I like the soft transitions of tone and often muted colours of Mucha's work. I would really like to learn how to colour like this digitally.

On top of that I love the one he outlines and find a similar approach in a lot of manga's. Hatching, both in B&W and with colours is also something I enjoy.

I also have a soft spot for anatomy, which is something I've been trying to work on.

I'm definitely on the way with my linework and anatomy but I really don't know where to go to for rendering as I'm still stuck on a very simple cellshade look which while I don't hate is more dictated my skill level than preference.

I like this spread. What is it about your vidya pics you like? The pic itself or the general vvibe from the games they belong to?

Source on the Red Knight down the bottom?

>>7620258
This is a nice and nuanced way of laying out your goals. Also like the spread of works, especially on the M/V/A side. But a lot of the linework on L/S/GS is nice too.

Very nice inspirations, Mucha is a great source for just about any approach, it'll go great with the others if you marry them. Love the pulp work, too. It's all good.

>What is it about your vidya pics you like? The pic itself or the general vvibe from the games they belong to?
The pic itself, the lighting, the atmosphere, texture work, just about all of it. Plus I love 3D modelling so they're an inspiration for that, too, I plan to do a lot of multi media stuff.
>Source on the Red Knight down the bottom?
That's Gladio, from Voice of Cards: Forsaken Maiden, designed by Kimihiko Fujisaka.

Good luck, anon!

I feel the same way. There are different styles I like that wouldn't work together. I know at some point I will be able to confidently do one or the other but atm I'm too /beg/ to focus on two conflicting styles while building up the necessary fundies.

Nice spread. I like middle bottom. Source?

My issue was I didn't have any source of inspiration because I didn't interact with any art or media for years and it resulted in my art looking awkward & unappealing

I'm glad i'm not the only one... I'm rooting for you too anon.
I've been flipping through my artbooks lately and trying (again) to emulate and pick at details from artists I like but somehow there's this feeling of "How do I want it to look anyway...?". Not that i'm out of ideas to draw (I mainly draw fanart) or not know what I want to convey with my art but it's like... I like too many things and I want to get good to a point where I can just pivot to any style I want with good foundations. Artists from Capcom, Yoshinari, Rinotuna and Hungryclicker. I guess artists who can work with any style while still maintaining some of their distinct quirks /is/ my final goal but I can't get to that point if I don't start with at least /something/. That 'something' is not clear to me at the moment. I wish I knew the answer.

I'm rooting for you too! It sounds like you have similar taste in art as me.

For me, I think its because I have some perfectionism and want to be "efficient". I've been told to just pick an artist I like and go for it. It's helped alittle in the past, but then I fight boredom when it becomes more routine. But it can help. I don't know if thats the answer, but I hope you can find it too! You got this anon :)

I want to be able to make art that has high appeal to effort ratio so I can focus on telling stories. My perfectionism prevents this and I keep going back to refine things that's probably already fine as it is.

Honestly I don't know, but I think I want something like this guy. At least when it comes to his lines. The only thing I know I want is beatiful lines and being able to do exaggerated perspective cameras. What the fuck is with that price though, is that normal? I guess I'm at least somewhat interested in animation too. All really know about what I want is that I want to draw cute girls being cool.

I really love this style. Ngl mj can make ideas but not perfectly. I recommend using it as a tool for this style though because it can make a really good outline. frank frazetta, movie poster, alex ross, typography, glow in the dark, loish.

Made a new one and tried my best to narrow the scope down. I'm still a bit lost because while I admire these artists, it's not really that I want my art to resemble theirs very strongly. Moreso the technical skill. I also admire animators in general (trigger/gainax or indie/freelance). Some influence from these has seeped into my work for sure but nothing definitive (skill issue on my part).
>>7624365
The perfectionism is real. But also choice paralysis because I get drawn to one kind of style, try it, then realize I don't actually want to draw like that in the end. I've definitely gaslit myself into a negative feedback loop. I haven't stopped trying at least. Thanks anon, I hope you're blessed with gains.

Same here, I have two DA Accounts where one I had the intent to do something "normal", like some work being a mix of Hokuto no Ken, Soul Calibur and Tintim (with a mix of Frazetta and San Kieth artstyle) and in another I try to do something akin to Olympic-Dames and some shoujo shit as fetish art (with a mix of O-D, Big-Big, Axel Rosered and others as artstyle), well, when I have time and sinpiration I might try one or another

Predictable response from you lot. I had surrealist phase too back in HS too. Some day you'll mature and grow out of your nietzschean lens.

i used to love manga as a kid, and iโ€™m back into trying to figure out yasuhiro nightowโ€™s work. the deeper i dive, the more marvelous it gets. so just him, right now. and nature. (animals in motion, physics of fabric, anatomy, etc.)
i come from loving the golden age american illustrators, the russian old masters & illustrators of fairy tales, and similar things. thereโ€™s a lot. i like most things.

i just really love his characters, and i want to understand his world so i can properly populate them in it. itโ€™s pretty complex.

if any anon wants to talk about this, study with me, ask for things, or give me a challenge in keeping with this stuff, iโ€™d be happy to do it.

I would like to master Yoshikadu Hamada's understanding of anatomy, Masayoshi Tanaka's aesthetics and composition, and the comic timing of works such as seto no hayanome, hinamatsuri, prison school and kono suba.
