Also, new hrp with "shadow" font and some textures from Roma Loom and Root 9 picture.

Instead of using Root 9's somewhat inaccurate remake of that tile, why not just scan it off of a Blood big box? (European versions have this logo instead of the handprint)

I would be more impressed if somebody actually went and remade the gargoyle from scratch too.
Also the font is too dark compared with the original one but that's just me.
Anyway, kudos for the time that you've put into it.
yeah I know man, I was drawing it first from scratch too, but then I gave that up for some reason...
That's why I think it needs some improvement.. The text can be easily brightened.
Thanks guys for the comments!!!
I'll try and make the gargoyle from scratch, but I have exams coming up so I don't know when it will be ready

What's inaccurate about it? I think it resembles the original tile quite good..

For starters, the B and D are on the edge of the plaque, wherein the original it has some space between the letters and the edges. Some of the letters are too closely spaced together, such as the O's. Some of the marble formations are incorrect, and the dark marble is much too dark and doesn't have enough formation to it. The embossment as a whole feels wrong, as well. It's not bad, it's just not accurate.
You can get a 100% accurate scan of the original logo in it's original quality level from the European big box.

Be happy that after all these years, quality stuff is finally being made for Blood.

My point is that you don't have to reconstruct it. Just like somebody scanned the Duke3D big box or mouse-pad (I can't remember which) for the Duke3D HRP.

I only became interested in blood recently and when the only way to play it is through dosbox with low resolution and dodgy controls it hampers the motivation.
Keep up the gooh work

Hey, the gargoyle from the box art looks slightly better than the scaled one.
Maybe root 9 can add the box gargoyle over his version and just keep the Blood logo with it's background.
The problem with finding a properly scanned box for Blood is the name of the game itself.
Searching for the word Blood followed by anything, makes it very hard to spot such an old game that wasn't extremely popular like, half life or duke nukem for ex.
And with all the violence in the world, the word blood is found in almost every context and every forum and site ever...

It's music from CD version of Blood? Seems it isn't so similar to the original

I think not. Because it's too dark, it lost too much detail, plus scan artifacts, so even the upscaled version looks much better.

I think it's not worth it.

Consider the CD tracks 'real' recordings with instruments and voices whereas the ingame music is their MIDI representation.
