So... How does this work?
As a sketching excercise, I have decided to draw one character from a fighting game every week, going through the entire roster of a game before moving on to another one.
The first game up is my favorite game, Street Fighter Alpha 3.
I will be drawing them in this order:
All artists are invited and encouraged to join me on this excercise.
If you'd like to participate, e-mail entries to rondanchan@gmail.com. Please e-mail JPEGs or GIFs only. For best results, please make the long dimension of your image at least 650 pixels. Entries can also be posted at this Shoryuken.com discussion topic: Click. I'll be checking it regularly. To be included in the participating artists list, please include what name you'd like to be listed as and any of the following info you'd like to give: contact e-mail, website, shoryuken.com screen name.
Art in any medium is acceptable, and can be anything from a simple sketch to a full blown illustration. The main idea is to keep a regular schedule of incoming art, so I would rather have people submit a sketch every week rather than a full illustration only every few weeks. But if you really want to do some more involved artwork, knock yourself out =P
Entries are due every Friday by midnight (PST).
I will post entries up on this site soon after each due date. Here is a complete schedule:

The due dates are just goals to keep it regular. It would be cool if we had a lot of people sending in art every due date, but I know people are busy. If you miss some, or are late, nobody's gonna yell at you, and chances are, I'll post late art anyways. Also, if you join in late, and you want to submit art for a character we already passed, go ahead and send it, but please do the current character too! ^_^
HAVE FUN!
