#did this with Cayin now it's Ornstein's turn #first of all I really like the 'dirty concept art' or 'Roughly but beautifully drawn illustration' feel of Etching #it's close to making sense #Dark Fantasy's got those vibes... definitely his colours but also it feels like in the first one it's someone looking towards the camera #while another has their back turned- just Ornstein stuff? Perhaps something symbolic with the Firstborn? #Second one feels like he's pointing his spear at you #...random thought just now but what if this was a vague visualization of his soul- linked to his memories and armor... #onto Fantasy now and Dragonslayer looks so sick. Beautiful and inspiring that sense of magnitude- to hunt a creature so great #lovely colors too #meanwhile the second Fantasy one feels like it could very well be a depiction of Ornstein and Anor Londo from somewhere far away #art of a story warped by time and adapted to distant cultures in its visual depictions #The Ukiyoe one feels like it could be him and Gwyn... Gwyn's colors don't match at all but once again: art for a story #written and drawn by people who truly wouldn't have any idea what Gwyn looked like... #with Ornstein 'ornate golden armor' suffices #the AI is definitely getting that Dark Souls info from his name tho #ai meme #art #inspiration
