What has been inspiring your stories lately?

While I was working on the latest chapter of my comic I started to read the manga Baki. I started to notice I was adding visual effects and other art techniques in the Baki style.

Feel free to show off your work and show off how it's growing! Also check out my latest chapter!

Interestingly, My comic was surely inspired not only by medieval fantasy but also by histories and real-life event from the bronze age all the way to the Napoleonic age but the scene was inspired by a manga called Kingdom by Yasuhisa Hara:

And you can see some of my panels are inspired by it but colored:

However, I am planning a second comic based on sci-fi. It is inspired by some science fiction such as WH40K, DUNE, Star wars, etc but I want to take it through a different route. You can see some of them on Mukhtar as extras and Info about it. I am planning on publishing by the end of next year or the year after that so 2023/2024. It's called Abbasia for now.

Each time I need to muster more hatred for corrupt authority figures, scheming politician and general crappiness in the human soul. I see the news about my country and that keeps the furnace burning.

I'm mostly still riding the wave of inspiration that came from my rewatch of Re:Creators earlier this year.

That said, the sequel I'm working on is an adaptation of Homer's Odyssey, with each of Odysseus' stops on his journey mapped onto a story genre that my characters go and visit. So, I've been having fun drawing and playing with elements from things like:

• Japanese high school harem comedies
• The Martian
• Battle Royale stories
• Minecraft (in this case, less blocky)
• Inception
• Quiet life slice of life stories
• Rising of the Shield Hero

Let's just say that I'm having fun. It's a pity nobody's going to get to read this stuff until it goes live at the end of November/beginning of December...

Most recently, I think The Talos Principle has inspired some aspects of my one-shot, God's World. In particular:

• the part where the god character speaks in subtitles
• the part where you climb up something really tall

I also totally imagine the Creator with El0HIM's voice XD

I'm not sure I'd call it inspiration since I associate that word with being influenced, but recently I discovered Sleeping at Last's Atlas: Enneagram album, and it is the most perfect music for my comic so far. I've learned I pretty much like all their music, but this is the type of sound and lyrics I've been looking for. (Nine especially is -chef's kiss-)

Not so much inspiration as it is desperation, lol.

I am having shoulder surgery within the next two weeks, and I want to get as much down as possible before I will be held up for the next two months. I also have my semester starting for college in late august amongst work study and tennis (I'll be temp manager till my shoulder is healed). So will those things on top, I am trying to write as much as I can while I can still write. I've gotten a lot done within the last two weeks, probably around 20k words. Even if I don't feel like writing and am just like "ughhhh do I have to?" I still manage to write because I know that it will be a very heavy task if I don't. I rather get the ugliest writing ever done than none at all.

As I say, it can be 500 words and I'd still be happy. For reference that is maybe a fifth of a chapter of what I am averaging. But, yeah. That's my inspiration for right now.

The music of Valensia (90's Dutch artist). Was brought to my attention by a recent Apple mobile game Air Twister. I started looking for his songs (I don't usually search for musician i don't know-- I'm not adventurous music-wise.)

As someone who likes 80s & 90s music it's a great discovery. Valensia has very creative and upbeating music. His vocal has a very Queen, Kate Bush quality.

Here's some of his songs

I've been playing Multiversus and now I really really wanna learn how to draw Bugs Bunny

[powerplantanimations]

@TroyVSTheWorld Also I REALLY want that to be on Switch. Hopefully when it does, Daffy will be there waiting for me. He's ma' favorite :v

[AmazementComics]

Yo! Got another Multiversus gamer on here! That’s what’s up!

[AmazementComics]

For me, been watching the X-Men movies. Which is actually important as my stories actually deal with people who are different being feared and hated by society. Only difference is, people’s mutations often happen accidentally rather than being born with said mutation.

[Bearkorps]

Underrated gem imo. Great OST too, forbidden tower and false god are bangers in their own right

[TheLemmaLlama]

Oh absolutely, I love that game (and OST, and DLC) so much :'D I do hear it getting talked about decently often, but the fandom is tragically inactive (probably because robots are hard to draw XD)
