I can't find proof, but I once called Rabbids "gaming's forced meme" without ever playing one of the games. I was being a jerk.
After playing 20 minutes of Rabbids Go Home with my kid tonight, I'm happy to say I was wrong. Not only did it get genuine laughs out of me and my kid, but the "Rabbid in the controller" section is right up there with playing with Mario's face in Super Mario 64. That's a huge compliment but trust me, it's every bit as addictive.
I understand now why Nintendo co-signed Rabbids and gave us a Super Mario x Rabbids game.
Today's lesson: My words here are opinions that can change any time with experience.
Rayman’s loneliness in Captain Laserhawk hurts considering he’s surrounded by friends in most of his games. After watching it, I wanted to make a comparison to game appearances and his anime counterpart.
In this piece I tried out the shading used in animation for the Captain Laserhawk anime’s Rayman. For the Sparks Of Hope Rayman side, I shaded in a 3-D looking airbrush style. I really wanted to get across that they are from different universes (2-D and 3-D) and I think it worked out! This was very fun shading and lighting study to do.
Constructive criticism is welcome for this piece! I am looking to improve on things like shading and backgrounds. I have mostly been practicing 3-D looking shading recently and am eager to learn more about 2-D shading.
The little dude showed up again, and this time we were open! He quickly walked up to the counter and started to chat with me... I think... Sadly, I don't speak rabbid. I wish I did because he seemed extremely energetic about whatever subject he talked about!
I've decided to make him a drink the next time he comes in. Don't know what to make him though, so any ideas??
