Japanese Artists – Mikebosi


Guess what, painting style.

Mikebosi (mikebosi)

Mikebosi is a rather discreet Pixiv artist. Truth is, he/she doesn’t make a lot of Pixiv publications, so this explains that. Still, Regulars might remember a recent PotD that featured this artist !
While I like what he/she does, I think Mikeboshi doesn’t make full use of his/her potential : Artworks look a bit “unfinished” on some parts, and would’ve been much better with a little more effort. For example, some strong lines remain in some places while all the rest blends very well with the background.


I feel like the artist draws & colors “on a whim” rather than focusing too intensively on an artwork each time.
Well, Mikebosi is still a student (20-year-old) so he/she probably has other preoccupations. If you’ve followed other JA posts featuring painting styles, you’ll probably agree that this one has nothing too “special” about it (but it’s still very good!). I find characters quite fashionable, with stylish gothic dresses and stuff. Imo, Mikebosi is an artist with a lot of latent potential, and I can’t wait to see what he/she will bring us with some more practice.

As a general rule, I’ll never post more than 5 pictures of an artist when I feature him/her.

    I love his style. Though I still can’t understand why he drew that dress.

    By the way, there seems to be a competition on Pixiv right now with all the latest works pumped out by my favorite artists labeled [PSFR]. Do you know any details? I can’t read japanese. (^o^)

    Nice and simple. It’s a fine piece of art style.
