To put it simply...
MANY
And a little more indepth...
Most of my inspiration comes from people i know, or that are important to me.
The characters i draw are mainly based off of my personality and what is inspired into me through various things.
Like the female anthros i draw, are almost always based off of my lover :icontheasnazi1:.
while others are how i feel at the time in a way i can concetrate.
Stylistically my best friend Noah got me into mechs, robots, grafitti
though i do have a number of choice artists that have influence me greatly in different areas.
most of them i found when i first started drawing anthro on the site
"Team Artail" teamartail.com
(you can check out my OLD stuff there if you search the oekaki boards for "hatokad" or "E-1012 delta")
