One thing I grew to notice with artists nowadays (or at least the ones on twt and ig) is how they use sketchbooks. Most of the time when I see artists showing off what they did on their sketchbook the drawings look strangely clean, organized and some are even polished.

I've seen a very good video about it, linking it if you're interested. Overall, one HAS to remember these sketchbooks are not real practice sketchbooks and this is not the correct way to think of it, it's really intimidating though for a beginner artists that are not aware and think this is how it has too look. Some people are good at sketching and such a book is a very appealing way of presenting it - and selling as a finished product; but it's vital everyone remembers it IS a finished product, not an actual practice tool.

I'm curious what's the best style to draw in. Since everything from anime to semi realitic cartoon is called generic or bad here. What is considered good art aside from anatomical accuracies? I used to think if i like one style a lot i could pick parts from it i like and put in my own.

No. 668473

>>668453
imo generic subject matter is more of an issue than generic art style. Any style can look good (or at least interesting) if the artist is skilled. I just get tired of pretty girl portraits/busts or anything that gets copied over and over without adding something new.

Anime art is fine. Cartoons are fine. Semi realism is fine. There are only so many ways you can draw something, after all. It’s near impossible to craft a style that’s 100% original. As long as you have decent ideas and put in some effort to improve that’s enough for me.

The artist is Paul Kwon aka Zeronis. He was a concept artist at Riot who designed several League of Legends champions (including Ahri) and a bunch of skins.
His ArtStation is pretty interesting because it's the reverse of a normal portfolio- instead of getting better over time, he loses his grasp on fundamentals like perspective and his art becomes flatter and less polished.

I think you're looking to far into this, anon. The artist isn't even selling toys. I agree that black women are heavily over-sexualized, but the artist herself (if that's her in the pic and it's not secretly some white person like what happens with a lot of products marketed to black people) is a black woman. Making porn that looks like you isn't automatically over sexualization. Also, imo nothing about the cover says you "have" to look hot while you masturbate. Its art, so obviously it's gonna be a more romanticized (for lack of a better word). Tbh it looks like every other drawing of someone masturbating. Honestly, who even focuses on how they look when they're masturbating in private.

Either way it’s so weird seeing how much they’ve improved since I last saw their work.

No. 669294

Honestly this is kinda dumb, just because an artist chooses a simpler style does not mean it's "regressed". The one before is pretty over rendered and cluttery with no place for the eye to rest. The second one does have a bit funky anatomy on the feet but that's pretty much it's only downfall. As a design it works, it's clean and simple, the elements work together. I wouldn't say it's regressing at all, he's just chosen a different direction for his art. Also considering that these new works of his are basically doodles if you look at his speedpaints kinda says something. Anyway this is the same petty shit talked about here all the time, dissing down everything that leans towards anime or semi-realism is dumb, just because it's not for your taste, doesn't mean it's bad.

No. 669296

>>669294
Fucking thank you. The drawings picked for the comparison are way too different to make a steady evaluation on, like one is clearly a very detailed bang for the buck concept art character sheet and one is a hobbyist doodle. Like you said the first piece is overrendered and design-wise looks like a generic blizzard armor while the later one has more personality and memorability to it.

No. 669297

There's pics of vibrators all over the cover and previews so I wouldn't be surprised if she's interested in a partnership with the sex toy industry. And I'm not blaming her for making money or anything but it does look like she's targeting this at women and it's just funny to see how it's regular porn/pin-up images layered with some empowerment-language justification. Picture an adult coloring book that tells men they're celebrating "the importance of self-love" while they're coloring images of attractive men in bondage lingerie that are masturbating – it would seem obvious that it's actually about teaching men how to look sexy and how it's important to always picture some observer. But yeah, this is getting OT and I get that it's just some dumb book by a no-name artist nobody is going to buy anyway.

Goddamn, the shit weebs are willing to excuse as "style." There are mistakes on the right one that clearly aren't intentional– notably her gigantic cranium, the neck and collarbones connecting weirdly, and the way the bare leg meets the pelvis. This looks like a seventeen year old drew it, full stop.
In fact the shoddiness of the drawing on the right makes me think that the art on the left is 80% a painted over photobash. Notice how shitty the hand resting on the sword is in the profile shot of the character. The regression that happened to this guy is the natural result of over-reliance on photobashing. Pic related is an example of the type of photobashing Zeronis probably does.

