Fandom draws Victor as fat.

Meanwhile Victor:

I want to run my nails down that back.

I also discovered that his hair is extremely thin at the crown of his head.

His wing has extra joints, allowing it to open much wider. I wonder how much more varied his moveset could have been during combat? Perhaps Victor could have used it as a shield, similar to the enemies in RE6.

Comparison of his height with Tyrant. Two wardrobes. Place your bets, who's knocking down whom?

Now I understand why this render has been floating around the web looking like this. It’s a horrific mess of meshes. I separated them all, and here is what I got:

There's an attack and jump-back animation here.

He's definitely enjoying the process

Vik the breakdancer.

Honestly, this version of his final form looks weird. It's some kind of mixture of reptile and insect. He has segmented limbs, similar to the legs of a praying mantis, and fly wings stick out from his neck (remember the fly with a skull on his ring?)

There's also some kind of tumor growing out of his head.

Instead of a right arm, he has an appendage resembling a feathered wing (I'll make a separate post about this detail analyzing the biblical references in RE9).

It looks like a very early model, possibly even predating Victor's tentacle-arm model. Because, as you can see, his left arm is still there. Does this mean that in the original script, Victor didn’t lose his left arm, and the motorcycle chase didn’t exist at all? How different could the early version of the game have been from what we ultimately got? Every time I think about it, I feel sick.

There is also a piece of clothing on his left arm, but the fabric texture looks more like a lab coat than his snakeskin trench coat.

The scar on his stomach has turned into a toothy tear... and what are those two appendages between his legs? They look like chelicerae, but we all know what you're thinking right now. A male counterpart to vagina dentata? Is double-barrel Victor canon?

Comparing his size to Leon. With dimensions like these, I feel like this should have been his final form – as in, without mutating into a Nemesis.

This is Victor's body

If you hide this part, you can see his ribcage.

This is what his back looks like

And this is his butt.

Side view. He has one tentacle growing clearly from his ass, like a tail.

This nemesis part grew from his back and has its own chest. I counted 3 hearts: two under his ribs, the third near the blister on his “head”.

alexwlwesker has a good post analyzing his final form. The only mistake is in the diagram where the legs are marked – those aren't legs at all, they are Nemesis's arms.

Because Victor is upside down, I used to think Leon was pounding away at his hemorrhoids here. But it turned out to be Nemesis's hemorrhoids. Victor's butt and legs are much further away.

And just when I thought I'd seen it all, this thing managed to surprise me again. I took a closer look at the flesh spreading across the floor around the Nemesis. There are two arms, a skull, and human bodies.

It has always baffled me how Resident Evil bosses can generate a ton of biomass out of nowhere. But in ARK, they did show us a biological waste dump. It would have made a lot more sense if Victor had fallen in there instead of the reactor. Otherwise, I don't know how else to explain the presence of human body parts in his flesh.

I checked the Nemesis model from the RE3 Remake. First of all, Capcom is a bunch of lazy asses. Second of all, it's literally the exact same model with minor tweaks. You can see the same bodies. The same ribs, the same oval-shaped vessel structure. Even the head is the same, with arms instead of hair.

Seriously, why make a new, original model for a final boss when you can just reuse Nemesis from the RE3 Remake?

context:

I drew his head shapes last time, now it's time to figure out how to draw his fits. Mr. Wesker my fashionista diva 💖i WILL draw him off model and i WILL give him 4 inch heels.

closeups + yapping under the cut
