), I think it's great. I especially like how the females came out, even Millia's (she ain't cute, and the portrait captures that perfectly).

The new art looks interesting, I'll give it that much. I don't think it's outright bad. Looks kinda nice, actually, though for some reason, the female characters's art freaks me out a bit :p

I find them all right, not the best art I've seen, but not the worth either.

And I think it's Bridget!
Look at the face!! I can't quite describe the similarity, but does anyone else see it?

O_o

Truthfully though the art is growing on me the more I look at it. A few individual drawings still kind of rub me the wrong way though.

Yes, that picture reminds you that bridget is not really a little girl with a yoyo.

Scary...Michael Jackson scary.

The more I look at them. It is some of the best art I have ever seen!
perfect mix of anime/realistic.

shure, some are not that good.(Anji, eddie could be better.)

but the others are amazing!

the ones i think look okay are Ky, May, Millia, Eddy/Zato, Faust, Axl, Testament, Dizzy, Slayer, and I-no. so half of them suck imo. Chipp and Baiken got screwed bigtime! i'm an artist too, but i'd prefer sleak anime portraits than not-so-good painter portraits. just like how i prefer SFIII's character select art before Third Strikes'.

game over?? but i beat the game!
