Hey there!

Many of you probably just saw that Sailor Moon drawing that just came along. If you have not, please go look at it. You'll see it's close, but not quite the style of the show. Especially in shading.

I had a thought for a followup that would be fun, but I'm curious. For these drawings and even loop animations that are based on these older properties that have specific streamlined styles. Do you prefer the style match the show or source material, and the simple shading that comes with them? Or do you prefer I go hard as fuck on everything and put a lot of effort into shading and lighting and drawing in my style? Matching styles would be an easier way to pump fun art out that isn't the big projects or the requests, so you'd get more art. It would just be tailored to that source material. I prefer things look like the source material, and do the easier shading because I want my Sailor Moon to look like Sailor Moon and my Gunsmith Cats to look like Gunsmith Cats, but I want to know. lol

I'm working on that Hourglass expansion of Atom Eve and I'm thinking of matching the styles to test this. Just want to start being efficient and stop taking hours on drawings if nobody cares. lolol

Anyway let me know if you are about that sort of thing.

I don’t care 🎶 I love it 👍

Icarus con Queso

I don't particularly have a preference, but it seems like you think it will be fun and productive and personally good to do it in the source style. So I voted for that. Happy artist, better art. Regardless of style

SINISTAR

you're the artist, do what works for you

Tail-Blazer

I am the artist, but people are paying to be here so they get a little say-so.

DeVaughn Forbes

As an artist myself, I believe you should thrive, but I know you seek structure as well- Thus try and put focus, while putting your own spin on it.

Tail-Blazer

I was hoping my bias would shine through. <3

Meh

It's a nice idea, but I'm good either way. Maybe a fun quirk for a piece every now and then?

nutjob

I think its whatever you find more enjoyable at the time. If it gives you a way to change things up and get more enjoyment out of it then I'm happy either way

Grant Stoye

look, your art is killer either way, I'm just happy you're providing good stuff

S H

Personally any design is great I love your artwork for what it is!!

TheGriff

honestly im fine either way but if you *know* (or at least confident enough that) you can either match or emulate it then i say you should shoot for that

Miniman_Adam

What is this, no option for "in YOUR style?" 😅😁 Honestly though, as impressive as it is to see how close you got with the Sailor Moon piece, I'm on here because I came to see Tail Blazer art. If you want to experiment with other art styles or try to get as close to source as possible I'm all for it! As long as it's what you want to do when exploring your art. you're the reason I'm here, bud 😁

Tail-Blazer

I do what I want for stuff that's for me, so that IS my expression. But these smaller things that are more for others, wanted input on. (The second option is my style btw.)

Tail-Blazer

I agree. It's just an easy way to follow another idea.

HowlingHollows

Just love your art, lewd and not, and happy to see more of it!

Story Master

Really, it only makes sense to do your style for your stuff. If anything if you try to do it in the simpler shading and stuff it would feel like watching the show with boobs and ass in the best way. I for one think if you can get close to Atom Eve in the Show with an hourglass expansion…that would be amazing. Plus you could get to other stuff we’re waiting for and keep your stuff all the more special. It would be three birds with one stone.

Ramen Sage

Honestly I think your art style gives it a nice spin! While seeing it in it's own art style would be nice, I really love your art. I think it provides a good challenge of transforming one art style into another😊

Llamall

I kinda just love seeing what you'll draw next. Seeing your spin on things feels refreshing and fun. I think that I'm here to witness you as an artist and I'm just excited to be along for the ride!

Tail-Blazer

Congratulations, Llamall. You've made my week. Thank you kindly.

tonymuyo

Looooove your art style, but I'm happy to see how you experiment! I'm going to vote "I don't care", but I do care! Rather I would vote for "whatever feels right for you!"

Snapxynith

This is true. Style allows you to move the focus on a statement but what you're saying is why I'm here. Tail-blazer's view and thoughts on the world, especially what you enjoy bringing to pieces. So changing the lens on the camera will definitely change the image but you'll always point it at things with which we can engage. So please explore the style space as long as you don't exhaust yourself walking too far to an enchanting horizon.

Robin 't Jong

Feel like you should stick to whatever style suits you in the moment. I mean you're clearly an artist so if anyone knows what works best for a specific project, it's you. You have yet to disappoint me, I love what you're putting out. Currently check-in daily cause the idea that BB3 could drop any day makes me feel like 6y/o me days before his birthday 🤩

Tail-Blazer

Hey I appreciate every last one of y'all, reading these replies. Imma BBQ for y'all.

Balina

I feel like both have their strengths, but really if you're telling us that doing something more like the original style is *easier* on you it seems like an upside with no downsides.

Charlotte

Do as you like! If your like is being told what to do then I'm telling you number three and there will be no back sass!
