indigozealSH fanartist kirureshio limits their palette to a few intense colors (mainly black and red) and works more in shadows and mad splashes and strokes instead of line art, but at their best - such as this work of Angela or these in the middle of Harry in town or James poised to jump or with their frequent muse Walter Sullivan - their work is truly illustrative, evocative and steeped in emotion like the series itself at its best. I also like the artist's propensity for providing a score for their work, or a quotation they feel is apt.
This is the best synopsis of the first part of 999. (That said, if we all get through SGF's weekly stream of the game without any of the folks who dearly dearly want to spoil the ending of the game spilling the beans, it will be a goddamn miracle.)
(SH2 spoiler warning on the first one here:) These are never not hilarious. CYBLL HLP FILE A RPEOTRT
I'm hesitant to classify this wholeheartedly as something that made me happy - it's rife with lad humor and I made it only about ten minutes in - but it's intriguing to note the existence of this Let's Play of Hugo 2: Whodunit? by Yahtzee Croshaw & friend. The Hugo games, despite their bedroom-programmer pasticheness, were standards of the days that you could do your videogame shopping at grocery stores and their shareware racks, and it's interesting that they found their way halfway aroudn the world to the guy who made 5 Days a Stranger et al. as well. (I kind of have a soft spot for Hugo 2 and its bright primaries and incoherent manor-house mystery, despite its MS Paint backdrops and aggravating puzzles.)
I'm sad to report that Run Button's Silent Hill 2 LP concluded in a passive-aggressive vein after several tech problems and our heroes getting seriously bogged down at the hospital. But they gave us the best apartment fight with Pyramid Head and made epic use of the Great Knife in the last portions of the game, and for that they must be saluted.
For all the grief I give Gamespite, their stage-by-stage retrospective of Castlevania III is actually damn intriguing. (I was a big Sypha fan in the day and I never knew she was that powerful. I finished the game by cheesing the final boss with Alucard's weak projectiles, actually.)
As introduced by Arthur Wolfe, Countdown Vampires, with its one-handed-shotgun-racking, tribal-tattoo-sporting protagonist who puts RE3 Jill Valentine to shame in terms of wardrobe impracticality, is a thing of beauty. So much so that I ordered the game shortly after seeing the LP. It arrived today! But more on that later.
ETA: STEELSTRINGS! STEELSTRINGS IF YOU ARE READING THIS WHY DID YOU NOT INFORM ME THAT THERE IS NOW LATONA FANART ON THE INTERNET
SHE LOOKS AWESOME AND FLAWLESS AND HER EXPRESSION IS PERFECT
THIS IS EVEN BETTER THAN COUNTDOWN VAMPIRES
