  • During my private interview with Kim Jung Gi I got a chance to film him going through his 2018 sketchbook. He told us some behind the scenes secrets, insights into his process, and a bunch of jokes that I think you all will enjoy.
    Kim Jung Gi’s 2018 Sketchbook is available now along with some of his other books at www.kimjunggius.com/

      @animechansanimation Před 6 měsíci +2

      Sadly watching this pains me, anyone who wants to be like Kim Jung gi is very VERY stupid. Open your eyes, he didn't get to make that, he didn't pick the cover, they put in pictures he didn't want, it's all just a bunch of work sketchs. They raped all the fun and joy from his art by the fact that in the back of his head while drawing he knows it's for work and, it's a job and, the sketchs they don't like will be ripped out, (talk about disincoragment). Kim Jung gi spent half his year traveling for work and died in France on business away from his family, and on the inside of his right middle finger he has a giant calus bump. To sum it up if you like drawing and you want to completely slaughter the fun and make it just as miserable as ever thing else you hate, them go out there and be the next Kim Jung gi.

    One thing you must love about Kim is how honest he is with himself and with others. Like his response to why he draws naked women as opposed to clothed guys. Because he likes it that way. Whether you agree or disagree with him on that you can at least respect the honesty. Honesty like this should be preserved and celebrated because Kim, through his work, is giving us unadulterated access to his mind.

    putting in 40, 50 , 60 hours and working Saturdays.
    I have sacrificed more time
    put in the workplace on one of those 'living from paycheck-to-paycheck ' salaries than trying to become a better artist. Now I am retired and have lots of time to turn
