The expression difference of the Song of Sowing Song
In a 2024 interview on "Song of Sowing," popman3580 said that extensive facial expression differences are new work experience; He first grasps the character's personality, then makes different expressions come alive.
The appearance and uniforms of the three generations of characters
He made Misuzu's facial features similar to Tsumugi's, while Yoko's features were slightly different, while maintaining a sense of kinship. Uniforms also distinguish eras: Yoko wears a sailor suit and headband, Misuzu wears a suit uniform, and Tsumugi wears a futuristic uniform with a personal modification feel.
Draft and Clearance Process for 2020
When shooting in 2020, he often found an element he wanted to draw from the pose or hair direction, then started the sketch with Photoshop. Draft and subscript are gradually organized on the same layer; after the shape is determined, a separate layer is created to clear the draft.
Few layers with unified shadows
He explained that too many layers can easily cause confusion and errors, so he tries to minimize layers; Colors on the same layer can be adjusted separately by selecting each area. Shadows are usually concentrated in one layer and then layered using a multiple-bottom stacking method.
Color checks on different screens
At that time, after drawing on the digital screen, he would check the colors on the iMac and adjust them with Photoshop if necessary; Illustrations for social platforms often use the iPhone as the final confirmation, considering the viewing environment for readers.
The arrangement of sitting postures in the square image
This demonstration uses a square image. He starts from a sitting position that fits within the frame, then lets his right hand touch the hair on the left side and adjusts the direction of his toes to add body twists to the posture.
Character design in "Song of Sowing."
When popman3580 designed Hiruko for 'Song of Sowing,' they considered that this character belonged to the world of gods and needed to coordinate with other deities in ManiaNi's works. He adapted the clothing to a given direction, using the clerical granary as a foundation, balancing the visual balance between real and fantasy characters.
When Seiji designed "Song of Sowing," popman3580 learns that the character will transform from an unreliable young man into a father. In his college student image, he uses fine lines and eye expressions to express a sense of insecurity; The father's period emphasizes gentleness and generosity, allowing the changes in the same person's life to be reflected in their appearance.
