"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
Pixiv is a site that was made for japanese artists, though it's technically open to anyone.
An unconventional way is to look for artists from yearly releases. I have 2022 of this one:

And you can even find regional artists from similar artbooks

Edit: I forgot to mention but you don't have to purchase the physical book, you can find the features artists like so:

Pixiv is what I've been using. I guess I should research Japanese tags better. I really wish there was a "no balloons" or just a "natural looking" tag to filter it. I will definitely look at the artists other artists interact or follow though. That's a good idea.
Another note is that if you use any social media with following:followers, popular artists usually have their mutual artist circle as followed, so you can bounce around artists just by looking at who they follow.
