The background of Raphael's illustration shows the Sword and Lion, the emblem of Sorel family, and you may have noticed that a single rose is nestled in the center of the sword. You already know what this pretty flower symbolizes, don't you?#SOULCALIBUR pic.twitter.com/csGKt6d7X5

(2/2) In the rough draft, We used the costume from SC2 as a base, and while incorporating elements from previous titles, we tried to create a design that was both swordsman and noble. We also considered various shapes of glasses to express his refracted personality.#SOULCALIBUR https://t.co/QjAilaxiFR pic.twitter.com/t0619dA6Uv

ラファエルの「ヌーヴェル・ソレイユ」の元ネタ。ライターとして関わったので、思い入れがあるんですよね…（笑）

This is base idea for Raphael's Nouveau Soleil.
I was involved in this book as one of the writers, so I have a lot of feelings about it. lol#ソウルキャリバー #SOULCALIBUR pic.twitter.com/4Zc6Hi6x5b
意外にも彼はSC2の主人公なのですよね。実際、才能と狂気いずれも抜きん出た人物です。邪剣の器となり得るほどに。

Surprisingly, he's the protagonist of SC2. He is so outstanding in both talent and madness that worthy of being a vessel for the Evil Sword.#ソウルキャリバー #SOULCALIBUR https://t.co/9d1H3m18X1 pic.twitter.com/H7aDea7x8K

イラストとゲームグラフィックでデザインが違う場合は好みの方を描いたり混ぜたりしています pic.twitter.com/X4sDlTR7oq
この顔の角度だと仮面の模様が見えないので加筆しました。
