Queen's Gambit Review (2020)

The outstanding mini-series about gifted young girl with a difficult fate, who learned to play chess from an old man in an orphanage and is doing everything to become the champion of the United States and defeat the strongest grandmaster in the world in the USSR. It would seem that chess is not the most spectacular sport, but the way it is presented here is breathtaking. And the focus is not at all on chess!…

Magic of the Night (Fanart MLP: FiM)

1/6 Fluttershy 4/6 Rarity 2/6 Twilight Sparkle 5/6 Rainbow Dash 3/6 Applejack 6/6 Pinkie Pie Another art with reworked images from the animated series, now dedicated to the main character, the unicorn Sparkle. She is naturally strong in magic and prone to reflection, so I painted her in a pensive, meditative pose and with two pairs of extra wings enveloped in an unburned fire, as a reference to the religious imagery and aesthetics of the…

Missed "The Office" - You're Fired! (2005-2013)

It would seem like a simple sitcom from a series of twenty minutes, where people are engaged in meaningless work and endure the stupid antics of their boss, who constantly makes fun of - and himself gets into trouble - but how it was invented, written, played! Although the tyrant director who mocks his subordinates is very sad (and the first season of the show, which adapts the British miniseries of the same name in…

Fluttershy (Fanart, Night Magic 1/6)

(Click to enlarge and view in detail) Another fanart for the animated series about the cloven-hoofed inhabitants of a conditionally fantasy kingdom, bringing the light of friendship to the wild lands of aggressive neighbors. He took only the basis from the image of one of the heroines, tried to create a magical atmosphere in which, on the one hand, there would be echoes of an elusive dream, and on the other, notes of magic, which,…

Zeus (3D sculpt)

More or less fast sculpting of a human head in Sculptris. It seems that this is the limit of this free program's capabilities. I started by sculpting a realistic skull model based on other references. This is how it looks in rotation. Then he left the skull, placed the base sphere in it and began to sculpt a face out of it, taking into account the proportions. I added basic details, adjusted the shapes, decided…

Dark Review (2017 - 2020, Netflix)

Netflix's German science fiction series 'Dark' is a brain blast. we watch them and their decisions at different ages - and everything becomes much more complicated when you realize that this is a story about time travel, time loops and inevitability fate, when everything you do to stop evil only brings it closer. Do we have freedom of choice or is it the same illusion as the directionality of time (which, according to Einstein, exists…

Harley Quinn and Ivy (Fanart)

This spring and summer ended the second season of the animated series for the adult audience "Harley Quinn" - a story based on DC comics of an eccentric criminal who decides to part with the "king of the underworld", the clown gangster Joker - and begins her journey to self-affirmation in the company best friend and flamboyant fellows of lesser rank (including the polite talking shark and the artistic lump of clay). Harley asserts herself…

Terminator: Dark Fate Review (2019)

With all the credit of trust and low expectations with which you start watching, at the end you are left with the question: "So … and why did I watch all this?" The previous film, "Genesys", although it also repeated a lot from the legendary first two films (the second, "Doomsday", is generally a masterpiece, a reference action movie and not the stupidest thriller), but approached this creatively, rewriting the rules, deceiving expectations viewer (at…

Adventure Time (Fanart)

If you haven't seen this very crazy and surreal animated series yet, you have missed quite a lot. It begins abruptly and without introductions, the strange primitivist imagination and absurdity of situations can be confusing, but if you give this show a chance, then over time it will become clear that under the hood of a funny children's ten-minute show is a sad story of growing up in a post-apocalyptic world after "Mushroom war ",…

The Gone World by Tom Sweterlitsch Book Review

An abrupt start may even be frightening, and the main idea (a journey into a potential future in order to solve a crime in the present present), even if at first it seems not entirely plausible, but within the framework of the world of the book, it convincingly works. In general, this is a very multi-genre work - based on an almost mundane story of the investigation of a brutal murder in 1997 with the…
