Magnus out! *sick guitar riff plays!!!!*
So you're telling me that a magical kid that loves to draw and a cute animal sidekick gets separated from his parents and locked away with a parental figure in a cloak, that we later find out is evil. Leaves confinement and taken and shown the world in by a sarcastic, orphan, theif with wanted posters who then finds the magic of Christmas or whatever and they kiss and shit. AND YOU'RE TELLING ME that's not Tangled but in fact an unemployed rat bastard and a redundant fish.
I overworked it but I still like it! I like the composition I might do another version more refined and larger scale. I like the glacé the money and the lighting on the hair those turned out better than I expected given how loose I was being.
Tried to do subtle nod to gillion losing a hand with the wave dividing his wrist.
With his destiny being so tied to moon tried to show his perception of it shattering. It being the light source of the piece show that his ‘guiding light’ is false or broken.
and then because of that I tried to blend him in with the waves because his own identity is being lost due to the discovery of the lies he was told, now being pulled along towards the trials still without really a choice.
idk if these are reaches and come across in the comp but they were the intentions.
Hope you enjoy and have a lovely rest of your day! 🌜
I love the visual of lamplight in the snow in UPP so I wanted to try it and for quick sketches I think I did ok!
I love the most recent episode of UPP! [Spoilers below]
Acting/ immersion:
I love everyone's acting in it! I felt like everyone was very in character more than we've seen before. In riptide they're all in character and very good at it, but I think there being the higher stakes with the encounters being harder and the mystery elements I think the players are more immersed because like their characters they are scared and in the dark.
I think also this story even though having magical aspects feels very human; the relationship dynamics between families, kids sneaking out, small town gossip, grief these are all elements based in reality that we can connect to. [even though it canonically takes place on mars or some shit idk I haven't watched PD in a long time]
Bizly's acting:
Bizly was TERRIFYING my timbers were shivering! Especially in the house when he was talking about god AND AT THE END that whole sequence of him cutting his hand, the lights flickering, the sound design, him lighting the match, dropping it and then the lights and sound cutting out before he says:
«The forest becomes darker than it ever has been. You hear the sounds of branches begin to move. You here the trees begin to shake.»
I tell ya my branches were shaking.
Scenes/tone:
There is such a good balance between horror and humour in the show, it really feels like kids that have just seen terrible things, supporting each other and coping with small jokes rather than being comedic reliefs all the time. They really have the trauma sink into there characters and affect them and not just brush it off which I really like.
I really like the scene where Lui leaves and its just Will and Norah left, they make a couple jokes, check in on each other, we have the comedic scene with the porn on the computer, the phone ringing, a couple jokes again nd then the worry about Isaac and Lui. That sequence tonally I think is very well balance.
I also thought the cutting between the conversation between mr Abrams and Will sneaking into the basement was so cool!
I really want to animate/illustrate so many scenes!
Sorry if that didn't make any sense I'm a bit delirious right now.
Anyone in Edinburgh I am selling in person Polaroid sketches of you!! 🫵 You the viewer!!! Along with some other prints on the 9th for £1. [Need to double check the location]
Would you want to come along? [even if you’re not in Edinburgh/can’t make it still let me know if you think it would be cool 👉👈 I want to gauge interest.]
Testing out style with a little doodle of the loml
I feel like William doesn't like taking off his hoodie but he doesn't seem to hesitate when Norah is cold...strange.
experimenting with style and I really like how her face came out, I think I might make a UPP comic with this style but idk what about so please give me some suggestions!
Have a lovely rest of your day! 🌷
P.S.
UPP EmpGra CF:1 spoilers below cut
[Time Stamp: 2:00:01]
When William says "maybe it's just a dad who wants his son back." and it's a shot of him sat alone with the empty chair of Isaac who just got dragged into the woods by his father, that hurt man. On top of that later in PD we know William died and moved away from his family who if I remember right are also not in close contact with their other son David Williams brother. Isaac is gone, so is his father, his mother feels like he is losing him, William will be isolated from everyone soon after his death and his parents lost both of their sons.
