How do you like your soy sauce?

Japanese? Chinese? supermarket brand? Or perhaps you already tried to brew some on your own?

Well there are a lot of different ones available out there.

This bottle of a particular Japanese soy sauce is one that a friend always buys for her pantry.

She used to order produce etc. directly from farmers and post her wonderful deliveries on Insta. But got busy and stopped awhile ago unfortunately she moved to Germany couple of months ago and can`t get that brand anymore.

So here is her favorite soy sauce in pixels.

Let`s hope she can find a good alternative in Düsseldorf.


I find that doing still life helps practice any technique, whether traditional or digital. The forms are usually a lot easier to grasp and the colors are nice.

The truth is I had no idea what to draw. So instead of making something brand new, I've decided to animate the bottle I made last year. Spinning it seemed too easy, but rolling was eye-opening.
The more frames you draw the slower it rolls.

SFX

On my request @elliotjgardner has added some cool sound effects and made some short music for the above animation. You can see it here: Bottle of soysauce (don`t forget to switch on the sound and enjoy.)
Hence, 25% of the payout from this post will go to him for the music effort :)

I hope we can collaborate again.

Ciao.
