yeah, flame's right, his armor isn't a dragon, His chest piece are curled up bat wings which look ungodly bad-ass...

I wish Walter played a bigger role in the series other than the expendable Dracula figure.

I'm gonna play a little devil's advocate and say there's no real difference between bat and dragon wings other than scale. The only way to know for sure is to ask the original designer of the armor.

True, but I think this Pic pretty much goes in complete favor of the Bat part...

I always looked at Walter's knee-guards, which either are dragon faces, or huge scaley demons.

[KaZudra]

your right, those are dragon heads on his armor....
Bats and Dragons... Highly probable that its both.

Aluard Becomes a Dragon Statue sometimes when turned to stone

I usually go by the artist's style in which she rarely does dragons, but loves the bat wings.

[Inccubus]

Alucard's big state thing looks like a demon to me.
Either way, the style of Walter's armor is tenuous evidence of a connection to Dracul at best.

Good point Since Walter's name means to Rule an Army, and the Dragon is a Symbol of The Dragon.
In a Way, Walter is the Father of Dracula.

Maybe LoI symbolism is a Reverse Time repeating itself in a metaphor...

Walter is to Vlad II -> Dracul (Dragon) The Father of Vlad III and Vlad IV

Walter Possessed all of Dracula's Powers including a breif moment of Dracula's Second Form.
When Mathias "absorbed Him" He became reborn as Dracula, Inheriting all of Walter's abilities and Powers.
Kinda Like a Father - Son Relation. thus Dracula is Vlad the Impaler as a symbol

Walter is also responsible For The Vampire Killer and mostly responsible for Leon's turn from Nobility to a Vampire Hunter.
in that time, Walter was able to Transform Leon into Someone completely different from where he started too.
Simular to a rebirth but on a different alignment.

The Relation of Mathias and Leon were very close, close to as like a brotherhood.
When Mathias Cursed God and Leon Took up the Place of God's Work it ultimately came to two symbols of two people similar
Mathias as to Vlad III The Impaler and Leon to Vlad IV the Saint, Vlad III's Half Brother.

Maybe LoI Doesn't Quite Click with the Timeline as much as it should due to many elements involving Dracula, but the Symbolic nature of the Game is quite supreme and it dissapoints me on a very deep level on how poorly the story was told, given that there was alot IGA could work with but he chose to do so little in compairson.
