Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
I love Castlevania!
n_n I started making artwork bakc in 2008, supported by sprites and photoshop i've managed to make some fanartwork. So here's my castlevania fanartwork Hope u like it. :) -Sr. Lan Belmont |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
I find the castlevania stuff boring tbh because I'm not very interested in the game so I'm not gonna really comment on it.
On a side note: I think you're photography work leaves much to be desired. Edit: In words you should understand: I think it's bad. |

@OP: Also I enjoy your pixel work, although you should work on creating better effects with photoshop. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Edit: Also I'm aware my grammar isn't very good, my spelling would be worse were it not for spell check.
Well to be 100% sure of some of these I'd need to see the originals but here's what I'm thinking. All these pictures are more than likely blurry as that would explain why you'd use that god awful effect on most of them not to mention the fact I can see it blatantly on this picture: http://srlanbelmont.deviantart.com/g...80825#/d2lxrg1. The lighting is ****ing horrible on most of these based on all the white in the shots. Subject placement is equally as bed as they all look like Myspace shots save for http://srlanbelmont.deviantart.com/a...F26580825&qo=4. But either way their bodies are being really stupidly cut off and it's hard to tell the goal behind the picture. And this is completely neglecting the nude picture in that folder by the way. Portraits of people are supposed to show either just the person (school pictures and stuff) or something about them whether it be physically, emotionally or anything else really, and I see nothing in these shots as they're all really boring. It looks like this girl held a camera up just to take her own picture because she doesn't have a tripod and is unaware of the self shoot timer on the camera. I will say there's an exception here http://srlanbelmont.deviantart.com/g...80825#/d2lxr42 this one I could consider good if I saw the original. I do however need to complement the mirror effect on http://srlanbelmont.deviantart.com/g...80825#/d2lxrg1 to make her face appear twice. That's pretty neat. If he can pull that off I don't get why the other ones are so bad. And this is assuming none of these are stolen works which apparently he's guilty of as revealed by this thread: http://www.flashflashrevolution.com/...r.+Lan+Belmont |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Midnight now I had to click into it because of the nude.

Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Yeah I'm not gonna comment on that one.

Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Too bad someone blurred it out so much

Edit: I don't get how you could yourself an artist of any kind, wether it be musician, photographer or graphics artist. All you do is steal other's people work, make crappy edits of them and post them as your own. Even though you posted the original link on your picture there, it's still just a cheap one click photoshop effect you used on it and posted as your own version. What's the artistic value in this? Edit2: Oh wow, none of these pictures are taken by you. They're all "edits". None of this artwork is made/drawn by you either. They're all screenshots with one click photoshop effects. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Just type "castlevania fan artwork" in google picture search and compare the results with yours.
This is no artwork you've done there. It's mostly just a simple screen taken off the game (or even someone else's work) edited with some effects. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Geeeeeeeeeeeeee geeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Edit: Well then rephrase my posts to "His editing is shit." since the pictures aren't his I might as well not dog them to harshly. |

Next time, use models that cannot be traced via reverse image search. It'd be better to use your own artwork as well. |

Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
While I do agree with some of the things said here, I do NOT agree with how it was said. We all had to start somewhere (although if Belmont has been doing this since 2008...well...maybe photoshop just isn't your thing).
If you're into photo-editing though, you might want to plow through some of these good tutorials on photo edits and retouching. http://vandelaydesign.com/blog/desig...ing-tutorials/ It can only help you, and these are the types of edits we would want to see here in the art forum. |

And no, those are not screenshots. Those are sprites (Characters & Backgrounds) merged. |

