I've wanted to draw a Tekkonkinkreet poster for forever, and after Japan I finally finished one.
Tekkonkinkreet is incredible. From the original manga to the animated film, it's tale of two orphan children who struggle to survive in an ever changing city walks the line between the mundane and the fantastic in such a unique way.
White's optimistic and childish, Black is world weary and realistic, and Takaramachi, the city these kids operate lives and breathes and is so densely populated it's a character of it's own (hats off to Shinji Kimura's backgrounds in the anime adaptation). The story deals beautifully with dualities- cats and rats, old vs. new, youth vs. age, and ultimately black and white. If you haven't had chance to check out the manga or the film, I highly recommend both. It's introspective yet dynamic, realistic yet expressionistic, simple and yet beautifully complex.