Dunno if that made sense, I haven't finish PD nor have I watched in a while but this is just what I remember.
Was in a William drawing mood mainly because I had drawn him before. Second image is some hair tests for him CAUSE I SUCK DOOKIE AT DRAWING HAIR FORGET HANDS, FORGET THE OTHER EYE, HAIR SUCKS! I love the little headshots I did of Norah, Louis and Isaac
For some reason I imagine William as either the shortest of them or the lankiest mf.
I rewatched the episodes again and Norah and Will are so cute together, I imagine one of the them has a like a tiiiinnnny little teen crush on the other.
Unfitness Protection Program 'Empty graves' CF:1 spoilers
I swear to god if William has died and doesn't know it but finds evidence of it and the reason he leaves deadwood is because he doesn't want his friends/family to realise and them to face a bout of madness and it make him go into a frenzy and try and kill them. Sorry no commas I'm distraught.
I can’t stop thinking about just HOW MANY moments Chip and Gillion have had together. So many emotional, tragic talks with each other, genuinely incredible but also the gayest shit I’ve ever heard.
VAGUE SPOILERS for up until EP. 124
“You picked me up, you made me mean something. Let me do this for you.”
“If I could pick anybody in the world it’s you”
“I could’ve done it. That thing never would’ve escaped, but all I could think about, I was gonna lose you if I did it.”
“Enough for who? Because it’s enough for me.”
“If I had to do it all over again, I know I’d make the same choice.”
“I didn’t believe in destiny until I met you.”
Do you see what I mean
I’m not delusional THIS IS JUST OUT THERE. With PLENTY MORE I’m sure.
UPP William Wisp who dresses exactly like slimecicle does to play him. Band tees, earrings, eyeshadow, fingerless gloves. Chains and rings. Canonically an emo bisexual teenager. Dresses the part loudly because in case you haven’t noticed, he’s #weird. He’s a #weirdo. He doesn’t ~fit in~ and so on.
PD William Wisp who cycles between a few identical pairs of black jeans and plain black hoodies. No jewelry, no makeup. His tastes haven’t actually changed at all. He’s just been conditioned to believe that given what he is now, drawing attention to himself only gets the people around him hurt
DARE I SAY i am more proud of this one than the last?!?!?!
HC that William was more grunge while alive with warm but still desaturated colours and then became emo when he jumped from the top rope. [I use emo and grunge loosely you get what I mean]
Also super inspired by @fishieguyy band AU and colours, you’re sick as hell!
Go watch their animation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4tEPwb2zhJU
I can’t rememember if canonically there was something about them playing instruments or being in a band, I swear there’s something floating in the cortex back there.
Had a blast making this! I’m trying to learn more rendering processes and I AM SO PROUD OF THIS ONE, I’M ACTUALLY IMPROVING! WELCOME TO FULL BODY AND FULL RENDER TOWN! POPULATION: ME! So hyped for the new U.P.P. ep on Saturday, gonna be my little treat for finishing my essay!! 💪🦵✍️
🚨Wiwi Wisp alert!!!!🚨🔦📼🐺🌒🌌💙🩵🤍 [SO HYPED FOR THE UPCOMING U.P.P. CCASE FILES!]
Graphite pencil, acrylic brush pens and Posca pens, red fine liner.
PROCESS: Ref, sketch, main focus colour, outer colour, outline, hatching.
Used reference of myself loosely but that does mean William has been subjected to British lips.
I don’t know how I feel about this one, I wanted to experiment with colour but unsure if the green and back fits with his hair or if I should have stuck with a warmer colour. The hair was a fucking bitch. Was originally gonna do it like my hair but that wasn’t very emo and idk if he would have suited the mullet.
Idk if you guys are interested in the process but I like showing it so I put it just in case.
could have worked it a little more but I felt like I began over working it so decided to stop
Hope you enjoy and have a lovely rest of your day!!! 🌻
