"For me, no image distills 80s one-on-one martial arts combat more perfectly than a Van Damme flying kick to the face. Trying to depict this with as much impact as possible, I painted Dux from a low angle, soaring over the crowd and blasting out of frame through Chong Li's face. I split the composition in half with diagonal speed lines, emphasizing the iconic clash that inspired a generation of fighting games and the sport of mixed martial arts." -Gian Galang "Gian’s passion for the martial arts is undeniable. He pays close attention to the movement of human forms in combat and brings his intense brushstrokes and impact splatters with methodical paper-craft to prove it. We feel so lucky to be working with a traditional-media artist who is not only a huge fan of the film but also so well versed in the martial arts to create this unique BLOODSPORT poster for Mondo. 'Perfect timing, tight as a drum. The final battle’s already won.' KUMITE! KUMITE! KUMITE!" -Josh Manderville, Art Director

The layered ink on this 8-color screenprint is unreal, the reds pop off the French Construction paper like they’re glowing. I’ve been staring at the detail work on Van Damme’s fists for way longer than I should admit.
Evelyn★★★★★
The 8-color screenprint really pops against the French Construction paper—the texture gives it a nice, tactile feel. I framed it for my home gym and it's the perfect tribute to the movie. Shipping was quick and the print arrived flawless.
Ava★★★★☆
The paper has a nice toothy texture that really makes the vibrant colors pop, especially the reds in the fight scenes. I’d have liked a bit more detail in the darker areas, but it’s still a striking piece.
