assorted lupats i dont think ive posted here

[ID: a series of digital Lupinranger VS Patranger sketches.

the first image is a three-panel sequence of the lupins in a cartoony style, popping out from behind a wall, descending in position, each in their respective colours. in the first, Kairi says "ル," followed by Touma saying "パ," and Umika saying "ン."

the second image is of the patrens taking a selfie together, in pink lines on a white background. Tsukasa and Sakuya are both smiling with the Snapchat dog filter over them, giving them ears and a long tongue, while Keiichiro points to himself and says "Why doesn't it work for me??"

the third is a red monochrome sketch of Kairi kissing a grumpy-looking Keiichiro on the cheek. the fourth image is a bust sketch of Touma in various shades of blue. he is wearing a chef uniform and staring up blankly as a rat peaks out from under his toque.

the fifth image is a drawing of Zamigo standing in the snow and eating a block of ice. his skin is blue and frostbitten. this drawing is partially coloured, but below his chest it is sketchy, unrefined, and uncoloured.

the sixth image is a doodle of Kairi, red lines on a pale yellow background, in his Lupin Red disguise, standing with three pokemon. to his right is a shiny Armarouge labeled "Magnum," while to his left is a Victini labeled "Victory," and a shiny Liepard labeled "Red."

the seventh image is a screenshot of a canvas with a photo of Ito Asahi behind a partially-painted sketch of the same image, redrawn as Kairi. he is sitting with his chin resting on his knee and looking to the side.

the last image is an unfinished sketch of Kairi, in his Lupin Red disguise, dancing with Keiichiro. it is done in pink lines on a white background and Keiichiro has more details filled in than Kairi. /END ID]

I had an idea for a seemingly random project a while back, but I was too busy to even suggest it.

I'm not seeing a lot of Akudama Drive fangirls around lately... So maybe my timing is poor, but let's start with a poll.

*My idea is that each artist would draw one or a couple characters, so the photo being redrawn (I have a specific one in mind) would have a mish mash of artstyles.

This would be for fun and volunteer based. Like "pick your character, and we can create a picture that shows off the artstyles of a group of fans." All skill levels accepted.

Seven artists maximum, because there are seven characters. However, since this is a very small fandom, if there are less artists available, we could either choose to omit one or multiple characters, or to have one or multiple artists draw multiple characters. The drawings don't have to be polished, though we should agree beforehand on elements such as whether they will coloured and/or shaded.

This is the picture. I hope you see my idea at least... I should probably have thought this up at a time when more people were active... Though by the time the stage play came out, it was already rough. It would be fun to have a drawing of this picture with a different artist for each Akudama. If no one is interested in doing this, I will definitely sketch some of the Akudama using this ref for fun eventually!

(If you know an Akudama Drive fanartist who would be interested but is not on tumblr, don't hesitate to let them know about this idea and try to get me in touch with them!)

A lot of redrawn/reimagined art

For an art prompt. We were allowed to submit redrawn versions of five pieces. New ones (all from this month) posted before old ones; all pen on paper coloured digitally.

Right is from 2021 using the free trial of my copy of Illustrator CS3 I'd been using since 2010 that I got after my computer died.

(Right from 2019 with the same copy of Illustrator but before my computer died; same applies for the next two)

(2015)

(2012)

(2011 (probably; other art in the same artbook looks like I was cribbing from the type of stuff I'd have seen around where I lived at the time), pencils)

[krowspiracyanon]

Krow belongs to @thekrows-nest.

I probably won't finish this because the hair and skintone have me stuck. It may even have to be completely redrawn.

However. This picture was one of the the first detailed pieces attempted after buying Procreate Pocket in August and trying digital art out for the first time. It began as a low effort repaint of the 'toddler with gun' meme but then I started using it to properly learn the tools and went ham.

What I like: The detail of Krow's design and the blending of their skin tones. The realistic style. Their expression. This is before I read anything about facial proportion or expressions so I drew that face instinctively by eye, but the anguished emotion of the original still somehow came through.

