Here's one from the same book from OP.

OHNONONONONONO LOOMIS BROS WE GOT TOO COCKY!

Has anyone ever achieved anything unironically through LOOMIS?

We need a compendium of Japanese artists literally recommending/using Loomis so retards like OP can finally shut the fuck up.

I mean, Loomis is pretty well known in Japan too. I've got a pic of a mangaka recommending Loomis and some other western instructors, pretty similar to what /ic/ recommends actually, but I can't find the damn thing anywhere.

The thing is that Loomis only teaches you the basics of construction, how the parts are built and put together.
To do animu- or really any good art to be fair, though animu especially is really big on minimalism and conservation of detail- you have ANOTHER step to learn: that is, you have to learn to IMPLY forms without directly and explicitly drawing and outlining each and every feature, and for a beginner that's very difficult. So they end up frustrated and blame their failure to understand that on Loomis or whoever they're learning from.

The japanese version of Loomis is still Loomis, you mongoloid.
