Resident Evil Village Fan Creates Gruesome Lady Dimitrescu Statue, Complete With Bathtub

When Capcom started marketing Resident Evil Village, it did so with a big focus on the villainous Lady Dimitrescu. The extremely tall vampire woman instantly became a hit with Resident Evil fans, inspiring countless cosplays and fan art based on the character. Fans are still paying homage to Lady Dimitrescu months after Resident Evil Village's release, with the latest example being an incredibly detailed statue created by artist Lotoso.

Lotoso's Resident Evil Village Lady Dimitrescu statue depicts the fan favorite villain chilling in a bathtub, but with a gruesome twist. Instead of water, it appears as though Lady Dimitrescu is bathing in blood (described as a "Wine Bath" in Lotoso's YouTube video explaining how the statue was made). While this is a fitting detail for someone that's basically a vampire, it's worth pointing out that this actually seems to be a nod to a specific part of the game.

While exploring Castle Dimitrescu in Resident Evil Village, protagonist Ethan Winters will come across a room with a bathtub, very similar to the one seeing in lotoso_art's statue. When Ethan arrives, the tub is filled with blood, which can be drained by adjusting the position of the statues in the room. This reveals a secret passage that Ethan can take to progress the story.

The details like this show that Lotoso clearly put a lot of effort into bringing this Resident Evil Village Lady Dimitrescu statue to life. The statue even includes Lady Dimitrescu's huge wide-brimmed black hat, a very important piece of her outfit, sitting near the tub. Overall it's an incredible piece of art and should undoubtedly impress Resident Evil Village fans, especially those who consider themselves fans of Lady Dimitrescu.

Considering how much Lady Dimitrescu was featured in the Resident Evil Village promotional materials, many have argued that the character was underutilized in the actual game. Resident Evil Village only features Lady Dimitrescu briefly before it moves on to other things, and this is one of the common criticisms that have been aimed at the game since launch.

There is some hope that the Resident Evil Village DLC will serve as a second chance for Lady Dimitrescu to have her time in the spotlight, but details on what exactly that DLC will entail remain scarce at the time of this writing. The only thing Resident Evil fans know for sure is that DLC is in the works, but they'll have to wait until a later date to learn more details.

Resident Evil Village is out now for PC, PS4, PS5, Stadia, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X.
