They all good works, but this one is my fav. Congrats.

If ur into souls, should do some from Bloodborne as the art style in that game is gorgeous.

 

[kogasu]

Amazing artwork!!! Ahhh, It looks so awesome seeing all of these great moments in Dark Souls 1 done in this style. Also as shirt designs, I would 110% buy one...or two....or five if you did that but as someone said, I'd hate for you to get into trouble by From lol. Anyway, great job!

 

[TwEE-N-Toast]

Lol, why would he be sued?

You're taking a risk selling copyrighted prints. Doesn't mean you're going to get caught though. A lot of people don't some people do.

 

[RPGCrazied]

Awesome work. I'm sure your profession has to do with your drawing skills, if not you should rethink that.

You'd make a great artist for some company.

 

[DISSESHOWEDO]

Amazing job OP! Do you mind if i use some of your work for a tattoo project of mine (i mean on my self)?

This one captures DS perfectly imo!

Of course its alright, good luck with that, that cant be an easy project to take on.

As for selling prints, it should be fine, my friend Gibbs has had a really good run with his prints over at Sparkly Crow, I think FROM sees it as an extension of the fandom. The bigger it gets, the better for everyone involved.

 

[mjc]

Your work is tremendous dude, great job!!

 

[Carl7]

DS1 was a hell of a game, holy shit.

 

[double jump]

awesome stuff op.
So much movement in you're art. Love it.

 

[Shredderi]

The pictures depict perfectly why I prefer Dark Souls over BloodBorne in the end. I started Dark Souls while I was halfway through Bloodborne and I was totally swept into it's slow burning, calm, melancholic post-apocalyptic atmosphere. Haven't encountered anything similar to it. It's post apocalyptic but not in this chaotic, frenetic way. Super refreshing.

 

[RMI]

Really nice work.

 

[charsace]

Amazing Spaniard. Your art always is though.

 

[Landford]

More than the art itself (Wich is fucking brilliant) i loved the understanding of the "feel" DS has. That Firekeeper one was really good.

 

[3DShovel]

Welp, I want to start another DS run. Great drawings, mate!

 

[gogosox82]

These are amazing. You are very talented. Makes me want to do a quick run of DS1.

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Eventually these are the games I want to give the same treatment to:

Chrono Trigger
Monster Hunter
MGS 3
FF VI

Demons Souls or Bloodborne would be super fun but I like variety

Great picks, good taste sir.

All of those sound like they have the potential to be amazing, especially Chrono Trigger.

 

[daedalius]

Awesome stuff Xavi, always enjoy seeing your art pop up on gaf and twitter

 

[Rhaknar]

Amazing work.

Wish I could draw :/

 

[Gordon Shumway]

Fantastic..wow.

 

[III-V]

Great work! thanks for sharing

 

[Rixxan]

excellent

 

[TheWrathOfSean]

Fantastic man!

 

[DISSESHOWEDO]

Of course its alright, good luck with that, that cant be an easy project to take on.

Much appreciated. Keep them coming, love gaming related artwork and yours could be used in art books imo.

 

[hiryu]

Really great stuff. Very inspiring. I haven't done anything art related in about 20 years but this makes me want to pick up a sketchpad.

This is a very cool idea for a series as well.

 

[AU Tiger]

Awesome work man! Now get a store page up on Redbubble to sell this on shirts, stickers, posters, etc.

 

[deim0s]

These are great man!

Etsy?

 

[silva1991]

This one is my favorite

great work man.

 

[Romars202129]

I love the perspective of these pieces. Instead of recreating the games imagery, you more recreated the situations from a gameplay perspective. Very good.

Edit: Also, this one's my fav. Love the face on the player character. It encapsulates what we all must have been feeling at that moment, without feeling too fourth wall breaking, if that makes any sense.

 

[friday]

These are great man. To me they really capture the feeling of Dark Souls.

 

[The Wall]

Wow. Love, love, love your linework. Great stuff. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.

 

[MR ARCADE FOREVER]

Holy shit amazing stuff man!

 

[E_Darkness]

Big fan of your Quelaag.

Maybe it's because I'm playing Bloodborne currently, but I'd love to see some of that. But those other games are some good choices.

 

[Gears]

This is really rad

 

[cj_iwakura]

Great stuff, kind of sad it stopped at Anor Londo, I think everyone knows what I was hype to see.

 

[Hassun]

Beautiful work. I especially like how you managed to capture some of melancholy that pervades all of Dark Souls.

 

[WORLDWIDEWII]

good stuff. nice job!

 

[LegendX48]

I remember these from the inktober thread, fantastic stuff, man.

 

[Sibersk Esto]

These are fantastic. It's the kind of talent that inspires me, no joke.

 

[Fallout-NL]

DS1 was a hell of a game, holy shit.

Yes, these moments illustrate that nicely. What a journey.

Amazing work OP, congrats on the obscene amounts of talent you are obviously blessed with

 

[SouSouRocket]

Nthing the kudos, these are really gorgeous and I say that also as someone who has never played and will never play the game. You're really selling me on it. Suuuuper looking forward to Chrono Trigger stuff from you when that time comes! Thanks for sharing your work with us!

 

[Raging Spaniard]

Im not tooo certain on the blessed part but thanks all the same, its super nice to see this connecting with so many people.

 

[Hastati]

Awesome stuff, thank you for sharing this project. You should do this at launch for DS3 while you play, even if it's just in the form of brief impressions on a scratch pad -- be great to chronicle the sights and sounds as you first experience them.

Edit: was this from an initial playthrough, or an idea that sprung up after being well-acquainted with the game? Either way, your artwork is fabulous.

Also, what's the visual difference between a gloss and matte metal print? Does the glossy metal print become super shiny?

 

[captain_skyhawk]

Absolutely amazing work

 

[cj_iwakura]

Those are great too, namely

Those are great too, namely

Yeah he does fantastic work, we worked together at EA for a number of years, now hes at Hasbro doing toy stuff

 

[Spman2099]

My God... This stuff isn't just good... This is beyond simply being competent...

You should have a dedicated fanbase. People should be collecting your artbooks.

Thanks! Im a longtime Souls fan but I only beat the game last year, so it was fresh in my mind plus I followed it up by pouring over the research of epicnamebro, vaati vidya and others.

Oh I also watch Jeff Green streams, so that was a big help lol

A live DS3 art play-through could be cool!

I personally go for matte, less glare and a better fit for my style

 

[Elixist]

One New Londo piece would be so sweeeet. Scary yet serene. One of my favorite vibes/atmospheres in a game ever.
