Sculpting Raziel - Soul Reaver, Legacy of Kain (UV Special) - Timelapse Sculpt and Airbrush Demo 

It's warming my heart to see people still remembering this legendary series, especially such talented people. Raziel has been my favourite game character for decades now, and this bust is marvelous, straight up marvelous. I love the idea of his duality with normal and utlra-violet lighting. Bless your soul, LoreCraft, so it doesn't get caught by The Elder God.

Even Raziel is astonished, just look at his jaw drop!

"The descent had destroyed me...and yet I lived."

Those who did not play Soul Reaver would never know how much we love Raziel. Well done, LoreCraft, and thank you.

This popped in my feed after YEARS of searching for this channel! I’m still in awe of your craftsmanship!❤

"I tried to capture this caracter with the paintjob as best as I could". Man, that decision of using luminiscent paint was genius! He's a wraith and boy that was smart, turn the black light on and the wraith comes out! Thank you for this.

The descent had destroy me... and yet my hair looks incredible

Agreed more Legacy of Kain games should be done to the same quality of the old, with huge focus on story telling and the characters.

Man, thank you for this amazing sculpture! 🙏🏼❤️ It’s good to know that there’s still fans of “The Legacy of Kain” saga, because “as long as a single one of us stands, we are legion!”

Raziel: "I AM DESTROYED!" Elder God: "YOU ARE REBORN!"

This is probably one of the only times that I've been excited about some random recommendation from RU-vid. Cheers, this is amazing!

This is amazing. Yes there is still some Legacy of Kain fans out there. If any series deserves a remake it's LoK. The closest thing we got to a new game was Nosgoth and that got shut down before it could even find a player base.

As a gigantic fan of the series and Raziel being my favorite character of all time: this is the greatest sculpt of him I’ve ever seen. You definitely managed to capture every detail of him and I’m in love with this!! I’m shocked this doesn’t have more views because I would LOVE to see your sculpt of Kain!!

It's my favorite series of all time. Since I was eleven years old. Dude, you just made me drop a tear. You're extremely talented!

Just look at the amazing detail that went into his face, just to cover it. Insane stuff. Pity you couldn’t reach the 500k. Us fans are still out there, that’s for sure.

Please make Kain!!! You did a fantastic job on Raziel! I’m a huge fan of the Legacy Of Kain series, and I personally think they were probably the best video games ever made.

Please, do Kain,

Raziel: "You're a righteous, fiend, aren't you?" Raziel (also): "Apparently, I am." Always loved those lines.

Time traveling vampire, soul sucking wraiths, and an elder god what insanity this series was

My husband's nickname is Raziel after this character =) I'm currently drawing the character for him and your video was very helpful to understand the character more ! I feel my drawing is ugly now though xP Your using of UV colors is genius =)

Love the game and you bought him to life! Someone needs to hire you for movie work asap....come on weta ship him onboard!!!!!

I played this game on dreamcast. Legacy of Kain: Soulreaver was one of the best games I have ever played. Great story line!

"An eternity passed and my torment receded, bringing me back from the precipice of madness.The descent had destroyed me and yet.....I lived"

I've loved this series for more than twenty years. If anything is deserving of atleast an HD remake it's this series. Your work is awesome. Nice to know I'm not the only fan with fond memories of Nosgoth.

I actually cried at the sight of the finished product 😢 Raziel is by far one of my favorite characters in the history of my gaming journey. The LoK series as a whole meant so much to me (still holds a place in my heart)….. U are a genius in ur field, Sir…. It was my pleasure viewing this - thank you for sharing 💯🙏🏾☺️👏🏾👏🏾

They need to revive that game with the newer tech that bust just brought the love of the game back thank you matey beautiful work.

LoreCraft, You are Worthy!

Im such a LoK nerd i memorized the opening monologue of Raziel

If you can't tell, I'm a HUGE LoK fan... and you have done a major justice to Raziel. Props to you, sir.

