>>4799427I think his stuff is cool but pushing him to mimic those guys is going to rob him of what makes him an interesting freak. Maybe some following of them for better pix fundies but I have seen some improvement since the first time this guy came along.
Straight up I think that if all of these little blinking messes were combined into a single art piece (like a game, maybe point and click or something) then there could be something cool be working toward.
My biggest piece of advice is to start drawing something other than characters, like a space for them to belong in. Or even just objects that have a little moving part!
