Sorry if it might offend smbdy. After playing "Hades" alot I've just saw dat video about dat Russian painter and I really thought it might have some connections with "Hades" style or smthn.

Mikhail Vrubel. Ofc he was very talanted and crasy..

I'm going to take a wild guess and say Hades is inspired by Greek mythology. As is this painter.

[Uli Minati]

Hades art is inspired by Greek myth
Mikhail Vrubel is inspired by Greek myth, maybe
Hades art looks nothing like Mikhail Vrubel though. Imo.

[Ascate]

You know there are literally tens of thousands novels, paintings, sculptures, statues, poems and other artworks inspired by Greek mythology?
It is like saying Hades is inspired by 1998 TV series Hercules: The Legendary Journeys

OK. Tho, thx, young men. But what I was meant to tell. One hundred years ago there was no visual inspiration of greek myths at all. Some ppl just invent it. U get waht I meeen?..

What? Greek myths are thousands of years old, and there are plenty of sculptures/paintings/etc. from that period, let alone others ones in the time between then and now. What on earth are you talking about?

You're pretty correct, actually.

Chances are the art department has someone in it who studied Art formally (and history of art) and have taken inspiration from prior artists.

Oh nice nice. So show me some pieces of art that are thousand years old and have solid visual style. Cause I can't understand how, for example, Venus of Milos could inspire "Hades".

I could only call dat one style totaly greek and totaly solid. But it's too much basic imo.
