When my Dad traveled from his home town in Syria to Bournemouth, UK to learn English, he LOVED this show. I feel as though had it been released today, there will be certain people who would have found this racist. My Dad thought otherwise. He didn't find it racist nor was he offended in any way.

You might say, “Well, maybe it’s because there wasn’t a Syrian on the show.”

Maybe so. But my Dad empathized with a lot of the characters, as he was also struggling with learning a new language and fitting in with other cultures. Which is what made this so entertaining for him.

Sadly, it’s hard to find a show like this, nowadays. In 2016 it would be labelled hate-speech and banned, perhaps.

Maybe that’s just me speculating.

What happened to the good old 80's?

Lots of bad memories with this game.

Hahaha, I was actually having an Alex Jones marathon last night, and this is the cherry on top! “New world order scuuuum!”

Okay, now I finished my Revenge of the Sith trailer mashup. :)

Just something I wanted to do with that Batman v Superman trailer music which was epic.

Star Wars Rebels “Shroud of Darkness” Concept Art

[tenkan-blog]

Concept art rocks. :)

I’m not sure if I wanna finish editing this trailer or not.

Being a final year media student, I kinda got my hands full on other projects. But I heard the Batman v Superman trailer music recently and just had to play around with it. I woke up this morning telling myself I have to make a Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith trailer collab with that soundtrack.

The trailer is unfinished and unlisted, so this link is the only public one. I had my fun with it, so you can too. :)

Time for a new game. :)

Spooky scary Saturdays send shrivels down your spine!

I’m not afraid, though, pfft…

[tenkan-blog]

Why is a 2D game too scary for me?

Force Fridays is now on!

After watching the Star Wars: Rebels finale, I thought I’d get back into Star Wars games. Wooh!

Hold up...’Scourge of Malachor’. That’s a KOTOR 2 reference.

Could that mean that...KOTOR 1-2 are canon now? Interesting.

Patience.

Written so easily, yet difficult to apply.

Honestly one of the most important things I can say I’ve learned as an artist is that if you feel like you’re really stagnating, that probably means you’re seeing problems in your work that you have never been able to see before, but you haven’t figured out how to fix them yet.

You’re not really stagnating

You’re understanding of drawing has moved beyond your current execution.

Once you have finished processing the problems you’re suddenly seeing, you’re likely to correct them and suddenly make a huge breakthrough in your drawing.

Don’t push yourself, either. Sometimes you have to remove yourself from a problem temporarily to solve it, just don’t give up drawing altogether.

TL;DR feeling like your drawing is stagnating/getting worse means your eye is improving, and your hands are likely to catch up soon.

This can be applied to many forms of art. Great advice.
