when people say they are inspired by ruan jia are they being ironic or...?

What’s wrong with him? I think he’s a top lad when it comes to rendering. Lately, the poses and overall design is very generic in his works.

I'm unironically inspired by him since he is proof you don't need to be that good to make it.

What's not that good about him?
Like, I have trouble seeing the distinction between his work and people that /ic/ gush over endlessly like Craig Mullins.

i don't really get the thing he does with colourful hair and face, but he paints very beautifully, personally i think he should go weirder and become like the 'realistic' shirow

His paintings look like they've been deep fried.
There's no way he doesn't put in the weird fucking sharpen filter artifacts on purpose.
Just look at her crotch, looks like she's pissing herself and its leaking out the sides, i guess that's the reason for the facial expression and pose.

>be a god at rendering
>destroy your image with yellow phlem

What is he honestly thinking.

They're probably serious. Most people on IC are low(er) skill beginners. One thing a lot of beginners latch onto is technical ability. It's an easily recognizable thing you can look at and want to emulate with a fairly clear path on how to attain it. Wanting to have better ideas or concepts for example is more nebulous and can't as easily be explained.

So beginners obsess over technique /skill level and gravitate to skilled artists, being inspired by their high level of ability. When a lot artists start to attain their own level of skill you develop other interests like the ideas behind the images or whatever. Just my opinion but you see a lot of anons trying to prove they know more about something or trying to find technical deficiencies how the work is drawn or painted rather than commenting on the ideas the image or coming up with a better concept for the costume, lighting, composition background, etc.

way to out yourself as being completely new. Ruanjia has always been known for rendering the shit out of his paintings for weeks or months at a time. Only relatively recently did he start uploading more of the demos he's doing for his students, which tend to be done in under 2 hours.
