An Art Tribute to Golden Axe!
Whenever i write an article / blog about a fan art i try to find a balance between writing something for a popular game or game character and also something for almost forgotten games which are rarely receiving any fan art. Golden Axe is such a game. I myself remember it well from the early nineties on the Megadrive but i bet the most of you readers never played this old beat’em up. Daniel Vendrell Oduber, a professional artist from Spain is a big Sega fan and created this Golden Axe illustration, starring the three protagonists Ax Battler, Tyris Flare and Gilius Thunderhead and the main villain of the series, Death Adder. I guess its noteable that he drew Ax Battler very similar to Arnold Schwarzenegger as Conan the Barbar. A movie which was once an inspiration for the designs of Golden Axe. |
Golden Axe is also one of the around 15 beat’em ups we included in our art tribute about this game genre earlier in 2013, you can read a lot about it and also see another illustration of the game if you click on the logo of our beat’em up tribute 🙂
