Expanded Metal Mesh is a grid structure with uniform mesh and high strength

Expanded Metal Mesh is a mesh product made of metal steel plates. It uses a stretching process to process metal steel plates to form a grid structure with uniform mesh and high strength. Steel plate tensile mesh is usually made of materials such as stainless steel, aluminum alloy or carbon steel, and has excellent corrosion resistance and strength.

Introduction to Drawing Metal Sonic

Texture-less 3D models are from @/mellow-elbow 's massive folder of Sonic character models and reference photos. (And I love you for that, I use it a lot) Which are models ripped from the games. All other photos used here are from the IDW comics (Mostly issue #12) and other official sources.

➟Link to Folder ➟Metal Sonic Folder

Machines/computers are pretty and I wanted expand my skills, and am fixated on Sonic. So I found myself drawing Metal Sonic lately, and feel like sharing my learning experience on drawing this fucker since I found it interesting. I also needed to do something with these references because I used so many.

Obviously, do whatever you want. I am not going to police people on how they should be drawing a fictional robot. I mean hell, I don't draw him game accurate either and am still learning. I was interested in the details and robotics of it all to get a grasp of how he is drawn and be messed with.

From the references alone, his designs are more complicated and simplified between each artists and modellers.

Once removing all the overwhelming details, Metal boils down to very basic human anatomy. Or more accurately: he is a ball jointed doll. Think of how you can move the limbs of a Monster High or Barbie doll, it's similar.

To me, it seems that the joints where he can pivot at 360° are the shoulders, hip, neck, and risks. The elbow and knee areas are able to swing front and back. (Not sure if that needs to be said but here it is).

Pauldrons are able to move too. (Think this is the most obvious but I need to remind myself this)

Break down the hands into a basic drawing skeleton, a slightly curved rectangle for the palms and 3 joints for the fingers. Then draw the rest of the details from there since he has no muscles or fat.

There is a ball joint at the base of the thumb. That itself is a huge joint on the hand.

Fingers are drawn kinda skeletal.

Dude's pretty flat chested, and so his torso section goes inwards.

A lot perspective will come into play when drawing him in different angles, especially those where body parts mesh into one another. Keep in mind that he can't squish like someone with flesh.

Can't remember where I heard this, but the design philosophy for each metal character is that everything on them has a function. Again do whatever you want, but if you want to make a game accurate design then keep this in mind. (It's not the case for Neo, but dude is allow to have a sense of fashion)

are there any neopets/colors/combinations thereof you have a really strong opinions about but haven’t had the chance to review?

(I'll do Peophins for this one as I feel like I like them more than most and there's no requests in for them right now.)

I'm always amazed that Peophins aren't more popular than they are. They are one of the most beautiful 'pets by far—Neopets as a whole have pretty stocky, chunky anatomy, but Peophins are abnormally thin proportionally, and surprisingly anatomically accurate to real horses compared to something like the Uni. This gives them a natural elegance, which a lot of colours build upon.

Peophins are also really strong conceptually, taking inspiration from mythologies like the hippocampus. Even if you don't know what that is, the mere idea of an aquatic horse with a tail instead of back legs and fins along their ears is a very unique and easy design to grasp. Little things like the plates on their snouts also add to the uniqueness of the design.

The only thing that's bad about Peophins (other than the fact that underwater Neopets like them don't get much NPC rep) is that their basic colours are kind of terrible. They have the base color and yellow accents, but then turn around and have a really off-putting second color for the mane and a random green spot on their forehead gem, creating a mess of a palette. It would've been much better if the green gem was either yellow or the base color, and the mane was a neutral lighter tone. Thankfully, most other Peophin colors fix this issue.

Peophins benefited heavily from conversion, as their old art was extremely dated. In addition to overall art quality, the anatomy was also improved to be less lumpy and things like the ears and mane were improved proportionally.

Favorite Colours:

Tyrannian: Tyrannian's caveman-like designs are not something I'd usually refer to as pretty, but the Peophin knocks it out of the park. The dark streak down the back and the underbelly combined with the fur makes it look a lot more like a prehistorical seal-esq creature, and little details like the mask being made out of stone are perfect. The mane is also quite pretty and adds a much needed pop of color.

Both the UC and converted versions are great, though I'll give the UC a minor edge for having a slightly more unique shape to the ears/fins and having the tail elements be more visible.

Royal: What I like about royal Peophins is that they take the idea of the Peophin's head plate and gem and expand on it, both by wrapping it around the ears to make a kind of crown and by adding lots of complimentary jewelry. I also like how the robes flow nicely with the body and make logical sense for an underwater creature. Both the royal girl and boy are good and match each other well, though between the two I do like the royal girl a bit more just because of the lovely palette.

