Dante “Devil May Cry”

The collar is standing up perfectly, too~ (Development Member N)<\/p>\n

He\u2019s making his debut from the “Devil May Cry” series<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Edmond Honda from “Street Fighter 6”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

I agonized over whether to make him huge and muscular, or just go with the classic Honda look… but in the end, I decided to give him that powerful vibe that\u2019s so typical of Honda. (Harukomori)<\/p>\n

PR TIMES<\/a> <\/p>\n

He\u2019ll be making his debut in Street Fighter 6<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Juri “Street Fighter 6”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

I tried to capture Juri\u2019s signature provocative vibe through her poses and expressions. (Haruko Mori)<\/p>\n

PR TIMES<\/a> <\/p>\n

She will be appearing in Street Fighter 6<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Leon “Resident Evil: Requiem”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

Since he\u2019s the oldest member of this group, I focused on giving him a sense of stability and presence.
I hope you enjoy the differences in his skeletal structure and body mass compared to Grace. (Developer T)<\/p>\n

PR TIMES<\/a> <\/p>\n

He appears in ” Resident Evil: Requiem<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

Grace “Resident Evil: Requiem”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

I aimed for a professional look befitting an analyst, but I\u2019d be happy if you could also sense her characteristic charm. (Developer T)<\/p>\n

She appears in Resident Evil: Requiem<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Rudy “Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twin Dragons of Destiny”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

It was a pleasure to be in charge of a character who\u2019s so much fun just to draw.
Thank you! (Harukomori)<\/p>\n

Diana “Pragmata”
\n\"\u4eba\"PR TIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

I was drawing this while pondering all sorts of things\u2014what innocence is, what childlike qualities are…
I\u2019d be happy if even a little bit of Diana\u2019s cuteness comes through. (Harukomori)<\/p>\n

She\u2019ll be making her debut from Pragmata<\/a>.<\/p>\n
