Très bien fait, j'ai vraiment adoré ce Artbook. Par contre, ils ne parlent pas des nouveaux personnages qui sont apparus dans le DLC commme Blanka, Bryan, Lei, Dudley et etc.

This is Udon's translation for the Japanese artbook (ISBN 4862333443) that came out in April 2012. The video game came out in March 2012.
For some reasons, the Japanese artbook reviews were not very favourable.
The character illustrations are mainly by Kazuma Teshigawa from Polygon Pictures. Only a handful of artwork are from old time Street Fighter artists like Akiman or Kinu Nishimura. The style is different. Kazuma Teshigawa likes to mix his illustrations with some sort of 3D water effects which looks a bit weird.
42 characters are featured in the book, not including the 12 extra ones from the downloadable content. Those video game companies like to release extra characters after the game hits retail shelves. As a result, artbooks are unable to feature the whole cast, especially for Street Fighter.
I've not played Tekken before so some of their characters look a bit unusual to me. There's Kuma the bear, King with the leopard head, the non-human boss Ogre, Pac-man and Mega Man who's some cheap looking middle age guy in costume.
There's a section on character splash art, and another on the character designs. The latter has many weird costume swaps for the characters. It's the fat-Rufus-in-angel-costume-with-fluffy-wings-and-halo kind of weird. The 3D character models are great but printed too small. It comes with the character profile and interesting commentary from the staff.
Other art included are screenshots of trailers and endings. The art for stages are again printed too small.
There are four interviews with the staff. The first is with Polygon Pictures that talks about the game's visual design, such as the use of water over the sumi ink style from Street Fighter IV. The second interview is with DIMPS who are in charge of character modeling and the game mechanics. The third is from Akiman and fourth from the Tekken team.
The characters are alright but the art direction of the game feels different compared to Street Fighter IV.
Recommended more to fans of the game.

Cool book, but not as good as past artbooks.

The book is nicely binded and beautiful.
That being said, the majority of it is game endings and miscellanous infomation of the game. NOT the collection of artwork I was hoping for.
Not too bad, just not really an "Artbook". More like a "Making of" book.

I bought this along with the art book for Ultimate Marvel vs Capcom, and this was the one that definitely felt like it didn't hold up. There didn't seem like there was nearly as many concept sketches, just a lot of rough designs, with multiple costume recolors. The finished art looked great, but some of the roughs looked exceedingly sloppy - stuff I probably wouldn't have chosen to include.
