The image on the left actually shows more technical knowledge. The perspective is nearly perfect, and the lighting indicates a single, well-defined light source. The rightmost image is "prettier", but the artist is mostly relying on stacked layers of symbol painting, as practiced by people like Bob Ross.

In short: Detail does not make for good art. A solid understanding of fundamentals is more important than fancy grass.

What can we do to stop people from praising shitty art? Should art education be a part of the school curriculum?
>>
>>133406016
Pretty much. Archer's art style is meant to be a bit sloppy, throwing the kitchen sink of background details and obvious jokes (e.g. the sheep) on top of some cheesy scenery designed to look like a matte painting. It's an action sit-com hybrid, so there are actually relatively few settings to deal with in a given episode. You couldn't really get away with that screen for anything more than an establishing shot, while the anime screen would function perfectly well as the background for a longer scene.

You mean... ah, no, you actually mean literally. It has serviceable art. Archer is more about interiors and city landscapes, but even that picture is perfectly fine for what it is. If you're point is that it could be better, then yes, you're absolutely right. But there is no way you can argue that it is somehow inferior to the lazy and uninspired left picture.

was anime ever as good as western animation?
would you ever expect anime to be as good as western animation? outside of the bigger movies anime is for a niche audience and the budget is always going to incredibly limited by that.
the only thing you can say about japanese anime is they do more with less, theyve become adapted to having no resources, time or budget, but you can never totally make up that disparity.

The Japanese definitely handle action sequences better. Their usage of frame modulation works incredibly well for action, and shows that you don't always need lots of drawings to depict motion in an appealing fashion.

It has nothing to do with wanting to fuck characters.

There are tons of anime artstyles, westerns are simple unable to make characters look visually appealing.

For example, a cartoon character will never look as good as pic related, which is weird considering how good European artists were at creating faces in the past, especially during the Renaissande period.

What this image fails to discredit is:

2. Compared to anime, Wetern animation has a lot more movement. Western animation directors simply cannot get away with the (sometimes hilarious ab)use of still images and speedlines that are common in anime.

Realism in animation is boring, it's a waste of the medium when live-action will always be superior in depicting realistic motion. Disney feature films are the closest thing to mainstream western animation featuring realistic movements but even then their animators exaggerated their work to make it livelier.

I would agree with you several years ago, but modern Simpsons' animation looks like shit. Sometime it feels like they are just using some auto-interpolating tool between keyframes and there is zero interest at making good movement arcs.

An interesting post from Peter Chung, a former Disney animator:
>
While at Disney studios in the early eighties I showed Miyazaki's Lupin T.V. episodes on vhs tape to a room full of very staunch "classical" animators. They were astonished and enthralled, even though the animation was on 3's and the lip sync wasn't spot-on. It wasn't the quality of the animation they were responding to. Bill Kroyer made the comment regarding what made the films work: "it's 90% layout".

I guess it depends on what you consider appealing.
I'd consider The Warden visually appealing, he has a memorable design that stands out from the rest of his cohorts and speaks to his eccentric personality.

While Ridde there doesn't look HORRIBLE all his design really says to me is "a blonde haired guy" when he's obviously more then that.

There are as many sexy/cute girls in Western Animation as any man could need for his harem.

If you cant see the superiority in Pixar or dreamworks you must be such a deluded weeb that your opinion in animation in general is absolutely meaningless, i don't understand how you idiots haver to force yourself to only enjoy a small fraction of animation from a single fucking country, its childish as hell.

Yeah. I got the message of the movie, and in a certain sense it was realistic in how it just kind of ended and tapered off, because life does that, but there were also incredibly unrealistic scenes like how he just "happened" to run across her one day. A movie like that should've made me feel something, but it wasn't executed that well.

The art for the most part was pretty good, though there were a lot of scenes that looked pretty awful and low budget.
