Nothing wrong with generic anime art! Mine's still generic af!

I started drawing seriously since 2007. But the earliest drawing I have is from 2009:
My FiNe TastEs and influence back then include CLAMP and pokemon

This one is for my reboot that is yet to be released. I finished it just 2 weeks ago.
12 years have passed and I've had a lot of influences that I can't really list what they are anymore.

Depends on what your art is for. The problem with generic anime art for me boils down to a lack of recognisable identity. My art didn't look like my own. Generic anime art styles might be fine if your audience and themes match that. Mine don't. I don't want my art to look like it could just be somebody else's.

Doesn't mean generic anime artists are terrible. Just means that they're limiting themselves to a set of tropes and aren't exploring as many options as they could be.

This is really encouraging, though a lot of you started out way beyond me artistically. I really hope I made as much progress as some of you.

Im super grateful for the guidance I started getting after my first story never made it. I still have a Looooong way to go but I feel like I'm getting a better grasp of where I do well and where Im still struggling.

It's crazy how much you've improved. Even though the starting style was already beautiful, now it's gorgeous. And I love your comic so much.
