Re: Who's your favourite artist(s)/ inspiration
I have always loved Han Duusemsa's work...she was one of the few female comic book artists I knew back in the day, and she did one of my favorite comics: Arion Lord of Atlantis. She's doing Star Wars stuff now. She had a nice realist style, but also would draw a diverse cast of people...and she coukd really do sword and sorcery!
Here's an example:

I've also long loved Jaime Hernandez's Locas work in Love and Rockets. He can get a bit cartoony, but he draws people of different ages and races...and punk rockers and people from down on the block...with such a sense of humanity and the places he makes really feels like a real places. Also, depiction of a wonderful lesbian relationship back in the 1980s.
Here's an example:

Back in the day I also really loved Ms. Tree by writer Max Allan Collins and artist Terry Beatty. Great indie team, great comic...and I loved Beatty's art style. Evocative, and really got a great noir feeling...also included people of color.

Another really great noir stylist was Eduardo Risso's work on 100 Bullets. Not hyper realistic it art style, but he really captures a great sense of a gritty reality, has great use of shadows and a great artists eye. Wonderful composition.
Example:

Of course, I have always been in awe of Alex Raymond's work on Flash Gordon and Rip Kirby. His photorealistic style in the 1930-50s was simply amazing. I mean...wow. He used live models for all his art and if I could draw lie him, I would die.
Here's his Wikipedia page, which has some art:

In the realm of Japanese artists...my favorite is Ryoichi Ikegami. Another realistic artist (no big eyes small mouth) who does noir amazingly. Also his work in Sanctuary had an 80s vibe I always loved. Here's an example:

For my VNs, until my art gets up to snuff, I'd love to work with artists who can do a noir/realist style...but most of the folks here seem more into anime style.
