Description
I said I'd do one...and it was fast! I had no idea my Photoshop would let me place pictures in! Now I knowFrom left to right, top to bottom:
Baten Kaitos Origins: Aside from both BK games having gorgeous, gorgeous art that still inspires me, Origins showed me for the first time that any format of storytelling can tell a tale excellently and brilliantly present the truth of different matters.
Kagaya: LOVE. HIS. ART. I can only aspire and dream to be as good a digital artist as he is. Whew!
CLAMP: Mainly in xxxholic, but their stories that I actually like are always influential to me (as well as their art.)
Josephine Wall: Gorgeous art, which instilled in me a love of beautiful surrealism, especially when mixed with fantasy as she does. Lovely!
Very influential in different ways for me, which is odd, as I'm really not influenced or inspired my a lot of DA art often. I just adore her style, which convinced me that cartoonish style can be professional, and because of her I love blonde eyelashes, ABBA and eighties/disco fashion.
The little icon I choose says a lot of what influences me in her art: snow, renewing my faith in traditional arts, Christmasy stuffs (her art and Christmas are inexplicably linked together in my mind forever), realizing how gorgeously blue winter nights are and how that must effect my art from now on (and how much I just love winter), and Beckyless/VAAST. I don't know why, but I just love that character (and for some time, he was Fish in my mind......) and he was a thrill and a challenge to draw (and I want to take a stab again at his hair sometime.)
Evangelion: Kind of speaks for itself. I've only recently gotten into this fandom, but it's inspired me in so many different ways, including artistically. And the Rebuild movies are just brilliant.
Aerith/Clerith and Fan Art: Especially hana's art, as seen here. There's so much gorgeous Clerith art out there it's unbelievable. And I just adore Aerith and her with Cloud, one of my ultimate OTPs forever!
Tales of Symphonia: Several things, including Lloyd (he'll be my number one hero forever!), Collete's hair (reminding me that blonde hair is lovely!), and Zelos, the first character who ever really overwhelmed me with his depth!
(beneath) Spirited Away: Well, Studio Ghibli as a whole, but Spirited Away was the first movie I ever really just....fell in love with in so many ways, really. The first night I watched it, since it was a rental I woke up at 3 am that morning to watch it again while everyone was asleep!
Code Geass: Lelouch of the Rebellion: and (good) fan art.
Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask : Does this even need saying? Probably not. But all the Zelda games I've played, esp this one, have been so influential for me. Love em to death!

It was a fan art and....I'm afraid I can't recall the website Wish I could though, they had some gorgeous art. It was a Japanese website, I think.

Its amazing to think of all the things that made us the artist we are. I can see a little of all of these in your style of art. Very cool.

Excellent! I don't have that many pictures on my computer (except what I've drawn myself), but "My Favorites" might be a good place to start.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!!!! I could not BELIEVE I'm on there! My little picture looks rather plain amongst all those amazing arts, but I am THRILLED!! And everything you say is so great and makes me blush and get a shiver to hear. Christmas, yes! Oh and Vaast!!! That's so awesome! Fish, Hahahahahaha! Oh wow. I'm not talking in complete sentences. Fish is so awesome, so that's really cool. I hope that Vaast in the comic itself just reveals more and more of what about him you like. Oh you make me want to make it so much!!!
I told you I bought Baten Kaitos, right? Will start it soon.
You chose gorgeous pictures in general!

Well, it's because the only picture I knew of Fish was the one you drew, and I only looked at it a couple times long before I read the book, so all I remembered was his hat and that his hair was sorta long-ish....so that got blended up with Vaast. And yes, Fish is!
Oh, I simply can't wait to read it....
Yep! I hope you enjoy it...though the first one isn't as good as Origins, they're both brilliant and gorgeous~

Heehee, that is cool. I have the power!
Got about 90 page thumbnails done. At this point I could start the actual pages, but I'm kinda scared...
I wanted to start on Saturday but my siblings just wanted to play Warioware! XD