What I don't like: It began as a lazy repaint over a toddler so the body proportions are off for an adult. Far too chunky.

I chose a default base colour that was too warm and light for Krow's skin and used a reference picture with harsh overly bright lighting that lightened and distorted the colours. This, in combination with overzealous blending of highlights into the mid tone, ended up whitewashing their skin. (I didn't know about changing brush opacity then.) In canon art and other fanart Krow has darker cool toned skin. (Krow is Indian/Bengali.)

Attempts to darken the shadows to put the lighter 'overexposed' looking parts of face in context and paint over with a more appropriate shade only orangewashed them, and adding more details to try and tone their skin down darker just turned their cute freckles into muddy hyperpigmentation. I wish I had known or knew how to just colour adjust the original. Ps. Those round dark shadows are from their headphones.

I'm sorry king. I'm still learning, studying guides and source material now and will try to do better next time.

Also all this was done on a smartphone with a cheap stylus so even with the fineliner brush tool as small as it could go I couldn't write small enough for the allotted space on the buttons - so the details on there are blurry approximations.

I also didn't Glaze it because the artifacts of the filter were highly visible, a problem I'm having a lot. I'm sorry for the watermarkish writing - don't want someone to repost it with no context and get me dragged.

Tintin Destination Moon Paint gag Comparison

Objectif Lune (Originally serialized as On a Marché sur la Lune)

Written by Hergé

Drawn by Studios Hergé (Hergé, Bob de Moor et al.)

In this blog I attempt to show the key differences between this gag in the original serialized version and the later collected edition. I originally wanted this to be a short and simple post but when analysing the strips more closely I started to notice many other differences between the two versions, and I started to write those down as well. Obviously, the colouring is very different between the two versions something which is to be expected and I won’t really comment on.

The original serialized version of the story has only ever been rereleased in French in Hergé, le feuilleton intégral tome 11 and Tintin Les premiers pas sur la Lune both of which can be purchased on the official Tintin store. Unfortunately, the Dutch translation of the original version was never rereleased, and it has never seen a release in English at all. The images I use for this blog are scans of the Dutch language versions of these stories.

On a marché sur la Lune, Le Journal de Tintin Year 5 #27/Mannen op de Maan, Weekblad Kuifje Jaargang 5 #27 was originally published by Le Lombard on the 6th of July 1950.

Objectif Lune/Raket naar de Maan/Destination Moon originally published in Dutch and French by Casterman in 1953 (This Dutch edition is from 1981).

I will be going over these pages panel by panel, describing what’s different and sometimes explaining why. The first panel has been completely redrawn, so all the characters fit in the now slightly shorter panel. Tintin’s position is unchanged, but Haddock and Calculus were moved more to the left. The pockets and folds in their clothing is slightly changed, Tintin’s eyebrows are more pronounced in the redrawn version. The biggest change in this panel is Haddock’s positioning, his head is now turned more to the left (our left). At first glance panel 2 seems to have only been shortened, cutting out Calculus’ question mark balloon, Haddock’s dialogues is shortened to “Watch out!...” dropping the word “Professor”. But on closer inspection we can see that Haddock’s head is drawn differently, Calculus’ pupils are also in a different position. The third panel is now longer and a Haddock chasing after Calculus was added. The man holding the grate has been completely removed from the comic, instead we now see a signpost with a sign saying “Watch out! Freshly painted!”. But these are not the only differences in this panel, when looking closer one can see the painter has also been redrawn slightly. His overall has more folds and is a bit more detailed, his neck has also gotten an extra line and his overall also doesn’t cover his shoes as much as it used to. When looking closely at his head we can also notice that he has a new cap in the redraw which is more spherical. The last difference surrounds the man walking in the background, his original position is now covered up by the sign, so he was moved to the left and is now walking the opposite direction. Panel 4 was also changed significantly. Obviously, the man holding the grate was removed again his exclamation mark balloon was also removed and instead the painter now gets a question mark balloon. The panel is also wider now, so we actually see Haddock getting hit by the paint. Calculus falling into the painter now also has the added side effect of knocking over the signpost, causing the sign to leap through the air. The painter was redrawn again for this version, his face was redrawn in a style much closer to Bob de Moor’s personal art style and his cap now has 129 on it instead of the double-digit number it had before. Panel 5 is also quite different, in the redrawn version Haddock no longer has the striped pattern because the man with the grate was removed and is instead completely read from the shoulders and above. The original panel shows us a medium shot of Haddock which the redrawn version changes to full shot. In the redrawn version the paint blast has also knocked over Haddock’s captain’s hat which can be seen (painted red) on the floor in the bottom left corner. The sign has also landed on Haddock for added comedic effect, the knocked over signpost can still be seen in the bottom right corner. Panel 6 was completely removed from the collected edition, its text now having been added to panel 7. The seventh panel is the only one not to have been redrawn, the only changes were the added caption from panel 6 and that the text balloon was moved down to make room for this.

