MyShadow Of The Colossus Series has been harvested since 2011 by Flickr and Tumblr and Wikia users, often without any credit to my work (the same for my FFX series)
That said, I’m working on some new stuff since the last weekend. I took some already known pictures giving them a new cut, and some old, unused pictures now presented under a new light. At present, only the first two Colossi were “remastered” in 16:9, 21:9, 2:3 and 3:4 ratio, little by little also the other Colossi will be posted. Take a lookand this time please credit the source if you’re going to use it for your own, rightful purpose, thanks!

Ever since seeing space on the syllabus as a design element I immediately thought of the cover art for both Shadow of the Colossus and Ico. Both covers use scale to develope space in their respective scenes. SotC has a smaller character a little bit in front of a large dark giant figure, which in turn is in front of an even larger castle.
Ico does the same thing with buildings and shadow. the repetition of the light and shadow across the arches opens up the space, instead of it being solid the pattern is then connected/ continued with the building in the back, while the focal characters are put in the middle of the space to be focused on.
P.S. The Ico eu/jp cover art is a homage to Nostalgia of the Infinite by Giorgio de Chirico

I can’t remember a videogame able to move me like “The Last guardian” did. Thank you Fumito Ueda for this unbelievable experience.
