I just wanted to doodle some of the more impactful moments for me- Simon's rageful screaming as he bangs on the controls, his pathetic apology to Ava, the ICONIC blood splattering on his face, his heartbreaking whimpers as he accepts his death, and him losing his sanity from all the faceless voices from the radio,,,
I've got some more lighthearted doodles coming up next :3c
(keep reading = more ramblings of my love for this movie <3)
Um yeah ok so like- INSTANT favorite movie.
I'm not even really a huge Markiplier fan- I watched a few of his videos here and there since I was a kid, but never been an actual subscriber. Nonetheless, I watched his gameplay of Iron Lung and was excited to hear he was making a movie adaptation! I never had much interest in his other film projects, but had a feeling this would be much more up my alley- and my GOD,,, when I tell you I cried and grieved so much from this movie,,,
First of all- the atmosphere??? If you can't tell from the other fandoms I'm in (John Wick, Alien, Predator, Hellsing, Black Butler, DOOM, etc.) I LOOOOOOOVE gritty gorey bloodbaths and the vengeful wrathful souls behind them. The rusty old ship felt so isolating and claustrophobic, yet so familiar and homey given my other interests. It was just so METAL.
But secondly??? Um??? The quiet rapture??? It's suuuuuch a haunting and frankly existentially horrific concept as a deep deep lover of space. Not to get too personal, but the celestial bodies, especially the stars, are so near and dear to me that I literally pray to them instead of a god. So to imagine a universe where they all just suddenly disappear for seemingly no reason???? It would be worst than death to me, and it's just where the story begins.
Simon was such a loveable character, and I found the long silent minutes with him just mumbling to himself so personal and endearing. Something about Mark's acting makes him so easy to insert yourself into and made the movie that much more emotional.
I've got more to say in later posts but yeah- BEST MOVIE OF THE YEAR. It was so unbelievable in theaters and I can't wait to watch it over and over in my home when it comes out on dvd <3
😗 Sooo no art lately- I've been in the process of moving to a new place, and I also didn't draw that much during the winter to build up a long lasting queue (hehe oops)
But I think I've also decided to just post whenever I have art with no real set goal in mind! I liked setting goals, and hoped to grow my page enough to make some commissions to help support my family- but it just slowly weakens my creative process and I haven't had a commission in about 7 years so I think I'm done trying.
So expect possibly fewer but hopefully more heartfelt art in the future :3 Idk when I'll be back but hopefully as soon as we get settled in our new place! I already have some fanart that needs to be finished, so it shouldn't take too long.
I think I'll also be doing more bloggy writey posts like this!! Even on my main blog, which I normally just use to dump all my reposts, I might post more about my other hobbies which each have their own turn taking over my life 😋 I'm pretty chronically offline, but I always imagined having a virtual diary of sorts-
Anywho! Rambling done, just wanted to give a little update on where I've been and what's been going on! :3 💕
