並行活動DEPOT977の物語

DEPOT977 is my side project about digital illustration, sci-fi, tributes and fanart.

It was born as a Tumblr that I launched to show my personal projects about illustration and t-shirt design, available on RedBubble

After the Covid lockdown in 2020, it evolved in a dedicated instagram profile, and playlists on YouTube and Vimeo , to show my working process.
Lastly, it's also a Cara profile.

...playing with augmented reality

I have drawn a personal AKIRA poster tribute... And I have animated its kinetic version... And its AR edition!
Download Aria Platform, an augmented reality free app for iOS and Android to watch this and more cool stuff.

...playing with model kits and RC model cars

As you've probably figured out... I'm a huge fan of Katsuhiro Otomo's work, so at one point I thought about buying an RC drift car, a static Toyota Supra kit, modifying it, and putting them together.

And yep! It really runs and drifts!
