#tumblr 2022 review

[aeternal-nightmare]

Summary of art!!!

I'm happy to see how my art is slowly getting better each year. This one was pretty harsh but also productive. At the end of the year, as I finished the last exams in university (there's only final project left, which will be in may) I'm kinda tired of everything. I don't have much energy even after the month of rest. I WANT to draw, I have tons of ideas, but I'm really not in the mood to do something big, something that will take more than 2-3 hours to make. And that's okay I think, I'll continue drawing as much as I want and what I want, not pushing myself too much. Waiting until I'm fully rested again and ready to create some bangers using everything I've learned from these 6 years. Lol.

REBLOGS HIGHLY APPRECIATED, really :>

[brandirecognition]

2023 was a funky year (including work that I can't share + going to grad school) but I still made some neat pieces! on to the next one

sorry not sorry but murderbot dropping ‘i was going to kill all humans until i saw sanctuary moon and then i decided i’d rather watch that instead’ on the sanctuary moon team like a space future atom bomb is exquisite.

assistant sound director going home like ‘yeah your other son might be a doctor but guess who stopped a mass murder?’ a couple lead actors developing even worse diva/god complexes than they already had. the insane stress on the production team ‘if we don’t get the next season out when we promised it might snap and kill thousands of innocent people. it probably won’t. but it might.’ the overwhelming preening desire to work it into ad campaigns, acceptance speeches, casual brunches, etc, balanced out by marketing weeping ‘people do not like SecUnits! we can NOT advertise ourselves as the preferred serial for serial killers!’ crossed with that one extremely paranoid dude in accounting going ‘shutupshutup it can and will hear you and it can and will find you and it can and will kill you stoptalkingaboutit.’ the studio allocating a 5% budget increase for next season instead of the planned 5% budget decrease just—just in case. the odd relief the secondary love interest’s actor feels: ‘well when the robot revolution comes i’ll be one of the last to die’. the odd nervousness the primary antagonist actress feels: ‘it knows this is fiction right? it’s not mad at me, right?’ One of the writers who had been increasingly phoning it in over the last few years suddenly quitting drinking and turning their life around because their work has meaning dammit their work has MEANING.

alright so people learn to express themselves through observation, right? it’s one of the reasons facial expressions and perception there of vary country to country, why people might end up more expressive/stoic depending on your parents/guardians pattern of behavior. and murderbot didn’t acculturate itself watching people around it, it hates watching real people. murderbot developed it’s sense of self watching soap operas. tens of thousands of hours of soap operas. We already know it’s face is painfully easy to read, and while murderbot attributes it to not having practice controlling it’s expression without the benefit of armor:

Then she added, “You know, you can stay here in the crew area if you want. Would you like that?” They all looked at me, most of them smiling. One disadvantage in wearing the armor is that I get used to opaquing the faceplate. I’m out of practice at controlling my expression. Right now I’m pretty sure it was somewhere in the region of stunned horror, or maybe appalled horror.  Mensah sat up, startled. She said hurriedly, “Or not, you know, whatever you like.”  I said, “I need to check the perimeter,” and managed to turn and leave the crew area in a totally normal way and not like I was fleeing from a bunch of giant hostiles.

I would argue that it’s not just lack of practice being neutral—due to it’s particular set of formative experiences, it’s default facial expressions are, in human terms, almost absurdly overexaggerarated. That look of horror is the same one the sanctuary moon terraforming supervisor had when she discovered her twin sister was sleeping with her second husband, and they were both planning on framing her for the death of the colony representative.

My #1 post of 2022

There is — god I don’t know how to put this — there is something profound and tragic and senseless in the fact that the disappointment I feel in JK Rowling so closely mirrors the disappointment Harry and the rest of us felt for his role models. Dumbledore saved the world, Dumbledore was manipulative. Snape was cruel, Snape protected Harry. The Marauders bullied, the Marauders loved. 

Rowling’s failure of empathy and the hurt she’s inflicting cuts so deep because I feel immense, inescapable love for the world she gave us all. How can I still love what comes from someone hateful? How can I stop? If I continue to sing praises of her art does that make me hateful?

Stories are important, especially the stories we’re told as children. They shape our character, they form the framework of how we understand the world, they do. And Harry Potter was the story, it can not be understated, and those of you who feel the same don’t need me to explain. And now when I lean on that to understand this sorrow I’m left with a recursive sort of remorse.

It’s a very raw and painful feeling.

Film Fast Review #014:

(BluRay Version mit 5.1 HTS Sound)

Story: Eine dänische Familie macht Urlaub in der Toskana und freundet sich mit einer niederländischen Familie an, die sie einige Monate später für ein Wochenende zu sich nach Hause einlädt. Daraufhin erleben sie ein alptraumhaftes Wochenende.......

MakeUp / CGI / Computereffekte: Da es sich hierbei um ein Horrordrama handelt, ist das MakeUp einfach gehalten und hebt sich erst am Ende des Filmes mit Dreck, Blut und einem Splattereffekt ab was dabei sehr authentisch aussieht und dieses nicht als MakeUp aussehen lässt. CGI / Computereffekte gibt es in dem Film nicht.

