Artstyle you commissioned or want to commission

What are the peeps of SH looking for in art?
What is your standard? What would you say is the level of art you'd want for your cover.

Share your artists?

I would say something at least as good as this. This anime style art was done by Miftasee on Vgen.

I had mine done by ChickenDrawsDogs and @Hans.Trondheim

I like the older anime style vibes and colored Noir comic style vibes.

If I am making an art, I make it symbolic and deep, cause why add an art with no real meaning? You could also add a scene from the story, but that is up to you: if it is unimportant, then no. If so, then yes.

Here is something I had made:

Just curious about what art people like.

Many say they like anime art, but there are many styles of anime y'know. Especially the coloring.

Hmm.

The irony is that the distinct "Japanimation" art style made popular in anime began as an attempt to copy the style of Walt Disney Studios (because Occidental eyes seemed ridiculously large to most Japanese artists, the characters they drew exaggerated that trait, becoming one of the core elements of the anime/manga style).
If I could afford to comission art... I'd look for stuff with a style that fit the story, regardless of what was "popular" at the time, and I prefer to see either art that fits a story, OR art by the author, even if it doesn't quite fit.

True, the author often captures the essence of the story the most

My taste is eclectic at best, but whatever.
