Title: Dracula's Curse art...scenes from the game
Post by: Green Stranger on May 29, 2012, 05:29:56 PM
Here's a couple of simple sketches I've been working on in dedication to CVIII. I plan to make dozens more. These are some various scenes from the game like the clocktower stage. I'm working on some panels at moment depicting the battle between Trevor and Grant. As for Sypha's background, I'd say the best way to identify it is the familiar sunset stage where you fight the mummies and pazuzu. I also threw in some slight color matching for the palettes in the actual stages, nothing too spot on though.

Nice  ;)

Sypha's outfit really  fits well within the times they are represented in. Also it's nice to see Trevor's original outfit as well. CoD's Trevor should stayed with that look as it too, is more in with the time of the game.

Those are really great! The only thing I don't like is Sypha is way too busty, I don't understand why artists do that. Especially in CV judgment. People seem to forget Sypha was disguised as a man. Also, I just think busty women in video games/ comics, etc. is just ridiculous all the time.

But really great artwork!

If you take a look at the history of humankind, out of all the three main genus' it is the Caucasoid women that have the largest of breast size. Nowadays it's pretty-much all around. But back before the whole of the Earth became a mixing pot, the aforementioned was true. Sypha's bust is about average if not leaning towards the larger side of the spectrum. And yes I can agree that her outfit, while historically accurate to many extents, Doesn't do well to hide her identity. But it's the old artistic license at work here. i personally like it as it stays true to her character unlike Judgement's design.

Her tits look like my girl's. If she didn't have an archaic bra under that, you wouldn't notice the tits much. But I see a lot of girls with tits like that every day at work. ... When they get older, I wish I wouldn't see tits like that... But on the young ones, they give me reason to come to work every day.

It seems TheouAegis is a fellow boobataligist.

On topic: I think those pictures are pretty good. I also looked at some of your other stuff and IMO it's all great.

Thanks fellas. As for Sypha's lack of sexual ambiguity with the rack size and all, lets just say that's a style I've kept up with since I first started drawing. One of my main influences in art is Adam Hughes and I guess thats where I got that sort of "shapely" technique from.
 
Personally I never really cared for the whole Sypha hiding her identity deal. It's not really a major plot detail that's needed to keep the game afloat. Even if she was completely covered up I'm sure Trevor and the gang could notice her nice stubble free face, a very female-like scream when she's hurt, and possibly some soft girly hands. That's just my take on the matter. Redesigning the characters to my liking is the best part about making fan art. Now I'm just wandering how I'm going to draw Alucard. Long hair or short hair?
