wrong influence?!

Posted by mahogare - February 28th, 2024


i'm afraid that influence from a lolicon artist that i eagerly followed when i was too young to know the meaning of such things(7-9years old) might surface on my art/ character design.

that was two most active year on developing my taste for art and building my first imaginary oc adventure so even though i want to post my old art i can't.

i wanted to make a shrine/family tree of inspirations or ocs but i couldn't because their influence was so huge the whole story wouldn't be possible if i just hid 'some elements'

sometimes i even see some similarities on my art and theirs and it's not the greatest experience.

That's quite the pickle. For what it's worth, I don't think there's any danger of it surfacing in your art / character design. They always struck me as... wholesome, I guess (for lack of a better word). Cute witch is just a cute witch.

I don't think you gotta worry about it influencing your art, when you take inspiration from someone you usually take what you like and leave the rest behind, so if there's plenty of negative stuff you don't like about that person I don't think any of it will stick with you.
