Kubo and the Two Strings



Kubo and the Two Strings is a clay-animation film created by Laika Studios, an outlier in the film industry. I've always admired the dedication and the originality of their works, but my absolute favorite of their productions is Kubo.

"The film revolves around Kubo, a young boy who wields a magical shamisen (a Japanese guitar) and whose left eye was stolen during infancy. Accompanied by an anthropomorphic snow monkey and beetle, he must subdue his mother's corrupted Sisters and his power-hungry grandfather Raiden (The Moon King), who is responsible for stealing his left eye."

-From the Wiki

Today I colored a chibi Kubo, ready to face down his wicked grandfather! I love the colors and composition of Kubo's costume design.

I added several tips for coloring and drawing on Clip Studio Paint, or any digital art program, in fact, throughout the video! I hope you enjoy. :)
