Sleeping Fluttershy (3D graphics)

Fluttershy is one of the main characters in My Little Pony: Friendship is magic, which recently ended in season 9, which began in 2010 as an advertisement for Hasbro toys of the same name, but quickly and unexpectedly became international a phenomenon far beyond the target audience. In the center of the plot is a group of six dissimilar characters led by the unicorn Twilight Sparkle, who learn from their mistakes of friendship and mutual…

Edward Preyfield, Scientist (Character Portrait in 3D)

Time to break a couple of laws of physics, my friends. Edward G. Preyfield, professor of physics at Oxford (1916 -…) A portrait of the main character of my project, an eccentric scientist, inventor and adventurer from 1960s England. The goal of the project was to continue practicing 3D character modeling and generally improve my skill level a little. It was done mainly in a bundle of 3ds Max + Corona, using Sculptris and Photoshop.

June ("The Handmaid's Tale")

Portrait of June Osborne (Elisabeth Moss), the protagonist of The Handmaid's Tale. A4 paper, acrylic paints. If you are interested, here is an overview of the first two seasons of the allegory series on the problems of women in the modern world in an exaggerated, dystopian form. My wife and I really liked it, takes it hard. The third season was not as intense as the second, and, alas, no revolution has happened yet, but…

There's Nothing Fun In Being Horn-Y (Hellboy Review, 2019)

Hellboy (David Harbor, Sheriff Jim Hopper from Stranger Things) is a big and sulky big man with a red face (not because he drinks) and horns (not because his wife cheated on him), which he constantly files to keep from growing into mugs … Because Hellboy or, in Russian, "Devil" is really the devil himself from the underworld. But, oddly enough, not evil, but quite good-natured, somewhere in the depths, behind a stern face. Hellboy…

Alita: Battle Angel Review (2019)

A cheerful, rather original and at the same time simple, naive and rather even a childish film about a robot girl with incredibly large and touching eyes, which the mechanical scientist Dr. Ido found in the trash heap, repaired and helped to get back on her feet - and then she discovered, which can easily distribute lula to traveling cyborg drug addicts. Alita meets and falls in love with a completely ordinary guy who has…

Marvel's Spider-Man: Far From Home Review (2019)

Spider-Man: Far From Home is a cool and fun one-shot film that concludes the story of The Avengers and brings the evolution of Peter Parker in the world of Marvel to its logical conclusion. My wife and I do not regret that we went, it seems, it will be even more interesting further.

I especially liked the villain and his concept …

The Handmaid's Tale Review (2017-2021)

Offred was not always in red. Once upon a time. In another life. There was a daughter who was taken away. Loving husband. Friend… … once she even had a name. Does it matter which one? Now they found a new home for her and named her Offred. Of Fred Freedom and independence, work and personal money … … an incomprehensible luxury that seemed familiar before the war broke out and the weakened United States…

Chernobyl Review (2019)

An incredibly heavy five-part film that everyone needs, just NEEDS to watch - a detached view from the outside of our, alas, history, based almost entirely on dry facts and eyewitness memories, with fictional fiction only in some details, admitted for the sake of a better storytelling. This is not horror, not a thriller, or even a forensic drama or detective story. This is a portrait of an entire country and an entire era -…

Game of Thrones Review (2011-2019) - Khaleesi, how so ?!

The end of the eighth and final season is weak, even with a discount on all the good and beautiful dramatic moments in the previous episodes, concluding the story arcs of the important minor characters. The transformation of one of the main characters into an antihero, and the most vile villainess into a defenseless martyr, was cool. But everything else … the political, haha, final of the War for the Iron Throne (a very unexpected…
