Tadaaaaa! It’s Tomoe and Shou! A redo of an old mini-comic without the comic. Originally Tomoe blackmailed Shou into playing a game of football with her, so yeah.

I’ve been wanting to draw Tomoe for months, but they all were unsatisfactor. Q_Q But I really like this one!

Hope you like ittttt..... @tomoe-au? XD Not sure which account your using for this~

old art below the cut

“Yes. I was told to find someone for....,” Jacob trailed off as his eye trailed down the other man’s torso. He averted his gaze and tightened his lip as he became lost momentarily in contemplation. “I see now that it may have been a joke, unless you accept male clients as well?” He shifted his weight, worried that he might have knocked on the wrong door.

Outfits He’s usually wearing well-fitted jeans (typically washed out) with all kinds of colorful shirts. He likes mostly plain, colorful shirts. He’ll wear vests with bold, funky patterns. In the colder months, he wears his leather boots or snow boots. In warmer weather, he wears hi-top vans.

BACKGROUND

Both of Pip’s parents are veterinarians. That’s how they met. His mother, Molly, specializes in making house calls to local zoos (she will also travel to nearby stables or farms) while his father, Patrick, tends to see more household pets in the office. They opened a private practice together called “Mollick Veterinary.” Pip’s elder twin brothers Callum and Derry plan to take over the family business and go into the same vein of work as their parents.

Pip lived a happy life growing up in the city of San Francisco with his elder brothers and younger sister, Ellis. His family was always happy and treated each other well. They were brought up to have the utmost respect for nature and all living things, including each other, so they rarely fight. It’s almost creepy to some people how well the family gets along. It doesn’t seem natural to everyone for a family to get along so well, and they’ve only gotten better and closer with age.

Pip aspires to work with animals for the rest of his life. As of now, that means walking dogs professionally as well as being a professional Pet/House Sitter in Brooklyn, New York where he currently lives. He doesn’t know how he’ll continue to work with animals in the future. Some ideas are wildlife photography, zoology, and marine biology. He would love to work at zoos like his mom does but not as a veterinarian. He loves animals too much to be the one always called in when they’re sick or hurting. His heart is too fragile for that.

2016 vmodern Furniture Design Competition

/ by Jordan Crawford

This fall, Gettliffe Architecture participated in the 2016 VMODERN Furniture Design Competition. The competition’s goal was to “promote the most creative pieces of furniture that will transform the way we live and interact with our environment.” As a studio, Gettliffe Architecture sought to pair the design competition with our “Place-making Initiative” and strived to develop a piece of furniture that would contribute to the Boulder Steel Yards community.

While businesses in the Steel Yards have succeeded at inviting foot traffic into the area, the small central park remains unnoticed and underutilized. It is a square, featureless area of grass that remains empty while the sidewalks and medians surrounding the adjacent storefronts teem with patrons. Our mission was to create a site-specific piece for the Steel Yards that would redirect pedestrians to the park by accommodating multiple functions, promoting physical movement, and nurturing the human body through awareness of ergonomics and scale.

The concept of a ribbon came into fruition through its historic symbolism as a non-verbal tool of communication. The developed piece taps into this symbolism transforming urban isolation into collaboration. By expanding and facilitating community functions, we can inspire social collisions that would not have happened otherwise.

To achieve this concept, three separate pieces were strategically placed within the Steel Yards. These three pieces are united in a forced perspective from a point at the entrance to The Steel Yards, forming a bold blue wave of ribbon that extends a full block away into the park. When engaging the pieces individually, each provides a platform for multiple uses – shelter, sitting, eating, stretching, sleeping, meeting, working, reading, etc. The playful, unexpected shapes are formed in stainless steel and coated in electric blue automotive-style paint. The steel provides the flexible strength required for the design, while also anchoring the piece within the history of the site. While sculptural in appearance, each piece encourages interaction and use, upturning the traditional concept of sacrosanct or untouchable art.

As each piece is encountered, a dialogue emerges between them. Ribbon #1 rises from the grass to create a protective shell around the user. Ribbon #2’s loop configuration encourages side-by-side seating, shaping an intimacy. The loop itself also echoes the larger intentions of the project, as a symbol of reciprocity and giving back. Ribbon #3, the piece situated within the park, expresses communal table seating in a whimsical and iconic shape. Food and conversation can be easily shared, breaking down social barriers. Throughout the sequence, there is a progression and continuity of expression. As they increase in scale, they further compel face-to-face interaction with other users.

I have no idea what this is even about ( ᐛ )و

It came to me in a vision. Why does Shou need to tell Tomoe this? Why does Tomoe seem surprised? Why would she forget? Wat has happened to test their friendship? IS IT FRIENDSHIP??? Who knows.

(((Does she need a new design? Or do you mean for the modernverse? Hanami won’t change very much either other than her color palettes. Since their father has different eye color than Naruto, that will change. Their mother also doesn’t have pink hair, so there’s that. Here’s a concept below I guess, I haven’t drawn her modern self before. This would be her colors in the modernverse based on her parents, compared to her in the Shinobi setting.)))

There’s not too much of a difference other than their coloring a bit. Might be some small personality changes too since Shinachiku is from a shinobi world and Shou is placed in more modern settings.

Shou’s full name is Shoutarou.

A redo of an old art that is quite fitting for ModernAU. Shou’s dad is always more distressed by his first day of school that he is. Holding hands is for his benefit, not Shou’s. Pfft
