My Name is Max

Hey folks! :D

IT'S MAD MAX TIME! (again.)

Such a hella good movie and beside of the great story and characters I LOVE the editing of the movie, and the COLORS! It definitely deserved every oscar it got and probably even more <3  This movie is just too beautiful to look at <3 <3 <3
And so, in order to get better at Illustrator I created these two:

 

I'm so proud of the starry night skies and the war rig! XD
Maybe I'll get to do more like this in the future, if inspiration strikes again 8D
What do you think? U like the stuff you see?

However your opinion, have a rly nice weekend!

Ride eternal, shiny and chrome!

Mad Max:Fury Road ~ Valkyrie

Heyooo it'sa me, Naki again! :D

And yup, I actually did something I don't do often: FAN ART!
And of course, it's Mad Max: Fury Road fan art. Because it's the best freaking action movie in like, a decade? Or two? Okay, the last time I had the urge to watch a movie over and over again, it was Captain America: The Winter Solider, which is not that long ago. The motivation then was almost the same as now; a great story, cool, developed characters and awesome action*. And MM:FR is so good in all of these and even more. Like, I can't even remember when I saw that much kickass women in a movie?! I love Black Widow, but she stands kinda lonely between the other avengers**. And this has like, a bunch of warrior women in it, and I love every single one of them.

Especially Valkyrie!

She dosen't even have that much screentime, but gah, I think from the Vuvalini she's definitely my favorite, close followed from the Keeper of the Seeds. Hand to the heart, Furiosa is unreached on the top of everything, but Valkyrie is like, standing next to her on the ranking. And she really deserves more appreciation! >o<
I started out with a pencil sketch as always, and finished analog work with the ink version:

Now I think I could have put some more dirt in the ink version, kinda like the stuff in the background from the post before this one. But whelp, noted for the next time!

So, what do you think? Did you watched Mad Max: Fury Road? :D

Have a great time and a sunny weekend! <3 ^^

 * and an awesome soundtrack, great dialogues, great stunts, cool new characters, a great antagonist, FEELINGS, and, you get the idea.
**And I hated her arc in Age of Ultron. How can you fuck up a characterization that bad? Gnarf.

Captain America - Animation Video!! :D

SO!!

Hello dears, long time no see!
The last weeks were a little hard, bc the examination period is a little earlier here, and it's nearly OVER! :D and then the whole application stuff for an internship starts.... aaahhhhh AND WE WON THE WORLD CUP! YAY! :D

Anyways, we had to make a viral video for one of my courses - no further restraints, except it has to reach about 1000 views in a week - and bc I'm not doing any animation for my film class this semester, I decided to do a flash animation film, YAY! And because I'm a nerd, I made the new Captain America movie the topic of it XD (you'll find the vid on the bottom of this post! ;) )

So I started with some simple sketches ....
<--  like this

  .....and put some layers of lineart and color on top....

 like that -->

.....and at the end of the day*, after hours of drawing and trying to get the backgrounds that people would somehow recognize what scene that might be, I had results like this:

.... this...

....stuff that is more dramatic....

....and some stuff that is more fun XD.

Luckily I had a great help with all the animation stuff - thanks again for that, Jule! :D You're my saviour ;) AND WE GOT IT FINISHED, FINALLY!!

Share, leave a like or a comment, criticize or just enjoy! ;)

Have a nice day! :D

*It's just a phrase, we didn't made that thing in a day, more in like a couple of days without any (or with very little) sleep and with lots and lots of energy drinks and coffee intus... 8D

Headaces, technical things and Invincible again

Hi out there.

Yeah, so I spend nearly the wohle day with headaches. Headaches are bad for drawing.

So instead I picked my mouse into pieces, cause the left click kept on jamming. If you're like me, you always wanted to know how it looks inside that stuff we (nearly) every day use! 8D

Besides, the red arrow shows the cause of the problem, there is a not even one mm deep jag in the plastic. Damn sensitive technology! Trying to fix it with glue now, hope it works.... otherwise, new mouse than :B

But! I'm not going to leave you without showing you pictures again. Have some sketch at first!

Yap, Invincible fanart again. Viltrumites are just cool, but I want to see more of the females. There are so few of them! But they are so cool!
DAMN COMIC WHY DON'T YOU GIVE ME WHAT I WANT.

Colored version:

Copic on manga illustration paper.

I mean, they would be just so cool. DAMN cool.
And I kept imagining how the story would have gone, if Invincible's dad was his mum.... Are there au/genderswitch fanfic of that? Are there any fanfics to that comic?

Important questions keeping me awake ;D

Have a nice day/night/evening/morning (whatever time it is while you were reading this)

It's invincible! 8D

Hi out there! :D

Finally the whole stuff with portfolios is over for the moment... at least until the letters wether I've passed or not will reach me XD


So there is freeeeeeeee~ time now!



...and massive amounts of lazynes somehow. ;)

Time to read some comics instead of drawing stuff 8D
No sooner said than done! So I just re-read the first volume of the ultimate collection of Invincible.

And although I still think it's a great comic, while re-reading it over and over there's more and more stuff that bugs me.
First of all, why, why, WHY has the female main chara has to wear a pink outfit with a venus symbol on her chest? Seriously, we would have known without that she's a woman. It's kind of this OMG WE HAVE FEMALE SUPERHEROES HERE SO WE HAVE THEM TO BE SUPER GIRLY!!!-attiture, and I really can't stand that. It shouln't be such a great thing to have super heroines today. Heyoo out there, woman can wear normal chlothes, too! They don't have to be pink and girly!
(and her special powers sparkle in pink, too. What the fuck!)
Oh, and whoever told them to combine a pink outfit to red hair should be drowed in wall paint. ;)


I mean, would it have had any bad effect if they would have dressed Eve in green instad of pink?

Guess not. 8D
