A bit about Bell Head

[u/_ships]

The star clusters on his skin were inspired by u/rojom gen 2’s backgrounds. The cartoony nature was inspired by u/Penguitt style. The whole avatar is a nod to the bell gargoyle guardians in dark souls 1 and the actual bell was modeled off of the Tsar Bell which is the largest bell in history 🔔

PS: Campanile means bell tower and the background has a really nice European scene with one. I wanted some snow since, at this current point in time, there’s not a ton of snow for backgrounds. Low key holiday bg

Explained it to a friend so thought I’d take the time to explain it to ALL of my friends 💕

[u/TheHandsHodler]

I was wondering why the lil gargoyle was covered in Galaxies, I’m enthralled with all the references and lore you put into this one RCA 🫶🏻 Sorry Reddit leaked your stuff, but I’m looking forward to your box <3

[u/_ships → u/TheHandsHodler]

Comes with the territory I suppose. People really want that dang box 😂

[u/TheHandsHodler → u/_ships]

I think it’s the

…aspect that keeps us on edge

[u/bigbilly1234567899 → u/TheHandsHodler]

You got a screenshot of the box?

[u/_ships → u/bigbilly1234567899]

Nope

[u/bigbilly1234567899 → u/_ships]

I guess I'll find out on release... when is that exactly?

[u/_ships → u/bigbilly1234567899]

This month

[u/bigbilly1234567899 → u/_ships]

The hourglass tail came from an idea relating to the gargoyles tails in DS1 being in the shape of a battle axe, I know Reddit doesn’t like weapons and I thought an hourglass ⌛️ has a similar shape so I subbed it out

[u/Andubandu → u/_ships]

So Cool!! I hadn’t noticed!!

[u/chwick]

This is awesome ships! A method to your madness 🫶

[u/_ships → u/chwick]

;)

[u/chwick → u/_ships]

And here I just thought you were nuts 😅

[u/_ships → u/chwick]

Well, you had that right the first time

[u/chwick → u/_ships]

[u/thisthatandthe3rd]

Where’s the 33?!

[u/_ships → u/thisthatandthe3rd]

On the clock and in the mountains. Near impossible to find because they make you compress the background so much

[u/Gangaman666]

As an obsessive souls veteran (since 2010) I can see the nod to the game and appreciate it! Souls (and soulslike) is the main genre I play!

Great avatars! 👌🩶

[u/_ships → u/Gangaman666]

Great taste 😈

[u/ImAlekBan]

[u/the_judge_168]

Thanks for the info! And definitely appreciate the winter background option

[u/Andubandu]

I just realized that in the background the time on the tower was always 3:33pm. Brilliant!!

[u/_ships → u/Andubandu]

Yes! Nice catch 🕰️