Stealthy: Slightly unusual for a ninja colour but still very cool, the stealthy Peophin feels like it was also made with the water in mind. Lose-fitting cloth ninja robes are replaced with water-friendly mesh, and there's a bunch of metal holding bands that compliment the usual head plating. I also think that it's neat that they have a tie around their mouth similar to the reins of a normal horse. Also, the unclothed base, while much simpler, is also pretty nice.

BONUS: I'm normally of the opinion that faerie pets are best with markings, whether they be swirls, layers of color, or speckles, so that they're not just a normal Neopet with wings attached. However, while I would've loved to see some light pink swirls around the hooves and tail of the faerie Peophin, it still looks really nice. This is mostly because the lavender base is complimented by pink and silver accents, making it different than a basic Peophin.

Also, the UC/styled version is stunning; the pose is super fluid, the shading is really good, and the slightly different, more defined anatomy in the face really adds something. The converted version is still nice enough, but the wings are a bit too small and washed out color-wise, having lost the yellow dots in them.

They also screwed up the wing shape a bit; it's easier to see in the original Battledome poses, but the wings are one single wing that should run down the back rather then overlapping. They only overlap in the styled art because of the perspective on the tail that isn't present in the converted version.

Kamikaze Girls by Takemoto Novala

“I’m so glad you’ve found such a good friend, Momoko. I was worried, you know, about how you’d get along with kids here in the countryside, since you’ve been a city girl all your life. You’re lucky you’ve found a friend you have so much in common with.” “I have nothing in common with Ichigo, and she isn’t even my friend, anyway.” “Really? But the two of you are always dressed the same way.” Hello?! Excuse me?! Can you possibly be serious?! What in god’s name do you mean, Ichigo and I are dressed the same way?! I wondered if Grandmother was getting senile, and felt a bit worried for her. “You both seem to enjoy looking very festive.” Oh. So that’s what she meant. For an old lady like my grandmother, Ichigo’s gaudy, tasteless Yanki clothing and my adorable, elegant Lolita clothing both looked simply theatrical, and were registered as being more or less the same.

Momoko is rather snobbish and solely devoted to wearing Sweet Lolita clothes from brand Baby the Stars Shine Bright while reflecting the lifestyle she believes goes with it. Particularly at odds in the Shimotsuma countryside where her grandmother lives after the Loser, her father, fled there tied to organized crime and counterfeit designer goods. Ichigo, a Yanki and part of the Ponytails youth gang, has a mouth as loud as her tricked out moped and knows little unless it involves motors and sheet metal. She has next to no clue about the Versace clothes she’s looking for, what knockoff means, or that a woman biker could be capable of sexual violence too. Yet under the surface there is a surprising parallel in ethos and these two teenagers will slowly become unlikely friends.

As Japanese pop culture expanded its reach fashion was part of the wave too, including Lolita fashion. A street style and subculture born in the 1970s taking inspiration from Western motifs of Rococo to Victorian and even more modern romantic ideas of France and British punk. Growing up around this, Takemoto Novala is an eccentric figure with some similarly eccentric ideas. Still in his career he has made a noteworthy mark on the Lolita fashion subculture. (While he has also professionally suffered some hiccups due to drug possession.)

A big deal was the live-action adaptation in 2004 of his 2002 bestselling novel Shimotsuma monogatari, given the odd moniker Kamikaze Girls in English. Directed by Tetsuya Nakashima, starring Fukada Kyoko and Tsuchiya Anna, and featuring twists and an aesthetic of its own meshing mediums. Best described as a fun film, it both affectionately presents and pokes a bit at its subjects. Followed by translations including other various writing by Takemoto (who work has also been endorsed by writer Yoshimoto Banana) becoming something of a cult classic.

The novel is still one of my go-to tomes for depicting the Lolita fashion lifestyle. Momoko a heroine for her free spirit. A character that comes to mind for a lot of Lolitas. Although that does not mean Momoko is not a character who says some things I would view in a more askance way or shake my head at. (Also, the quote falsely attributed to Marie Antoinette “Let them eat cake!”, or « Qu’ils mangent de la brioche. » if we’re being a stickler, is reproduced.) In reality there are many ways of wearing Lolita and being a Lolita up to cultivating a whole lifestyle. The clothes and what those mean also changing over time. If you have got the spirit, you can rock it in a field to a formal venue. Likewise gotten from a humble home sewing table to big city boutique. Often evoking youth and the feminine, age and gender should not hold one back either. (It hasn’t for Takemoto.) Personally, Gothic Lolita too is part of what got me into fashion design.

Twenty and some years later I still feel that blooming feeling in my chest over the clothes, book and film. With trends looking back to the 1990/2000s now, old school Lolita is back too. As Takemoto has said, “Lolita’s not dead.”

Kamikaze Girls by Takemoto Novala is available in English, translated by Akemi Wegmüller, in print hardcover from Shojo Beat

The live-action film is available in Japanese with English subtitles on BD Region A from Discotek or Region B from Third Window Films
