I personally do not trust anyone who favors the Don Bluth chicken. It looks so insincere.

I completely agree!

Man, imagine being furious about working on that show!

I looked at this guy's feed, and he's not a bad artist really. I think if anything he got to the point in his education where he learned to follow the rules, but not far enough that he learned to break them.

Some twist the chicken's head to make it more dynamic, while others, well, they have goals less kind.

I think they were going for something line-tool Toon Boom rigged looking on the left but because they're an illustrator and do lovely flowing pencil lines the simplicity looks very deliberate 'n' good

And I don't mean this as an insult to Don Bluth. Both styles are valid.

right? if you take Don Bluth and subtract all the stylistic quirks that make his character designs fun, you get....whatever this guy thinks he's doing

Reminds me of people in animation class who believed that Ghibli characters hair and clothing reacting in ways that reflected emotion rather than physics was an animation error.

Oh! And just saw the signature. Yep, same guy.

Everything is made better with organic derp. I'll take the goofy looking sketch over these "cleaner" versions.

He's making how to draw books and that's his whole portfolio somehow? Artist like that irritate me for some reason? He clearly worked for some other projects, there is finished stuff but he doesn't show it. It's just seeing books all the way down.

I bet they were wrong, though

they both... serve different purposes well. an artist should understand that shouldnt they?

Alex Hirsch vs Don Bluth

Give #2 a lute and some swagger and he's 30% of the way to being the rooster from Robin Hood ❤️

I love them

The ❌ is basically my exactly art style! 😂

I totally agree. That’s why the big red X over the left one rankled me. No matter what the ‘lesson’ they’re trying to teach, the binary GOOD/BAD classification is so weird.
