Because vast majority of Dracula depictions are based on Pop-Cultural Osmosis of Bela Lugosi's depiction since then rather than how he's actually depicted in the book which is the one thing everyone has forgotten about despite his popularity that is.

I really do love this one. By far it's my favorite drawing of Dracula that I've ever seen.Β
I know I've seen the No Twilight compliment handed out a lot but what I really love about this guy is the forced smile he's got going on there. He's not really smilling; he's about two seconds away from flying into blind psychotic blood greed.Β
I mean really, he looks someone who's trying to sell an image of aristocratic nobility. The reality is much worse. He's a sentient version of Jaws, capable of lying, seducing and making deals.Β

It looks you combined elements of the original description of Dracula from the book and the famous portrait ofΒ Β Vlad the Impaler, and make for a completely unique and amazing look for one literature's most famous monsters. Well done.

Granted it may not be a accurate depiction in your opinion but it's what I consider the closest depiction.

Sunny: This has gotta be the most accurate depiction of Stoker's Dracula we've found on dA!
Eile: Though the ears seem a bit big.

What they said, and more! Not only do you have Stoker's description down to the smallest fang, but you've even given Drac a resemblence to the famous portrait of the historical Vlad Dracula, the Impaler Voivode of Wallachia!

I have a favor to ask of you...I want an avatar, and a close-up of your Dracula's facve would be ideal, but a)I need your blessing, and b)I need someone to tell me how to get it to fit! I cropped three other photos and the stupid DA Avatar program-thingie rejected them all as wrong size!

Do you know how big the avatar size limit is supposed to be for deviant art? I can make one for you if you find out!

It keeps saying 50 x 50, does that sound right?
π: 0 β©: 1
yes it does. Just drac's head? or face?
whats your email address so I can mail to you.

P.S. Could you please hide my message with my email address on it? I just realized that it might make for trouble!

Your choice-whatever looks best, I trust your judgment.

Got it! Thanks, they all look great--I'll use them all in turn, I expect!

π: 0 β©: 1
None! It worked perfectly...now I'll proabably switch 'em back and forth every few days, ha-ha! Arigato once again!

I know I've mentioned my book to you already, but I thought I'd tell you that I've just announced it in my Journal entry! I'm already getting replies, it's quite exciting!
