i was super inspired by the ami thompson raya it’s just ever since man. my friends had to here my long convos about it and now, it’s spread here

here’s my concept of a druun monster as well as a small comic panel of my rendition of raya vs the druun.

for the druun, it’s a mixture of an assassin bug as well as the forest spirit’s final form from princess mononoke, as I believe druun would’ve been better represented as ancient beasts rather than mindless metaphors of hatred and evil, could’ve been a cool visual too. and clearly the concept artists knew it, as they made some of the best concept work I’ve seen for a Disney film-

OKKKKKKKK SOOO some of my friends (hello back @macbethz and @cyclopsboxhead ) were working on an elseworld version of the marvel universe, starting with creating our own rendition of specific character we wanted to expand upon. my friend (hello @macbethz again) worked a bit on Charles Xavier, creating a cool 60s psychedelic edge to the character that’s really cool and u should check it out-

for me, i had been developing Callisto, leader of the morlocks, for quite some, primarily interested in X-Men characters that border on under-utilized to really see how much life i can breathe into this character, and thus the former cryptid turned protector of the diabolized was born. through reading much of her material, as well as taking inspiration from other materials, such as The Walking Dead, God of War (generally greek/roman myth) and a whole lot of listening to Siouxsie and the Banshees, i created my own little version of her that would fit in nicely with my friends renditions of their characters .

born in the outskirts of new jersey, callisto was forced to run away at an early age for her own safety away from her family as her powers slowly manifested, her tentacles growing ever larger as she aged. her mutant abilities activated the moment she was born, as her x-gene kept her from dying at birth. over the course of her life, what seemed to be a "normal" and "passing" mutant soon faded as her hands and eventually arms grew to mutate into something else entirely, her whole body following suit. as she lived in the wilderness, she was forced to raise herself, adopting the life of the game she used to hunt with her father. over time, however, she started to scavenge for books, trinkets, etc. as she would create a small little home out in the wilderness, where she would soon learn the skills and advanced understanding of societies and cultures that would help her eventually form the morlocks.

not everythings ironed out but, i made her a long time ago and felt bad for not posting so. hereyago heres to posting more of her as i develop further-

watched this recently whilst on a ghibli film marathon and it never dawned on me as to how intense this film is in terms of stakes. it really is an epic, with such an engaging protagonist. one of my favorite films that I’ve slept on for years tbh + cool solarpunk

also here’s some sketches I did on the side from inspo lol

gotta use tumblr more man.

doodling a tree with @cyclopsboxhead taking a crack at sustainable art.

we were doodling at a garden, and I realized I didn’t have any materials. and so, I thought this would be a good opportunity to forage for materials; sticks, rocks, fallen flowers petals, wood chips, etc.

i found it extremely comforting and relaxing, painting a simple tree with a dear friend with materials from the very earth that many would simply walk over.

art can bloom from anything.

after I was finished, I simply left the materials back on the ground, to be absorbed by the ground and cycle.

here's another avatar academy character since i had trouble picking one to develop-

she was v much inspired by the swamp benders + swamp thing. really wanted to show that she was more creature and mythic like as a waterbender to make her really stand out, with plants literally living and growing on her as u can see--

[bloominisce]

THIS IS EGREGIOUSLY LATE but i wanted to post what i made when the avatar academy was accepting applications. Here was my character submission!! i was very obsessed with the concept of metalbending to really stand out, and the idea of telekinetically controlling metal knives was just pretty cool tbh. The layout was inspired by the last airbender concept art pages (:

what if your own mental manifestation of your dead evil brother possessed you and made you do unspeakable things. but hes still your big brother and you miss him.

dcdrawtober day 6 prompt is friends! so this is arguably for that. i couldn't get this hypothetical interaction out of my head because these guys actually make me crazy.

trying to get better at not being a perfectionist w comics and just posting stuff where im more focused on page composition but i still spent longer than expected on this lmao

jurassic park is trending (omg no fuckibg way????) and it got me thinkin about my undying love for the franchise, as well as my general love for those 90s universal movies. the ride at hollywood, the merch, and it’s general affect on pop culture.

and I have to say.

The franchise lost the moment it realized it could be a big movie monster franchise.

with a couple of exceptions, there was so much reverence in the way jurassic 1 handled the behavior and the nature of the dinosaurs, treating them as amoral creatures locked in turmoil as the park falls apart, and we are simply caught in the midst of the chaos.

jp2 doesn’t do too much disservice to the way the dinosaurs are treated, still being forces of nature. sure they don’t do much new or give a different perspective on the nature of theropods instead of instantly antagonizing them, but the hatchling plot was cool. also, we got that iconic scene at the end. you know the one.

it starts to get muddled with jp 3, with the entire climax hinging on the big battle between mama rex and the spinosaurus, with added elements of humor that serves to further demystify the dinosaurs, entering campier territory.

then came Jurassic world.

while Jurassic World no doubt reinvigorated interest, it was the nail in the coffin for the opportunity for Jurassic Park truly to come back the way it did. it was almost wwa, the way that dinosaurs were simply setup to showdown at the very end, teaching the audience since the third one that this was what you are to look forward to, along with your classic escape the dinosaurs plot. it truly sealed its fate as a blockbuster, answering genuinely interesting questions (ethics of cloning, whether they really are dinosaurs or simply monsters, etc.) and addressing interesting concepts (indominous, Feathered DINOSAURS DOMINION!!!!!!!) with such a juvenile attitude, merely meant to appeal to a “general majority” who (they assume [wrongly]) that simply want to see dinosaurs on the big screen. if you cater to a supposed audience, all you will be looking at is simply confirmation bias. Movies like Barbie prove that people are still interested in political, social and cultural rhetoric and systems being addressed and talked about in franchised media, and yet…

jurassic park can’t seem to take itself seriously anymore. they don’t even animate the dinosaurs very convincingly anymore.

but hey. atleast the new ride at universal Hollywood is good. little bit of pacing issues but, hey. better than the sorry state it was before

[bloominisce]

brilliant film. weird barbie needs more attention
