For many of you, Monday is either a fond memory or quickly disappearing into your rear view mirror. But I lives on the American west coast, homes, so it's still very much Monday here! You know what i'm sayin', esse?! West Siii-eed!
....... And my pick for the week is...
Drop Bear:
Howdy, thatsa me, has a fondness for fighting games. Why I remember when I received Street Fighter II for Christmas when I was a kid, right after World War II. (Not many people realize that SF II was first released in the early fifties.) It was a great game. All those shoryukens, hadokens, spinning star kicks and me losing.
I like fighting games, but i'm no good at them. But I digress. Often.
Fast forward all these years later and with the new release of Street Fighter V, we find Drop Bear's killer Blanka avi.
Ol' Dropa has skillfully recreated Street Fighter's resident electric man-beast. Observe the ferocity in that face, but also the humanity and the pathos. Okay, I don't know about all that, but it's fun to use the word 'pathos'. -- It give me a warm sense of nostalgia and ultimately, it's a cosplay done right.
So crackin' job to Drop Bear, and congrats on your third star! :D
