>>3109988Define "imagination" retard. If I take LSD I start seeing things things that, get this, aren't there. If I told a doctor that they would say "you're just imagining things". Those space ponies I saw floating in the sky were all just part of my imagination--it wasn't there.
But is this the job of an artist? A concept project starts from a script. Someone wrote a script while taking a shit and gave it to the manager so the concept guys can get started. The concept guys, while they boast about having a (((Visual library))) didn't truly come up with the concept themselves, the imagination, but it was handed to them in script. The idea man imagined something and the artist must take that imagination (what isn't there yet) and realize it.
Same with illustrators. A client has an idea, an imagination, and the artist fulfills the request with their technique. In one form or another you have ideas yourselves but you think of it in words before you put your pen to paper. Unless you're a nosebro who draws before he thinks that is the definition of imagination.
To draw what isn't there isn't the job of an artist. To draw what does not exist yet is the job of an artist. Everyone has ideas. Everyone has imagination.
