Hey there guys!
Ya know I'm the one who brings out the strangest topics, but here I have a question for you...
What do you think define Disney's style the best in terms of drawing?
I'm asking because I'm trying so much to have a disney-ish style, mainly inspired by the 90's movies such as Tarzan, Treasure Planet, Hunchback Of Notre Dame, Aladdin and so on, but sometimes it happens that people (not necessarily on DA) still classify it as "manga", or "too manga"... please note that it's not that I hate manga or something, but when it comes to jobs and professional matters this thing sometimes turns out to be no good, at least for the experiences I've been having 'til now.
Moreover, Disney style is totally my favorite and somehow it's always been my main point of reference, even when I was younger, or in the period in which I was only drawing manga, and I want to improve in that direction. Since when I truly started applying with it, is the one that has given me more satisfaction so far while drawing
so it's more of a personal matter to me. I would like people who look at my drawings to recognize that Disney is my main inspiration! :> (luckily, it already happened sometimes!! XD)
So I just would like to know some opinions from you guys about the subject.
I've always believed that style is a matter of target- I mean, Disney movies are directed to kids first (even though they have multiple levels in which they can be read - just think of The Hunchback of Notre Dame or Treasure Planet...), and so are most shonen manga, so there is...something about the styles that is similar, in terms of graphics. For example, Eyeshield 21 (especially in the middle of the story) or Gurren Lagann (in this case an anime), I think, have something that resembles a bit Disney in terms of characters' eyes, characterization, and in some case even expressions.
So I think that it's wrong to always separate the two things and keep on saying "It's too manga here", "It's too manga there"... =___= influences most of the times are unconscious and their mix is what define an artist's personal style, after all.
But I would like to know if you guys spot some "true" differences between Disney style and a so called "hybrid" (a mix of manga and other styles, usually Disney, in facts), something that really characterize Disney...
I'm doing this kind of research all the time (seriously I've watched SO many Disney movies SO many times in the past year, and I still do! XD) and I think that I'm heading on the right direction considering the stuff I did just a year ago (was much more "manga-ish"), but it's always good to hear other people's opinions and tips, if you have some! I still have a long way to go and hearing what you think could help me improving or personalizing my current style...
IT'S KNOWLEDGE POWER
Do you think my style is still... too manga? I really want to understaaannnddd!!
Thank you very much, and sorry for the weird questions... °_°

Hey guys!
How have you been? :) Are some of you still around? I haven't been or checked DA in a very long time. I wonder what changed while I was away...? Either way, I thought I'd try and post a drawing again. And make a journal while I was at it, too! :XD: Here it is: (this option that lets you add a deviation to a journal seems nice...) I hope you're all doing fine! See ya! :D
Please read- Inappropriate use of my fanarts
ENG: Hi everyone!
I've got an important statement to make.
I've already got at least 2 warnings of inappropriate use of a very old fanart of mine, about the TV series "Supernatural", that I posted in 2011 on my Deviantart accounts for a fanart contest held by a group of fans back then. This one: https://orig00.deviantart.net/5527/f/2011/058/c/a/spn___on_the_open_road_detail_by_rennyskywalker-d3akgii.png
This fanart has been downloaded and it's being used as a design for t-shirts, hoodies etc. on various sites that sell personalized clothing and such.
I've been warned about it's presence even on Amazon.com, on a t-shirt sold by a user. Th

DA bug in uploading stuff
So I got this DA bug that won't let people upload art and stuff? Haha!
It says "failed to update, this deviation was deleted", some of you guys got it too?
I guess it should go away like many DA bugs, I wouldn't want to delete history and all that stuff some people seem to suggest haha. Also because it's not sure it'll work like that.
Still, I was meaning to upload a new drawing, so in the meanwhile you can maybe have a look at it on Tumblr here, if you want: http://rennydraws.tumblr.com/post/140177363963/wolverine-x1-version-so-rusty-with-the (yeah, yeah it's Wolvie haha)
I had even wrote a DA descriptiooon haha!! Well if you want you

In my opinion the Disney style bodies and hair are more simplistic then anime whereas the faces are the oppisite. Hair tends to be solid chunks with internal lines to add volume and definition, and the bodies are only hinted at because they tend to not show the musculature or go overboard with definition. Look at the princes and you'll notice the abs are only implied with a single line. Facial characteristics are larger and more expressive however. Their mouths are wider and fuller, the noses are more defined and the eyes are both larger, show the irises and pupils, have fuller and solid eyebrows. You can see what I'm talking about here [link]
For Girls these two links will explain it better than I ever could so:

and there is another artist who does the Disney stuff here
[link]
and I always have to suggest Mark Crilley's how to draw stuff here
