Wanted to practice doing turnarounds (in this case a semi one). Wanted her head to resemble a strawberry as weird as that sounds (I embodied it through her head shape/freckles/hair). Her first dress was the OG design but I did two others, polka dots are probably the best one
Hey guys I drew a Nicole last night it’s cool or whatever idk I like it I promise I’ll post more art this year
But in seriousness heres the problem of remaking an animated film like The Lion King in live action
In the original, the designs are very expressive and distinct, each character looks different/has different body language and facial features that display their character perfectly
Scar is sly and cunning, so his mane, body, movements, and expressions all match that perfectly. His animation during the line “Why if it isn’t my big brother....” comes to mind
Whereas Mufasa is respectable and powerful but wise, hence he’s always upright, has a powerful build and thicker mane, and can easily go from looking stern af to looking friendly and calm.
The stellar voice cast also played a part in this
In the live action trailer, There’s no emotion in the characters faces, all their expressions look the same to me, even when they’re in peril or emotional distress
Particularly at 1:00 when Scar tells Simba to leave, and Simba has a normal ass lion expression whereas in the original he was clearly crying and scared
Or I can’t even tell what they’re expressing because they look like normal ass animals. That’s boring!
A film like The Lion King does not work in live action, nor do most of the live action remakes Disney is churning out.
...and it’s probably gonna make like a billion dollars cause of course it will and “OMG That Movie was my childhood and Beyoncé is in it squeeeeee!” -_-
One last post before halloweens completely over 🎃🎃🍂🍂🍁
Well if that’s settled, may I have this dance?🌙
Ok but something that really struck out to me in Free Churro was Butterscotch telling young BoJack that after seeing “A Dolls House” (WHICH IS BASED OFF OF IBSEN BTW) Beatrice locked herself in the bedroom to LOUDLY SOB. After seeing in Season 4 how her father messed her up so much and permanently scarred her to not cry or show any kind of “womanly emotion”, that movie must have REALLY done something to her to actually make her not just cry but sob hysterically.
