A long time ago the Ghoul Realm barely escaped great peril. A large army of destroyers came from a neighboring universe. The creatures of the Ghoul Realm were no match for the new powerful destroyers. Just when everyone had given up hope, a great fire swept over the Realm, wiping out the destroyers army.

The Ghoul Realm nearly burnt to ashes.


Firebrand, the Red Blaze/Red Destroyer/Red Arremer from Gargoyles Quest. Also a popular boss in Ghosts n Goblins. Back when Capcom was king of the world.

Really now, is there nothing at all better than finding out that they made another game for your favorite series a long time ago and it was on the SNES? And it was actually done great? I guess what I'm trying to say is, fuck 3D. I miss 2D games, they told so much more, not to mention looked fantastic. And better- some of the heavily detailed 2D things would never make it into 3D without huge amounts of work and FPS drag.

I would ask for C&C on this pic, but it's mostly symbolism so logic falls deaf to me.

Yes, 2D rocks! This is fantastic! Beautiful background and effect! God I wish I had your skill. Must learn more!

I couldn't agree more... those 2d graphics were, like, mad. They have this certain quality to them that I've never seen in any 3d game. It was the big clunky pixels, I think... something about that just made it special.
And as for the pic... KICK... ASS.
The proportions seem a bit off in the arms and legs, but like, seriously, that's nothing. The lighting around the head is great, and the eyes and mouth... The wings... how much time did this take?
Gonna support you with a fav on this one.

:iconrwolf:
Looks good, Cept my only problem is the upper legs, in conjunction with the torso.

Any way That game was impossible to beat...
:iconcanis-lupus:
Like the cloud effect here, and superb sense of lighting as always (though it's a bit sharp around the wings).

Mmmm... SNES. Still have that around somewhere :p (Lick) ....
:iconpiqument:
Nice use of brushes--I wouldn't have picked up on it except that I'd just visited potlan's page. Compression seems like it might be a little high, though...but it does remind of the 2d games.
:icontigerzeye:
Turned out simply amazing. The background adds to it quite a bit, and the shadowing is just perfect.
:iconstinkywigfiddle:
Very dark and scary. Great work on it.
I've been playing classic archade games lately. They are fun and chalanging.
