I HATE MY ROTTEN SON!! UNGRATEFUL BOY! ROTTEN BOY!

- it’s fun to be awake & in an upright position

- consciousness is a gift

hastily edited and slapped some DMC3 dante textures on her for now, and honestly it doesnt look too bad

I don't think I posted about it here yet, but I'm making a higher fidelity ps2-esque model of nova mainly just to have an easier-to-decipher art ref for her on hand (some people have a lot of trouble trying to make sense of the actual game models)

if I had infinite money and resources, this is the look I would've gone with for Revenant. High-end PS2 game as opposed to the non-existent PS1.5 look it has going on

Not to say the actual art direction for the game is necessarily a compromise or that I'm not having fun with it, but if it was feasible I would've done this

They were a continuation of the Egyptian tradition of funerary masks but rather than sculpting them and making them of precious metals, they began painting these lifelike portraits.

It’s hotly debated whether this is an example of Greco-Roman realist style imposed on their subjects, or a home grown Egyptian development of their own ancient tradition. Those who say it’s more Egyptian than Roman point out that there’s no surviving paintings in the rest of the Roman Empire that were this realistic. Those who say it’s more Roman than Egyptian point out the arid climate left these portraits intact, and beleive the others in the rest of the empire were lost.

Personally I think you can call them Egyptian because these people, whether of Roman or ancient Egyptian descent, are still the ancestors of the modern Egyptians today.

“Dean’s a bit of a pool shark and also a bit of a gambler. It doesn’t really show it all the time, but it’s definitely implied that there are poker games and pool matches that they can win some money on. And who knows? Dean’s a promiscuous kind of guy. Who knows how he drums up the funds that they use?”
