you should all check this guy out. his work is fucking awesome.

>>2164214
aha. this google shit always makes me giggle

>>2164214
I wish we could ban these dog fractals (that are now on every board) as they make me feel sick.

Saw a lot of Hudson River school at the National Gallery in DC, back when I was about 16. Never had been so inspired artistically, and still haven't.

>>2164080
Hard to pick which Frazetta but this one was the first painting of his that I ever saw.

>>2164328

You must paint a lot of van murals.

>>2164216
>>2164217
shit, I was just looking at thumbnails and posted the wrong one. here the original:

>>2165362

I'll bite

I've been trying to become a more "painterly" painter and embrace the physical attributes of the medium, so stuff like pic related have been a big source of inspiration lately.

>>2164080
If there was a gallery for this guy's background characters on this show or more of his artwork, I would be so happy.

>>2165444
jesus...

>>2165456
"Jesus, guy, how can you have such plebeian taste," "Jesus, that's awesome" or are you making a prayer in the fashion of your personal religion?

inb4 abstract blows..

>>2165462
Not that anon, but assumedly the former.

Honestly it's not that bad, other than that terrible figure with red hair.

>>2165475
I don't know that I'd really call that image abstract.

>>2165486
Yeah, that's a huge gripw with the show. Amazing non-moving background characters, shittily-drawn moving characters.

>>2164216
love this, what kind of stuff would you need to make something like this. I have a tan paper sketchbook and am thinking about going art shopping again soon

I pretty much started drawing seriously just because of Viktor Antonov. Guy behind HL2 and Dishonored world design.

>>2165735
I had a book of Spare's drawings when I was a kid. I only just realized how much he affected my aesthetics. I think he influenced a lot of people's favorite artists, and their favorite artists. The guy was fucking out there. I don't even want to read about his weird-ass philosophies, but man were his drawings fucking cool.

>>2164080

>>2165444
That character in the foreground is out of perspective. Or he's standing in a hole.

Honestly as generic as it is to like the chinese on this board, I like their cool colors.

>>2165787
Hoping to mix it with something a palette like this someday

My current style is affected by so many things, yet few I can name. Akseli Gallen-Kallela is one who captures the dusty light in a smoke sauna, that I try to study. Also Hugo Simbergs works had a strong impact while I was younger.

Pic related, "first lesson" by Gallen-Kallela.

>>2165513
try looking into staff at the studio who does it and look up who works on their backgrounds if you like it. Sometimes the background artists and the animators are entirely separate groups and you might be able to find someone who just does the background art for the show.

>>2165749
Redon is really great, nice taste.

>>2165787
You know, this one looks really good, looks like pre raphaelite and other figurative avant-gardes

>pic related, glorious early byzantine art

>>2165444
Why the fuck is the main character a complete garbage, while background characters are so gooood? Were these drawn by different artists?

>>2165912
Artist name?

This guy. I love his stuff.

>>2164080
I really want to mix these together.
>going to git gud
>draw some cool deities

>>2167737
You're going to need to get very good at light/shadow manipulation for the Baroque feel then.

>>2167737
i want a mixture of michelangelo's anatomy mixed with the simple hindu paintings. Homer's ability to color is going to become a concern once I get anatomy down

Chris Sanders, Lostfish, Barbara Canepa, Matteo De Longis among others.

>>2167762
>Barbara Canepa
hell yes. love the skydoll style.

>>2167782
I know! The whole baroque meets sci-fi is just gorgeous, and the whole comic is so well made. You know they will be releasing the fourth chapter in colors "soon"?

Giger and drawings from the manga BLAME!

>>2167798
>You know they will be releasing the fourth chapter in colors "soon"?
it's a bit like half life of comic books, it would seriously be about fucking time.

>>2168256
I don't know too much about half life, but Sudra, the fourth and final chapter is already out in french without color. Barbara regularly post updates from the coloring process on her Facebook page, but I've learnt that "coming soon" means "coming in a few years" with these people... The good thing is that some English company should have been able to get the right plus a translation of the script in order by the time the colored version comes out, so hopefully we wont have to wait too long once its finally out.

I don't know about style, but Lady Frieda Harris deeply influenced my approach to composition and color. I also the depiction of the resonance and pervasiveness of a concept through geometry. I don't directly use any of it, but it informs a lot what I do.

>>2165486
Who is this artist? I very like that style

>>2165814
>>2165826
I think I may have found her. This woman's art is the closest that I could get out of all the art people I looked up.

excellent taste, anon

>>2171025
Not trying to hate on your taste in art or anything, but what do you find amazing about this?

>>2167737
op here I love this idea. keep going at it, guy

>>2165697

That guy's aesthetics are strong I feel you

>>2167737
who is the artist on the bottom image?

you guys should also post a piece of your art that shows where the inspiration shines through.

>>2172441
2nd best Superman story on a visual standpoint

>>2172274
You probably need to be more educated to see why it's amazing. Come back in a few years.

>>2172446
5/10
You're pretty good

>>2172441
It's weird, I love the line art on the top, and I love the colors, but I don't like how they blend together

>>2172484
Stuart Immonen is the kind of artist who's art varies depending on the colors. Most of the times, Immonen doesn't get to color his own art based on time constraints

The comic book making process in a big industry is a passive aggressive one

>>2172396
Homer Winslow

i will do what ever to takes to get to his level

Pic related.

>>2164080

>>2172931
right. and what is your current artstyle?

>>2172931
WOAH, NOW THAT IS WHAT I CALL BROKEN LIMBS.

Kazuma Kaneko

You can find most of his old and new work here

everything this guy scribbles

>>2172989
Nice. Soejima is also cool. That other Atlus artist who did SMT4 though is disappointing.

>>2165411
Who is this?

Akira changed the art game for me.
Lots of fighting games influenced me as well during high school

Most of Neckface's work actually...

>>2164965
Holy ancient powerful ancestor of kek

>>2172967
Stop posting, James.

>>2172989
I have this picture of Kaneko above my desk. It's a surprisingly good motivator.

fairly simple but i digged this when i was younger.
it doesn't really make an impression anymore. i wonder what i found so interesting here.

That is... surprisingly well down for what I'm assuming is a Byzantium piece.

I just can't keep the Watterson out when I do alien landscapes, I grew up reading him.

>>2164080

>>2181587
Byzantine is the word.
But Masaccio is Early Italian Reniassance.

I believe that Bill Watterson used a Winsor and Newton Series 7 brush to ink his comics, just thought i'd pass that info along to a fellow hobbes fan, not saying the tools make the artist.

>>2165895
Me too.
