His execution of his "lame ideas" is usually great tho.

But you are right in a sense, only artists buy his books. At Comic-conventions there's not a huge crowd gathered around him like at artist workshops.

Kinda sad tbh but he has a lot of good years ahead of him so maybe things will change?

I'm rooting for you kim jungi!

This, tbh.

It's sad when people say "he's a savant", "he's a genius" to imply that he didn't have to put any effort into what he does.

The jealousy of some people is really scary.

You're right, but there are also very few willing to dedicate the insane amount of time he has

I'm waiting for the day he picks up oils. Judging by his watercolors he would probably be a top class painter in a few years.

>> No.2260163

He is really good because when he was in the army he kept drawing everything he saw and I guess he knew how to draw before going to army

Why won't he work in some big shot comics studio or Disney or whatever?

>> No.2260170

He just draws his ass off. That's all there is to it. I remember during one of his lectures I atteneded, someone in the audience asked him if he had a photographic memory. He said no, but if he did he wouldn't be drawing for a living.

The "big studios" don't demand you to produce your style. They want you to be a mindless drone copying another person's style and mass-producing it.

It looks like the guy has only practiced his own style because he does everything the same way. I doubt any studio would want him, I imagine he could be a pain to adapt to someone else's work.

tl;dr being a faceless monkey is more important to a studio than individual skill

The fact you don't have them popping up all the time isn't proof of anything, other than most people don't work as hard at something as he does. There are plenty of artists coming out all the time who are equally as good at what they do, you're not going to get another one all the time unless people tried to draw like him and took the same road to promoting themselves.

>>2260195
>tl;dr being a faceless monkey is more important to a studio than individual skill

You sound like your talking out of you ass, or just completely naive about what a concept art job/ how a production pipeline works. If a studio wants him to design something for them because they like how he draws or his ideas of course they'd take him on for a project. Just because you're a special snowflake and no studio understands "muh vision" and wont hire you doesn't mean that's how things work. Stop projecting.

>> No.2263392

>>2263377
He did a demo and explained how he sees everything as boxes in space and then drew some examples. A d/ic/k was present and took photos and posted them in a thread here a month or two back. It turned into a sort of meme (not sure if it really is a full meme status) about boxes everywhere.

It's the opposite, really. I used to have a hard time committing to things, and learning how to be disciplined was a big breakthrough for me, but by now I've met enough people who were more hardworking than me and just didn't advance beyond a certain point to know that that isn't why I'm doing well.

I'm not saying you need 'talent' to succeed or anything like that, but hard work and guts are pretty useless by themselves. If you want to draw like KJG you need to do more than just put in 'the work'. Art isn't fucking weightlifting. Repetition won't get you anywhere. You need to gain a higher understanding of what you are doing to make progress.

I went to one of his shows earlier this year and he didn't strike me as autistic, and if he is it's probably pretty mild. Either way he was able to get his own school off the ground and have a wife and kids. I doubt his autism, if he has it, affects him in any negative way.

Nigger draws all the time though, and if he isn't drawing, he's doodling. Learn to do that better you faggots.

>>2260010
I'm a huge fan of his too, but I doubt he's suffering. Getting invited to do lectures all over the place, selling books at 100bux a pop, and selling pieces for thousands/hundreds of dollars, and that's ignoring his day job. He draws for himself and he's got a fanbase that supports him. I'd say he's living the dream, but who can say for sure.

He loves inked girls.

Anyway, I truly believe he is gifted. Some pro artists believes in that too. There are limits to training and some people just do better than others, that's the world.
Anyway I know he is a super hard worker who draw even when making sex probably.
