Description Closer, one of the common monsters from Silent Hill 3. This is a reproduction of the original game artwork made by Masahiro Ito.
Originally started for a SH meme in september, but I'm too lazy to finish it. So I just completed this drawing.

PS : have you noticed the chinese letters on his arms ? I didn't know until I started to draw him.

January 2010

It's more the Siam who looks like the Closer in fact.

these are one of my favorite monsters and yes i have noticed the markings but i have no idea why them have them :I
what came to the biggest shock to me not too long ago was this:

Me- "man i love the closers! they are badass! If I was a monster I'd be trying to hook up with one XD *in joking tone for they are again one of my favs*
Friend- "you do know that they're female monsters right?"
Me- "wha-? no way!" *looks it up* "WTF! THEY ARE D:"

Haha, but are you sure they are really females? Sure they have skinny curved legs like women, but that's all I think. Because they have a vagina on their face?

I love it.... The Angle, the Colors, nothing is Hate-able about this Picture.

Silent-Neutral [2010-05-07 03:59:35 +0000 UTC]

Pretty awesome the colours and depth of the pose is what brings this piece to life

btw, I don't think the characters are supposed to be chinese if anything, it'd be japanese...considering Silent Hill is a japanese made game :/ But the character would mean different things in both countries
But aside from that, it's interesting that it's even there

Thank you
I wrote "chinese" because they originally come from China to Japan, but sure I guess it's Japanese. The only problem is that there are errors on it. Masahiro Ito had intentionally made a mistake, but impossible to tell why ^^

Oh, Im sorry, I thought mandarin was the name for the things that hang in the room the little girl locks you in. Now that i check back, its not. ^_^;;

ThoRCX In reply to JessiDesu [2010-03-31 03:38:57 +0000 UTC]

These are Flesh Lips. Mandarins look very similar to Closers except they are hanging under the ground.

Fantastic work! Particularly nice work on the Closer's skin tones, it looks just as creepy as it was intended to be!

The only negative is that those kanji aren't correct Granted the original picture's kanji were really blurry, so it's understandable

ThoRCX In reply to khajiitmoonsugar [2010-01-15 10:29:55 +0000 UTC]

Thanks.
The kanji are really uncorrect on the originally artwork : [link]
I don't know why, but Masahiro Ito likes to put these wrong kanjis in his works, like some fake kanjis written by occidental people : [link] (one of his personal works). I thought it was interesting so I keep them wrong ^^

Oh I see, that is a fair explanation Well, like I said before, you did a great job and I hope to see more soon!

Hmm would you consider doing a mumbler [link] ? For some reason they're my "favourite" monster

Merci. Pour SH2, tu risques de pas le trouver neuf. Ca se trouve facilement en occasion par contre, sur des sites de revente. Sinon il y a eu le Silent Hill Collection pack, avec le 2, 3 et 4 pour le prix d'un jeu sur PS2, ça doit déjà se trouver plus facilement.

Non mais sérieux, c'est très très bien fait!

Il faut trouver quelqu'un pour traduire les caractères chinois! D: Je veux savoir! (C'est ptêt la signature de l'artiste, non?)

ThoRCX In reply to ZeTrystan [2010-01-13 02:16:41 +0000 UTC]

Merci.
Je sais lire ce qu'il a marqué, et en fait ça veut rien dire. Ce qui est étonnant c'est qu'Ito, lui-même japonais, a mis ses lettres qui sont erronés un peu comme si ça a été écrit par un étranger qui s'y connait rien. Il l'a déjà fait aussi dans ses travaux personnels. C'est ça que j'apprécie chez lui, cette liberté artistique qui va chercher à dessiner des lettres chinoises erronées sur un monstre de Silent Hill ^^

ZeTrystan In reply to ThoRCX [2010-01-13 02:50:05 +0000 UTC]

xD Oui mais bon, liberté artistique... quoique, c'est un peu comme nous, quand on griffonne des similies lettres sur un dessin. Le genre de grobouilli étrange.

Genre. :/

J'aurais bien aimé qu'il y ai un message caché, style «Heather, t'es enceinte!». x)

Have you used a texture from the game to do those red letters in his arm?

Merci. Bon après, c'est celles de l'artwork original plus ou moins Mais c'est marrant de travailler la texture pour un monstre aussi crasseux que ceux de SH.
