What are your favorite instances of hyperstylized things? Human bodies, vehicles, enviornment, things that are based on reality but taken to a stylistic extreme...

Hyperstylization
i liked the scrawny old character designs of Jhonen Vasques before he went mad R.I.P, you beautiful goth lesbian, I could've saved you
Da fuq you talkin bout?
i miss him bro
I think it hit me why I dislike certain artstyles so much, they don't feel like they're stylizing or drawing from observation of life at all, they seem like they exclusively draw from other artstyles which draw from other artstyles which draw from other artstyles
i call these incestuous artstyles and yes they suck
now don't get me wrong learning from other cartoonists is a great thing, but you need to have variety and also study from other sources including reality
if you only study the style or small handful of styles you want to mimic, you end up with... well... let's just say 'when ya style develops'
Pretty much this. If you're trying to mimic a style, it's not enough to copy it. You need to study the inspirations that led to that style, otherwise you miss the finer details and microdecisions made with it.
It’s a combination of people being told they need their work to look like other stuff being made in the moment, and the fact that a lot of people working in animation don’t really look at art outside of their little incestuous circle. Looking at all art is always a good thing. That’s how you develop your own taste and taste combined with practice becomes style.
>and the fact that a lot of people working in animation don’t really look at art outside of their little incestuous circle
i'll say this and i'll keep saying this and i won't stop saying this but i think one of the many issues with the current industry, and perhaps the most depressing one, is that the people working in it are non artists pretending to be artists
Anything drawn by Sam Keith.
His style is neat.

this cartoon has a more stylised version of jessica rabbit
Great character designs and character artstyle
Reading the title I fully expected some pissy little badly doodled "# PUNCH YOUR LOCAL SHITLORD" activism nonsense I'm glad it's actually quality stuff thanks anon
my pleasure, its way back from 2003 i think so there wasnt even that much of a public for that kind of dull shit yet
Back when this was made, punching Nazis meant punching ACTUAL Nazis. Antifa and academia hadn't made it socially acceptable to hit people who didn't agree with you yet.
Why isn’t there a pulpy ww2 era adventure cartoon like this. It seems like it’d be a no brainer hit.
There was a lot of puply WW2 era Nazi X American soldier romantic novels and smut
It seems somehow, despite most of America's nazi panic being around the era of WW2 (Well, up until like 2014 that is...) that era also created the most passionate kinda stuff because taboos are exciting
Now... Well, I don't need to explain to you why that's no longer the case...
if you look at historic documents and the media created at the time everything to do with hitler, nazism and ww2 was actually not at all as unmentionable or hyper sensitive of a topic while it was happening or even right after it all ended, as it became some years later... it's a weird situation, it's like the whole thing was done and dusted like any other war, and then suddenly people woke up one day like fricking pic rel and went "OH FRICK WE DIDN'T MAKE NEARLY AS BIG OF A FUSS ABOUT THIS AS WE SHOULD'VE"
Oh, this is where that big tiddie blonde lady came from. Neat.
I like My Inputwo.
The style looks interesting.
I know this is supposed to be an overstylized thread, but I am still SICK of nonsensically oversized warhammers.
Could be worse.
Who is that? For a sec I thought it was Jayce from League of Legends/Arcane.
I was originally going to post him, but I decided to go with another image of a woman. I just looked up something like "fantasy woman with giant hammer", and found this on a wallpaper website. No idea what her name is, if she even has one.
i love the hammer design even if the way she's wielding it is moronic
but man that character design is atrocious, the sudden hot pink and what looks like a modern pair of shorts and adidas tracksuit top with a top heavy fur and metal shawl
frick
awful
I thought that was Starlight from The Boys.
Jessica Rabbit isn't even the most stylized girl of Richard Williams.
?t=32
>Isn't even the most stylized
I don't think you know what stylized means, "more stylized" does not just mean a tighter waist
Jessica Rabbit is just dollar store Red Hot Riding Hood. In fact she is older than Richard William himself.
>work on Rugrats
>gets sick of animating short, stubby characters
>decides to make something with the lankiest characters ever to prove that he can do it.
What show is this?
Aeon Flux
It really does sometimes
Thanks.
It's called Aeon Flux.
reminds me of egon schiele
anyone knows where can i watch it in good quality?
wco dot tv
thank you anon
didnt they start hiding some stuff behind premium accounts?
the fricking audacity of a pirating website to charge money for pirated media
Everyone says this show is an animation flex but I think it looks like shit
I get it may be TECHNICALLY impressive, but who cares if thay doesnt translate to spmething impressive to watch?
i haven't watched that show but i really agree with what you say because i know so many cartoons that this applies to
it's skilled animation, yes, but it serves no purpose
the newer episodes of spongebob come to mind
By “it looks like shit” do you mean
>I don’t think the animation is good.
or
>I don’t like the subject matter.
Anything directly from or inspired by the wave of modern “Designy” cartoons of the 1950s. I will never get sick of it.

