hi hero my friend hero. i love your art and wanted to ask you what thing(s)) you think most influenced your art style. like i rly enjoy your shapes and am curious if there was a deliberate development there

BLURRYYY my friend blurry :).... thank you!!

tbh when i think of things that influenced my art i think abt 2000s/early 2010s anime the most... specifically pokemon bcuz i grew up with it and its also when/what i started drawing as a kid. i also think the few years i was obsessed w megaman had a Huge influence on my style too. (in fact i still rly Rly like a lot of my old megaman sketches and feel like some of them are some of my best lol) it wasn't one i grew up with but i think the battle network/nt warrior anime is a really great example of the kind of style i was influenced by and still love and appreciate. funnily enough, some of the artists i was rly inspired by from megaman also worked on pokemon stuff, like hitoshi ariga :]...

nowadays its kind of hard to pinpoint since i tend to study and draw lots of inspiration from many many different artists, but i think they all still fall into the category of that very stylized and cute/anime kind of look. a lot of media thats heavily stylized and have cute and fun graphics still grab my attention and inspire me a lot lol.. (like hat and bloons)

also yeees shapes 👀... i think i use squares the most tbh, i rly like those Angles and curves

#asks #thank u for this also it was fun to think and write abt!! #its kind of funny cuz i think megaman is why i used to draw characters super long #and then bloons is when i compressed them again #so basically anime and videogames hgjdks #notable mention also to sonic and kirby and vocaloid community #last one is way too big to cover
