What do you think about artificial imperfection as an attempt to give more soul to digital art?

that sure is a lot of words for a sentence that basically mean nothing
Xavier Baker
Original for comparison
Nicholas Butler
uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ian Martin
So it's slightly darkened? I don't get it, what's the point?
Parker Moore
There's a little bit of grain. I get what he's going at, but this example isn't really enough to make me care that much.
Luke Stewart
As in trying to recreate the animation cell feel.
Ayden Rodriguez
It's literally the same but darker
Ryan Sanchez
truly a lost artform
Justin Brown
pure digital feels too sterile in my opinion
Anthony Jackson
The fetishization of a cel-based photography process is the sure sign of a half-wit that knows next to nothing about anime production.
Kevin Lee
it has to be subtle or then you have shit like this
Nicholas Lopez
Those look the same but I get where you're getting at. A better example would be how Toei has been post-processing their anime recently. They warm up colors, sketchy lines and give everything a sligth blur.
Honestlty, I like it a lot.
Christopher Richardson
for fuck's sake get off your high horse already. Of course there are clear industry advantages to digital, nobody is denying that.
I'm just bemoaning the (economically irrelevant) price that had to be paid.
Gavin Walker
Definitely.
Simpleton.
Adam Gomez
The attempt in the OP failed but it's probably possible since I am viewing these images digitally.
Maybe having the initial drawing and painting be done with a bunch of different texture brushes with a restricted colour palette might, while not truly emulating the cel look, give digital anime some 'soul'.
Jackson Sanders
ohhhh, lookie here lads, we got ourselves an expert!
please enlighten us rabble away from our ignorance.
Christopher Thompson
I'm just noting, as a general trend I've witnessed, that those that fetishize cels tend to be largely ignorant of anime production, many to the extent that they don't even know what cels are or how they were actually used.
Nolan Bennett
I like it because it looks more appealing to me, eat shit user
Lincoln Phillips
Are you retarded? the top one was literaly drawn digitaly. You are dismantling your argument yourself.
It's entirely a matter of intent and style not of medium.
Grayson Hall
are there any good examples of it. it usually stands out like a sore thumb no matter what they do.
Isaiah Johnson
>top
Better drawing, better shading
>bottom
Better colours
Anthony Mitchell
>the top one was literaly drawn digitaly
I believe that is the point
Jacob Brown
>Better colours
Elaborate.
Christian Wilson
It's subtle in comparison to Tiger Mask W, but Star Twinkle Precure did it as well since the show was gunning for an 80's aesthetic. I miss it, it would've fit well with the painterly aesthetic of this year's Precure.
Jose Bell
>better shading
lol no
its literally tri color shading vs quad color shading.
Austin Hall
This example i fully agree
Otherwise it's just trying to put a shitty filter on something that was shit to begin with
Daniel Brooks
I'm not saying you can't like it. Just don't be an idiot and educate yourself on anime production processes.
Carson Powell
Pre-processed version for a comparison to confirm that the lines were most certainly filtered.
Jackson James
If you've been paying attention, various series have been using lineart filters for almost half a decade now. It's just more common recently (and that's a great thing).
Julian Richardson
and the bottom is traditional? I figured super would be all digital.
