I don't care how talented he was, he never managed to turn his art into something culturally relevant. Kim Jung Who? I'll just remember him as "the cube guy".
>>8058952he ain't dead, he faked his early 'departure' to become a full time coomer.
>>8058952Nigger wrote this like his opinion matters kek
I really like his drawingsit's kinda lame that most of his legacy will be a bunch of yt grifters shilling "how to draw like kjg" courses
>>8058952>*gong crashes*>"wacthru crosery, gaijin piggu">*starts drawing rote memorized figures and animals in perspective*>"you need to be drawing 24 hour a day, white devir">*draws chinamen in fish eye perspective*>*scowls*>"buy my course, foorish no draw, or you never gonna make it">*dies of aids or whatever*
>>8058982>*scowls*How would you tell if he was scowling or not?
>>8058952In a way he was a performance art tbhdesu
>>8058952If he was truly irrelevant you wouldn’t be using him for bait
he's Buckethead of drawing it's more about showing off technical skill than the final product
>>8058956I am a trustfund kid and planning to fake my death too, been trying to contact few ukrainian russian guys who give people new identities.
>>8058952>he never managed to turn his art into something culturally relevant.What, you don't think his thousands of scribbles were culturally relevant!? You boorish swine!
>>8058952I think its because kjgs art is cluttered despite having good skills. When you look at iconic famous art, the compositions are usually simple and easy to follow and pleasing to look at. When you look at a lot of kjgs art, theres so much to look at, its overwhelming, and it just makes you ignore it.>>8058967>it's kinda lame that most of his legacy will be a bunch of yt grifters shilling "how to draw like kjg" coursesI'm mad for him. People are just scamming beginners who don't know any better. People think they'll be able to get to kjgs level in only a few years. The people selling these courses are actually pretty low level themselves too, I even saw one who proudly said he didn't bother studying anatomy and many other fundies in a video shilling his course. And I also hate his copy cats in general, they never make anything appealing despite all the studying and grinding. But I guess thats what you get from drawing thousands of boxy mannequins in ugly angles instead of what you really like. Anyone who tries to draw like kjg is souless, and anyone who sells courses on how to draw like him is a scammer.
>>8058952I'm kinda glad he died before ai, he died in peace.
>>8058952>something culturally relevant.What does this even mean? That millions of retarded american moutbreather mutts gobble up your products because their Jew overlords tell them to?kjg was literally compared to greats like Katsuja Terada. That's the definition of making it.
>>8058952He inspired a whole generation of artists and is talked about daily 4 years after his passing
>>8059135Unrelated queston.Have the big ones ever made good tutorials/courses on how to learn to draw, that isn't a glorified "watch me drawing"?
>>8059152>the big onesAgain what does that even mean? There are great artists who did tutorials yes. But usually they are occupied with making art instead of teaching.KJG was pretty much jus as talented as Terada if not even more. He just chose to do teaching to because his way of creating fits to it.
>>8059165Gooks confirmed to be niggers
>>8059155It means a reputable artist, ESL anon. Reputation makes one 'big' in any industry, so I'm shocked you couldn't figure this one out.
>>8059165Oh shit, I forgot the eyebrows
>>8059167I don't care if americans gobble up a product. It doesn't say anythign about the quality of an artist. Normies are mentally disabled anyway so who cares what's populare?
>>8059122He has some non cluttered stuff My fav drawings by him are actually the ones he did to sign books for people, quick drawings where he uses just enough strokes to get an idea down, they look really goodBut the big cluttered massive canvas ones are what got him famous so naturally he started doing those more and more
>>8059155>>8059135You should look up Terada’s video by ArchipelIt’s interesting how he’s such a serious and melancholy artist where KJG didn’t take it seriously at all and was just having fun 90% of the timeIm not saying one approach was better than the other, just that they were such different people
>>8059187I think it has to do with the culture they came from.Japan has a flourishing art culture. Terada became a celebrity there so he took his job seriously.Korea doesn't have an art culture like this. Even tho Jung Gi was easily on the same level as Terada he just never had the same opportunities because he didn't grow up in 80s Japan.
he has literally thousands of clones and copypasters but not a single one of them has the same level of machine details or implied violence. note that every one of them only does random animals and restaurants and morphings - harmless events.i still remember a now age-gated youtube interview video where Gi recounts an IRL event where he helped someone move their drunk unconscious spouse up into a hotel room. then he went on to draw a continuation comic where it became a full guro sequence of him and the spouse straight up eating the drunk one in the hotel room. still makes me kek thinking about it.rest in peace KING
>>8059168Ah its perfect now
>>8059249I'll take sarcasm over nothing, friend
>>8059193>he has literally thousands of clones and copypasters but not a single one of them has the same level of machine details or implied violence.Yeah his clones draw weirdly simple art compared to kjg, even the more advanced ones don't really push the amount of detail. I think they keep things simple to post more, cause their posting is advertising. They also keep things family friendly generally cause it means more followers, which equals more possible customers for their courses.Its crazy how almost everything his clones do is for profit. I'm not even sure if I've seen one yet that does kjg style stuff purely for fun.
>>8059193I noticed that too in many artists like him. They want to use their skill as a vehicle for their weird fantasies, meanwhile the copy-cats just want to mimic the visuals, instead of the passion behind it. It's a rare biological example of mindless parasite beings trying to mimic a soulful spiritual creation, for whatever reason
>>8058952Does anybody actually enjoy his work as art pieces outside of the technical aspect? At best I go "oh that's kind of cool" when I see some of his work, but I've never been emotionally moved by anything he's made. His work has never made me deeply reflect or identify with something from my own experience in life.I think this anon >>8059122 identified the problem for me, being>kjgs art is cluttered despite having good skills.

>>8059191I had no idea Katsuya Terada was seen as being bigger / more popular in their respective countries, really interesting. Imo KJG mogs him quite easily
>>8059425Terada has been around since the 90s already. When did people start giving a shit about kim jung gi? 2015?Obviously Terada is more famous in Japan.
>>8059397That's because its not fun. Its like doing differential calculus for fun
>>8059425Terada is pretty huge, helped by working on big projects like early Zelda games
>>8059193I got his new omphalos sketchbook and it’s full of werewolves fucking women and all sorts of other nsfw stuffHis manager said something before about how they had to start keeping his crazy stuff to themselves because of Chinese laws on obscenity or something