Honestly it feels like you're reaching with the photobashing. I cannot say he does or does not photobash but his style has been consistent for quite a while so I doubt it. Also the image on the right is basically a doodle for him, if you look at some of the speedpaints the dude whipes these out in half an hour. Dude's a designer anyway so his focus is obviously more in the design than anything else, imo the anatomy is pretty standard anime anatomy, I don't think the collar bones being so high up really even matter.

ok, so much talk about this post, went to actually check that person's profile and I gotta say, I'm legit surprised that with this quality of presentation (poorly scanned quick pencil drawings) she's managed to amass this much following, I have never seen it before. If these were digitals, or clean nice scans, I could understand because the lines are good and show confidence, characters are very expressive which is fun and this kind of stuff tends to be popular, but usually people are not able to look past presentation like this.

To me personally using muh anatomy as a crutch to base a piece's worth on is such a ignorant thing to do because any /beg/ bucket crab can point out flaws with it, but evaluating artwork based on other factors takes a more trained eye. With stylized artwork the focus is not on creating accurate anatomy on par with marble statues but focus on the technique. I'm willing to forgive broken limbs or extreme proportions if, for example, the focus in something like >>669530 and >>669687 is clearly on the movement and expressiveness of the characters, not how accurate the proportions are. It would be much more distracting if it was a super realistic piece with a 360 degree bent wrist.

But of course this fucking thread counts only over-rendered concept art as the true test of skill and is salty over anyone who has a following because they're able to produce crowd-pleasing material people find appealing because it's not ~true art~. Whenever someone is outed for self posting in this thread they turn out to be a fucking mess of a twitter doodler so Cope.

Dynamic drawings, mostly fan art, draws a load of different popular anime so there will be something for everyone while relying on some very safe mainstream characters to bounce back to (Miku Hatsune), must put out drawings very fast compared to other artists, being phone photos of sketches which pleases the algorithm.
I think it's a combination of the varied fandom stuff, which also helps for connections with other popular people, and having a style that does well without taking much time.
I can't say this for sure but not having a separate art account from your personal account probably helps too with the relatable posts and the cat pictures. If you are "problematic" forget about that tho.

My bad. That school has a lot of issues with male faculty, a lot of anons are aware of this so I didn’t think to spoonfeed context. His art is Asian-centric and long before he was with Soey it was and he always only posted pics of/with Asian women which was strange. Composition and skill is a dime a dozen, most of his pieces revolve around naked young women and he always picked young women for studies so he had an excuse to have them sitting naked in front of him for long periods of time. Why Soey thought this wasn’t a red flag is beyond me. He’s clearly influenced her a lot too, because she too only draws naked women now. Both are skilled, never said they weren’t, but fuck is he gross and overhyped.

I agree, his renders aren’t very skilled esp for a man of his age but stylistically it’s nice. It would be great if he applied that style to something besides obsessing over naked women. He won’t though. It’s even more of a shame for Soey because she’s extremely talented but she’s dishonest and she seems to have developed the same male-centric view of art as well and she’s too heavily influenced by him. A waste of amazing ability. Picrel, if you scroll to the beginning of his ig before he met Soey and made her his TA he just posted pictures with Asian women.

this is so niche it doesn't come up in searches, you can't expect people on an international imageboard to automatically know everything about some schools in US, it shouldn't even count as spoonfeeding at this point. But I see your point, I could imagine his students of Asian origins probably feel very uncomfortable around him, I guess it may be such a grey area the school will never do anything about it though. >>669924 is right about Soey, her painting skills actually surpass his, makes you wonder if without his influence she'd approach wider variety of subjects in her work.

Soey is very talented, I can only imagine how far she’d go if she’s stop painting women with string and cloth and broaden her horizons a bit. At this point she seems to do exactly what he does, just much better. I’m hoping as she gets older maybe she’ll grow out of it?

Muh style will never be a free pass to draw hideously. Plenty of things are crowd-pleasing but are objectively shit.
Even when a drawing features hentai monster girl with HHH cup tits, it's still plain easy to distinguish artists with strong foundations who can make the subject aesthetically pleasing and technically competent from those who are clearly lacking in key aspects. Stop acting like anyone is expecting you to draw to the proportion of a medical journal, don't be willfully obtuse. People will always nitpick and criticize. Yes, I do acknowledge that amateurs tend to take the wrong issues with a piece and most of the fixes I've been on here are trash.

