I just think his final ascension slaps SO hard
#;ooc#ooc#;d.ante#i like that it has some reminiscences to how paintings depicted the actual d.ante (fashion wise)#like the pointy shoes; the triangle shape on his chest that is like the one he has on d.omenico's painting#the laurel crown; the long robes; the use of red and black mainly#while still holding onto this fantasy game vibe look; like he just fits into f.go perfectly#the index and middle finger together making a reference to c.hrist (c.hristian iconography) as paintings often depicted this type of pose#a reference to the actual d.ante being c.hristian i assume#the spirals/circle-like patterns inside his robe#usually we tend to see those type of patterns when concepts like despair or madness want to be conveyed#it also fits with the whole layers of h.ell theme#also i might be tripping but the knot he has on his waist might be thisone type of knot made for rock climbing#which is also very fitting as a reference to canto 1; the start of the i.nferno part#bc it starts as he is in these dark woods and he sets out to climb up a small mountain to take a better view#but gets blocked by 3 beasts and so on so forth#i MIGHT be overanalizing it tho but if that was the case that would also be a nice lil detail#i really like when in the designs; there are these subtle elements that are characteristic of the figure in question#even if at first it might look random; which ok- sometimes it is; but also a lot of other times its not; but it gets underseen#its not bad if a design lacks on a 'meaning' behind it; the only difference is that if it has one; it adds a whole bunch more depth#because lets take as an example; a.rtoria/a.rthur's design#its not precisely charged of items/things that are reminiscing of king arthur but its still VERY iconic#it does convey a feeling that the character is either a king or a knight; so it works on that department#even if its lacking a bit on historical nudges and the such#it works in a different department; and thats good too because its afterall; a g.acha game and not a game that seeks historical accuracy#or like a.rash; but i feel like his design is meant more to convey an idea than a stylized cultural representation and/or show elements-#of his story; same as a.rtoria's/a.rthur's case#ANYWAYS WHATEVER#what the heck do i even know#dare i even add;; theres one pattern on his robe with 3 triangles;; the number 3 is also very iconic in the poem; 33 cantos 3 parts
