Cerebus the Aardvark comics.

The strangeness of a cartoon character among more realistically portrayed ones intrigued me.

Some kid on a forum was talking shit and flexing fairly mediocre art skills, I decided I would one day mog him.

I don't even remember his name or what the drawings look like, for all I know he was actually really good and he's now one of those foreign animators they hire when they want One Piece to look better for five minutes. Or he gave up and got a job at the post office, found a wife and had two kids like everyone else.

I remember one day I saw Itoh Sei's work and was so awestruck I couldn't draw for a week. Left me wondering wth I was doing with my life when there's someone out there that can draw this well.
I'd been drawing before but was just kinda "drifting", since then I've been paddling towards something but I'm not sure what

Cerebus and Bone are the reason I realized I’ll never be white. Literally what’s the appeal of these comics? I just don’t get it.

Earliest one I can remember, we were tasked to make some visual art for personalized yearbook covers all the way back when I was in grade 2, and I picked this one to try and recreate lel

Nothing in particular. I'm more a fan of manga and stories than of single artworks.

I already drew all the time as a kid, but when I was 10 and saw this it sparked something more.

I made a post in /beg/ showing something I got commissioned of one of my characters
and Subu drew this as a reply

I was like "I need to do this"
And picked up art again after I crashed and burned from it before
I've been drawing everyday since

way before I had access to the internet at home I would buy nintendo magazines because they were the only source of video game related things I had available. I got bombarded by a shitload of official art from many different games and artists and I thought they looked so cool I began drawing trying to copy them.

It wasn’t any one single piece, but really just the totality of video games and anime that I grew up with, and my desire to create my own works like that

Isn't that the guy that traces over AI constantly?

Probably Newgrounds, honestly. Seeing that single people could make cartoons themselves, and seeing genuinely well drawn indie cartoons like Bitey of Brackenwood, made me want to learn how to draw to make similar things.

While I still adore animation, I'm more interested in just drawing and picture making -- for now, at least. Maybe I'll give animation a proper go, one day.

Idk man. Some of my earliest memories were playing with paint and drawing what I saw. 100% if my father wasn't a piece of shit that didn't want me to succeed id be a lot further ahead than I am now

I played gartic phone with them a couple years ago. They were skilled enough to where I could see them being able to replace some high quality work if given enough time, but clearly had room to grow.

I remember seeing a bunch of ads in the back of gaming magazines for japanese exclusive games you could get imported. I recall seeing pic related, Morrigan from Darkstalkers, and others.

I was inspired by comics of the 90’s, which is why my art sucks ass.

Falcoon, because he made drawing look easy and fun

I was using AI to generate sexy elves (picrel), didn't like the results I got, and decided I could do it better. I was wrong, but drawing is fun, and I think my rate of improvement has been fine over the past month. I don't think it's beyond me to learn to make something that looks like this but without all the retarded AI artifacts. Just might take a few years.

I drew with them once too on Drawpile. They made the Koharu and mentioned in the chat they do art fulltime for card games. They seem all right to me.
