Recent death
The late Kim Jung-Gi had this wild sense of humor, you’d see it in his art and it came across in interviews, so without ever having been vaguely near the guy, I got the impression of someone you’d *want* to hang out with -artist types talking about him seem to bear this out. I could never draw like him, but he *definitely* made me want to try out fish eye perspective, and he definitely got me stoked to draw stuff. Who knows what other stuff he did that made it into my subconscious?
