Artist's commentary
Chun-Li

Original art & coloring (Nin nin!), processing (Wan-Pyo)
From the cover of "Tropical Queen vs. C."
Only the standard "blue" color version was used for the actual cover; the "red" version was created for the website.
Surprisingly, I had never actually made a "doujinshi" (fan-made book) featuring Chun-Li before this.
I had focused almost exclusively on SNK characters, and I felt like the market was already saturated, like it might be seen as "too late" to jump on the bandwagon.
I created this "Chun-Li book" as a "Capcom vs. SNK" tie-in; perhaps because it was a rarity, it seems to be selling slightly better than the "Mai book" I produced and displayed alongside it. Go figure.
