    The things I notice about Genshin's art style is that there are a lot of gold trimmings or metalwork in a lot of their character designs that share the same saturation. They must also have cultural motifs that go with their respective country as this game treats itself as a cultural export; as characters take 9-12 months to make, it is hard to replicate that kind of extensive research by 1 person.
    Over-accessorization and a lot of chars with gloves of some kind. A lot of chars have palette colors that fit their visions, but not necessarily. I think the closest anybody to replicating the Genshin art style and fooled people into believing it to be a real character is the fanart of a small oni girl whom the artist imagined to be a leaked Kuki Shinobu.

      Wow I just searched the fan art kuki shinobu and it's insane how well they replicated genshin's style, from the pose to outfit and accessories, this character doesn't even exist and yet it feels so official

  • @PrettyLittleDeadThing
    @PrettyLittleDeadThing Před 5 měsíci +40

    Can you do a HSR art style study? I like both games’ art and they look similar but the HSR characters look more…well I’d say mature and somewhat realistic. Great video! It helped me do artstyle study more efficiently.

    • @dracolegend7739
      @dracolegend7739 Před 5 měsíci +20

      I think it’s mostly the eyes on HSR characters, most of the Genshin eyes are placed lower on the head, (Diluc is an extreme example of this lol) if you place the eyes a bit higher so they are closer to the middle of the head it should look more like the style. Another thing I’ve noticed is the hair doesn’t have as much shading and really only has it to separate the chunks with minor gradients to show the shadows (there is this one Kafka art that barely has shading at all) otherwise, the shading style is very similar

    • @arandomfan2
      @arandomfan2 Před 5 měsíci +2

      I think that the style is almost the same its just the characters that are more mature the only diffrece is the style is a bit more realistic.

    This was really informative and interesting to watch! For me the voiceover was going so fast that I lost half of the meaning so I had to slow the video down to get all the gold nuggets! 😊 You really have some great points please don't feel that you need to rush through them :) I would have gladly sat through. 30min analysis of this.

      I talked more about character design/what parts the outfits tend to be made up of in the Genshin Character Design / Designing Genshin Impact characters videos I made, if it helps you can look more into those! And it's true the genshin outfits definitely are very detailed and being able to draw outfits like there takes a lot of time😅

    I swear this video is helping so much. Probably going to remake Claire’s splash art and Ashley’s(has my name because she’s me in the Genshin verse, that’s why she doesn’t exactly have a name from Germany despite being from mondstadt, my surname is German though so she has a German surname) character banner art after I make Claire’s character banner art.
