Time for another bit of gaming fan art, this one with an interesting (thought typical) perspective.
From the fairly recent 'Assassin's Creed: Revelations' comes this sketch of one of the myriad of multiplayer characters: the fortune-teller/thief Mirela Djuric, known as the Trickster within the multiplayer part of the game. I felt like illustrating one of this tricky femme fatale's 'kill animations'.
Quoting from one of the Wikis on the series here:
"The Trickster grabs her seated target's foot and drags them off the bench, until their head rests against it. Before her victim can do anything to defend themselves, the Trickster forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking her target's neck on the bench behind them."
In this case, well, YOU are the victim. Literally, this is a first person view of the target and what they last see before...well, Mirela gives them a look at their (immediate) future (which...some of you might or might not like 😉 ). As the victim (probably supposed to be the Sentinel based on the boot/pant leg in the foreground) has just cracked his head upon the bench, everything is blurry except for the Trickster herself as she lefts her leg...about to imminently plant that final kick on the fallen target...
Again, expected perspective in this sort of view, eh? The background is sparse and deliberately 'light' due to, well, I did just say you're probably in a daze from knocking your head like that...or the incoming beautiful DEATH. 🙂
