Rumbles Roses illustrator Shiro Kotobuki passed away the morning of the 15th (Japan time).
He became quadriplegic in an accident over 20 years ago, taught himself to draw and kept drawing sexy gals to his death.

Here's something to get you motivated.
F
And some of his works.
If you ever need motivation think of the brave quadriplegic japanese man who taught himself to paint and draw after his accident and who kept drawing sexy babes for the rest of his life.

I guess it's motivating that he overcame obstacles, but for what end? To draw some generic anime erotica? Seems like such a waste. Why put in all that effort for that?
He's a saint!
>>2563747
Kill you are self my man
>>2563726
thanks for the kek
>>2563747
he was a dude which knew he was never going to spend time with a woman, so he found an alternative
wasn't some dude saying that some artist are just expressing their limitations threw their art?
>>2563712
This guy that can't even move achieves more in two weeks than /ic/ does in an entire year
>>2563726
i too, remember my first bait
>>2563747
I too, am gay.
OK, I am going to be the first one:
HOW COULD HE HAVE KEPT DRAWING THOSE
considered he was not able to fap?

>not channeling the fap energy into the erotica you are making
you do not happen to be an expert on this topic
>>2563712
>draw from your elbow, not your wrist!
If this guy could git gud with his mouth, I think I'll be fine.
>>2563712
aren't there stories of chinese amputees who do this? and some draw with their feet?
>>2564125
>channeling the fap energy into the erotica you are making

>>2564163
People tell you to draw from your elbow or arm for ergonomic reasons, you idiot.
>>2563714
>44
holy shit the Japanese have the lifespan of a fly. are they overworked or why such poor health?
>>2564194
Japan has THE longest life expectancy in the world, and that's even crazier when you think how high their youth suicide rates are.
Sometimes people die young. One dude who had major health problems and died at 44 is not indicative of an entire country.
>>2564194
The dude was a vegetable you god damn moron
>>2564197
i was thinking of satoshi kon and a few other dudes who have recently died around the same age. an unfortunate trend
im really motivated to git gud now
>>2563714
>>2564194
>was in a fucked up car accident
>barley survived living off pavement damage
>>2564197
Because you like millions of others have clearly no fucking clue how much population effects statistical research.
Nice>>2563714
>>2564115
Who said he couldn't.
>>2563712
man he looks so nice and huggable
thanks OP for showing me his work.
>>2563712
>tfw asians don't stop drawing even if their body stops moving.
reminded me of what happened to francis tsai. Sometimes I can't help but admire people who, despite their conditions, finds a way to draw.
>>2563712
>Shiro Kotobuki pls go
Next time use the catalog, there is a self promotion thread where you can shill your work
>>2563747
I agree, why would he spend years of recovery and train himself to overcome his disability and learn a skill despite it, only to draw the things I don't like? Can't believe it.
