Illustration Interpretations of Mina

These are different illustrations i have found online of what Mina would look like and how they have seen it. I really like this one as it shows the way Dracula is controlling her and keeping her at his will, so she doesnt realise what is happening, i also like how Dracula himself is dressed all in black and almost like a shadow over her, and the way she is wearing white, because she is innocent and her being tied up i think represents controlling her.



This is more of a digital, comic book sort of style of Mina and i have chosen this as i want to portray the controlling of Mina and how she would look when done so, So the eyes glazed over and some sort of mark on her forhead, so that it shows whose command she is under and how much Dracula loves her he would do this to her, even though she has no say in the matter. I like the way it is a comic book style, but that is quite modern and thats not how the character is supposed to be done, but the way they have interpretated of what they think it would be like is good to know, as im creating how i would see her.







































This is a sort of moodboard i found from tumblr of how Mina is portrayed and how she feels, i like it and how it looks very romantic and thats how it looks when she is with Dracula, he makes her feel things she hasnt before. I like the modern way of using the pearl necklace with red beads as though she has been bitten instead of marks on the neck. It sort of sets a mood that makes you think of images of what she would look like from the book and the atmosphere of what they thought it would be like and where.