The main differences between the two versions are that the grate was removed from the joke and Haddock was more present in the drawings as extra set up. This last bit caused some panels to be widened which in turn caused others to be shrunk. Although Bob de Moor worked on both versions, it’s obvious judging by the style that he redrew the pages largely on his own.

Destination Moon and its companion book Explorers on the Moon have many differences from their original serialized version. Certain pages were added, others were scrapped, certain panels were redrawn, reordered, or slightly enlarged. Most of this was done because the original 118 page* story had to be divided over two collected editions each holding 62 pages of comic strips. Most of the new pages were added to Destination whilst about 2,5 pages were cut for Explorers. The reason I decided to focus on this paint gag specifically was because it looks very different from the original yet there seems to be no obvious reason for the change. Both versions take up the exact same amount of space on the page. Perhaps Hergé wasn’t happy with the original gag, the grate does make it a bit more contrived or perhaps he wanted Haddock to be more present in it. But this is pure speculation, in any case I’m happy it got redrawn. I personally find the version in the collected edition much funnier because there’s a bit more anticipation in this version; we see Haddock chasing after Calculus and then we actually see him get hit by the spray paint. That said I really like the original drawing on panel 5, I like Haddock’s expression and figure more in that one. The paint dripping off his fingers is a nice touch too. I hope you enjoyed my comparison of this short gag from Destination Moon, as mentioned before the story has many differences which I might delve into in the future!

*The exact number of pages depends on whether or not you count the cover pages especially made for the story and the summary page, I excluded these from my count (none of these made it into the collected editions anyway) including them the total would be 125 pages.

(I've been very busy since the second year of my third course has started, very sorry for lack of updates)

Before I post anything relating to the last major project in the first year of the third course, I am side tracking to a smaller project that was done just before the last project.

This smaller project was to design a risograph print that would be sold in another pop-up shop. This time I could choose whether to have an A3 print or smaller prints to sell.

For this I chose to produce 4 prints that were A5 sized where my theme was to be different flowers in a range of layouts and patterns. After creating a range of mood boards for inspiration, I drew the main flowers I was going to use for the prints which I had a variety of different 'poses' I was going to us.

The linework was redrawn digitally in Adobe Illustrator before they were coloured and aligned in Adobe Photoshop. All the prints were placed onto an A3 document to make printing on the Risograph Printer easier.

I gained advice for colour options as I had a form of idea as to what I wanted to do but wasn't too sure. After doing some colour tests, I printed the final prints and cut them to be the correct size for them to be sold. I fortunately printed a lot so I had some copies spare to showcase the final products.

The finalised colours were burgundy, blue, green and red. They were meant to be more aligned but they came out uneven however I still liked these as the unaligned areas created a more unique effect.

That's all for now.