I do not respect this guy anymore. What bothers me the most is that he takes credit for stuff he "edited" with the click of a button. I can hardly consider this artwork at all. It's just theft. If anything, he has set the bar really high for himself, since I have to be genuinely impressed to consider him respectable again. I suppose I should apologize for my way of saying it in my previous post. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
So here's a few things u people should know about my "artwork":
-Those arent game snapshots. Gameplay snapshots will still have the hp and mp bars. Plus, if u REALLY know castlevania u will realize that in some of my deviations i mix different castlevania characters (from different castlevania titles) with different castlevania backgrounds (from different castlevania titles too). -If i "stole" somebody else work or even Konami stuff, why my deviations hasn't been deleted yet? -I decided to work with sprites since i thought it will be interesting to do something different than drawing (Plus, i suck at drawing) -If my artwork its really that BAD why hasn't anybody complained on any of my deviations/profile? Because its from fan to fans. If u really like castlevania as much as i do (or as any fan does) u will understand the message i want to express on any of my deviations. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
Ok well if you're really transposing these characters onto the backgrounds, do you think you would be up for a challenge?
Transpose this girl onto a castlevania bg. ![]() I know it has nothing to do with the game, and will probably look bad, but being able to do this would certainly lift any doubts anyone has over your skills. The defensiveness of your last post is what is making me think twice about you. Keep in mind, this is a really, really hard image to work with...but if your skills are where you say they are, then you should do decently with it. I don't expect perfection, but I do expect something that at least demonstrates that you know what you're doing. |

Or make your own sprites at least. Quote:
The deviantart members aren't really a good way of measuring how "good" a piece of "art" is. To sum it up: Deviantart is a circlejerkfest. You will hardly get any good feedback on it. And just because someone hasn't reported it yet, doesn't automatically mean it isn't stolen. |

Here it is!
So here it is: ![]() I tried to save as much hair as i could and tried not to bring much of the original pic background. I was going to leave the image without FX but i really liked how the texturizer looks on this one. Conte crayon and graphic pen FX looked cool too and even helped to hide the blurry edges but that left the background unrecognizable. Hope its decent enough. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
stop putting filters
ffs |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
I don't know what to think of this guy. First he does the crappy "arrangement" of music, and now this? Now, the music thing was a bit on my bad side, I take high regard to musical artists, and what this guy made was nothing short of stealing/plagiarism.
As for the artwork, I think Spitfire summed it up pretty damn good. Screen captures with a basic run over with Photoshop don't make the work yours, nor does it really require any attention to it from anyone. (Especially if you are saying it's "your" work") |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
I didn't ask for the filters. Please post one where they're removed. The point of having you do that was to see what sort of extraction detail you're able to do, but you've covered all of it up with really, really bad filters.
General tip that I think everyone here should follow. Don't use filters. Or at least NEVER across an entire image...if you've got parts that you want a certain effect on, sure, but doing this to the whole picture is probably worse than beating up your grandmother with a dildo. |

You're missing the point entirely. YOU did NOT create any of the material. Just slapped them in a photoshop file and clicked a random filter. GJ so much skill, dedication and emotion involved. Quote:

Judging from the first few on that link, I doubt they're using it in an innovative way either. Just childish humor and pottymouthing paired with crappy animation jobs. Quote:
And if you spent more than 15 minutes on these, I feel bad for you. |
Re: Castlevania Fan artwork By: Me
tell this bitch whats up
artists represent all day But seriously, this guy does not deserve this kind of attention. He is a worthless, thieving individual that is not an artist in the musical, artistic or simfile field. What a pathetic excuse for an artist. Come back when you have matured as an individual and as an artist and we will try to assist you in your ordeals. Otherwise... piss off with your "art". It is not welcome here. |

Actually, I think you're the one missing the current point. And Coolboy, repeating stuff said in an unflattering manner is just one step above stupid. "Truth is just truth, not relevance"- Sure, it's hopeless, but you posting your exact same post twice just form a circle. Not supporting anyone, just calling you annoying. |

Don't like the way I post or the content of what I post? Too bad, learn to deal with it. Judging from your post, you don't seem flattering in the least, either. One might even define people such as yourself as a hypocrite. Shocking, huh. For further complaints, critique or other spasmodic fits, contact me over PM. |
