What if the sun doesn’t actually hurt vampires?

Vampires are just nocturnal, the same way we are diurnal. A vampire could go out during the day, but they would just rather be sleeping.

Vampires are just afraid of the light, the same way we are afraid of the dark. Their eyes are meant to see in the dark, so they just can’t see very well in the light. It hurts their eyes and they can’t see what’s around them, so it’s just scary.

Some vampire was probably too afraid to admit that he was afraid of the light, so he made up a fake allergy to the sun. Word got out to mortals, so we just assumed that all vampires are allergic to the sun. You know how mortals like to stereotype and whatnot.

But imagine pop, sunny vampires that are the vampire version of goth, dark humans. They like to go out in the sun and wear bright clothes, and the other vampires think it’s metal as fuck. “Oh, you know Victoria Anne III? Yeah she’s totally pop. Her friends call her Susan.”

I fucking love this

MGS PW artbook: Shinkawa notes on Kazuhira Miller

Please note that I’m ESL and I’m still learning Japanese. Translations may not be100% accurate but I’m trying my best.

Kaz character page 1:

“Kaz is the future Master Miller who is introduced at first. If we talk about Master Miller, it comes to my mind the image of him during the MGS radio comms, it’s a strong image, isn’t it? I designed him based on his well-known look: hair swept back and all-black sunglasses. Although, his personality is quite playful/mischievous. He has drooping eyes when he takes his sunglasses off, which makes him kind of cute? I wanted to include that kind of image.”

Kaz character page 2:
Shinkawa: “There was already a model (for Kaz), it was easy to draw since I didn’t have a blurry image of him.” (I think he refers it was easy to imagine this version of kaz since the mgs1 version already existed.)

“I got the idea of including the color yellow somewhere in the support characters of MGS PW, and just when I was drawing Kaz I thought I could use a yellow neckerchief.”

Kaz character page 3:
Shinkawa · These rough sketches show the character’s expressions on various settings. What kind of expression does he make in certain situation? I imagined them and drew them.
These drawings are a part of all the rough sketches I drew in order to solidify the image of Kaz.

Kaz character page 4:
This was drawn by Uchiyama based on the established drawing’s model. Since I drew the illustration with fude (writing brush), it may end up being vague/ambiguous when modelling it, but when I passed my drawing to her, she arranged the lines. That way, we kept a fluid work.

Note that Shinkawa is talking about Chihoko Uchiyama.

Concept artist who worked as a character designer since MGS3 alongside Shinkawa. Her work consistes primarily of adapting Shinkawa’s designs into model sheets for 3d graphic designers.
