Hiroaki Samura

 

Hiroaki Samura (Chiba Prefecture, February 17, 1970) is a Japanese cartoonist.

He declares that he has always wanted to be a mangaka. However, unlike many of his colleagues, he attended an art academy and therefore had a classical artistic education, preferring to do black and white work rather than oil painting. He stated that he didn't like oil painting because of the smell of the colors and that he had help to get to the end of that course. However, he never completed the course as he was hired by Afternoon magazine before graduating to create the opera The Immortal.


Samura's style is very dynamic, also thanks to his "scratched" line. The physical characteristics of the characters tend to be quite realistic, and the author often constructs images in which the bodies form very expressive angles and poses, for example some detailed images of hands and feet. The landscapes and backdrops are also very well cared for. Some plates are made with a shaded pencil stroke rather.

Martin Claus, 1880-1956 (at least that's what we think, but it might be not totally correct), german illustrator. We don't know much about his life, we can try to stitch together a timeline of his career from the dates of some of his works

 The earliest example of his illustration is from a 1919 edition of the satirical magazine Meggendorfer Bl ätter, he would have been 31 years old, so it's sure that there are earlier works, but there's no evidence of them. Probably he was employed by the magazine as a staff artist. He had a different range of styles and techniques used all with technical and creative success .

WLOP

  WLOP (real name Wang Ling) is a hobbyist digital artist from China, actually based in Hong Kong; very well-known for her painting process videos, where he reflects detailed stories within the fantasy genre. He is very active in the main social media where he can showcase his art, like YouTube, Devianart, or ArtStation, as well as being active in Patreon. In YouTube, he uses the speedpaint process to show its painting process from beginning to end, with Photoshop as its main content platform. WLOP's art is beautiful and amazing, extraordinarily sensitive and nostalgic. It represents normally female characters in active or emotional scenes, sharing its whole photoshop painting process from beginning to end so its community can learn from him.