If you have any questions don't be afraid to ask.

2024 Honda CB500 Hornet

Honda’s A2 naked twin-cylinder streetfighter joins the Hornet family, with aggressive new styling and aerodynamic improvements befitting the iconic name. Power and torque for the 471cc engine meet maximum A2 licence requirement– at 35kW and 43Nm – while an ECU update improves acceleration feel and Honda Selectable Torque Control is now standard. The high-quality chassis specification includes 41mm Showa SFF-BP USD forks, Showa rear shock and dual discs up front with four-piston calipers. A brand-new LED headlight opens up better visibility at night, while a new 5-inch TFT screen offers Honda RoadSync smartphone connectivity, operated by a simplified and backlit 4-way toggle switch.

- Introduction The naked CB500F – originally launched in 2013 alongside the adventure-styled CB500X (now NX500) and fully-faired CBR500R – quietly proved that one of Honda’s tried-and-trusted formulas for building popular motorcycles had an enduring relevance. That formula? An entertaining twin-cylinder engine wrapped in a simple, lightweight, sporty chassis. And, while a 35kW peak power output made it suitable for A2 licence holders, the CB500F always offered so much more than ‘entry level’ performance. Sure, it was an easy machine to manage, ride and learn on, but those same attributes also made it a genuine pleasure for those stepping up from a 125 or coming down from a bigger machine. Sensible running costs, whatever the situation, added strongly to the appeal. In 2019, the CB500F was redrawn with uncompromising lines that elevated its technical and mechanical aspects and 22YM saw it receive high-quality suspension in the form of Showa 41mm SFF-BP USD forks and dual front discs, plus new lightweight wheels and swingarm. For 24YM Honda’s formula for the 500 streetfighter continues to evolve. Joining an iconic Honda family, the new CB500 Hornet follows in the wheel tracks of the impressive CB750 Hornet with aggressive new styling, high-end technology and a variety of detail upgrades that are sure to make it one of Europe’s most popular motorcycles.

- Model Overview A new name and new look give the CB500 Hornet a fresh edge as it rides into 24YM. Premium new tech too, in the form of a 5-inch TFT screen – operated by an intuitive and easy-to-use lefthand switchgear – features the smartphone connectivity of Honda RoadSync. The A2-compliant, slipper clutch-equipped twin-cylinder engine benefits from the addition of Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) as well as ECU updates to improve acceleration. Chassis specification includes Showa 41mm SFF-BP USD forks as before, with dual radial-mount four-piston brake calipers. The 24YM CB500 Hornet will be available in the following colour options: Matt Gunpowder Black Metallic Grand Prix Red Pearl Himalayas White

- Key Features 3.1 Styling & Equipment - New streetfighter style incorporates aerodynamics that improve steering and agility - New LED headlight and taillight - New 5-inch full colour TFT screen includes Honda RoadSync connectivity for on-screen turn-by-turn navigation and access to other smartphone functions - New, simplified left hand switchgear is easy to use and backlit for night-time The CB500 Hornet’s aggressive new look is inspired by the streetfighter DNA of its big sibling and was led by the design banner ‘Digital Dynamism’. A sensual form front to rear, it also offers mass contrast, with a ‘wedge’ silhouette weighted forward with very slim rear section, muscular fuel tank and sharp new nose cone fairing. And there’s function to the form; the geometric angles of the fairing also incorporate headlight side ducts that channel airflow smoothly around to the upper fuel tank area. This aerodynamic package contributes to a linear steering feel with increased handling agility. A new LED headlight design maintains beam penetration but throws out wider light distribution, for increased visibility when riding – and cornering – at night. It’s matched to a new sleek taillight, and all lighting is LED. Premium technology, in the form of a brand new 5-inch full colour TFT screen inherited from the CB1000R, uses optical bonding to improve visibility in bright sunlight, a first for a Honda motorcycle. By sealing the gap between the cover glass and TFT screen with resin, glare is reduced and backlight transmittance improved. It’s customisable between Bar, Circle and Simple display patterns and also offers the IOS/Android smartphone connectivity of Honda RoadSync. This new feature – alongside a simplified, easy-to-use, backlit 4-way toggle-switch on the left handlebar – allows straightforward, on-screen turn-by-turn navigation as well as the option (via a Bluetooth helmet headset) for the rider to make calls or listen to music. All an owner has to do is download the Honda RoadSync app from either the Play Store or the App Store, connect to the CB500 Hornet, and go. Tapered handlebars offer intuitive feel and leverage. Seat height is low at 785mm, making the CB500 Hornet very easy to manage and its neutral riding position comfortably accommodates riders of any height. Purposeful-looking aluminium footpegs are lightweight and add a sporting feel. Overall dimensions are 2080mm x 800mm x 1060mm, with 145mm ground clearance. The fuel tank holds 17.1L including reserve and combined with the engine’s excellent 3.5L/100km (28.6km/litre) fuel economy, gives a range of over 485km.

