fake moetoko wouldn't win a fight with that gesture

Gesture is essentially what makes a pose feel natural, so pretty important I'd say.

She wouldn't win a fight with a "burn knuckle"?

What if someone finds the original photo?

>>4526740
use the way back machine to find one that is not posted anymore, so it will be harder, or take your own

>>4526740
nobody will care

i just looked at the thumbnail and thought "holy shit what the fuck this is real bad, how many japanese dicks did ilya have to suck to get to japan with this level of work?"

You do know all Ilya does is character designs right? That guy will never have the courage to actually do a piece in motion, let alone animation. So please don't blame him for the stiff poses in this op, nor the disgusting CG of the show. No, blame him for making soft a e s t h E t i c characters that blend into the background and neglect the entire style and mood gits is known for, solely because the creators think "trying different things to spice up the original" is a legitimate business model. Don't blame him for drawing cute girls. Blame the people instead that thought this is what we wanted to see.

He already has tried more different things seriously than 99.9% people here, or artists in general. Look at coom artists - they are stuck, they will never do anything significantly different.

Nobody decides to grind to become an animator in middle of their career - there is no money in it. Animators are almost most marginalized underpaid staff members of an anime production.

So... yeah. It would be bad for all the reasons for someone like him to try to do animation, focus is important.

I actually think 0% western illustrators have what it takes to become an animator working for Japanese studio, you gotta start early and have strong passion for it, and grind non stop. Need a lot of discipline for that.

He was asked to draw Major in some action poses, the kind you can imagine on figurines, possibly in poses he didnt even choose. I dont see the problem.

Instead of spending your time following this guy like a fangirl with a hateboner focus on your improvement.
Yeah, Ilya is ruining his own career, do you really need to be told that ?

He directed AND illustrated the ED, he has the highest level of creative control here.

What is contrapose in the context? I only know contrapposto. Google doesnt help.

those poses look so bad, shit on me all you want but at least I can draw my dumb doodles in whatever pose I want.

Wow so much skill, ilya should bow to you.

He drew (related) these in 2014 fyi.
