*The pictures posted are not mine and serve as reference only! They belong to their creator Q Hayashida, with all rights reserved.* After a month or two of floundering around thinking about what art style I ultimately want to aim for, I've made a decision. I don't want to go for the photo-realistic, glossy, or cutesy type stuff that is the most prevalent. While it does looks nice, it's not what inspires me. I forgot that I already had my answer long ago and was just ignoring it. I'm going to make a personal commitment to try to have an art style similar to Q Hayashida, whose work is featured below. This is the kind of stuff I look at and really feel a sense of awe, and it's no stretch to say that if I hadn't come across her work, I probably wouldn't have made the leap to try to become a mangaka. Is it going to be extremely hard? Absolutely. Her art is almost unimaginable for me. I'm not quite sure where to even begin, so I may ask you all for advice or tips if needed.
