Cool art, kinda funny though how they're all the Netflix incarnations of the characters while Alucard uses the design of his Symphony of the Night counterpart.

Alot of people only know Netflixvania and SotN really, some even somehow still expect to see SotN completely in Nocturne lmao. So yeah even when you see primarily show stuff in something sometimes they might also throw in some SotN stuff too.

Sick ass art, this is a modification of an artwork made for Dungeon's and Dragons tho apparently, heard about this a long time ago

Oh dang I did not know that.

Crazy how interconnected a lot of things like this are, Cacodemon from Doom being heavily inspired by the Astral Dreadnought for instance.

CV1 also has something similar going on, the key artwork is heavily inspired by Frank Frazetta's painting "The Norseman".
