Work summary
----------------------------
Work size: 6S (410 x 410mm)
When I was in elementary school, the "Killer" character card was attached to the Mario gum I bought at the supermarket.
I was strongly attracted to the cannon's bullet-like shape and the three-dimensional smoke produced when it was fired, and copying it was what led me to start drawing explosions.
After that, I became obsessed with drawing and imitating the expressions of explosions, clouds, and smoke in movies such as ``Dangerous Old Man'' and ``Dragon Ball.''
Explosions, the fluidity of liquid, and the beauty of curves created in an instant—this source of interest could be called a kind of fetishism.
Looking back now, it led to the art school entrance exam work I did at the age of 17, effects in video expression, liquid animation, and other expressive techniques, which led to my current style.
The "ex" in the title comes from the first letter of the word "explosion."
However, it also includes the elements of ``expand'' to further expand this expression, and ``explore'' to indicate new exploration.
If you are obsessed with "ex"-girls or "ex"-boys, this work may help you blow away those stereotypes.
What we need is fluidity and good ventilation!
This time it will be the metal version.
