Greetings Animus-fans! Welcome to the Wednesday Mash-up, where I promise that it’s Wednesday (as I write this) and that there will be a mash-up somewhere in this post. Will it be after the third paragraph? Maaaaaaaybe.
This is the final week of Rebels mash-ups. It’s been quite the ride these past eleven weeks, adapting a new set of costumes to the anatomy of my characters. Some have worked really well. Others, sadly not so much. As always, click on the picture to see a closeup.
It’s sad that I’m closing on a piece that simply isn’t as strong as the others in the set. I had a big problem figuring out what to do with Big Oonch. I came close on several occasions to cutting Oonch out of the set, but I really wanted to do something for the whole cast. I’d already gone through all the main characters and a couple of the more unique designs of lesser characters. Vizago was the only character left in my mind…but try as I might, I couldn’t figure out a really good way to hide Oonch’s eyes. I thought I might do something with Vizago’s horns, but it just came off as creepy. Finally, I gave him the prosthetic brow that kinda casts a shadow over his eyes. Oh well.
That’s all for this week. Next week, it’s time for a new theme to begin. Come back next Wednesday for the reveal!