3.2 Chassis - 41mm Showa Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) USD forks - Dual 296mm discs, Nissin radial mount four-piston calipers - Lightweight wheels and swingarm Light, strong and unchanged for 24YM, the 35mm diameter steel diamond-tube mainframe has a tuned degree of yield that gives plenty of feedback to the rider as road surfaces change. The shape and position of the engine mounts, plus the frame’s rigidity balance, keep vibration to a minimum. Wheelbase is 1410mm with rake and trail of 25.5°/102mm, and front/rear bias percentage is a perfect 50/50. Kerb weight is 188kg. Like its sibling the CB750 Hornet, the CB500 Hornet features Showa 41mm Separate Function Fork Big Piston (SFF-BP) USD forks which divide the functions – Big Piston pressure separation damper in one leg, spring mechanism in the other – and reaction and ride quality are top draw. The swingarm is constructed from 2mm steel and employs a hollow cross member; it is stiff rotationally, and flexible laterally to improve handling. The single-tube Showa rear shock absorber, with its large-diameter piston, ensures excellent response and temperature management and features 5-stage preload adjustment. Dual 296mm front discs are worked by Nissin radial-mount, four-piston calipers; the rear 240mm disc by a single-piston caliper. Lightweight rims use 5 Y-shaped spokes; the 3.5-inch front wears a 120/70-ZR17 tyre, and the 4.5-inch rear a 160/60-ZR17 tyre.

3.3 Engine - Lively twin-cylinder powerplant now equipped with Honda Selectable Torque Control (HSTC) - New PGM-FI settings improve low-rpm acceleration and power delivery across the rev-range - Assist/slipper clutch eases upshifts and manages rear wheel through downshifts Delivering maximum A2-licence performance, the friendly 471cc, 8-valve liquid-cooled parallel twin-cylinder layout offers a well-proportioned balance of physical size and willing, enjoyable power output, with an energetic, high-revving character and zappy top end. And it's very much an engine whose overall performance and character belie its relatively small capacity; peak power of 35kW arrives at 8,600rpm, with 43Nm torque delivered at 6,500rpm. A 24YM addition is HSTC to manage rear wheel traction for increased peace of mind and a real boost for rider confidence. The system compares front and rear wheel speeds to detect rear slip and controls the fuel injection to smoothly reduce torque. HSTC can also be turned off completely if the rider wishes. Feeding the PGM-FI fuel injection is a more-or-less straight shot of airflow through the airbox and throttle bodies. Optimisation of ignition timing and air/fuel ratio equals more powerful acceleration feel from low rpm, with linear power delivery and throttle feel. The exhaust muffler features dual exit pipes, giving a sporting edge to each pulse, and a rasping high-rpm howl. Bore and stroke are set at 67mm x 66.8mm and compression ratio is 10.7:1; the crankshaft pins are phased at 180° and a primary couple-balancer sits behind the cylinders, close to the bike’s centre of gravity. The primary and balancer gears use scissor gears, reducing noise. The crank counterweight is specifically shaped for couple-balance and its light weight allows the engine to spin freely, with reduced inertia. Acting as a stressed member, the engine complements the frame’s rigidity with four frame hangers. Internally the cylinder head uses roller rocker arms; shim-type valve adjustment allows them to be light, for lower valve-spring load and reduced friction. A silent (SV Chain) cam chain has the surface of its pins treated with Vanadium, reducing friction with increased protection against wear. Inlet valve diameter is 26.0mm with exhaust valve diameter of 21.5mm. Piston shape is carefully designed to reduce piston ‘noise’ at high rpm. Friction is reduced by striations on the piston skirt (a finish that increases surface area, introducing gaps in which oil can flow for better lubrication). The ‘triangle’ proportion of crankshaft, main shaft and countershaft is efficiently compact and the crankcases employ centrifugally cast thin-walled sleeves; their internal design reduces the ‘pumping’ losses that can occur with a 180° phased firing order. A deep sump reduces oil movement under hard cornering and braking; oil capacity is 3.2L. A slick-changing six-speed gearbox is managed by an assist/slipper clutch, eliminating rear wheel ‘hop’ under hard braking and downshifting.

