Gorgonby *Siansaar

Digital Art / Drawings & Paintings / Macabre & Horror

Another Chow.
This week we had to redesign 8bit characters. There were 8 to select from, and i chose Gorgon, from Castlevania 3. You can see the original sprite in the lower right corner.
I struggled quite with the colour sheme,because i wanted to keep some colours from the original sprite. In the end,i managed to put in the pink onto his/her shirt. (As i've never played the game myself,i don't know whether this character is male or female. Since the official gamebox art has quite effeminate males aswell,i chose to go the androgynus route). The red-black combo on the tail was a given choice.
At first the background colour was much kitschier,being more of a sunset than a sunrise. Thank you, colour correction layer.
I'm ultimately really happy with how it turned out. Seems to me the break of a new,epic dawn. I really like that mood.
I imagine him as some sort of middle boss that stalks the player for a long time,quite like the gnome boss in "zelda: twilight princess", until there's some big showdown where you feel really good for finally finishing the bastard off.
