It's impossible to fully adapt your style

Hey it's been a while but I want somewhere to get this off my chest. I believe it is impossible to fully adapt your style to what you're working on. As an animator, you have to do adpt to styles in order to keep the project consistent. I've had a client that wanted me to animate in an "anime" style. And I'm like ok anime gorl time. Only to find out they meant dragon ball z, boondox type of style. Which, I'm terrible at drawing men and muscley characters. I tried anyway. I had soooo many revisions to do with this shot. "draw the hand better" "follow the character sheet" The thing is, I was doing those things I was copying exaclty or what I thought was exactly, from the character sheet, I was redrawing this hand countless times and redoing my animation over and over. All for $15. Only to realize, I think I just can't adpat to this style. I thought I would be able to, that eventually I'd get there because I've drawn muscley men before. But I didn't adapt to their standard and they ended up not going with me. This was a while ago and I'm over it but it just makes me think. Is it possible to fully adapt to a style? Watching shows I grew up watching I realized even though these artists were adapting to the styles, they all had a little bit of themselves in each drawing. You can tell it's a different person drawing each scene even with all the character sheets, directing, and micro managing. Even with "Hey Arnold!" the style itself was adapting right before our eyes over time and you could tell when the artist switched. "Spongebob" never looked exaclty the same every time. It's intersting to think about. Even with adapting to a style, a little bit of yourself will seap into it. Some directors value that, and some don't. But at the end of the day, someone will like your style. I remember I also worked on a turkey magical girl short and immediately started doodling the characters. I noticed I wasn't exactly adapting all the way, but the director loved my drawings anyway and felt I captured the character perfectly regardless. It really just depends on the person so don't feel discouraged if you can't adapt to a style "good enough" becasue eventually you will.
