The Vampire Rahab Update

Finished the skin details of Rahab in his evolved vampire form, as he was seen in the Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver intro. With the same basic attire as Raziel, I really only need to do his cape with his clan symbol on it. Working on these vampires when I can get a chance. Instead of the overall wash of tiled scales on his face from the original SR1 intro model, I looked at elements of bony predator fish which might be incorporated. The way the facial bones press just under the skin on dried, dead piranha, and other fish like goliath tigerfish, and even a labeled vampire fish. For the scales, and patterns on his back, I looked at species of armored catfish. Eventually, these patters will become more heightened in his monstrous devolved form, if ever I get to that. But here they are just starting to form.
