Description Simon Belmont (Castlevania Judgment design)

Judgment isn't a very fondly remembered entry in the series, but I liked some of Takeshi Obata's designs in it quite a bit. I'll probably draw more of these in the future.

My favorite version of Simon, alongside Castlevania Chronicles! Redhead Simon is the best!!

Oooh this is fantastic!! Reminds me very much of Ayami Kojima's black & white art for castlevania, which is so fitting...!Ā

I'd like to try drawing at least Judgment-style Maria and Alucard, hope I can get around to those two eventually.

Pity there's no Judgment Richter to complete the Dracula X trio.

Yeah odd that they didn't include Richter, but instead a teenage Maria. Now that I think about it, there are only two Belmonts in the game too?

Yeah just Simon and Trevor, maybe they thought more would be too unbalanced roster wise?Ā  The game did have a decent roster all told and it was fun for what it was, just not really anything you would want to pour hours into mastering.

I thought it was really cool they put Cornell, in there, easily my favourite non canon Castlevania character, he was a blast to play as well. i was also glad they put in a Lecarde with the Alucard Spear, even though they're a family handpicked by Alucard to fight Dracula if there aren't any Belmonts around, there's only one, maybe two in the whole series.

Yeah true, it's nice to have Eric there too. I've been playing Judgment a bit lately and you know, it isn't all that bad as people say it is. For an arena fighter it's got a fair amount of moves and cancels to play around with. But I guess the genre in itself wasn't something the fans really wanted.

It's quite a bit of fun for what it is.Ā  It may have fared better if it weren't a Wii exclusive but who knows, people weren't necessarily clamoring for an all star Castlevania fighting game to begin with.

The Wii's motion conttols definitely hurt it's rep. I think most people defaulted to that instead of trying out the standard controller option. While the game plays much better on a pad, some of those awkward button combinations from the wiimote carry over to it, like having to hold a shoulder button to change your normal attack input to specials or guard breakers instead of having their own dedicated buttons.

I used the standard controller when I played it.Ā  I can't really remember how it controlled though, that was years ago xDĀ Ā

I don't personally care about Simon's design in the game, but you made it look awesome. Also I love the background.

Thank you! ^^

Yeah, Judgment's designs in general aren't very "Castlevania" and Ayami Kojima's originals are infinitely better, but lately I've come to appreciate them more. I like the different interpretations and it's fun to look at Obata's illustrations of them

Though I do like some of them, Cornell for example is excellent, and so is Shanoa (I like it as much as her original). And I kinda like Eric's design, even though the decision to make him a kid is still ??? for me. Aaaaand I guess both Trevor's and Carmilla's are kinda guilty pleasures for me :'DD

Yeah true, Cornell looks much better than his N64 counterpart And yeah, I like Shanoa's, Trevor's and Carmilla's looks too! And I gotta admit also Maria, even though she's a pretty basic anime girl in the game. Imo the weirdest one is probably Grant, looks nothing like a pirate thief he's supposed to be :'D but if taken out of context, I don't think his design is too bad either.

Grant offers bring mistake as pirate even he's not one.

Agreed, Grant looks very weird but out of context the design is kinda cool.
