Description
Yes I'm doing it too. I never do these things, so why not this time
.I forgot soooo many people, especially my buddys, but then there'd be no space left. Anways those are some ppl/things that kinda influenced me over the years.
Jo Chen: Ever since I saw her earlier work many years ago sheβs my idol. Always my no. 1
Rustyuri: Wow, I will never be able to use watercolor like that. And there is something mysterious, surreal about her art. 100% inspiring
Gunnmgally: Aww no words. What I learned from her is to be more experimental with colors; also she has that great detail in the facial expressions
Kouyu Shurei + Sang-sun Park: My manga inspirations, loving the hints of goth in their work
Heise: Inpires the side of me that wants to go for more naturalism. Love the way she draws skin and hair.
Adam Hughes: Master with amazing coloring skills
Fun stuff: What should I say XD. The stupid stuff makes me laugh, wish I could do something similar
Textures+patterns: give you many possibilities; I hope I wonβt overuse them in the future
Miyazaki: Love the movies, love the concept art. Especially the background work is amazing.
Youkan: Nice Manga style, always loved the Ragnarok work

It's always interesting to see someone else's influences, and in fact I know at least some of the stuff on your list. I'm reading a book based on the Tarot Cafe manga

I love Jo Chen's art! It's so beautifully refined yet containing the essence of comics.
Did you know she has a limited 1500 artbook for sale right now? If you go to her homepage she has a article about it, apparently you can only order them from her, since they aren't sold in any retail store.
I've already ordered mine

It's so interesting to see where other peoples' inspiration stem from, and how similar they are to ours as well. I love that you have Adam Hughes and Gunnmgally up there. I admire Adam's approach to color theory, and Gunnmgally's brisk painting style as well. Thank you for sharing!

That's true, while looking at other maps I also saw a lot similarities. You also realize that sometimes there are certain little things that are fascinating about other ppls work, like their colorful usual painting style ect. ... thanks for the comment
