What's up with memes all of a sudden?
Aiee. Strange urge to answer these kinds of things, sorry >.<

Anywho. I guess these are the stuff that influence me when it comes to art.

W.I.T.C.H Good lord, I remember this comic. I used to doodle these characters back in my Grade School days (these were the only things I drew, actually) and because of this, I was introduced to the world of comics. And such awesome world it is.

Neopets The biggest spot on the map. It's freaky to see that that place was very influential. It still is, even though I left it. Somehow, their art continues to inspire, and thinking about that place just brings back memories of 2007. That's when I actually decided to pursue art, and it's all because of it and its site contests.

Pixar and Disney Watching their movies always seem to uplift me and get me out of those art dumps. A dream, a dream.

Monster Allergy comics I've always loved their art style. Plus, their comics are luff. One of the greatest influences in my world of comic.

Avatar the Last Airbender The awesome art, the awesome concept, and the awesome story. Nothing can't be more inspiring than this show (for me.)

Skies Whenever I'm in a sour mood and just refuse to draw, I look up pictures of skies to try and calm myself. And it works.

Coffee, Ice Cream and Chocolates If the skies don't work, coffee and sweets are the way to go.

HP book art You know those little art things before each chapter? Well, I find them pretty and inspiring. When I was, well, younger and had just discovered the very first Harry Potter book, I've always wanted that kind of art style. So it inspired me to sketch things and doodle things more often. Plus, they're nice to look at. I'd often spend a few minutes just staring at those pictures and just... absorbing them. Okay. I was a weird kid back then. xD

Naruto Watching all 200++ episodes of Naruto can really do a lot of things to a person. This one inspired me to be more... creative in character design. (See how each of the characters rarely look like each other? All of them are unique O_O and there are a LOT of characters in this show.) The creativity hasn't happened, but I do hope it sinks in.

Code Geass ...actually I just felt like putting that in. < 3

Friends Online and real life, artists (especially those in Neopets' BC boards) and non-artists... they're the ones who inspired me to keep drawing. And still do. You are loved.
Oh and I meant to make that bigger. But having a big, big black space over there is just too... weird. Aesthetically.


*also, all pictures used in this belong to their respective artists. Disney, Neopets, Pixar, Nickelodeon... etc.

Nothing else will get me to draw.

I totally agree with you about neopets! I mean, it sounds like neopets is just a dopey, cheesy little site for 7 year olds but really it's very influential, especially with the fellow neopians and the plots and all... when I re-discovered neopets I was also determined to get better at art. c8

And ohgosh. PIXAR/DISNEY = <3333

Yes, Pixar and Disney~ inspiration.

As for neopets, I think it's because some people see it only as a gaming site with
kiddie games, but when one gets to the boards (especially the BC)... well, that's a different story.
It's not... cheesy nor kiddie at all xD
So you've gone back over there?

Yesss~ <33

Yeah, that's exactly what I thought! XDD

Mmhm, I used to play when I was like.... 5 and then I quit for sometime because I got bored of the games... |D When I was 9, I found out the username/password in my inbox that was lettered a million years ago so I went back on and I found the NT! SUPER INSPIRATION TIME XDDD

Then I found the BC boards and all the amazing people (including you) and I was like "ALDSKFJ I'M TOTALLY GOING TO BE LIKE THEM OR AT LEAST TRY AW YEAHHHH" XDD

Yeah, I know right? XDD The account with the most interesting stuff is seaside_7 (because my da name is totally creative, you know it ;DD ), but I have to update it. Geez, school has been giving me a lot of work ;A; And I'm not a comic maker (though I'd like to be |DD ) because I'm terrible at making jokes! And when I do they're terribly corny. XDD But I do have some pictures up over there. That need updating. hm. I'll do that later today >>

Haha, it was actually more like.... iwasstalkingyou |DDD It's okay, YOUR MEMORY HAS NOT FAILED YOUUU ;m;

Heh. That makes two of us. "Creativity" ftw XDD

As for comics... well, if you're not a joker, be a seriousplotter!
They accept those, apparently xD Saves those terribly cursed people -coughlolincludingmecough-
from the perils of effective joke-making.
