Street Fighter 2 North American Manual Art & Bios
|
|
|
|
 Street Fighter series director and designer, Takayuki Nakayama, recently shared some photos from an official North American Street Fighter II: World Warrior manual from
1992. On Twitter, Nakayama posted several pages from the "Capcom Style Guide" manual, showing rare & highly nostalgic character concept artwork, along with full written bios of the original cast (and even entertaining descriptions of their iconic special moves)!  The official character bios also include high-res artwork from the North American
artist behind the iconic Street Fighter II: World Warrior, Champion Edition & Turbo home version box artwork, Mick McGinty.
Here are the official tweets with more images from Nakayama, below.
Mick McGinty is one of the artists appearing in TFG's
