Catching up with Daily Sketches -- Nausicaa Edition




I had finals last week and I also moved apartments so updating here has been scarce. However, I haven't stopped sketching and here are the sketches inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's "Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind". I have other sketches that should soon see the light of day once I touch down in Korea and have time to color them. Hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far!

Your sketches made me look into what they were based on. Seems like a pretty neat story.

The caterpillar thing (Ohmu?) came out the best, though all very cool.

Hope you are well, as always.

Hey Casey!

Welcome to Eyeless Feesh and thanks for commenting :D

You should go watch it Nausicaa if you can. Sometimes, I forget just how good a lot of the animation in the eighties were (Beauty and the Beast, Nausicaa, etc.). Also, it features a strong female lead that doesn't fall into many of the cliches associated with them (such as a tough attitude or overt sexuality). Fun stuff, if a bit fantastical at times... then again, it is a Miyazaki movie we're talking about.
