Whoa, that's actually pretty amazing (not to mention much more interesting than what I was gonna say :3)
Nah I was gonna be super boring and affirm that I thought your artwork was very reminiscent of Killer7 and all that Suda51's mumbo jumbo (for the record, this is what I am talking about: [link]) because it reminded me of the blocky figures and how heavily shading is used to form the figure.

Actually, if you don't mind me being so bold about it, could you, if nothing's on your drawing bucket list, make a portrait of one of those guys from Killer7? Any of them would be really cool, but the ones I think would fit your style the most are Garcian [link] and Dan [link] Smith.

And oh, thanks a lot for telling me about those two artists, I didn't know either of them and I'm having such a such a ball looking at their stuff, thanks man!

I'm guessing you're referring to the KS pictures I've recently uploaded.
Firstly, thanks. I'm glad you like my work.

As for influence, I probably couldn't cite any individual artist. Though several of them are influenced by the Old Masters style of painting. I suppose if you were to take an individual painting then the 'Girl with a Pearl Earing' would give you an idea of where I get my approaches from: [link]

Though, trying to blend two seperate styles is very difficult.


For the majority of my work it's influenced by Feng Zhu and Syd Mead, because I do a lot of concept art based work also.

If you have something on your mind, go ahead and say it!

I am really liking these pictures, they're this mix of stylish blocky mixed with somehow creepy/tense vibes, it's really unique!

Just one question though, what's your artistc influence? Because I have something in my mind but I don't wanna sound snotty about it :c

I guess it depends what kind of background you're going for. But yes, perspective is all important in backgrounds, Aerial perspective especially.
You should watch Feng Zhu's digital painting tutorials on youtube, he covers a lot of stuff regarding backgrounds. Even if the subject matter or technique isn't your thing you could still learn a lot.

But yes hah, nothing beats hard practise! :P
