Week 1 of @shepscapades 's Hermit Design Event ~!
Hermits but what if dnd
Rambling and non-group pics below
Cleo: Half-Orc Eldritch Knight
Mumbo: Tiefling Crown Paladin to Peace, Love and Plants
Gem: Circle of Swarms Elven Druid
Zedaph: Battle Smith Artificer Satyr
Cleo's a Half-orc cos green.... I'm very creative I know.. I had the classes in mind for the other 3 already and I figured the party kinda needs someone who can fight head on, so she's a fighter...and def not cos I wanted to draw her beefy. Mumbo's kinda there but he has a thing
He's a support paladin lmao. He just whacks them really hard with the blunt end until theyre low hp (the others finish them off so teeeeechnically he doesnt kill)
Bees !
Both allays belong to Zedaph but one is just attached to Cleo for some reason . Zed constantly looks like he came from an explosion . His clothes just has permanent splats on it.
And cos theyre all gamers they all have diamond tools/weapons!
Sbi postcard!!!
Clockers Family Dinner
i would like to talk abt how yuzuru tachikawa went OFF in storyboarding/directing the separation arc w/ the use of natural and artificial light on reigen.
we only see his face w natural light before opening s&s
and then after his fallout with mob, it’s only behind him.
his face becomes illuminated by only his laptop in his apartment
also after mob leaves him, the blinds in the office are closed compared to when he first started. this is the window that originally showed him the light. he is subconsciously shutting out that dream of “being somebody”
more under cut!!
the only exception to this rule is his convo w/ ekubo, who is the character he can be the most honest to.
when we get to the bar scene, it’s nighttime, so there’s ONLY artificial light. it’s framed similar to him looking out the s&s window, which was the last time he was able to live w/o the fake “psychic” title. except now, it’s lit blue instead of warmly.
he wants the same thing, but the second time is leading him to a path of self destruction: like a moth to a flame.
when we get to the Cancellation, he’s under studio lights and, later, camera flashes. the lights are brighter but his shadows are harsher. he’s being seen but in the worst way possible.
lastly, you’d expect sunlight to be on his face when mob tells him he’s a good person, but it stays in the shadows because reigen doesnt Say it. he hasnt Told mob hes a fraud. you can see the shadows creep into his face when he lifts his face. the good part of him is acknowledged
Main Characters: First Appearance vs. Final Appearance
Bonus:
Where does the blue light come from? Dont ask me...
