RAHH SCREENSHOT REDRAW‼️‼️🦅

Doing these always makes me realise how stylised some of the character designs in this show are, namely Carmen’s massive head and the insane slope of Shadowsan’s shoulders 😭

Zack and Ivy are pretty normal tho 👍

I love this episode cause wtf was Shadowsan doing dressed like that any where outside VILE, ‘master of being unnoticed’ bbg put some damn trousers on 😭

Well well well, back again with more Carmen

CSOW - DAY 2: MISSION - CHANGE

Timeframe: Before S1 even began

At a theme park in Shanghai during a planned heist, Carmen was faced against an obstacle. That obstacle being an operative sent by Vile to stop the elusive super-thief well known as Carmen Sandiego.

This would've been easy, if only years of history weren't made between the two.

What will this person be to Carmen? an old friend? or a new foe.

(for more details about the scene if u check the rest)

--- what i'll probably name the episode: 回到历史/Huí dào lìshǐ Caper (Back to History Caper)

Keywords: Vulnerability, Exposure, Unfamiliarity, Change.

The way i used lighting here is weirdly "comfortable" for a situation that can tense and lethal. Neither Carmen nor Blank are comfy. it's to give the viewer and the characters a feeling of uneasiness and unfamiliarity for an atmosphere meant to be nostalgic and at ease.

Or it can be interpreted as their priority or end game. only abit of green light is seen in the scene. to show that they're acknowledging that Vile is there, but their bond comes first. Hence the shitload of warm light

Carmen doesn't seem to be wearing her signature red fedora and coat, neither is Blank wearing his mask. Carmen before the red attire was Black Sheep. Blank before the mask was... whoever he was. The characters lack of their main elements is meant to symbolize longing. An attempt to bond with their old selves. But even so;

It's as if Carmen never even knew him despite the years they've spent together back at the academy. And that Blank lost the Black Sheep he once was close with.

CARMEN SANDIEGO (2019) + locations ║ VILE headquarters in the Canary Islands [1/?]

[ID : four pencil sketches, digitally colored, of characters from the 2019 show Carmen Sandiego.

Carmen as seen by Zack and Ivy during their first meeting in the donut shop, but she looks closer to her young appearance in VILE island : her hair goes to her shoulders, her face is rounder and she wears the coat and hat she stole from Cookie Booker. She is frowning and balling her fists as if trying to appear intimidating.

Carmen on the runway in Milan. Her hair, in a ponytail, is fluffy like her regular hair. She looks to the viewer with a cocky smile as she strikes a pose.

Julia in Rio, wearing the ACME suit with the pants instead of the skirt. She is leaning against the table where Carmen and Shadowsan were drinking coffee, looking intently at a cup.

Zack at the party in Dubai, wearing a black jacket with a complex multicolored pattern. He looks to the side with a smile. /End ID]

Some things I wish we'd seen in season 2 of Carmen Sandiego! In no particular order, a visibly younger and scruffy Carmen during her first meeting with Ivy and Zack, Carmen's Milan runway look having her fluffy hair instead of it being straightened, Julia in an ACME pantsuit instead of the skirt, and Zack wearing a more original jacket than the black one he wore in the Emirates.

(Zack's suit is from here, because I could not design something this complicated)

chipper had to take their mask off for the photo, but hey!! the lighting saved them

When the puns start they just don't stop. Featuring me figuring out how to make color masks in Photoshop.

[vileoperativeamaryllis]

Your backgrounds look stunning. How do you do it?

Sadly I don’t have one specific answer, but I just experiment a lot until I feel satisfied! Though sometimes I like to draw real life places!

I’ve to admit, backgrounds are not my best area!

[zoedog51]

Here's she yet again

[tiredguyswag]

I love how our first shot of Carmen (in the show, at least) is of her walking onto a roof and the final shot is of her walking off the roof (I assume) as her theme plays in the background. Something something feeling like a drawing of the curtains and her entering and her entering and leaving just as we knew her, as the Crimson Shadow.

Okay,

Im in S1 still and they *just* introduced bestie boy Spencer's Pro Chefiness

Like even when its not a perfect flow, the charm of each character and the ACTING is so freaking good,

I fully am Absorbed like each hour, Im not even crafting, i havent watched tv like this since freaking Revue Starlight
