@YokooArt@peridoxikal I'm DawnStar, an artist striving for improvement, who mostly draws traditionally using PrismaColor colored pencils for: My Hero Academia canon characters/OC, Kirbys, etc. I also use Adobe Illustrator/Photoshop as well for my digital art!
Persepolis has been a cornerstone of my teaching since day one. True, it uses some cartoonish (no pun intended) imagery of Iran. But if you want a deeper understanding of any culture, you need exactly works like this, ones that carry the author’s fiercely held convictions.
I think American Werewolf In London has one of the most brilliant werewolf designs ever.
It manages to blend both human and lupine anatomy together so seamlessly that I genuinely get an uncanny valley feeling when I look at it. It's hard to distingish between wolf and man.
