In visual arts the term "plasticity" often refers to the ability of the artist to reproduce depth in his/her figures. You generally draw cartoons (pretty flat figures) but now you gave a big sense of the shapes. We often use the term "plastico" in Italian to express this condition... I can't find an equally effective term to describe it.

Oh okay I understand what you mean. If it helps I've been drawing a lot of inspiration from pop surrealism.
Trying to make my cartoons just more dimensional or plastico as you described :y

You're on the right track! Pop surrealism can be very inspirational, I like it. Take a look to the works of "Peter Gric". You should also see a few screens of the videogame "Machinarium" if you like, the design is very nice and it's a good half-way between a cartoonesque style and the classic painting techniques (fun game to play too)

I can see you definitely draw inspiration from these artists. I'll take a look more into it. :3
