Description
Here is my influence map. Hope you like it.I love dinosaurs. Ever since I was a kid, you could say they were my best friends. My top two faves were always (1.) Triceratops and (2.) Tyrannosaurus. The first two rows are some dinosaur franchises that I really enjoy.
Fossil Fighters - I truly enjoy this game series for its colorful dinosaur designs.
Dinotopia - a world where the dinosaurs not only survived extinction but also made a beautiful world where they and humans live peacefully. Who wouldn't want to live there?
Kyoryu Sentai Zyuranger and Bakuryuu Sentai Abaranger - the Japanese versions of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers and Power Rangers Dino Thunder. I think these two awesome series were where I got the color schemes for my dinosaurs from, especially for Triceratops. I got into making my Trikes blue thanks to Zyuranger's Guardian Beast Triceratops, and Abaranger's Bakuryuu Triceratops pretty much put the final nail on that coffin.
We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story - I really enjoy this classic dinosaur movie. Four dinosaurs (technically three dinos and a pterosaur) learn how to talk and are transported to modern day New York.
Jurassic Park - Do I really need to tell ya?
The Land Before Time - Not gonna even bother.
Dinosaur - probably my favorite Disney movie.
DinoLand U.S.A. - my favorite land of all the Disney Parks.
Extreme Dinosaurs - pretty much a badass version of We're Back! where four dinosaurs battle against three evil Raptors who want to take over the world.
Dinozaurs - similar to Transformers in a way, a group of prehistoric creatures called the Dino Knights protect Earth from the Dragozaurs, dragon/dinosaur creatures who want to steal the Earth's lifeforce.
Next two rows show artists who have influenced me:
Walt Disney has been a huge impact on my life. I always love the movies and parks, but he taught me to follow my dreams.
Ray Harryhausen, perhaps the most famous stop-motion animator and special effects artist, got me into sculpting and working with clay.
Willis O'Brien - If I'm going to add Ray, I have to add his inspiration, O'Brien, creator of "The Lost World" and "King Kong."
Max Fleischer - I've really gotten into Max Fleischer's cartoons, like Betty Boop and Popeye the Sailor Man. The animation of his cartoons is so amazing, I'd love to try matching it.
Stan Lee - I truly enjoy him and the Marvel universe that he helped make.
Steven Speilberg made three of my favorite dinosaur movies, which are on this map.
George Lucas
Matt Groening
Scott Cawthon is an Indy video game creator with the largest fandom I know. I would love to go Indy with my creations.
Dan Akroyd has become my favorite actor. Just like me, he also has Asperger's syndrome, a form of autism. I just love that an autistic person can become so famous.
The last two rows are other things that have inspired my artwork and ideas for future projects.
Digimon - Probably my favorite adventure series with all kinds of great characters and creatures.
Higurashi
Heaven's Lost Property - contrary to what you may think, I don't like this series for its fanservice, mmkay? What I love most is its character and background art.
Dinosaur King
GetBackers
Negima
Toho - creator of Godzilla and many other amazing giant monsters
Sonic the Hedgehog - this series spells nothing but adventure!
Primal Rage - one of my first video games, this game involves dinosaurs fighting for ruling the Earth in the future
Neosaurs - I really loved this game for its colorful character design, story and beautiful backgrounds
all images (c) to their owners, blah blah blah

The thing I thank for Stan Lee for that he was one of those who made loads of room to get my interests out to. Jack Kirby did the same hehe