I like when a show has hyperstylized muscles.
Looks goofy to me. Reminds me too much of Baki.
this is pornography you got from /trash/.
It's not porn. For one, there's no penis. For two, there's no nipples.
well it might not have nipples or a dick but a bunch of hyper muscle loving homosexuals were beating their meat to it on the other board, so idfk what to tell you anon.
One thing I hate about r34 of these characters or fan art in general is that they take the exaggerated proportions and take them to a ridiculous degree.
I am not sure if this is because of a lack of talent, or if more people than I realize are into a soft from of inflation.
I think there are only a handful of pieces of fan art of Jessica that actually look good, and even then most of them still have overblown proportions.
i don't think your pic rel is a good example of hyperstylization
I understand. Barely anything good these days.
i think another equally-eugh route is just "draw 'em as cartoon heads stuck to hyper-realistic bodies"
i have learned to accept that cartoon porn fans are just built differently.
You may have better luck commisioning Hollie's porn to a japanese artist
I don't care much for most cape comic art, but I LOVE Humberto ramo's art.
A lot of people seem to hate it for the proportions, I love how animated it feels. Not just that it's visually cartoony, but the wonky sizes of limbs feels like it's capturing squash and stretch principles in static images.
I see that with Bill Sienkiewicz. I feel like anyone that likes his art are people who like comics as an artistic medium, while those that don’t just see comic art as a thing that gets in the way of the story and want it to be as generic as possible.
Aren't isn't supposed to get in the way of the story, it IS the story. You should be able to tell what's going on in a comic without reading any of the text, which is just there to enhance it. If an artist can accomplish that while also being expiramental and unorthodox, like Steranko or Garcia-Lopez for example, so much the better. Most artists can't or won't. Sienkiewicz is mostly fine with legibility compared to modern manga-inspired comics, but compared to his contemporaries he's awful at it, and regardless the big problem with his art is that it's just ugly. League of difference between being artsy and hyper-stylized and just making your characters gross to look at. Barry Windsor-Smith does artsy stuff correctly.
*art isn't
I disagree. Art doesn’t necessarily have to be easily read. In most cases, it should, but in The New Mutants with Sienkiewicz, the story is meant to be trippy and cerebral. Claremont approached Sienkiewicz for the Demon Bear arc because he knew the trippy stuff he was doing towards the end of Moon Knight was what he needed. Is the story as immediately legible as other comics at the time? No. But The art is more memorable than pretty much any other book that came out at the time. Sam Keith would later state that Sienkiewicz on New Mutants blew the door open on what was possible in comic art, which is a good thing. I just couldn’t imagine Legion or the Demon Bear with more standard art without the story being less memorable as a result.
Omniverse
I like Jim Woodring's surrealistic settings. They're beautiful but at the same time the stuff of nightmares.
Very cool
