"A hunter must hunt"

This stellar piece was commissioned by me and drawn by the amazingly talented

Since starting my playthrough of Bloodborne awhile back, I've been wanting to get a piece done of Jessie as a hunter in the setting of Yharnam. With Scarlett's help this is now a reality and I simply love it!

While this isn't exactly the canon outfit my hunter wore in the game (I had her wear the black church skirt w/ heeled boots), I felt this was good for what I wanted to do. I wanted Jessie to look like a legit hunter. His choice of weapons is also not 100% (I used the Great Sword and Scythe, when I got it, a lot), but I got a lot of use with the Rakuyo (the sword in his right hand) and I always had the Bow Blade on standby in his other hand and the Hunter Blunderbuss for ripostes.

What's really important to note though is that I asked Scarlett to draw the background themselves for this piece. Normally, I'd ask for a simple background with fairly easy objects and surfaces to draw or I'd ask them to use a stock background. I really wanted to see how they would do with the daunting task of capturing the essence, majesty, and horror of Yharnam. I'm super happy with they job they did. The lighting and shadows are awesome and the lamp in the foreground and the stalking shadow in the background really capture the experience of Bloodborne I feel. This is easily one of my all time favorite works I've commissioned.

Thank you a million times over for taking on this challenge and for putting all of yourself into it. It is truly an honor to receive work like this from you. ^_^
