he is pretty good i will say, he needs to stop talking to gaijins tho
>>
looked him/her up. too derivative, needs to find his voice.
>>
I have to agree, he is highly skilled, better than me, better than 99% of /ic/, but he has no style. It's just copy paste
>>
>>7759521
Do you know how many imamura copycats are running around right now? I'm tempted to make a chart/list just to show you the ones I've come across
>>
>>7759655
Go ahead.
>>
His sketches are nice but how can someone be a great "illustrator" if they've never illustrated? Don't think he's posted a single completed piece
>>
>>7759655
I thought I was insane for noticing this too lol.
>>
soul
what size brush?
what pen?

These are just the ones I noticed, you're absolutely free to dispute (some of these may be questionable, like kawatiw, some1else etc.). It's hard to say whether this is due to Imamura or more of a general trend among anime artists. What's certain is that most of these artists began to incorporate certain aspects of his style in early 2023, right around the time Onimai aired. I'm probably mistaken but I could swear even Houtengeki has taken some (subtle) influence from him

Also these aren't that representative of their personal work, ended up picking coomer-friendly 1girl white void pictures for simplicity's sake. Should I cherrypick those which show Imamura's influence most clearly or select their more individual but fleshed-out pieces?

Nadia? She has short hair.

The words you're looking for is "he's copying Bengus".

Yeah, no. His dorontabi influence is stronger.

i find ryou imamura's drawings really ugly. the way he draws details on the body makes them look like weird segmented dolls or skeletons with flesh shrink-wrapped onto them. his hands especially are ugly as sin. his imitators largely look better than him, at least as illustrators. i'm sure he's a better animator than all of them.

My only problem with him is his aversion to waists. They're all fridges. I'm sure it wasn't that bad before.

i like him a lot
his male character drawings are especially cool

>>7759931
It wouldn't be a very big leap to go from sketch to completed work, his core drawing skills are already very solid

i love these little comic strips he occasionally draws.

One third of the people I follow on xitter classify as greatest of our times and most of them don't even have some sort of industry job
>>
>>7764400
That's usually because they live in bumfuck nowhere where there's little industry and most companies like you working onsite. If distance wasn't an issue, most currently working professionals would be fucked.
