Description My influence Map! ^^ I know it's a bit late but I wanted to do one, too <3 I'll upload this in plce of art since I'm sort of working on multiple things right now, which means they are each being finished extremely slowly = u =;;

1. The thing that annoys me to no end is when I'm playing a video game and it happens to have amazing or cute character designs. Disgaea, Pokemon, Muramasa, Odin Sphere, Harvest moon, DDR, Sonic I COULD GO ON =A=''. It forces me to STOP PLAYING..GRAB A PENCIL...and spend the rest of the night drawing and wishing I could finish the game eventually.

2. I love Escaflowne <3 It's an amazing fantasy anime and I really connected with it. I love the characters, Merle will forever be one of my top favourite anime characters <3

3. This is just a random manga I picked. My main focus is the fact that it was created by a non-asian person C: It's like, inspirational to see that even us white folk can produce manga. It pushes me towards my dream of creating my own manga someday.

4. Evangelion is just all around amazing. Asuka is another one of my forever top favourite characters of all time. There's so much emotion and it's so cool... I really don't know how to explain it @@ It's just perfect <3 It was also my favourite art style for almost a decade, I used to try to draw exactly like yoshiyuki.

5. Hyung-Tae Kim is amazing, let's all hate him together. 'nuff said. xD

6. I started watching Cardcaptors when I was 12. I would sit directly in front of the TV screen and draw the characters obsessivly. I tried so hard to get their jelly bean eyes just right *-* I still love her costumes, and the story, it always makes me want to draw my own clow card or battle costume^^.

7. Watching random speed-paint videos on youtube helps me to concentrate on my own W.I.P's and get them done faster. SEEING PPL WORK HARD INFLUENCES ME TO WORK HARDER. LOL.

8. I found out about Shiina Ringo through my other favourite band, Dir En Grey (they said they liked her lawl ;w; so I looked her up). Her lyrics and music are so emotional and unique, I love her style and sound and the PV's are usually pretty cool too. Her music ALWAYS makes me want to write or draw something. <3

9. The Chrestomanci series is so interesting, I love it! <3 I love fantasy & magic, these books are the best for both imo. And then to top it off I later found out she was the one who wrote howls moving castle o u o extra proof! she's amazing! READHERBOOKSLOL. Her stories make me dream and imagine things <3

10. Whenever I'm in a slump, I get out my 3814843758347 art books and look through them. Looking at other artist's work inspires me to create. PixIV is just one of the many artbooks I love ^^

Disturbing how a good chunk of stuff on their i agree FULLY with!

I especially feel that way about games with cute character designs. The amount of times i'll log 4+ hours into one sitting, and STILL find time to draw fanart afterwards is astonishing. With your choice of pic, that artists work is STUNNING (Odin Sphere, Muramasa, GrimGrimoire, etc). The amount of detail and fluidity blows my mind.

P.S. Escaflowne is still one of the greatest 'classic' anime out there. I don't even know how many times i've watched the movie! (or listened to its soundtrack)
