Somebody is getting twatted with a Master Sword.
I have it on good authority that it's you.
Yeah, Miyazaki. It's all in the way he makes them move. I think, in keeping the characters simple, apart from making it eaiser to draw them a thousand and one times, it also makes it easier to identify with them. There's enough to give you a good sense of who they are, but not too much as to distract you and all the rest is conveyed through the way they move and speak. I suppose with comics being static, you need to be able to convey something just as dynamic without the movement so character needs to be embellished a bit more through the actual art. Or something. Maybe.
Still, I'm totally in love with the above picture right now and that sort of goes against what I just said.
Ireally haven't seen anything better at creating a beautiful, coherent world all of it's own...
Nintendo, maybe. But their medium and therefore methods for acheiving this are different. |
