Its been years since his passing, can anyone fill his shoes?
you fill his shoes. He drew way too much. I think the only time he didn't drew is when he is eating something, need to go to some other place, or he sleeping
AI
i'll outlive him easily.
>>7942920some of the other superani guys have the same gimmick
>>7942920I think he's based and I wish I had a fraction of his talent, HOWEVER a lot of the stuff he liked to draw was ugly.
>>7942920Yeah, I’m up next.
I've always said that he didn't really do anything with his talents beyond doodling. I know he made one comic, and that's it really, in terms of professional artistic output.Yet everyone can't stop yapping about how awesome his scribbles were.They're nice scribbles for sure, but he never really bothered to push himself further, hey?
>>7942920I agree with the other anon: the other superani dudes already seem to be on par with him>>7943150Same. Also his more goal oriented work wasn't exactly mind blowing. Still incredibly skilled obviously, but he didn't really stand out in the sea of other highly skilled comic artist.His process and the way he made it look just so easy made up most of the magic around him as a person.
>>7943166He's a gimmick artist, someone who draws for an audience, but that's it. He was impressive because he could draw, not because of *what" he drew. When people discuss KJG, it's never about any specific, iconic piece of his. It's always about his body of work in general. Is that bad? No, but there's nothing particularly interesting about it either imo
>>7942920Why should anyone bother trying to fill them? He had a neat parlor trick, nothing more. Insanely talented and did nothing with it. Kind of a shame. I think the better you are naturally at drawing, the more it crowds out space for other things in your brain.
>>7943172>>7943237>>7943166I liked him because of his passion and love for drawing, he doesn't care that he's not creating a magnum opus, he doodled non stop because he loved doing it. It's a rare case of someone finding their 3 year old self with crayons again
>>7943150so brave!he was amazing. fuck the jealous nodraw dissenters
>>7943150>HOWEVER a lot of the stuff he liked to draw was ugly.I appreciate that so much. So many artists need everything they draw to be cute, moe, kawaii, I guess because their lives are so miserable and ugly that they need to draw cute things. Its repulsive to me, variety is the mark of a great artist, but people that draw anime girls over and over because they need cute and comfortable is so narrow minded. Do something different, surprise me in some way, because its boring as fuck when I know you will keep drawing the same shit over and over.
>>7943150He was famous for HOW he drew and not WHAT he drew
>>7945612Yeah it's bizarre. His work is so good, yet he draws all this weird busy, anxiety inducing shit. I mean it's cool in a way but I never find myself just appreciating his art.
>>7946163Indeed. It's just all clutter, and I can't really watch it with pleasure.I wish he made a good course to learn to draw or something. Did he ever do that?
>>7946201>Did he ever do that?he probably would have done something more structured for online dudes had he lived. he taught at a school he founded in koreahttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CGLIQvNk3zY&list=PLP1eO9GDDtAm0-4Z7uIB9-CVX5JVoOPHH
>>7946323Has this man ever used an eraser?
I don't understand the one-shotting a drawing meme. It's cool and all but you lose the benefit of trial and error during the thumbnail and sketch phases. Unless you want to be a public performer like KJG it seems pointless and even counterproductive.
>>7946473trial and error happens in your brain at this skill level. he descibes flying around the scene in his head and choosing viewpoints etc.
>>7946807In the end you still won't know how it actually looks until you put it down on paper. That composition you're thinking of might actually be shit, or a different color palette may be more appealing. Maybe somebody with super rare genetics can imagine all of this in their head, but considering how much of a mess many of KJG's compositions are I doubt even he had them.
>>7946960I remember him saying he doesn't really plan out his drawings, he just draws one thing and then whatever related thing that comes up in his head and so on
>>7946454Yes. Are you perhaps... stupid?
This guy unironically got killed by the vax
>>7947572yoshifumi kondo died in 98 of the same thing the exact same age.
>>7942920no and frankly i'm tired of seeing the shilling for imagination drawing on youtubegood draftmanship is way more important
>>7942920He took the jab.
>>7947603ai solved good draftsmanship. live drawing from imagination is the only drawing haven left
>>7947572>>7947618110% correct. Those who forced the vaccines are literally Satan.
>>7945580Ugliness is evil, subhuman
>>7947913no it hasn't and never will
His super stardom was only propped up by covid. He fell off just as quickly as he was thrust into the spotlight because at the time normies were all trying to stave off insanity during quarantine because they couldn't yap to other people. They took up things like art and saw Kim and they all thought he was le heckin magic wizard.He was very skilled, but there aren't any shoes to fill because he was only a novelty. That is all. Bye bye.
>>7948408he was well known(among artists) long before covid. I knew his work when he was up and coming, before social media had even taken hold(around 2008).
