1993 SNES starfox and Godzilla
I don't know why starfox made me want to draw, it was just a bunch of polygons

project ako was my favorite anime, yay
now that i think of it though a manga called caravan kidd by johji manabe inspired me a lot, which also starred a super strong red-head and had cool mecha. there was also an exhibition at the art gallery here called 'japan & monet' which i think was pretty important to me, but that's a lame one.

nice to see another ako fan. that must be some theme of redheads being really strong.

Hentai made me want to start drawing.
Yeah I guess, although according to my mom I liked drawing way before I tried to copy anime and cartoons.
It was actually a woman in the kindergarten who painted decorations for plays while we were sleeping. She did it very neatly and confidently, such elegant curves. It really struck me. I hadn't actually start drawing seriously until I was 15, but even now that's what I still like about art and what inspires me the most - elegance, fluidity

You must've been a kindergartner of fine taste.

Tetsuya Nomura. Ironically, I don't like him as much as I used to.
And remember that dumb Date Sim from Newgrounds with the DNA^2 characters?

Nope, never attempted to draw any characters from tv as a kid, i don't remember why i got into drawing but from a young age me and my mates would constantly be trying to outdo each other through all of primary and highschool. using people as inspiration so we could make them and each other look retarded and laugh about it.
