>>10739518Thanks!
>>10739524You should read my full article. I address the differences between the corporate-created anime style and newer, independent takes on it. There are good examples of beautiful anime art in the vein you're talking about if you look for them. Keep in mind that today there are so many mediocre artists who copy what they see and post online. There's a lot to wade through but there are needles in the haystack. For example, pic related is an attempt at using detailed shading in conjunction with the anime style. You can find a lot of unique and interesting art if you look beyond the basic, popular things. Just like any medium, really.
>>10739528Thanks, anon.
>>10739530There's a difference between demonstrating your point with apt examples and cherry picking. It's only cherry picking if your point doesn't hold true for a larger sample size. If you think I'm wrong, show me some counterexamples.
>>10739532Never heard of this guy. I'll check him out.
