Another sj comic art style study.

Wanted to use this panel's color palette for the artwork.

Ngl these studies helped a lot. Like I learned to focus more on the energy of a pose than perfect lines and use a limited palette to point the focus and use lighting color as a mood maker instead of stressing over whether it makes sense.

#ohhh this is sooo good🫶this is spot on to the comics style wowww

(*Calls out to the fog) Hey, anyone out here remember Samurai Jack??

#ohhh this is gorgeoussss #the color and textures are delightfullll

this is one of my absolute favorite background arts in samurai jack i adore its limited use of color and solid black, and the texturing and lines making up the brick its just completely pleasant. the shape of the moon hanging low and the dots of stars is delightful. i love how simple it is i love how the shape of the mountain is expressed by the curved tree line

#the specification of this episode evades me but it is the one with the worm and the fairy trapped by a gargoyle #and the metal eating family #samurai jack #my post #screencap #i wish i had the skilll to create art like this. which is art that conveys so much without abundance of detail #i overthink things a lot and i think that is why i am so continually enamored by samjack bc it is these grand scapes but once you really -#-look and study these artworks its very smart shape language and coloring and texturing #and it seems so large and grandiose i love the art of samjack so much im gonna stop rambling now byeee

so young, so bright is a 1955 japanese film directed by toshio sugie, its a very cute musical i just adore the actress/singer izumi yukimura performing here. i do not know the extent of the popularity of this film today, but one of my most naive beliefs is that someday a restoration or remaster of the film will be available because its a beautifully colorful and fun film through. i do enjoy this particular scene and revisit it often and if interested, i encourage listening to yukimura's songs as they are presently available on spotify. a good lot of her work are covers of classic early to mid century 'big band' songs multilingual between japanese and english so it is very accessible even with very little familiarity of the japanese language. she is just a delightful artist shes wonderful and this is an adorable musical number

a film which i think abt decently often is konstantin lopushansky's dead man's letters, a 1986 soviet film abt nuclear apocalypse its just an incredibly visceral and bleak film i adore

one of my absolute favorite films is akira kurosawa's throne of blood and what i really love about it, and especially because it is an adaption of macbeth, is its utilization of these front straight-on shots which seem to me like actors on a real physical stage presenting to an audience rather than a film and i just really adore this detail about it

#this is my favorite kurosawa film and also film of all time like number one this is it #akira kurosawa #macbeth #throne of blood #filmsjo #screencap #japanese cinema #filmblr

something i rly adore abt kurosawa's yojimbo is the composition, placement of actors especially the triangular angle of sanjuro up on the bell scaffolding. its just a very nice film, it is visually distinctive from kurosawa's earlier films in this time being that this was shot for widescreen presentation while earlier films, seven samurai, throne of blood, stray dogs etc were not
