#action drawing

The biggest and most notable similarity between the two games is their name and release date, as THQ seemed to insist upon a release date of October 2009, with the exact day varying between region.

Another notable similarity is the inclusion of Action Drawing, where the player manually draws into the world, creating platforms with different properties for the Hero to interact with. However, despite both games having these features, their implementations are vastly different.

Lastly, and the least likely to be THQ's influence, both games have a level designated as "Crystal Caverns". In the DS game, Crystal Caverns is the first level of Lavasteam's story, while in the Wii game, it is the third level of the Icy Wastes.

In the fandom, this name similarity is best known for when Seiinity accidentally made an arrangement of the Icy Wastes theme instead of Lavasteam 1, the track that plays in the DS's Crystal Caverns.

Hey buddies! I’m back with a redraw of an old artwork of 2018.

I added a small story behind it, so now it’s Todoroki vs Bakugou. I experimented with my art style since few weeks.

action pose study 

listen guys--- everyone gets mega pissed when people trace or when it looks like someone traced.  here’s the thing.  when you’re l e a r n i n g how to draw;;; PLEASE TRACE,,, and by trace I DO NOT mean trace, colour it in and the claim it as your own.  I mean THIS:

ANCHOR POINTS- no one can draw a good dynamic action pose without anchor points or at least without understanding them previously.  The PINCH.  Hips and shoulders are very rarely in the human body going to be parallel or perfectly straight and even.  99.9% of the time, there is this little PINCH POINT where the shoulder line and the hip line cross or meet.  This point will help you SO MUCH when it comes to creating dynamics and the appearance of flowing movements.  NOTICE HOW EVEN THE HEAD AND THE RAISED FOOT ARE A PART OF THE ANCHOR!!!  This is mega important ! ! !

Both of the feet, the head positioning, and the shoulder/hip combo are all attached to this little invisible point and most of the time people approach figure drawing with shapes and form.  That’s all well and good but you must understand that this anchor point creates a pose.  It pulls everything together.  Literally.

Now this sketch pose I did is very cleaned up and nice (it originally was a mess but I decided to clean it up to post) but normally just getting the ROUGH idea of the pose and the anchor point are all you need to create a really dynamic pose.  Make mistakes.  Feel it out.  Art isn’t that hard if you understand the basics, but you need to practice.