Bild: Glasklar, selbst an den dunkelsten Nachszenen. Von grellen Sonnenschein bis tiefste Nacht über schummriges Zimmerlicht ist alles vertreten und weist kein Bildrauschen auf.

Musik / Soundeffekte: Durch die orchestrale Musik die schon am Anfang die Filmrichtung vorgibt und mit viel Tubas und Posaunen durchzogen ist, drückt diese ganz schön ordentlich. Die Musik bewegt sich im Film über klassisches Akapella über Autoradio- und Kassettendecksound bis hin zur druckhaften, psychischen Orchestermusik.

Fazit: Speak no Evil (2022) ist ein Film der weh tut und einen sprachlos zurücklässt. Der physische und psychische Druck in dem Film steigert sich immer mehr und lässt einem das Ende nur schmerzhaft miterleben. Einziges Manko ist aus meiner Sicht die Laufzeit von nur 97 Minuten incl. kompletten Abspann sowie 1-2 offene Fragen, die jeder für sich herausfinden muss. Ein unglaublich intensiver Psychotrip !!!!!!

Meine Bewertung: 9,5 von 10

It Was the Best of Art, It Was the Worst of Art!

Decided to do a little look at my past four years of ArtFight, and picked out what I thought were my best and worst attacks each year, in hopes of seeing if both categories got better over the years. Worst will always be on the left/top, best will always be on the right/bottom.

ArtFight 2021 (Team Cyberpunk):

Left belonged to NexusCryptid | Right belonged to Fayesephone Commentary: My first year, I definitely made strides between the worst piece and the best piece ^^''' This was back in my 'color all the linework except the outer lines' phase. Both of the backgrounds could use some work, but overall I'm happy with posing/movement in both! Unfortunately, the face and proportions of the worst piece are what landed it in last.

ArtFight 2022 (Team Wither)

Left belongs to Flat-san | Right belonged to photinus Commentary: Second year, still making similar mistakes and making similar strides! For reference, the worst piece you're seeing here was after an initial correction. I was also at the time having trouble with coloring lineart due to some issues with my workflow. Also baggy pants will forever be my enemy. As for the best piece, I loved the way I used color and posing, and it had a decent background! Was still doing the 'black outlines on the outside' thing.

ArtFight 2023 (Team Vampire)

Left belongs to PeterPandora | Right belongs to eryxerite Commentary: I would say things definitely got better this year! Finally moved on to coloring all the lineart, and the fact that the left is my worst piece I think is a significant improvement (suit pants continue to be an enemy, but the derpiness of the face and the anatomy of the right hand... oy.) The best piece, in comparison, went through multiple revisions until I was finally happy with it, and I was so proud of it that I downloaded it to my phone and looked at it multiple times a day for like. A while. The shading really works, and I love what I did with the tears, fabric, and crystal hair!

ArtFight 2024 (Team Seafoam)

Top belongs to GhostKiwi | Bottom belong to Lunarah Commentary: This year was my favorite year of ArtFight so far -- I did less attacks than any previous year but still got a higher point total than any previous year! This was also the first year that I consistently also shaded the colored lineart (which was just copy/pasting the shading from the base colors onto the colored lineart lol). With the worst piece, I was happy with the background, but I think the scaling of the character to the background was off, the face was wonky, and I was largely unhappy with the way I did the hair crystal reflection onto the skin. I also could've chosen a better pose, I think, when taking the background into account. As for my best piece, this piece (originally three separate attacks) certainly takes the cake as my most elaborate and time-consuming attacks ever! The shading, hair, posing, and lighting all fucked HARD. My only regret is that I couldn't get a consistent style across all five characters, since each individual character was drawn separately from the others and then combined. Overall takeaway: I think I need to get better at being consistent with style. And, glaringly, side angled faces are my biggest weakness. I need to bone up on that before next year, methinks. And I still think I have a ways to go with improving on clothing folds. Nevertheless, I'm very happy with my growth over the past four years, and I hope to grow more next July!!

If you made it this far, thank you for taking the time to read my little self-reflective musings. Also, if you noticed anything else in these pieces that you think could use some work, I would welcome constructive criticism! No assholery obvi please.

TMNT: The Last Ronin by Kevin Eastman, Peter Laird & Tom Waltz

"There are people, creatures, teachers, warriors, heroes, and legends..."

So there I am, 38-years-old, crying over a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comic book. Yikes.

But hey, who can really blame me? I've loved these characters for damn-near the entirety of my 38 years. And hell, at six, I didn't just want to be like Michelangelo, I straight-up wanted to be Michelangelo. So to get to experience a send-off for these characters that's as emotionally fine-tuned and executed as The Last Ronin was a bittersweet treat. Furthermore, the action is chaotic fun despite a slightly underwhelming villain, and the artwork is immersive, bringing this futuristic look at the TMNT universe to life with ample grit. It's not quite perfect, but its closer than I'd ever thought I'd get to experience.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need more, so it's time for The Last Ronin - Lost Years .

9/10
