Street Fighter 2 US game cover artist

[grape]

The artist for this famous and tough cover ( http://www.mobygames.com/game/covers/gameCoverId,15232/gameId,6239 ) is Mick McGinty, creator of the US covers of the Street Fighter II series and more, who did make an interview, which you can find here:

Why do you spam all boards with this very same post?
This is an awefull cover-artwork!

I dunno, I thought it was interesting -- I remember spending hours as a kid trying to redraw that SF II artwork that appeared on the Sega Genesis version.

I think this is a major example of how bad US-artworks were in the early 90´s...

But the real problem is that gape always seems to post exactly the same threads on various boards in German and English, but never has anything to say about other matters than that cover. He may be the artist himself trying to get some praise.

That's funny. I agree though, I've always disliked that cover art.