Love this! Make a Raziel before he got thrown into the abyss! Would love to see that!

holy shit man...you just brought back some memories, you hit Raziel on the nose , good job , bravo.....do kain next please

That soundtrack always sends chills down my spine. Man that is good stuff.

"Do you not feel with all your soul how we have become like gods? As such, are we not indivisible? As long as a single one of us stands, we are legion"

I cherished this game on the PS1 and to this day it remains one of my fave games ever. You recreated Raziel beautifully

"tumbling... burning with white - hot fire ....i plunged into the depths of the abyss.... unspeakable pain, relentless agony...time ceased to exist..."

Yes! Yes! Yes!!! Thank you! It is awsome! Love it a lot! It's just a very and very good job! And I love this game (gameplay, story, atmosphere, voices, music, characters, locations)!!! Everything is just great! And you sculpture is VERY GOOD!!!

I've been a really big fan of this game for years and you my friend did an amazing job with this sculpture of Raziel 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍

It's time I sell this sculpture of Raziel. He is one of a kind, 1 of 1. I am needing to clear out my older air dry clay sculptures, so please email me at n.brown@lore-craft.com with fair offers. He's fragile and needs shipping insurance. Hope someone out there wants him and will give him a good home - N Update: The one and only original sculpture of this character, shown in the video, sold after 2 years of sitting in the garage. Oddly enough, I've received several requests for him since, and I am puzzled as to why they all came at the same time, but I had nothing for 2 years.... If enough people are keen to own one, I am capable of making a new, improved version of this character in platinum silicone, but it would be vastly more expensive and a difficult project - hard to justify doing again unless I had several people on board to buy one. If anyone is that serious about it, please email me and I can compile a list, and you can essentially crowd fund a recreation of this character in platsil gel 10, and the UV effect intact (with better hair this time too). There's also a Kain crowd funding pool on my website if anyone wants to get in on that (I bought his eyes, but you fellas need to chip in for the rest). Cheers guys, and thanks for all the recent interest in this video.

I'm a huge LOK fan, just played the whole series through again from beginning to end. Petty amazed that this showed up in my recommended tbh. Amazing job on the Raziel, this is incredible!

Man! You have no idea how much this made my day! Scrolling through construction videos and stumbled upon this! I am HUGE Soul Reaver fan and still play it every year or so. You are gifted and glad I came across you’re channel! Outstanding work on raziel and love how he looks different like in the spectral realm. Keep it up!

I found the details for Crystal Dynamics contact info. You guys can send them a message, ask them to make more LoK games! And please feel free to link them my video too! Would love it if they put it up on their twitter feed. Here's the contact link: crystald.com// - the bottom right has "contact us". If you want more LoK games, go ask them! Show them that we want more! And tell them what we want! Hire back Simon Templeman and Michael Bell (voices actors for Kain and Raziel).

Dude I nearly shat myself when I saw this in my recommended. Amazing job!

I'm actually playing through the series for the first time right now and I'm loving it! Blood omen is done I'm going through soul reaver right now

Big time Legacy of Kain & Soul Reaver fan here, and you did an amazing job capturing Raziel. It brings back fond memories of the game.

Aaaaand we're back! Amazing sculpture! The coin has finally landed on it's edge, can't wait to play the remasters!!

Thats some serious talent, my dude. He looks amazing and yea, plenty of fans out there. Great story, great game play. I tend to gravitate towards Kains story, as well as his character. Side note, the voice actor of Kain has been in Mass Effect, Elder Scrolls, and Dragon Age. Im kind of fan. Good stuff, well done. Awesome talent.

Idk who you are but I saw this in my recommendations and saw it was barely uploaded and had to see it since it’s LOK I was like whaaaat!? A fellow fan? Still alive!? And subscribed. And liked. :D awesome.

this is whole new level of art!it makes me wonna pursue the sculpting art t least to pour m imagination and turn into reality

After the announcement I had to come back here, what a great sculpt

A sculpt of Kain would be amazing. Can’t have Raziel without Kain

"I know you, Raziel. You are worthy."

"No hunger or weakness is no bar for vengeance's call, I'll find my slayers and send them BACK whence I came"

Man haven't played that game in a long time. He looks awesome. Super job brother.

