Yusuke Murata and Dan Mora are both insanely skilled, but honestly their work has never really done it for me. It's too clean. The linework is so precise it loses that handmade feeling liike something got ironed out of it. Murata especially, his stuff is so polished it genuinely looks digital sometimes, even though it's not. Every line is perfect, every detail cranked up as far as it'll go. Impressive, sure, but it ends up feeling a little soulless.Mora has the same problem. Technically solid, but once you clock the same-face thing you can't let it go. Change the hair and the outfit and half his characters are the same person. It feels more like production than actual drawing.Good art doesn't need to be rough or messy. It just needs to feel like a person made it.
>>7931497post more examples of your preference to good art. Murata figures look too thin. Dan Mora is still drawing the standard of American comic artists around conceptart.org was still around. So yeah it looks too polished for your eyes.
>>7931497I prefer Mora's linework.
>>7931529I'm not saying they are bad. It's just they seem lifeless.
>>7931497>Murata especiallythat's understandable, Murata only strength is his technical skills, He lacks the je ne sais quoi which is why he's only been an artist drawing for mangakas/writers
>>7931497Murata's basically permanently burntout after Eyeshield 21. If u go back and look at the all the drawings he did for that series, it feels like a completely artist.
>>7932586>>7931497No??? Murata is fucking animating his own doodles of Saitama and even did that short animated series on Twitter called "Zaiyuki". His drawings for One Punch man are sexy and phenomenal. I never thought I'd ever see the day where if hear slander about Murata sensei being a bad illustrator, he's one of the best of all time in my opinion
