Really nice @Marc Aspinall . Do you ever have art directors ask you to make your work look less stylized? It's a conundrum I find myself in allot which frustrates the hell out of me! Your work is so brilliant!
@Scotty Reifsnyder Wow, I've only ever had one client ask me to revert back to a style I'd moved away from, but not be less 'stylized' give me an example of when you've had it, sounds a little backward, seeing as it's your 'style' they are hiring.
@Marc Aspinall it's only happened a few times but it kind of insulting. Last time they asked me to make my characters less "flat". I was like I think you hired the wrong person. Your characters are so well stylized. I hope clients never get you away from it! Keep up the brilliant work!
@Scotty Reifsnyder Wow, that totally sucks; especially for you as your work is SO stylized; it would seem dumb to ask for anything else from you. But I know how it feels, and yes, it's insulting. So far it's been good, and the more I seem to experiment the more work I seem to be getting - touch wood..
