  He's definitely one of the greats. His style is very unique yet you can see every inspiration he draws. His use of dream-like imagery in fantasy art is astounding. Funny you mention Kim jung gi too cus he is my favorite artist of all time. Lol

  Amano is amazing, one of the greatest Japanese influences over Westeners. Another great guy is Akihiko Yoshida, a brilliant artist and art director of the gorgeous magnum opus Final Fantasy XII

  I love Amano's work! It was so nice to hear you talk about him. Have you ever checked out Ayami Kojima's art? She was the concept artist/illustrator for the Castlevania games.

  Would like to see this kind of video for Yoji Shinkawa. Another artist that I equally admire and look up to as much as Yoshitaka Amano. And I think I've heard somewhere that Amano was on of the primary influences for Shinkawa, which I kinda see.

  Ya, I picked the same thing out of the Claire Wendling interview. It's a very good quote. Trying to develop a single, all-encompassing style to define one's self is unrealistic. People are multi-faceted complexes of passions and contradictions. It's easier to develop a style knowing you don't have to give up on a component that isn't cohesive to the whole - knowing you can apply that component to a different style as you see fit. And also, drawing in multiple styles makes it easier to improve as an artist. You become aware of why you are doing something because you have a personal framework to contrast it to.

  Yep, first saw this guy's art in the Final Fantasy 6 rulebooks. His art is very free and loose and very Japanese.

  Drawing on paper is one thing putting it in a film is just insane, this is the style that I look up to the most but my drawing is more a Kim Jung Gi&apos;s.

  Great, Rich. Amano is for sure my spiritual animal, for years i always wanted to make something lookin for what he did but there&apos;s so many clones and spiritual sucessors of him online that i dont really know if i can add something at the point that i feel confortable on doing it, maybe in the future.
