Anime Drawing Types

How do you like your anime drawn?

I like the girls and guys to be close to reality in body types, i hate the huge shoulders they guve guys or the huge boobs...no way you can fight like a ninja with boobs like that HA HA

Also I like the hair to not be so weird....like dragonball hair with all the spikes when they go supersaiyan

Also their face, i like their eyes to have lots of shine to them, not plain like Naruto eyes, I hate Hinatas eyes, how boring!

Also a weird thing ive noticed...almost all anime girls have bangs...whats up with that, not many characters are bareforeheaded...

Haha, I agree. A lot of anime girls have bangs, but hey I guess it's classic or something. I draaw girls with bangs X_X and ponytails. It's the easiest type oh hair to draw for beginner artists and plus I think its a decent hair style. It's very hard for me to give girls with hair all across her forehead...it never loks right for some reason.

My favorite styles are:
I guess I'd have to list them by the illustrators and character designers.

Takehito Harada
Yoshiyuki Sadamoto

That pretty much says it all, since they have almost trademark like uniqueness to their art style.

I like the semi realistic figures myself (though sometimes the super skinny type like in Scryed are awesome. Mmmm Straight Cougar). I REFUSE to watch anime where the women have breasts that are larger than like D cups. Its just so revolting. I also can't stand the anime where the women seem to have springs in their breasts that cause them to bounce all over. Those kinda things just generally ruin an anime for me so I can't ever take it seriously.

they are right, sometimes boobs that bounce that much make you dizzy, its like staring at a lava lamp for too long, heres a reality check guys, they dont bounce that way naturally even if they are fake, that'd hurt like hell!

I like Ken Akamatsu's style of drawing.
Love Hina and Mahou Sensei Negima are really nice and funny stuff.

GTO drawing style, slightly realistic with really wacked out expressions ie. onizuka when angry, suprised etc.

I've been drawing and reading heaps of manga for the past couple of years, and i took a liking to Mizuki Kawashitas drawing style for Ichigo 100%. I especially like how he draws their eyes, it makes the chicks look really cute! KAWAI!!!
But with my drawing style, kinda mix it up with Ken Akamatsus' style and Mizuki Kawashits' style to make an ultra wicked picture. Although my most recent full page picture took me a whole 15 hours to draw O_o

I should really start to socialize again.

I have no idea who's manga drawing style is what... i like to watch anime and copy from them... pulling bits from every anime and creating my own style, i love the graphics from hikaru no go and the tsukasa from .hack//sign (though i thought that the show sucked, the main character's character and drawings were one of the best)... well and all of those hot big boob chicks are stereotypically anime, it's nice to break away from that but it's also nice to watch big boobs bounce... Smile

I don't like the characters when they're super elongated like in Card Captor Sakura. It bothers me how long they are. It doesn't seem natural. I prefer "normal" proportions or slight longer... But too long is weird. And the super cutesy look doesn't suit me. Them big anime eyes are scary... *nod nod*

I like big, colourful eyes, especially on girls. For that matter, I like there to be alot of color, unless, of course, the mood of the story calls for a darker tone and colour set.

I also like there to be some sense of proportion (other than their eyes, of course. I already said I like big eyes). I dont like girls to have massive breasts. Normal sized for me, thank you. The same goes for "other" portions of the female anatomy.

If you want a summary of what kind of style I like best, really, the best example is Fullmetal Alchemist. If you've seen that artstyle, specifically the artstyle that Hiromu Arakawa uses in the actual manga, then you know what kind of style I like.

it all looks the same to me.. i liked things like samurai 7 over the art in.. hmm.. well just about anyother anime i guess.. everything just looks generally the same no matter how i look at it.. the only real differences are in faces.

Alot of faces might end up looking like americans/europeans when they're supposed to be japanese.. I like the ones where the faces look like american/europeans over japanese. Not for any particular reason i just tend to enjoy it more i guess.

eyes and bodies i don't really care. oh and for the big boobs and shoulders thing im completely for it.

i think basically any type is fine as long as it's not over-exaggerated.... ie:shinshidoumei cross.. the eyes are like more than half the size of the face of most characters -.-"... Mizuki Kawashita's style of drawing is really good tho =P

I loved the facial animation of Fuu in Samurai Champloo. She looked cute in every scene. In overall body's i would choose the hot blonde that works in computers in GoldenBoy.
