Masakazu Katsura is a big influence of mine.

Also Yoshihiro Togashi for writing quite possibly the best Manga ever created.. and also not Yoshihiro Togashi for going on hiatus so often when I so desperately want to read said manga ><


Edit: I should read Topics more carefully, I haven't written any comics yet but I guess you could say I highly respect the work of the author/artists above.


And what manga did they make?

Also Marmalade is the only one here with a manga even going on.

For me its Togashi for story(hunter X hunter) and art(YuYu Hakusho). Also like a good 40% of my art is inspired by Eiichiro Oda, 5% Yoshio Sawai(BoBoBo),the rest comes from like American comics and a good bit of story telling aswell. And surprisingly enough I got some inspiration from a few Shakespear works aswell :0

I have quite a few.
A) I mean, ever since I was little I loved to draw, but I took on people's artstyles, copied them, mixed and matched, added my own touch, and eventually came up with my own artstyle.
B) The manga and anime today have strange yet good storylines, I adapt to the ideas and come up with my own.
C) The manga Full Metal Alchemist made me re-think everything about my manga's storyline. The manga Death Note opened up my mind to new possibilities. The mangas 666 Satan and DragonBall helped me develop my artstyle.

For the small handful of comics I've tried, I've been greatly inspired by Richard Isanove. I love the way his coloring makes everything so moody. He's done work on the Dark Tower series and Wolverine: Origin.

My last post, I said "a little" of Tony Taka.

Now that I've actually started to look at more of his stuff, I gotta say he's gonna become my greatest influence. Kentaro's good, but Tony's got a fantasy-style flair that just looks really good to me.

I don't doubt you, but those styles are WAY different.

I dont have that many influences... thats maybe the main reason why my drawings are sort of bad DX

But... let me see......mmm:

* Andrew Loomis - Based all of my charicatrues and most of my non manga drawing style on him
* Masashi Kishimoto - Got me into manga, based my early style on him
* Hiromu Arakawa - Expressions, humor and some character stuff
* Hyung-tae Kim - My body perspective drawings are mostly inspired by his (eventhough i still fail)
* Random internet artists - I dont know their names, but their pictures are really awesome.
* Hayao Miyazaki - BGs and landscapes.

ok, maybe i got some influences xD

I got a lot of my style from Mark Crilley, from his how to draw videos....
Also Christopher Hart, from his how to draw manga books....

I get some inspiration from CLAMP and many other anime/manga creators.

GOD, I HATE Hart. T_T All of the drawings in those books done by him are terrible, and some of the stuff in them is less about helping people make art and more about helping them confirm to annoying manga stereotypes and tropes. *rage*

*cough*

Anyway, pretty much everyone has a style. It's impossible not to have one if you have even a little skill in art.

I'm not sure about my on influences. I know I went through a YuGiOh period.

I am in a Yu-Gi-Oh period... D8 It's pretty much taken over my entire style.

As for influences, there's obviously Kazuki Takahashi (Yu-Gi-Oh)...although it's more influenced on his style by the very end of the manga. Lots of hatch lines, and eyes slightly different. Not his style early on in the manga, which has more of a bolder look with a lot of screentone for shading.

I think another influence would really be Takao Aoki, who drew Beyblade's original manga. Beyblade was really the only manga/anime I was into as a kid, and would copy the manga's drawings like crazy. (Getting those Beyblades down was a pain...never did do it...)

There's also a slight hint of Ken Akamatsu in my artwork that happens to slip through. Again, this being more of the style that Negima has a good ways into the story (like volume 17/18 or so) instead of what he had during Love Hina and the earlier chapters of Negima.
