I got the rest of the stuff I ordered~! X3
The art book I got...it's big and I think the pictures are better quality than my last one (I have some of the same artists in this one, but I get to see some of them in better quality 'cause they're bigger! >:D), but the information wasn't as fun and there were TONS of spelling mistakes and other types of mistakes, I was surprised. But, if I just looked at the art, it was pretty good...though small parts of some pictures would go onto the other page, which I thought was annoying 'cause I can't really mentally connect the two and that part of the picture wasn't totally needed...sometimes...O.o;
I think they should have some artbooks made in a kind of binder and switch between wide to thin pictures so there aren't those kinds of pictures all messed up on the page. I don't think people would mind turning the book around and around if it means getting some good quality.
And then I got volume 2 of DOGs, so my inspiration juices are filled! >:D
I like seeing what the artists put in their messages in their artbooks...so now it's made me start thinking...
What kind of art do I do and what kind of art do I want to do...like what I want to express with my art?
Ah! First a quick question 'cause I was reading somewhere about artist's styles and how they're very common. Somebody posted saying that everyone's art looks like somebody elses, and that since they probably took parts from their favourite artists they probably look similar to that artist for that reason.
So I'd like to know, who's art is mine similar to? Liike what artist am I like?
...Just wondering...And you can say more than one. I can never understand how people can notice that my art is mine...I don't see my style...O.o;
Maybe this information could help me steer myself into a style that I really want.
I want a style with a good use of colours, very colourful, and very glowy and bright. I like glowy and bright pictures! *.*
Also, I think I should start trying to do higher quality pictures. Quality isn't really in me forte...buuut I think I should at least attempt it. I think I should also attempt to do the following from now on:
Backgrounds
Realistic Lighting
Cell-shading
High quality
And I need to express myself more! >:-
I actually did some expressive pictures in my sketchbook of the kinds of stuff I like. Like with the hairdos and make-up, but I think it looked a bit weird to other people.
I want to design my characters in a really nice style already...or at least draw them more...>3> I can't think of anything for Klan. I have to peal back something...or something...
I want to redesign Ran, because she's...weird...O.o; I dunno, I just don't know her that well, so I need to redesign her. I'm also thinking of going back and redesigning some old characters...just 'cause I still have a heart for those...I still want to draw Chidori-ai Fuwafuwa...>3> And I still want to draw Allison. Actually...I really like Allison, still, I just don't know what to do with her.
Oh! I noticed this a few days ago...but...I realized why I like Godot so much. He's like a spicy coffee (chai tea~! :D) version of K'! O.O In my eyes, at least. See, compare:
Not exactly similar...so maybe it wasn't K' that Godot reminded me of...but somebody reminds me of Godot and I don't know who it is...TT^TT
I think I should go and do something now! XD
