Artist's Comments

A quick evening sketch of Dante Valentine and her demon Japhrimel. I took liberties with Japhrimel's hair so he wouldn't be quite so Matrix-y with it slicked back, and I had no real clue what Dante's Necromance tattoo on her face looked like, so I winged it as well. All in all, I really like how it turned out - hopefully one of these evenings I can do a color treatment to it as well. Based on characters from Lilith Saintcrow's Dante Valentine novels, mainly "Working For the Devil". READ THEM - they're great!

Color!! I'm a huge fan of this series. I love how you envisioned Dante. She's sort of Angelina Jolie-ish. Sexy but serious all at once. I never got the slicked back "neo" hair on Jaf either.

Woot muffins! I was looking for somethin' like this, but all I could find were pictures of Dante from DMC...Much as I love that Dante...that wasn't what I was looking for! Y'know, you should hold a contest for a design for Danny's tattoo...I'd really like to see the results. ^_^ Thanks for this awesome work.

Round we go, on crooked ways or straight,
And well I know that ignorance is our fate,
And this I hate.

i love these books, i just stumbled across them the other day and fell in LOVE with japhrimel. i remember reading that dante's facial tattoo is a caduceus - you know, that winged staff with the two snakes twisted around it that is associated with hermes?

anyway, i love this picture - great job. i like the strong lines, they really make it edgy and exciting.