I'm a fan of the Legacy Of Kain series. I'm happy to see this forgotten gem get some love in these hard times. Keep up the good work.

This series is the greatest. Thank you for creating this! He's my fav.

Saw the notification and instantly clicked without thinking. 😂😂

Yesterday I thought: Maybe I need Raziel as a figure and will print him with my 3D Printer, but the version you made is way cooler and I can see that you really enjoyed the work, which can be traced back to the games and you enjoying those as well :D Keep up the good work! I would have added nightglow as well xD

They need to make more games

My hat's off, you have given a powerful flesh reference to a game I'm replaying now. Wonderful work!

This is incredible!! The LoK games mean so much to me and it is just AMAZING to see other fans creating such beautiful, inspired tributes to the series. I'm astounded by your talent, patience and dedication. YOU ARE WORTHY.

Haha wow its been a while since i seen something from Soul Reaver! Good'ol Raziel. Awesome job, i do hope sony remasters and revives that series

KAIN UPDATE: Some sculpture targets I'd like to do, and some of you would like me to do, are very expensive to create, but not "trendy" enough to pay for their creation from adsense alone (it could cost upwards of a thousand to make one, and the Raziel video hasn't even generated 200$). To that end, for those that REALLY want to see Kain be sculpted, you can contribute to the crowd funded Money Pool to fund the cost of his creation: paypal.me/pools/c/8a5SB1jXRa I really want to make him, but I am now trying to use the best materials available (platinum silicone, etc). If you guys like the work, feel free to chip in. Once it's funded, I'll get on it. Top contributors will get a shoutout in the video (if we get there). Also, I have Patreon, which helps with operating costs, for anyone wanting to help out in a more consistent sense. I am all alone doing this in my apartment, my operating costs are enormous, and I could do a lot more with more patronage on Patreon. If I could hire out help with the video edits, for example, or even get an assistant, I could double my output. Patreon: www.patreon.com/LoreCrafter

The LOK series is epic! Check it out and you did it such justice. It's hard to capture the feel of the game but I believe you have done it! I would love to see a human Raziel, he has such a majesty.

I was just shown this by a friend and I love it. Amazing work!!! This has been one of my favorite characters created and now watching this bust created is just marvelous. Again, amazing job

I’m not one given to obsess over video games, but the opening dialogue to Soul Reaver 2 instantly enthralled me. So much so that I ended up naming an eight week old little black kitten that quite abruptly came into my life Raziel. He very nearly became Merlin but at the last, in a moment of inspiration it suddenly seemed divinely appropriate that he be named Raziel. That was over sixteen years ago, Raziel is now blind and diabetic and it’s tough to realize that I love this little cat as much as I’ve ever loved anything.

awesome dude!!!! you taked my heart, what more memorable memories!, that nostalgia!!!

Hello there lore craft I have been watching your videos for long time now and I can honestly say one of best I ever seen on youtube and I think you are master of creator and love watching your amazing skill of making those characters come to live and I remember opening sequence of legacy of kain soul reaver and it is still one my personal top ten games back in the day and seeing end product brilliant 😊

Holy shit love this game / series, love this sculpt amazing job man

I am an aspiring artist. I have recently begun taking college classes, and I intended to go into animation. However, this video alone has convinced me to rethink that and consider sculpture. Legacy of Kain has always been a huge influence and inspiration on my creative style, and this video was incredible. Subscribed, liked, and I love you man! Not only happy to see another artist, but happy as hell to know Legacy of Kain fans are still passionate and active out there!

I've never clicked on a RU-vid recommendation faster in my life. RU-vid got it right too. Liked, fav'd, subbed. Raziel is still, to this day, my favorite character design-wise. Thanks a lot, also, I'd definitely buy this.

Please! For god sakes, you must do Kain as well! I found this by pure accident last week and have no idea how I got by without it now. Kain would truly be amazing to see, highly hope you do it. Not gonna lie, one of the Ninja turtles would be truly wonderful as well. Not a scary face, no, but certainly unique in terms of sculptury

Kain!!!!

