Wildcard Wednesday #23

This week, we can expect: a whole lot of Arlecchino (with a touch of Rise of the Guardians to welcome the holidays)

Arlecchino!, commedia dell'arte, humor, character design, concept art, sketches

Arlecchino #7: Some experimenting with body movement and positions on characters such as Arlecchino or Brighella, an inamorata, Pedrolino, and Capitano. In commedia dell'arte, there are very set movements and positions for each character. Working on that now will add character to the drawings, and later on to the animation.

Arlecchino #8: Playing around with one of the servants, Columbina. I've ultimately decided to keep her usually unmasked (since most women in commedia dell'arte didn't wear masks), but for scenarios where she disguises herself, I have created a mask that will work well with the expressions on her face.
To the right of her is Vittora. She can be either an inamorata or a servant, and in my story's case, I'm making her another servant - she's like Cosette, and I'm planning on paring her up with Pierrot later.

Arlecchino #9: More character sketches. On the left is Arlecchino with friend and fellow servant Pedrolino (still playing around with his design). On the right is Vittora and Pierrot meeting each other mid errand.


Rise of the Guardians #1: Recently introduced a friend of mine to Rise of the Guardians, which made me remember my own love for this film and everything about it. The Tooth Fairy's face is really awkward to draw, by the way!

Wildcard Wednesday #16

Hi, M³ here! This week, we can expect: a company out for a goddess's blood, Eleven doing incredible stuff with her mind, while Kanzaki and Suga watch in in awe and Jack Frost sets in.

Kill the Goddess!, concept art

Kill the Goddess! Cover Concept: This is just a little cover idea from my school sketchbook. I'll probably preview Kill the Goddess! as a graphic novel/web comic series before I can finally animate it, so this is just one concept for that particular version of the project.

Stranger Things, Eleven, fan art

Stranger Things-Eleven: Stranger Things is one of my top favorite shows ever! I finished it in two days and binge-watched it twice with friends, and I'm definitely watching it again before season two comes out. In the midst of all my heavy homework, I didn't get a chance to do any fan art for this, but now there'll be lots more where this came from (Eleven is such a beast!). This is also a work in progress, as you can tell by the inked in eyes.

Forest of Drizzling Rain, Kirisame, RPG horror, Kanzaki, Shiori

FODR-Kanzaki WIP: Last week I introduced myself to an RPG horror gem, Forest of Drizzling Rain (or Kirisame), and I love it! (Plot in a nutshell: when Kanzaki's parents die, she goes off to learn about her outer family, but comes across horror and forgotten memories involving a vengeful ghost. It's a spooky, touching game-check it out!) I'll also start doing some fan art for this, plus it'll be a good excuse to bring my manga drawing skills back to shape.

Forest of Drizzling Rain, Kirisame, RPG horror, Suga

FODR-Suga WIP: This is the other main character from Forest of Drizzling Rain, Suga. He is such an awesome, lonely character. He is the manager of the family mansion Kanzaki goes to visit, and a whole lot more.....to say anything else about his character would be full of spoilers! Also a hand trace in Illustrator based off of a physical sketch.


Rise of the Guardians, Jack Frost, Dreamworks, animation

Jack Frost: Here in Nebraska we've got our first freeze warning, so to welcome the frost, what better way than with a sketch of this guy? (sketched either last year or earlier this year) Rise of the Guardians is one of the two Dreamworks movies I actually like (the other being the underrated Megamind), and Jack Frost is one of my favorite animated characters of all time. He and this movie were also the final push I needed to realize how much I wanted to go into animation.
