Wow you can really see the influences.

God this guy has been so influential on history. Makes you sad to imagine all the other people that could have been as great, if not greater, but never came to be because of circumstance. Wonder however many potential Moebius' died in childhood or were never enabled or encouraged to do art.

Is this the main goal for every /ic/ poster? What about just doing interesting original art? Maybe even publish a comic of your own through some independent way? Hell, doing it through the internet with webcomics?
Who the fuck says that you need to pain photorealistic shit to have your work praised? Imagination and vision alongside with technical skill yes, but you don't need to create incredibly elaborated rendered drawings

Moebius was a master and he could do incredibly visually complex works. He could also achieve impressive results with simply, but intelligent usage of colors and details without overworking to much his renders.

I guess you can shit on creativity and focus on realistic texturing (like that meme image of the marine soldier concept /ic/ loves to throw around the board)

But there is more to a graphic artist than just create realistic concept art for games or movies.
I'm not saying what I posted is original, it is not and It wasn't drawn with that intention.

As I said, I saw that illustration and I felt inspired to do a quick doodle with that pose in mind, but having such a simplistic notion of what an artist should aim that regarding his career and what should value most.

You have a very limited view in my opinion
