I loved the character of Godwyn, the mysterious and achingly beautiful man of the Elden ring.
Because of the setting of the plot, Prince Godwyn is like a golden leaf floating on the ground after the kingship is broken, laying out the chaotic world of today.
His exact likeness is lost in the game's setting, CG images and the game itself. But we can vaguely see the conception of a young male with blonde hair, tall and handsome, so I drew this image, set in a time when Godfrey has been exiled and the prince is triumphant after winning the battle against the dragons.
Despite being called a prince, he doesn't look thin and green, but rather like a general.
The soundtrack uses the third movement of German Romantic composer Brahms' Symphony No. 3 in F Major.
In my imagination, Godwyn might be like this piece.
对埃尔等法环神秘而令人痛心的葛德文十分遗憾和喜爱,所以想教大家如何自己画出自己喜欢的角色。
因为剧情的设置,葛德文王子像一片王权破碎后飘散在地的金色叶子,铺陈了如今这个混沌的世界。
他的具体的模样,在游戏设定、CG画面与游戏本体中都欲盖弥彰。但我们依稀能看到一个金色头发,高大帅气的青年男性的构想,于是我画了这幅图,设定在葛弗雷已被流放,王子赢得与龙族的战斗后凯旋。
虽然称之为王子,他看起来并不瘦弱青涩,反而像个将军。
配乐使用了德国浪漫主义作曲家勃拉姆斯的《F大调第三交响曲》中的第三乐章
勃拉姆斯当时“倚着威斯巴登的夏季,窗外可看到莱茵河与周围荡漾着黑森林的清新”
当时的乐评人与指挥都把这部作品成为“英雄交响曲”他们描述为:意志坚强,富有意思,梦想孤独,寂寞追求等。并随之展现他的创作特点:粗狂旋律,强有力节奏,柔和的乐队色彩等。
在我的想象中,葛德文或许犹如此曲。
