十九世纪无畏的探险家 Denison 教授回归了!不久前,教授发现了一座人类与恐龙和谐共处的失落岛屿。如今,教授与他的恐龙伙伴 Bix 受到了前往神秘禁地 Chandara 帝国的召见。然而,当他们不慎丢失了皇帝的邀请函后,这两位探险者不得不身无分文且隐姓埋名地越过边境。生动引人的叙述辅以令人陶醉的插画,生动勾勒出他们的旅程及其沿途的壮丽奇观:由三艘立起的船只拼成的村落、高达50英尺且配备防火装置的腕龙

……书架上摆了一堆关于著名艺术家的画册:达芬奇、米开朗基罗、梵高等。- C.S. Lewis 的《纳尼亚传奇》系列。他们还把《狮子、女巫和魔衣橱》改成了图像小说。- James Gurney 的《恐龙大陆》(Dinotopia)。还有好多我没列出来,但这些是个不错的开始。如果可以的话,我也建议去独立书店和你家孩子的学校看看有没有什么推荐。
…a bunch of art books about famous artists on the shelf: Davinci, Michelangelo, Van Gogh, etc. - Narnia series by C.S. Lewis. They also make a graphic novel of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. - Dinotopia by James Gurney There's a lot I'm leaving out but those are a good start. I'd also look for recs from mom-and-pop bookstores and your child's school if you are able.
……《Illustration》。里面满是各种各样的滤镜技巧。想要本更新一点的书,James Gurney 的《Color and Light》和《Imaginative Realism》都相当不错。你也可以弄一本他的《恐龙大陆》(Dinotopia)看看,虽说对做图形设计没啥帮助,但是,嘿,那可是恐龙啊。对吧?(他还有个很棒的网站:http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/)渐变和 ramp 很有用,既能打破大块平涂……
…Illustration. It's full of all kinds of filtering tricks. For a more modern book, James Gurney's Color and Light and Imaginative Realism are both quite good. You can also pick up a copy of one of his Dinotopia books, it won't help designing graphics, but, hey, dinosaurs. Right? (He also has an excellent website: http://gurneyjourney.blogspot.com/) Gradients and ramps are useful, both to break up large flat…
长久以来,艺术家们一直在利用我们大脑的超分辨率重建能力。许多画作,哪怕是像 James Gurney 在他的《恐龙大陆》(Dinotopia)系列里那些看似细节拉满的作品,背景里其实也就是一团团色块。我们的大脑会根据轮廓和形状脑补出海量实际上根本不存在的细节。比如衣服的材质以及……
Artists have for the longest time used our brains ability to upscale. Many paintings, even ones that seem super detailed like those by James Gurney in his Dinotopia series, will have blobs in the background. Our brain will recognize based on silhouette and shape an extraordinary amount of detail that isn’t actually there. Detail such as the type of clothing and the…
在 James Gurney 的《恐龙大陆》(Dinotopia)中,人类把时间想象成一条线,而恐龙则把它想象成一个圆。双方各退一步,同时向恐龙孩子和人类孩子传授一套融合的理论:“时间是一个螺旋”。……
In James Gurney's Dinotopia, humanity is described as imagining time as a line, whereas dinosaurs imagine it as a circle. They compromise and teach a single cohesive theory of "time as a helix" to both saurian and simian children.…
