I think it is amazing how we all have our own distinct styles! I love seeing how others do their own thing. Hopefully it is also fun for you guys to see our styling process. I know my art has significantly improved from day 1 until now 😊

Omg! 😍

Em, if you could just swap I Know’s headshot with this one that would be great. I feel it’s much more appropriate lol

To Julie...I grew up on Norman Thelwell books and your animation reminds me of his. Was he an inspiration to you? Very nicely done.

To Nena...you know I’m a fan and I don’t see that changing any time soon!

To both...well done ladies! Many thanks to both for bringing our game to life!

Since I was a child I was inspired by a Swedish artist, who was inspired by Thellwell, so I guess I am 3rd generation inspired? If that makes sense LOL ^^
I didn't know about Thellwell until maybe 6 years ago ^^
But now I know about Thellwell and admire his work very much :)

I'm glad to meet at least some of the artists! Thanks for introducing yourselves! Question: how do you decide which type (frontal, profile, etc) to use in each shot?
I've also noticed that the shots have gotten more refined(?) over the years. I guess this reflects new skills and/or software. Either way, I love the ones you've done for me!
