I am trying so hard to learn how to recreate junji ito's style, and I literally think that the line work is so detailed that my poor little crippled wrists are not up to the task
But! I think I have figured out a way to work around that using pre-made cross-hatching brushes in clip studio! Which means hopefully I can focus on getting down the major shapes of his illustrations, and then i can learn how to fill in the ludicrous amount of tiny tiny little lines digitally!
and THEN I am going to draw characters from the video game Don't Starve Together in that style! And vice versa. I would love to draw a cute little chibi of Tomie 😈☠🙀
Time to crack into the file entitled "scary boi jail" that I keep on both my phone and my computer, so I can trace a bunch of panels from Uzumaki.
Happy Twisted Flesh Tuesday, everyone!!
#original#junji ito#dst#tomie junji ito#Don't Starve#Don't Starve Together#my end goal is to better develop my stylization and horror skills overall and the best way#to learn is to just draw literally whatever makes me happy#can't believe it's Saturday and it's already Twisted Flesh Tuesday#both styles make heavy use of crosshatching and spirals. I think I can do something with that#oh my poor little wrists#I would never care so much about cross-hatching usually but it really does seem to make his work way more upsetting?#and that is the skill set we are here to build after all. I really like horror art. and it's important to my graphic novel#I think maybe the combination of hyper realistic meticulously shaded details with increasingly distorted and unnatural anatomy#maybe the reason his stuff makes my fucking skin crawl. more testing is needed. this basically happens every time I engage with his work#we'll see how far this particular wave of hyperfocus gets me#all I want is to be a master of Horror and also to draw the scariest version of Maxwell from don't starve that anyone's ever drawn#is that so much to ask?#scary boi jail is where all the scary art references I find live. it is 90% junji ito#in case it wasn't clear the twisted flesh is not my own admittedly janky joints it is a hallmark of this horror style i want to emulate#if I can recreate a style then I can incorporate the parts I like best into my own style.
