The left one looks like Jason Statham
It should, it looks like it was referenced from a specific photo of Jason Statham. I know this because I have that photo for...research purposes. A little too rugged for Dante, methinks. Although Statham does look good with hair on his head for once.
Anyway, the far right drawing is frigging amazing. Get rid of the weird sash and loincloth and it would have been perfect, a unique take, but still the familiar badass in red. Man, we could have had it all, Capcom and NT. We could have had it aaallll.
To be fair, that Dante wouldn't have fit at all with the story NT eventually came up with. This guy looks like a competent freedom fighter with a cause, to me, instead of an aimless punk newly recruited by freedom fighters. That would have been an interesting take, but not good for an origin story, if the main character is already settled into who he is and what he's fighting for.
Anyway, I'm sad now.
