In this video, I take on the challenge of recreating an interior background from the Tendo family home in the Ranma 1/2 remake! 🏯✨ The original background was created by Kusanagi Studio, known for their beautifully detailed anime environments. As a big fan of this anime, I wanted to analyze their work and practice matching their perspective, lighting, and texturing techniques while adding my own touch.

This scene depicts the interior of the Tendo house, blending traditional Japanese architecture with 1980s Tokyo elements. You can see a low wooden table with cushions, a retro TV, and in the background, the shoji (sliding doors) leading to the garden with a pond—a key feature of the dojo’s peaceful atmosphere.

From a technical standpoint, this was a great perspective study. The scene follows a strong one-point perspective, drawing the viewer’s eye toward the garden doors. I paid close attention to how the wooden beams, tatami flooring, and furniture align within the space to maintain structural accuracy and depth.

Beyond perspective, I also worked on color and texture techniques to match Kusanagi Studio’s painterly anime backgrounds. Their work has a mix of soft gradients, delicate lighting, and warm tones, creating an inviting and nostalgic feel. I focused on blending colors subtly and using edge control to achieve a similar aesthetic.

This piece took about 6 hours, and it was a fantastic exercise in both technical skills and artistic observation. I hope you enjoy watching the full process!
