Brother photography's name

7 months, 1 1 giant skull illustration, popular all over the network!

French brothers are famous as a huge skeleton.

He is a lonely, gentle and lovely big guy.

One year after graduation, fans suck powder 57.2k!

This number is still growing steadily at the rate of 200+ per day.

Born in 1995, he did it by strength!

Bold and transparent colors, rich imagination

Healing brush strokes

That's why fans like Liu Dong.

He explained the four seasons on the tip of the pen.

It always seems to capture the most touching moments of each season.

This color! This atmosphere!

A year after graduation?

The color of healing reminds us of Studio Ghibli, who has brought us countless classic animation works. Liu Dong is really a Ghibli fan. The person he admires most is Grandpa Miyazaki Hayao!

Liu Dong: Don't ask why, because there are some days in a year when I want to paint Kiki.

He is an anime fan himself. Besides Ghibli's works, Liu Dong was also inspired by other Riemann's works.

"Your name" Fan

Many of Liu Dong's works reflect Japanese elements, and even his two sets of works have the flavor of oriental freehand brushwork.

Liu Dong's Personal Works

Food Story is also one of Liu Dong's favorite animated films.

"Food Story" fans

Perhaps influenced by food stories, Liu Dong also designed the role of a mouse.

Let's look at other characters in Liu Dong's works.

If you carefully observe Liu Dong's works, you will find that character design is not without a set of design ideas.

Using basic shapes, the outline is easy to understand. Every time these shapes are combined according to different needs, so that the emotional elements expressed by the characters are more abundant.

Match different props for different characters, so as to enhance the character's personality and enrich the background story. As we can see in the picture, Liu Dong uses knives, mountain cities and fans to match different roles.

Try more shapes. It is very important to know how body language expresses emotions. We can learn from many aspects: learning from movies, observing passers-by, looking in the mirror, taking some interesting posture photos and so on. Many character designers tend to exaggerate these body language with more obvious curves or shapes.

Besides, I don't know if you have noticed.

Liu Dong seems to have a soft spot for the back.

There is also a saying on the Internet that people who like to look at the back are thoughtful and imaginative, because the back often brings infinite reverie and goodwill to people.

Beautiful scenery is the characteristic of Liu Dong's works, but he is also trying to get out of his comfort zone and break through himself.

Liu Dong: I spent several months on this illustration, refining the characters and paying less attention to the scenery, which obviously put me out of my comfort zone. I hope to paint it in the style of magic gathering, but obviously I haven't reached that level of detail, but I am satisfied. I hope I can work with those excellent magic painters!

Liu Dong: For this illustration, I decided to challenge myself to take a reference photo with rich colors and more complicated perspectives. It's not easy, but I'm satisfied with the result. It is difficult to maintain a "realistic" and stylized color interpretation without adding too much texture.

Photography practice

Many excellent artists introduced by Wuhu do photo exercises every day, and I recommend this method here. It is easy to learn the composition of excellent photographic works and accumulate materials at the same time. A lot of practice may be boring, but solid basic skills are the source of progress.

Note: observation and analysis are more important in the process of photo practice. You can try to process and refine the photo elements and integrate them into your personal style. Don't copy for the sake of copying.

Good-looking skin is the same

An interesting soul is one in a million.

Liu Dong is undoubtedly one of the latter.

Liu Dong: I don't want to go to school.

Skull is generally a symbol of terror, but Liu Dong's skull is a little more human. The huge shape of the skeleton seems to indicate infinite power, but it will still stand alone in the sunset or curl up in a corner, looking like an isolated child.

He will be tightly wrapped around the cable, and he will pretend to lean on the cable and say "hello, beauty ~"

Terrible, huge appearance and slippery.