Raziel forever ! He looks great man . I felt like the game was never completed cause in blood omen Kain fights an older version of himself without the reaver blade and in soul reaver raziel is seen in a future scene with a red spirit blade known as the Kain blade so Kain and raziel eventually become one . Well I just thought that fans would like to know this truth also I heard yanos would have made a return as well but so many things happened that the story was just left unfinished.

This is just stunning. You absolutely nailed Raziel. Been a longtime fan, with Soul Reaver being my favorite of the series in both story and character. Please keep up the magnificent work and hope to possibly see another LoK character!

Great job on the exposed muscle, it really showed how truly ravaged he was by his "death". It's not something the games showed too well

LEGACY OF KAIN!!! WOOO!!!!

Amazing work!!! I love Raziel.

O O !!!!!!! OOOOOOMMMMFFFFFFF G ! WICKED !!! You have done a wicked job, if I was a rich fool I'd be harassing you to buy it from you =] Raziel is one of my youth's favorite all time. You are right, the game and story was quite nice, maybe overrated a bit for our time (some might say but not me) but you have revived the sweet memories like a dormant phoenix inside. Thank you very much for sharing and again, good job, you have done a superb work. XD

Great work on the raziel sculpture.

Amazing.Blood Omen and Soul Reaver really deserves a reboot,with the new darker looks like the sculpture you have made.

Favorite part of Raziel: Water burned away his entire lower jaw, kept his hair somehow.

Another spot on sculpt! I am amazed that you were able to paint lit with just UV. Whenever I draw, I usually have two fluorescent lights and a magnifying glass. By the way, how long does it take for your sculpts to dry before you can paint them?

5:19 Raziel....The Karen. Devourer of Managers.

God, while doing my yearly run through with the series I came across this. As someone who grew up in the PS1 era I am so thrilled to see this! Legacy of Kain will always be my favorite game series, going back to the Blood Omen days all the way to the end with Defiance. You definitely did an awesome job

I'm a huge fan of LOK, but especially Soul Rever! The fact that you covered the material and spectral plane was very cool. For bringing my favorite video game character to life, you earned a subscriber!

I'll make Kain at 500k' Me finding this years later still only at 300k. FUCK

Do venom of Spider-Man

Hello, I really love your work and as a great LoK fan I specially love this one for obvious reasons. You really gave him justice and he looks absolutely amazing. I allowed myself to give you a shout on my LoK fangroup on Deviant Art, so maybe that will help to bring some traffic to your channel and more votes for Kain and co. I invite you to check us out: lokclan.deviantart.com/. We have some really talented artists over there who keep our community alive, and maybe this might give you some inspiration too. :) I am always really happy to see that this series still has so much dedicated fans. :) Keep up the good work.

Why did YT recommended this to me only now? Amazing job! Truly trapped the essence of Raziel there... One thing missing would be a button which, upon pressing, would make Raziel say "I would choose oblivion over this existence!"

Great work! Great to see that there still are fans of the series out there, even 15 years later. :)

Yo should put more wear into the hair cause he is a corpse you know... that's the only thing I don't like put a wig that is more torn apart , more zombi like

Do mortal kombat characters

Do krampus the Christmas demon or one of the ghost busters

That is one of the most badass sculptures I have seen. Sir you are a master in my eyes.

This series really needs to come back.

Bravo sir, bravo. That is simply amazing. You had me traveling back to my childhood with that sculpture. Kudos. 😎👍

I'm a fan myself. Love the the Shakespearean / philosophical delivery of the two main characters.

Absolutely amazing stuff man, Soul Reaver 2 was the first ever PS2 game I got back in the day and absolutely loved it. The glow in the dark paints was a perfect idea for this sculpt and even going to the extra effort of sculpting what would probably never be seen behind his robe, 10/10 stuff.

This is my go-to video whenever I think about a Soul Reaver-remake~

Raziel might be the most Jaw-dropping character in video game history, espescially during original Playstation era
