So I was browsing through this here Game Informer magazine (the one with Hitomi in a bikini on the cover) and I see what looks very much like official SNK art on a Capcom game, Dino Stalker. this is the best pic I could find on the net of what I am talking about. Very odd...

---

Yes it is, the same artist did the cover for Final Fight GBA. Forget the artist's name, but I do believe it's a female.

It's Shinkuro, and he's a man.

exactly! and since the old SNK is dead and at the same time they were doing CvS2 he/she( I heard she's a girl?!?) now works for capcom,for dino stalkers, Final fight, and gouls and ghost on GBA.

Anyway Pointstick, can you post the Hitomi pics?.

Well, it's a magazine cover and I have no scanner, so no.

Nope, Shinkuro is a man. And he does freelance work; Capcom just happens to be hiring him at the moment, because he's no longer tied to SNK specifically. If SNK felt like paying him again, he'd probably do stuff for them again.

Update: Eh, just replace each " SNK " with " the company formerly known as SNK " ...

Sorry MR Berstein, I'll never do it again!
Well since now it's SNK/playmore, I call the old one SNK.

As for Shinkiru, I've heard many people tell me that he a man than other telling me she a girl(with a bad temper) so I don't really know....

No, I was correcting myself there. ^_^
Yes, people keep saying he's a girl, but he isn't. I think the rumour was started a while back, and it sticks around because people probably think it would be cool if he was a " she " .

he is one of the worst things to happen to SNK art, IMHO. KOF, SS, ICK. Senri Kita is MILES ahead of him. Eiji Shiroi is pretty good too...some very memorable stuff. All the SNK stuff from SHINKIROH though...

...it makes me want to cry, seeing my favorite characters depicted in such a manner...

---

lol, i don't like his art that much either. sometimes it looks good, but most of the time it's boring. he draws girls pretty well, but all of the males he draws look dumb or gay imo. then he crossed the line in CvS1-2....
