I think I might see spider-verse for a third time, I love it, but just change two things:
Miles kills the spider that bites him - I know it’s a plot contrivance so he can find the spider later, but he’s such a Good Boy and doing that is weirdly dickish. Just flick it off your hand?
Sort out Peni’s aesthetic - she feels like a ‘westerner doing anime’ on the most superficial level. It just has a sense of a lack of care compared to the other characters. Like maybe reference a specific series or artist rather than having this sort of flat generic look that doesn’t really look like any anime? Or reference a modern-cgi anime approach, like BBK/BRNK or Land of the Lustrous.
Eg. her intro moment where she leaps onto screen throwing a peace sign and shouting ‘hajimemashite’ - I don’t think I’ve ever seen an anime character make that entrance, but I feel like I’ve definitely seen the western japanese schoolgirl stereotype character do that a lot.
Just tweak that slightly - she leaps onto screen standing on her robot shouting ‘Sp//dr and I are the defenders of neo-manhattan!’ or something similar instead of unsubtitled japanese and a peace sign - that would be cool.
Starting an art blog at echidnite on tumblr and also a fan trash twitter @echidnite as well.
I have a twitter associated with my real name but now tumblr is starting to slow down I need to go be fandom trash on more than one platform. The fact that twitter exposes your likes makes it impossible to use one account to be professional and also like Peter b Parker/Tom hardy Eddie Brock fanart you know??
@echidnite for just art if you’re keen- currently allll my old stuff is set to queue there to go there if you want to relive some old art
