Description Diablo from Atari Games' Primal Rage fighting game. I always thought it would be appropriate if Diablo was a carnotaurus, in this case, with more exaggerated horns and non-wimpy arms (although they're still kinda small I guess).
One of the things I like about redesigning the Primal Rage cast is that I can try to make the palette swap characters more distinct from each other.

The line art can be seen in my Sketchblog .

Reminds me of the Carnotaurs from Dinosaur. I nickname it Diablosaurus Rex.

I personally would have made Diablo into a Spinosaurus or Suchomimus and Chaos into more of a Troll or Ogre like creature.

Diablo was my go-to man for kicking ass on the SNES. Nice to see him done justice. Love especially the lighting from the maw.

Diablo and Sauron were my two favorite monsters from that game, T-Rex monsters for the win! Granted, ya changed him to a Carnotaurus type creature here, but he still looks cool, nice touch with the horns. Fire breathing dinos kick ass >:3

Your carnotaurus desing reminds me of the Carnotaurus from DINOSAUR at Disney's Animal Kingdom.

Im with you! Diablo fit more with a carnotaurus instead a tyrannosaurus. I hope to see a primal rage in the next gen. You have plans to make necrosan and the slashfang?

PioPauloSantana In reply to malevouvenator [2011-12-19 23:09:32 +0000 UTC]

Me too! No plans for Necrosan and Slashfang at the moment, probably sometime in the future though.

Maybe you can major in video game design and try it out.

NeonBlobfish [2011-12-18 06:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Great minds think alike, I see. I too saw Diablo as a Carnotaurus. Maybe you can work at Netherrealms Studios. They own the franchise now, along with everything else owned by Atari and Midway, so hopefully, your designs can make you a profit. Also, why does his back looked so hunched? He resembles a Spinosaurus a bit because of it.

PioPauloSantana In reply to NeonBlobfish [2011-12-18 07:38:23 +0000 UTC]

They should totally re-make this game. You're right, he does have some major hunch-age going on there, makes hims Spinosaurus-like.

NeonBlobfish In reply to PioPauloSantana [2011-12-30 02:56:38 +0000 UTC]

You know what would be cool? A giant enemy crab. That should be in the remake. Their should also be real-time weapon change.

Seriously speaking, though, a giant enemy crab would be awesome.

this is how Diablo should have appeared, instead of being a pallete swap from Sauron >: (

DangerMD In reply to PioPauloSantana [2011-12-18 15:46:51 +0000 UTC]

well, in that era, was very normal to see pallete swaps... specially on games with digitalized graphics, but i was really angry about this guy because Primal Rage already has few characters for the time (7? and no final boss? damn)
