I honestly wasn’t expecting to have Hohenheim become one of my faves, but here we are.

Here are some Threadworlds character design sketches/studies from December, exploring how to draw, pose, and emote with these roo-like people. Currently, I’m getting deeper into the layouts (“tight roughs” or “loose cleans”… I don’t know, some sort of oxymoronic style of drawing) for book one. When I get a little further down the line, I’ll share bits of those too. It has been a lot of fun trying to learn and playing with the comics language, stumbling into all the surprises and new creative possibilities offered by this medium, and figuring out the puzzle of each page and spread’s flow. I’m finally feeling like I’ve truly embarked on this new journey, and my homeland is no longer in sight behind me… it’s refreshing.

My buddy read an article about octopus intelligence. It was feeding time, and the handler dumped some shrimp into an octopus’ tank. Then he went into another room and sat at his desk.

A while later, a shrimp was tossed onto his desk.

The octopus, upon finding one bad shrimp in the lot, had grabbed it, escaped its tank, crossed the hall, and threw the expired shrimp at its caretaker. Not only does this showcase their problem-solving capabilities, but also that it could have escaped at any time. It just broke out this time to chuck an off shrimp in indignation at its handler. That’s not just intelligence, that’s a human-like reaction. Kinda make you wonder exactly how smart these guys can be…

I went to the aquarium once and we had a tour and we walked past the octopus tank and it was duct taped shut so I asked why and the guy was like. “Well, we had a problem before because these fish were disappearing randomly at night and we had no idea why. Turns out the octopus had memorised the night guards rounds and would creep out of its tank, crawl across the floor to the fish tank, have a little snack and be back in its own tank with the lid shut before the guard came back.” they are super smart

I love octopuses so, so much.

I am both delighted and FUCKING TERRIFIED.

Once I went to the aquarium where they had a baby pacific red octopus in a tank. I had gone there to work on a few real life sketches, obviously I wanted to do one of an octopus. So I kinda just kneeled in front of the tank, and started sketching. The octopus didn’t mind, he sat happily. Then, 5 minutes later, he started moving to the front of the tank, where I was. This tiny octopus faces me directly and starts posing. I don’t know how other to explain it but he started curlung his tentacles in this really graceful way then wouldn’t move for a few minutes. Then again, a new pose. That tiny cute motherfucker knew I was drawing him.

I’ve maintained for years that Avatar: The Last Airbender had some of the best animation/visuals that I’ve ever seen! But man, Legend of Korra went above and beyond! So, for the sake of appreciating how far Bryke and the amazing crew have come in 10+ years, here are some comparisons:
