Dirge of Cerberus is a game I haven’t played, but I heard things about it from my dear , or more specifically the relationship between these two, Vincent Valentine and Rosso the Crimson. Until recently I, like most of you, wasn’t familiar with the latter. To summarize in brief she’s one of Vincent’s mortal enemies in the game, quite formidable with a sexy Romanian accent (think vampire). Not to mention that she’s a psychotic/egomaniacal/homicidal/cold-hearted killer. It was love at first sight.

I was really poked with a hot poker into making this picture by Belle. Her tastes as well as her ideas were a huge influence. I hope you guys like it as much as I, and it was finished rather quickly, too (a day instead of the usual 1 week per painting). Was also going to hold out posting this until the 14th but I sort of had a change of heart
