              [Photos] Street Fighter Photoshoot!

              AhhhYUkin! Here is a great “blast from the past” set of Street Fighter photos from photographer Alexander Nerozya. He and his friends came together to create a pretty impressive collection of images that any gamer would be proud of. Open the post to see his full description of how he made the images, complete with BTS shots and video. Enjoy!

              Click HERE to see how Alexander went about creating these images in his BTS blog post.

                Awful.

                yeah, these are actually really bad.

              • themsquaredgroup

                Wow that’s rough. I would not shoot Street Fighter photos unless you KNOW you can rock them. These are shot by my buddy Bosslogic who recently was commissioned by Capcom to do the Street Fighter x Tekken downloadable wallpapers.

                Love the wigs, so cheesy! :D
                I think these pictures prove that no amount of post processing can save awful pictures.

              • watisthisidonteven

                Seriously… While I’m sure the cosplayers liked them, these are just awful.   I used to love playing streetfighter, I even sat through the terrible movie in the 90′s, but these images are just so terrible.

                Less photoshop and more time behind the camera would do this guy some good.

              • Cippo Faccia Da

                I think that FS i becoming a little bit overloaded and publishing this crap prove it.
                You were doing such a good work please don’t sell of yourself with the only aim of the site’s growth. Less posts more quality.
                Thanks

                Forget the PS, forget how fake or real, or good or bad the photos are. I think the message is get out, have some fun and shoot……..

                I can’t let this go as some of the comments in this post have been out of order.

                If you don’t like this genre, fine, it’s understandable as, as the saying goes, you can’t please all of the people all of the time.

                But to be so damn outright nasty about it? There’s really no need. If you don’t like a post like this (or its content) you really do not have to read it, just move on and accept that other people like different things to you.

                Or is it just Photoshop snobbery?

                I’m really disappointed.

              • http://www.facebook.com/kahleem.poole Kahleem Poole

                Some of these are cool. But um, is it hard for Westerners to understand that Chun Li is CHINESE, not white. WTF?

              • http://www.facebook.com/magicflcl Dong Fu

                if the photo is not that much HDR then it maybe better closer to realistic way to represent. just don’t like the touchness color.

              • ValentinoAntonio

                Too much over the top post! AND using PS edits that can be found on any tutorial site, AND making edits you can see on thousands of other images.

                I appreciate the work, but not the result or methods used. . . . ata certain point it becomnes redundant and obvious. 

              • http://twitter.com/Jet5tar Chris Lyn

                Although some of the comments are pretty harsh, one has to remember that this is a photography site; those pictures seem more about Photoshopping rather than photographing.

              • http://twitter.com/Angelrebirth Michael Marcopoulos

                The worse street fighter pictures ever, Ken and Guile are just ridiculous, and Chun-li looks like a painted caucasian.

              • http://twitter.com/willianbs Willian Silveira

                If some people like it or not, they have the same rights to say it. Or the comments section is only for compliments?

                That means that if I don’t like something I can’t say it?

                THIS is bullshit.

              • http://twitter.com/willianbs Willian Silveira

                BTW, Ken look like the 80′s Hulk ;)

              • ajmills

                To save you actually reading my comment again, II said: “If you don’t like this genre, fine, it’s understandable [...]”

                Of course you are entitled to your opinion, and you are entitled to express it.

                What I am objecting to is the WAY it is being expressed.

                Can’t you articulate why you don’t like it? Can’t you do better than to just call it bullshit? Would you talk to the artist like that to their face, or are you like everyone else, hiding behind the internet? Now, that is bullshit.

                WOW!

                Some of you are just beyond fan boys.

                Corey did point you to the photographers web site which seems to be from Russia: 
                http://fotokvadrat.livejournal.com/583.html#cutid1  

                Not AMERICAN like others have stated, Also some of the hair was done in post, Yes! The wigs look horrible but there is no need for all the abuse, Ever heard the saying if you have nothing to nice to say don’t say nothing at all?!?!

              • johansec

                I am really disappointed by the rudeness of a lot of the commenters.  Whether you like the work or not there is no reason for such rudeness.  I went to the profile page of a couple of the commenters and there was nothing much to see in their photo sections. Wankers!

              • http://twitter.com/bjcalabrese briancalabrese

                meh.. not for me.. 

              • MarkFore

                it reminds me of cheesy 90′s photography which i personally love. so i think it is a successful shoot.

              • Stuckonduhmode

                Actually, they’re not shot by him. He takes stock images and manipulates them. Big difference. However, he does have photoshop skills.

                I’m a street fighter fan and the idea of the above pictures are great. However the expressions, posing, and compositions could have used more planning.

              • http://www.facebook.com/mefis Alejandro Alvarez Fotografia

                In a very personal way, I don’t like the images but I won’t say they are bad on any way. Maybe the author wanted his photos to look like that for a reason and at the end at least he made what he wanted.

                also, lol at internet critics. 

              • http://twitter.com/Sony311 Republic

                I think what was accomplished was well done for what the idea was. Some compositing work needed but pretty well done overall. For those that complain about too much photo-shopping, let’s get real – PS and Photography go hand in hand nowadays look at some of the best photographers out there that most on this site have probably attempted at their style (Dave Hill, Annie Lebovitz, Jill Greenberg, Dave LaChapelle) . For the obvious rude punks that commented, I don’t see any of your photos are any better so I wouldn’t really wouldn’t open yer big yaps so much ;)

              • http://twitter.com/Sony311 Republic

                ONLY ONE WAY TO SETTLE THIS -> All those that gave the rudest comments -> I Challenge you to do better and then post it on here for criticism. I bet none of you cowards could do any better…

                 Honestly, if the photographer and all involved with the project really liked what they did then so be it. It may not be that great but IMO for the idea behind it and execution I give it a thumbs up.
