About Ryujin Suratlandyrma

Ryujin — ýapon mifologiýasyndaky deňziň aždarha hudaýyndan ylham alnan suratlandyrmadyr. Eser nolдан döredilip, jikme-jikliklere güýçli üns berlen minimal çemeleşmä eýerýär. Fon personažy şöhlelendirýän ýapon ylhamly tolkunlary görkezýär. Konsepsiýa ilki sanly görnüşde eskiz edildi, soňra wektor çyzyklary, kölegelendirmek we reňk ulanyldy, ahyrky düzedişler bolsa şekili tamamlady. Suratlandyrma plakatlarda, gutlag kartoçkalarynda we köýneklerde çap edilýär. Maksat personažyň güýjüni şahsy stil bilen birleşen adaty ýapon şekilleri arkaly ýetirmekdi.
