This is a truly gifted artist. He captured so many beautiful moments and places, here. And with such simple but graceful linework, too. Incredible work, all around.

the linework before color has rly different vibes

Currently rendering the hare in the suit and I just colored his shirt red as a base to see the linework better I am fucking foaming in the mouth

Like I'm dead serious. it has been standard practice since its inception to draw over rough linework and even parts of reference material if need be. none of this is copying.

Things to work on include: Shading Linework Proportions

Here you are lovelies~! The final version~! :3 (Linework & a couple stills linked in replies) Sorry it’s smaller than the lineart/black&white version. Had to cause of twit upload limitations on the file size. Some Sheithy sexiness for the soul~ #nsfw #sexgif #sheith #verynsfw

Gosho-sensei's Frieren is so cool! The linework and that composed face are perfect "

I absolutely adore his linework this is some really good stuff! Reminds me somewhat of the artstyle of those one-panel cartoons, not to say that his style doesnt have its own uniqueness to it though

That's fair, I love seeing the works of true masters that can create such powerful emotion with only linework.

Soul Being Drawn From the Body — Elegant Tragic Ukiyo-e Ghost Print Horror Create a masterpiece-level, ultra-detailed illustration of the provided character undergoing a supernatural moment where their soul is being drawn out of their body by an ancient curse. The scene should feel terrifying, tragic, elegant, and emotionally overwhelming, but not graphic or physically violent. Use the provided character reference as the absolute visual identity source. Preserve the character’s recognizable face, hairstyle, hair color, eye color, body type, outfit design language, silhouette, attitude, and overall personality. Do not redesign the character into someone else. The character is fighting back with everything they have, but it is clear they are losing. Their body is tense and strained, one foot braced against the ground, shoulders twisted, hands reaching toward the glowing soul threads as if trying to hold themselves together. Their expression should show sorrow, fear, fury, and desperate resistance — proud, heartbroken, and refusing to surrender even as the curse overpowers them. Instead of physical harm, show the soul as a pale, luminous, spectral version of the character slowly separating from their chest and rising upward. The spirit form remains connected to the body by delicate glowing threads, flowing ghostly ribbons, mist-like strands, and fading soul particles. The separation should feel like identity, memory, power, and life force being pulled away by fate. No blood. No gore. No wound. No torn flesh. No physical injury. The horror should come entirely from the supernatural soul separation, the character’s emotional resistance, the ghostly atmosphere, and the tragic inevitability of the moment. Surround the character with pale spirits, yokai mist, flowing spectral ribbons, cursed wind, floating paper talismans, mournful ghost-fire, and haunting faces barely visible in the smoke. The spirits should not attack the body directly; instead, they guide, pull, or summon the soul through elegant ribbons of supernatural energy. Render the final image in Ukiyo-e Ghost Print Style: Japanese woodblock horror, aged paper texture, flat layered ink shapes, organic brush linework, weathered print grain, subtle ink bleed, haunting negative space, pale spirits, flowing robes, stylized smoke, wave-like ghost energy, ornamental storm clouds, and old Japanese folklore atmosphere. Push the image toward elegant tragedy rather than brute horror. The movement should feel graceful and sorrowful, like a funeral dance. Robes, hair, smoke, soul threads, and spirit ribbons should flow in long sweeping arcs. The soul should look delicate, luminous, and heartbreaking rather than monstrous. Use a restrained ghost-print palette: indigo, bone white, ashen gray, muted teal, storm blue, faded gold, ink black, desaturated violet, and subtle pale cyan. Let the soul glow softly against the darker ink-heavy scene. Add pale moonlight, lightning flickers, ghost-fire glow, drifting faded blossoms, and a quiet sense of inevitability. The composition should be full-body or three-quarter view. The physical character should remain grounded but weakening, while the spectral soul rises upward in a strong visual arc. The pose must clearly show desperate resistance, supernatural separation, fading strength, and the elegance of a doomed final struggle. Final feeling: tragic, haunted, supernatural, poetic, graceful, sorrowful, beautifully unsettling, and inevitable. Avoid: blood, gore, wounds, torn flesh, graphic injury, physical mutilation, comedy ghosts, cartoonish horror, excessive violence, messy anatomy, unreadable soul effects, modern glossy 3D rendering, and spirits physically harming the body.

love your linework,. and your lighting, and texturing? idk it’s all amazing as usual!

Create a vintage botanical illustration poster that reinterprets the main subject as if it were studied in a 19th-century scientific atlas, using only visible details. Use fine ink linework, delicate cross-hatching, and a realistic yet idealized illustration style.
