Castlevania Retexture Project

[Googol]

Hey! Made some hi-res Castlevania textures. Haven't done many so far - only a few pretty unimportant ones.

Pack includes:
-Carrie's head ingame - (a bit creepy... delete it if you don't like it)
-Carrie's head at intro
-Carrie's pants at intro
-Necronomicon bookcover
-Health and Boss Bars
-That's it. More pending.
Currently only tested for version "Castlevania (E)(M3)" of the game.
Sorry about the abundance of pictures.

Good work so far. I would back off the bevel a fair bit for the book cover though. If you look at the original it only has a slight bevel. If your using the Photoshop bevel I would leave it at the default of 5 for that.

Not alot of castlevania fans accept the 64 game, but I thought it was pretty bad ass. I always thought re-texturing it would be a good idea. GJ!

it was the most stupidly hard game ever made lol...but it was amazing at the time...i remmember forking out my 45 quid on that game and getting chased by those damn exploding skeletons every 5 minutes lol

Not to mention all those people who wasted their money on the "Castlevania 64" when shortly after a expansion dubbed Legacy of Darkness would come out with more content. LoD was waaaaaay better.

Pretty good on the cover, can't really see the other differences in your screen shots.

Improvements for the cover would be...
-Keeping it symetrical
-Tail feathers
-Eyes

Developed a "Quick Fix" for the cover... is it an improvement?

[Kolano]

Much better.

One other note would be that the corner bits of the cover have a bit more detail in the original. More like spiders, or scorpions than the squid like bits in yours.

Sorry to be so picky. Wonderful work thus far!

I would even add more tarnish or scoring on the metal parts. The book texture itself is probably good to go.

Oh, one other thing. Notice the slight cross present in the center of the original.

Er, slight isn't the right word. Barely visible.
