You know, most of the backstory paintings are actually very stylized versions of their past. Nothing is as it seems and to me it really looks like an artist is telling the story (Kat). Think about it, the only characters that are shown in vivid detail is Dante, Vergil and Mundus. Who knows how Eva and Sparda actually looked like. So the only BIG details we have of that is that one's an angel and the other a demon. So that's given extreme emphasis.

I think we can expect something similar but completely off (no halo, no wings/no horns, no tail for example) once we see Dante's memory (the one we see at the end of his blue rose thing).

There's a lot of that sort of... Renaissance style artwork to them, with stuff like cherubs floating around. Like the painting of when Dante was holding Eva, or Mundus was killing Eva, there were cherubs all around them, giving more emotion to the painting. Even Mundus seemed rather stylized with an open shirt, like toga or something that you see in a lot of religious paintings. Either that...or he was trying to sex up Eva at the time >.>

Mundus always has a half open shirt. Sparda was pretty much naked too, according to the piece.
You guys need to drop the whole rape shtick.
 
He always had the open shirt...? From the painting of him attack Eva, he looked like he was wearing just a white shirt (without his suit jacket) that was all unbuttoned or something, similar to painting styles in the Renaissance.
 
Hrm :/ Somehow in the painting it looked different to me >.< Like... it was flowing openly, or something :x
 
It started to bother me that the story of Sparda seemscfar different than the original. Sparsa was this ultimate bad ass that everyone was afraid of. He kicked ass, took names and chewed bublegum. This story, on the other hand, is giving me the impression that he was just some shmuck, not really the stuff of legends, whose only merit was his relation to Mundus.
 
He was his most trusted lieutenant for a reason though, and Mundus was only able to come to power because of Sparda's help.

And think about it, the ultimate soldier turned into a family man. There were probably a few ways Mundus could have gotten the best of him, especially by going through Sparda's family, which he sorta did. Even more so if like in the classics, Sparda gave up much of his power when he left the demonic forces to be with Eva.
 
We don't know jack about Sparda's life in the other games, so of course he doesn't seem so badass anymore. The mystery is pretty much gone.

I actually discussed this a long time ago. When you actually make the legend true, that air of greatness and epic proportion is watered down.
