we've had this thread before, but I'm in a drool-over-art mood so we can have it again
the thread title is pretty self-explanatory. I tagged this under comics, but really, you can post about artists working in fiction in general.
Let's kick this off with some Kentaro Miura. The man is, simply put, one of the best fantasy artists to have ever come out of Japan in the last few decades, if not one of the best in general. His command over proportions, shading, hatching, linework, blacks, are all impeccable, and his vivid imagination to create such brutal, visceral, and profoundly unsettling scenes has been one of my biggest inspirations in my own art.
An artist who I found very recently whose art almost literally took my breath away is Tsutomu Nihei. I read that he used to be an architecture student, and it shows, because his BG's are amazing. But he also has an incredible design sense. His work in Abara was nothing short of phenomenal. The gauna have some seriously wicked designs.
will post more as the thread goes on
go go go go
