Yeah, the maps are kinda pointless without seeing your art.

I have more work, but this is the only painting that is really into the direction I want to go and maybe my only work that I really like that I did. I am currently learning to do oil paint so I can make future paintings in oils.

>>2857394
thanks! nice influences and painting as well

>>2857394
You are my influence ven!

>>2857394

wow im anime desu but this is rare ; an /ic/ type i like , you must have good taste combined with experience.
see it's like normally western art finds itself on the ugly side (for me) as a favor to realism, whereas anime has a nice appeal but sadly doing supa serious stuff (SSS) just looks baby tried gundam, anime can never escape not being taken 100% seriously, but perhaps thts part of the charm?

so yeah keep doing what you're doing! i like the whole yin yang thing going on with her being the white element in a sea of black.

>>2856909
>sinix

loooooooool

>>2857264
Actually good and have good taste desu.

>>2857453
>regular faces are ugly
>giant bug-eyed noseless women are appealing

This is why weebs are hated on /ic/, just letting you know.

>>2857531
haha i hope you don't give critiques

I have an issue with these influence maps because I can't tell the difference between artists whose work I love (or just happen to like) and artists who actually influence my stylistic decisions or goals.

I've filled out like three different maps and still feel lost in what direction I want to go to.

>>2857572
That's why you make a bigger map.

>>2857124
i love you and you deserve good things happening to you (i was the person who posted the influence meem)

>>2857533
Doesn't matter what you call them, anime style faces are appealing.

I used to draw anime when I was very young, I still like very well done and also very cute anime drawings, but found that my love lies for mostly realistic work ( but not photorealism/hyperrealism ).
Do anime if you like it a lot, find the kind of anime that appeals to you the most to you, if you do it with passion you will become great at it and your work would even be liked by people who are not into anime. : D

>>2857264
do you have parkinsons or something? ive never seen anything so fucking sloppy

>>2857600
Really nice, where did you get inspiration for a piece like this?

>>2857530
why you talking shit about sinix mang
its more his approach to drawing that i like ( i wish he worked more on rendering his stuff more carefully, he actually has a really good eye for color)
just how he goes on about things is very interesting and ive been finding a lot of his tips pretty useful
if hes not a great artist hes at least a pretty good teacher/motivator in my book

>>2857608
theres a level in dishonored 2, called the royal conservatory thats full of plants and broken stuff and its the prettiest thing ive ever seen and that pretty much inspired this smeary thing

the concept art for dishonored/dishonored 2 are really big inspirations for me!

>>2858662
They're not very influential. They make a lot of money though.

>>2858662
They are kinda hated around here, personally I don't find them influential because the vast majority of their work is fanart.

Don't get me wrong, I want to, but I don't think posting my work on 4chan of all places is a good idea.

>>2858926
>distinct
That fag likes pretty typical concept art. You don't get more generic than Halo.

>>2859329
Well, so do I. And what I mean by distinct is that the entirety of the chosen images fall into a certain mood/narrative - big vast city/structures, kind of cold, impersonal world, a lonely protagonist/"man on a mission"...

Fantastic shit. I haven't been so impressed with an /ic/ artist in a while. I'm also sensing a Kathe Kollwitz influence even though you didn't mention her...i think studying some german expressionists would add a lot to your work.
