Description
Drawing unintentional inspiration from a bit of Eastern philosophy here (was reading up on some of my old architectural theory notes... yeah go figure XD ) The Yin Yang struck me as really appropriate for these two with its symbolism of interconnection and interdependence of opposing forces - Kind of like Vega and Chun's mutual attraction and repulsion towards each other.Note: I loosely applied this symbol more for graphic purposes, rather than going too deep into it because it is more profound than what I have actually implied here.
I used the "calligraphy brush" again considering the context, but the hardest part was somehow coming up with mid fight poses for them that would suit a Yin Yang design, and at the same time try to show them to be both beautiful and deadly as they are reputed to be.
Disclaimer: I am not suggesting any pairing possibilities with this pic. Merely just Vega vs Chun. You are welcome to interpret it otherwise, but please don't bite my head off for it (seeing as some people can get very passionate bout pairings...)
-----------
Minor changes made - taking some good advice from my buddy Namely, adding some ink splotches to give it more movement and depth, and I changed the angle of Chun's foot because it wasn't looking right with the flow before. Thanks, dude!

Thanks!Β I like this pairing too, but yeah I think ships are personal and everyone likes different ones

That's true. I honestly have no clue why I tend to ship the weirdest crack couples though >.<

I would honestly get this as a tatoo.Β Is there anyway you will ever sell prints, I would buy some of your Vega artwork in a second.Β Let me know please!Β Amazing art.

Thanks!Β I'd be very honoured if you actually did get this tattooed ^^Β I'm not selling prints of my work for now, but you don't need a print to get this done - just right click and save the image, I'm sure the tattoo artist can make a stencil from that 
Thanks again for asking and glad you like my work!

He should probably get a haircut. Β She's gonna yank that tail and turn him into some sorta helicopter over the head and slam his ass into a brick wall.

Chun li is all "here, lemme rub my knee softly up against your chest."
While Vega was all like "don't kick me gurl... Ima jump away like some a spanish ninja watchow!"

LOL it was so hard to figure out how to pose them so it flows XD

This is awesome, weird part is those two are my best characters in street fighter

Thanks! I can only use Vega, not Chun XD
π: 0 β©: 2
no, I just didn't bother investing the time and effort for Chun like I did learning Vega LOL

Ha well everyone has their own character that they can use, I suck at the other characters

Also I never understood how to do he mega move every time I try it never happens yet when I least expect it I dammit some how
π: 0 β©: 1
Fuuuu... Yes sorry I'm so used to playing smash bros at my friend's house, yes I'm terrible when it comes to that, yet I still do fine with the regular moves

I find that Street Fighter especially is a lot more technical in comparison - I mean I still enjoy Smash Bros, but it's not nearly as hard to master as Street Fighter when it comes to timing and execution of the moves, especially if you're playing characters like Vega

Oh yeah, street fighter can be down right embarrassing. I always try to never take it seriously, because I'll probably lose my shit. ;D
π: 0 β©: 0
Yeah, that's understandable, it's just really boring playing it by myself, don't get me wrong i love the game, but I wouldn't mind some company either
π: 0 β©: 1
yeah I know what you mean - the cpu's get really predictable -__-

Indeed, but I admit I have a little laugh when I try to get my grandma to play, let's just say she's a pretty sore loser, hence why I needed to get a new controller
π: 0 β©: 1
wow... that would be hilarious XD Poor grandma!
π: 0 β©: 1
Ha, I love her even though she keeps bugging me all the time, though I tried to get a The friend who plays smash bros with me to play it, she didn't like it, said it wasn't as fun 
π: 0 β©: 1
Smash would be easier for her to play in that case than SF - you actually need to remember inputs for SF, whereas smash is just pressing A and B XD
π: 0 β©: 1
Ha, that I have to admit is true, though I still wish she would have tried a little harder, but oh well everyone has preferences in their gaming likes and dislikes, but at least she gave it a shot. The inputs at times do get tedious, though that's mostly because I haven't played it in awhile yet, now that school is out I have some time to play it again

Looks cramped, but passonate and dangerous. I bet they'd make a dysfunctional couple if they ever got romantically involved.
π: 0 β©: 2
Chunli has a lot of adversaries that she has to contend with,Vega is just only one of 'em!
π: 0 β©: 1
But who doesn't have a lot of adversaries in that series.
π: 0 β©: 0
That's the point hehe ^^
LOL yeah so dysfunctional, which is why I find them interesting as a pair XD

Oh my goodness I'm so behind on my DA @_@
This is awesome

It's ok, hun - we all have lives outside of DA XD
Thanks! Yeah I got some requests for this to be made into a tshirt. I was thinking about doing it myself, but then I don't know if Capcom might get annoyed at me for doing it
π: 0 β©: 1
Mmm....Well, you should be pretty okay doing it. I mean.... [link] 
π: 0 β©: 1
That and also just the principleβ¦ Iβd be pretty annoyed if someone goes and does the same thing with my original ideas/works without my consent. I was thinking of contacting Capcom themselves and asking for permission first, but just donβt know where and how to contact themβ¦ I was able to contact them via their SF page on facebook a few times to thank them for featuring my work there, but my husband said that would prolly be someone who just looks after their blogs and fb pages, and not marketing?? Do you think itβs worth a shot though?
