Yes it's exactly that picture! But I used to have a proper digitally rendered picture, not a photo of a picture. But thanks anyway!Miss-Cerasus wrote:If I remember correctly, the picture you are talking about is only in the special edition of "The history of Rayman" book.
A friend of mine did a photo of it.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
I did a very unexpected finding when I visited a Retro Gaming shop in Marseille a few days ago. By my surprise it is framed a group of Rayman images in the style of different famous painters. Some are already known but others it is the very first time I see like Impressionist Rayman (Claude Monet) and Neoplasticist Rayman (Piet Mondrian). Here's the photo I took.

Sadly I could not ask anything to the shop owner as he was pretty busy attending costumers.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
That's pretty awesome!
That one on the bottom left is really bizzare but cool. I really like the top right one though as it has sort of a marvel comic book style to it in a sense.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
The top-right one is pretty fucking weird
(maybe it's because it's low res but i can't exactly understand what's going on)
Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
Excellent discovery.

Awesome! Was it for sale?Haruka wrote:I did a very unexpected finding when I visited a Retro Gaming shop in Marseille a few days ago.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
I doubt it was for sale but what I intended to ask to the owner was where did he get it.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
I don't. If feminists started focusing on actual equality more than on nymphs with big boobs then maybe we'd make some progress.Acarr wrote:I understand how some people might find the Nymphs design in the games sexist as they are sexualised and they're in cages and need to be rescued...

Fucking agreed. Not much more to say on that though. (Don't want to go off on a whole topic for that)Hunchman801 wrote:I don't.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
These are on the Raywiki already, they are Rayman 2 related.
I see one of Giuseppe Arcimboldo, another one of Pablo Picasso and one of Botticelli.
EDIT :
Oh, and and Warhol on the right.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
top right seems to be based on Roy Lichtenstein's work.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
They're all based on famous paintings, I thought that was pretty obvious...
It's based on The Kiss by Gustav KlimtEren wrote:The top-right one is pretty fucking weird(maybe it's because it's low res but i can't exactly understand what's going on)

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
well yeah but no one pointed out where that one in particular was based on so I figured I'd clear that up.Acarr wrote:They're all based on famous paintings, I thought that was pretty obvious...

I meant that I can understand how some people could be offended by their design. I think those who get offended by them though are being far too sensitive especially considering there are far worse things to be offended by.Hunchman801 wrote:I don't.

And I'm sure feminists do focus on actual equality

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
Not even by close. I am sure the top-right painting is not Pop-Art at all. Now Andy Warhol is other story as it appears in the bottom line.ikke471 wrote:top right seems to be based on Roy Lichtenstein's work.
I do believe I've seen the original motif of the top-right corner representation but I am not reminding of the artist.

Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
uh. it's definitely based off of Roy's work just compare the white buildings in the background they're almost identical!Haruka wrote:Not even by close.

The talibans would probably find that offensive, yeah.Acarr wrote:I meant that I can understand how some people could be offended by their design. I think those who get offended by them though are being far too sensitive especially considering there are far worse things to be offended by.
Maybe some do, unfortunately every time I hear about them they're complaining about mannequins and ads not representing fat women or the presence of hot chicks in videogames. But yeah, let's not digress too much on this topic.Acarr wrote:And I'm sure feminists do focus on actual equality(I'm gonna leave it at that, I don't wanna touch feminism with a bargepole on the internet)
Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
True feminist is not a bad person and is actually really positive because she is fighting to stop abuse of women and for their human rights. Unfortunately, many self-proclaimed feminists like Anita Sarkeesian ruined meaning of word due to constant complainings about most trivial things that exist. I mean, do we really need to bring gender equality and how women are portrayed in something like video games? If somebody is offended by video game, there is a very simple solution - don't buy the game. There are far more bigger problems in this world than how some video game looks like.
Re: Rare Rayman Pictures
I have awesome jokes about feminism, they of course don't represent my opinion about feminism, but since they may sound extremely offensive for some, I will leave that comment as a private joke to the persons who already saw them.OCG wrote:True feminist is not a bad person and is actually really positive because she is fighting to stop abuse of women and for their human rights.

Just saying, most of the gamers are lifeless-virgins-nerds who never kissed a single girl in their lives, hot chicks in game are more profit-making/attractive (strike the desired term), since their audience share the same fantasy : boobs.Hunchman801 wrote: the presence of hot chicks in videogames.
Don't believe me check Pornhub status when Fallout 4 came out.
