M. Bison Places 2nd!

M.Bison landed in a close 2nd place in the mini competition with 829 vs the 1st place winner with 863 votes.

I voted the win for the guy who got it - his presentation is great and you get a sense that he is challenging you, the viewer. I'm always a fan of that sense of immersion. There were some great entries and the total reaching just over 100! Link is below for the entries.

-The Verdict-

M.Bison Bust

I "completed" and submitted an M.Bison bust for the Street Fighter Bust Mini Competition at Game Artisans. I felt inspired to go as a far as i did (with the time i had) but hope to get time to perhaps complete him in full detail in the future.

Bison is a cool character, dispite having bad memories of losing to him :). I really liked the original take on Bison from Shadaloo, being an older heavy-set asiatic man rather than the later young watered-down Henry Rollins (no offense) Bison. I went with a sort-of Chinese Pagoda/Pavillion theme for his garb/plated armor. I listened to much Fear Factory while modeling.

The character was created flying by the seat of my pants for the most part. Images can be found below.

I would still like to do more renders in poses and scenes etc... I don't see getting around to that any time soon though. Also creating a 15k tri 4096 game version of him would be cool too.

I look forward to checking out SF4 when it is released.

I am currently working on a quicky M.Bison bust for a mini competition surrounding the release.
