Burnt out!

Recently I almost got burned out from constant working, but unlike last time, I managed to get back on track and rest properly. That experience inspired me to redo the older drawing from last year(Posted on my instagram profile) which was done when I was really struggling with motivation and felt as if the spark is slowly going out. Please take care of yourselves champs, because in the end, we are only human beings :)

Also, this piece was heavily inspired by art of Zdzislaw Beksinski, Kirian and Pete's Angelarium!

Done traditionally with graphite on paper. For more art and process behind it, you can find me on https://www.instagram.com/ogipavkovicart/

TFW the dispensary has way stronger stuff than you were buying from your weed guy.

Wow, that is the exact state of high I need rn

Beautiful piece!

I love it

Thank you so much! <3

Thanks!!

I feel you mate...Please take care!

So much in it. Love it.

Is it weird that I think it would be comfortable to have a hole like that to rest your arms in?

Groot? Is that you?

that eldritch zaza got me actin malthusian

Hey look, someone captured my soul in a painting.

This looks absolutely incredible

Hey its the witness from Destiny!

looks like a character from the angelarium

This picture reminds me of the blind monster from sweet home, cool picture btw

Seems a nice mix from the Nanami, nature monster from an anime called Jujutsu Kaisen and demons from Fire Force

OP forgive my coming in guns blazing but why is this so strikingly similar if not a direct copy and paste of Peter Mohrbacher's art?

Art in question: https://www.instagram.com/p/CWF8JVFoVWB/?igshid=MDM4ZDc5MmU=

It does. It's a direct copy of it.

my copy of the book is at home but a simple Google search will show you the image this artist stole. It's even more similar than I expected.

Probably should credit inspiration where its due when it's that obvious.

I linked the art in another reply in this post.

good looks, I couldn't remember the angels name so I was left to googles amazing capabilities of getting OG art

Striking similarities, uncanny even

Edit: I do want to add that drawing inspiration from pieces isn’t a bad thing, but giving credit where due is a kind gesture for your fellow artists

Reminds me of the demons in Constantine.

Really giving me Hunt Showdown trait art vibes

This explains the amount of stress leaving my body as soon as I figure out that I didn't actually forget my homework and it's also done so I don't get a 0...

Came here looking for this comment 😬

Not mentioning your clear "inspo", Peter Mohrbarcher's art "Binah" is pretty rude

(Reminds me of this)[https://youtu.be/JTycUxpBmm8] FFS HOW DO YOU DISGUISE A LINK AGAIN-

Absolutely wonderful work. I would love to have this framed in my place.

This is beautiful!! Would love a version of it without the cigarette

The hands and the little thing its holding reminds me of the dark souls furative pigmy graphic holding a dying flame

I've been stuck in burnout/depression for like 4 months now. I barely do anything, barely eat, sleep, watch TV, reddit. I wanna be somebody else

While I agree, putting “inspo” in quotes is also pretty rude. It’s inspired in the actual sense of the word imo, not a straight copy the way the quotes would imply.

Must have a bad weed guy

Chainsaw man smoke devil candidate right here.

If I could do describe depression it would be this

This goes hard. Definitely what it feels like to be burned out!

Been looking at this my entire smoke break. Damn good job, I just wish i didn't feel like how this dude looks

Thanks for the link, just bought it

And yet here we are

Man these edibles ain't shi-

This is how I feel

[removed]

That's the stance of the Top G

I feel you mate, please take care!

Ahhhh man, please take care of yourself, burnout can be really heavy if we dont take care of our mental wellbeing- health :/

I feel you mate... Have you heard of Dr K channel and clips ( Healthy Gamer is the name i think), really helps a lot to listen to his stuff and see how people can go through this period!

Thanks mate!

Thanks mate, these are really kind words!

So this probably isn't what you had expected, but this gave me huge inspiration to make a map for a TTRPG game based on a desert region with many cave/temple/dungeons along a steep rocky region rising out of the desert bordering one side. Split up into smaller maps the group wouldn't have much idea of the larger terrain until they explore more and more and eventually they figure out that a massive titan had fallen here and the areas they've been exploring are actually made within the now turned rock remains of the titan. Essentially your image here is the satellite image with desert on the right leading up to it.

Idk, seems like a neat nugget of an idea for me to explore

Thank you both guys! It was rude that i forgot to mention Petes work as well, since he really is huge inspiration to me and influenced a lot of my work, plus carrier path that im taking because of listening to his podcasts. On the other hand, just as Lifespanner have said, thats what inspiration is. Not a straight copy, but taking a bit of something and mixing it with your own stuff. Its regular thing among creative people and can be seen even in Old masters work from hundred of years ago!

Ahhhh Constantine, love that movie so hard! But to be precise, I think those demons were inspired by Beksinski and his dystopian horror artwork! Please check it out if you havent seen it already, and you will see lots of similarities :)

Thanks mate!

Thanks champ!

Ahhhh, glad it had such an effect on you!

Thanks mate, really glad you like it!

Forgive me for my cynicism, but this reply really does seem like a load of baloney. It’s really apparent that you left out your ‘inspiration’ even through your instagram post. Again, it’s fine to be inspired, but it really seems Pete was maliciously left out, whilst other less blatantly similar stylings of other artists were credited in your shoutout.

“Also, this piece was heavily inspired by art of Zdzislaw Beksinski and @kirian2009! #originalart #traditionalart #traditionalillustration #pencilartist #pencilart #graphiteonpaper #darkart”

Yes, thank you for sharing it! Absolutely forgot to mention him as well along side Kirill and Beksinski... Really love Pete and his work, plus he had a lot of influence on my art and themes! Indeed, that piece was one of main inspirations for this idea of burning out.
It feels heavy to say direct copy and paste, but if you feel that way from this piece, that might be true :/ Anyhow, thanks for sharing and reminding me once again, will do my best to mention my inspirations properly next time, take care!

It is indeed! Totally forgot to mention Petes work alongside Beksinskis and Kirills as well... Angelarium and Petes work in general has lots of influence on me, and this piece was indeed heavily inspired by one of his paintings, maybe even just as NotaTumah have said, direct copy of it :)

Holy smokes mate, im really happy it had such an positive effect on you and that it inspired such an great idea! I really hope you will make this happen and I wish you all the luck. Would love to see what happens of it in future ^^

It was not malicious, but I see your point. Thank you once again for pointing this out and im sad that it had such an negative effect on you... I will fix it right away and it will be mentioned, thats for sure!

I can respect this type of response

Awwwwwww beautiful burnnnnnn

Check out the anime Fire Force for more flaming terror. (Great art btw)

Sick!

I recognized the pose with the hands from Angelarium. Beautiful work!

inspiration or copy, it's an impressive drawing

Thanks mate! <3

Thank you so much, glad you like it! ^^

Thanks! ^^

Ffs, they didn't steal the art. While it's true they heavily inspired their art off that one, OP's has a different art style and a completely different meaning

Yeah.. like a mix between savathun and the witness.

Really nice form
