This artist/dev is my idol and commissioning them was like a dream come true. They have inspired many, much like every artist hopes to do :>

Also, you!
I found you via FR! Your paintings are absolutely gorgeous, and I especially love how you work with plague themes and skydancers <3

Almost all of my favorite artists are russian, lol. I also love Chimerasynx for their creepy wormy style.

Weirdly many amazing artists happen to be Russian, right?

ikr? These sites are full of them.

for the absolutely amazing vibe and style to their works! There's something so "classic" to them, but with a personal twist. Oh, and medieval stylization images are incredible
her painted works *_* They are godly to me, and carry this "japanese tinge" to them, in the color palettes especially. This is one of my favs among the recent paintings https://www.furaffinity.net/view/31385398/
for crazy good designs, mood and colors <3
https://vk.com/faliessdragon and the last but FAR from the least is his author I discovered recently T_T The mood/ atmosphere in pretty much all their works is exquisite, very immersive and often so serene...