- Accessories A range of Genuine Honda Accessories are available for the CB500 Hornet, as individual items or grouped in packs, and ready to bolt straight on: Style Pack For enhanced sporty looks, the Style Pack includes a Meter Visor for the instrument display and added wind deflection, a protective Tank Pad prevents paint damage to the tank, a Seat Cowl for the passenger seat that matches the colour of the rear panels of the bike, and a Wheel Stripe kit for a flash of extra colour. Comfort Pack Commuting made easier with the Heated Grips for colder days, an ACC socket to conveniently charge electronic devices while stored under the seat and a Main Stand that makes for easy chain maintenance and safer parking on uneven surfaces. Travel Pack Includes the 3L Tank Bag with see-through pocket for smartphones and a rain cover and the 15L Rear Seat Bag, expandable to 22L, which provide flexible and convenient carrying capacity for the weekend trips. Outside of the main packs, a 35L Top Box and the Rear Carrier required for its installation are also available. All the accessories featured in packs can also be purchased individually.

Redrawn art <3

This was a piece I had originally made when I was feeling more comfortable with my digital art and started experimenting with what I could do to make my art stand out from others. I was haveing very bad dysmorphia in general and decided to take a very unsymmetrical and geometric take to my art. The thought was that nobody is perfect, so my art was just showing that the things I didn't like about me were beautiful. So I decided to redraw my older art, it's a beautiful reminder that everyday in my art journey I am progressing. Not only has my style developed more, but I understand colour and the ways things interact in a environment.

W10: Objects redrawn. x5

Origins and storys

I wasnt liking the previous lineart style of the objects. It was too empty and falling into the splash design (which also might be changed). I wanted to incorporate more of my style and preference into the illustration, so i have started to draw the objects digitally, with colour and more detail.

Major Project, Refining upcycling sketches for guide

My original set of sketches which I used for my upcycling guide were just rough and weren't as refined as I liked. But as they were only for mockups to create the basic layout. So I have fine tuned them and redrawn a whole new set of visuals to include within the illustrated guide to be included in the starter pack. 

I used the same method as before by hand drawing the steps and then scanning them into illustrator. I wanted to see what they would look like with a colour background when I replace them for the old versions in my illustrated guide. I have also tweaked a few of the illustrations so they are more detailed. So that they represent each step, also easy to follow.  

I also came up with the idea of creating a visual took kit guide showing what the starter pack includes. which could be used within the guide or within the digital version. I love how these tools have come out especially with the colour background. Although I have just realised that having gloves within this starter pack would also be useful aswell as having paint tray. So I may add these two tools to this starter pack.