Chinese anon here. It goes a bit deeper than that. Old Xian (artist for 19 Days Webtoon) drew a picture of their characters in "traditional" clothing that looked too similar to the hanbok (they referenced outfits from several C-dramas and paintings but did not try to claim the hanbok was of Chinese origin, so if anything it was more of ignorance than malice). Many South Koreans and Chinese alike became enraged due to the ongoing hanfu vs hanbok discussions.

South Korean Twitter flamed them alive for cultural appropriation. Chinese Twitter flamed them alive for "hating their own culture". Rei screenshotted the comments and posted on Weibo defending Xian, but took the opportunity to be nasty towards Koreans and being all-around racist.

She then tweeted in Korean asking for support/to buy her stuff (based on translated text, I can't confirm). Korean Twitter found her racist rant from Weibo and called her snake ass out.

It's a huge mess and I wish I didn't understand it.

Basically, Old Xian did cultural appropriation (whether or not its actually cultural appropriation is debatable depending on whether you side with Chinese or Koreans), and the Twitter PC crowd came for their ass.

Its a massive overreaction imo, especially considering Xian already apologised and many people (including westerners) are still harassing them over their "unforgiveable" actions.

Rei may be two-faced bitch, but she didn't go on a racist rant out of absolutely nowhere like the original anon thought. People are coming at Xian too harshly for a drawing they made for fun.

The sad thing is that you absolutely cannot reason with this crowd. At least with Western SJWs people won't start calling you racial slurs.

Honestly for me it's the kind of people who want to be professionals or do commissions but absolutely refuse to learn anything outside of comfort zone and whine about it. Sorry but if you've drawn for years and are barely a beg, that's not about you being unlucky but lacking a work ethic. Also the copycats annoy me, because they usually only got shiny rendering but absolutely shit anatomy and perspective, basically lack of effort also. I can respect established artist like sakimi because despite her current art being god fucking awful, she did do her grind and imo deserves to do the fuck she wants, coomer shit or not. But the copycats are not like that, they only copy the rendering skills of someone else but don't bother to do any learning on their own beyond that.

I don't really care for this guy much, his style of video can be incredibly grating with how slow and monotone it is (I know that's the joke but it's still annoying), but I didn't know about this drama until he pointed it out and it's pretty juicy.

The two in this drama are both NSFW artists and it's hilarious seeing them fight over who traced whom when both of the artists (in my own opinion) are degenerates who draw coomer anatomies.

This kinda oot reply of an Asian from SEA here. Judging based on my opinion, korea online circles is quite messed up. This sums up:

- Threesibo, who's already a "registered" cyber bully in the Korean artist community even now she continues upload videos with comments disabled (which if you search her username, you'll find "drama" or "controversy" at the end along some "roast" videos made by koreans as well). One video claimed that she disguises as a Japanese artist under the name Seira, that draws South park fanart.

- Minus8/Chtkghk, as well the anon said on >>671108, godawful inferiority complex, this artist often talk trash about his own art, hating his art, even tweets about himself about doing illegal things such as stealing, abuse, even r4pe. Back in the tumblr years, he once talked about how badly he wanted to r4pe a minor, as well as selfclaiming himself as a pedo for drawing minor cartoon characters porn for his sick desires. I actually feel him and feel bad for him since he has mental issues that hadn't have taken care of.

-Moymyog. Okay i'm quite unsure about this and people have heard of her… Since she was only active on tumblr until she deleted it last year, she was well known as a webcomic creator that loves to create ocs related to fandoms, BATIM, Hazbin Hotel, Arcana, even Cuphead. Why is she so controversial? Well… she was once drew her oc "making out" with another oc that belongs to a minor (16 years old from EU). Of course many peeps from the Cuphead, Hazbin hotel fandom backlashed her. One tumblr post shows that she entirely acts horribly erotic by drawing multiple NSFWs in an NSFW channels of a predominantly minor infested Discord server. Not only that, she has done such many fiasco since 2012, she started twitter being rude, bully, and sexually harassed people. She often depicting her ocs as a "queen bee" and others as the slave, the minion. And yes… she started mess since she was 18/20, 29 by now

https://twitter.com/step_nie/status/1326939281470840832
What do you think? IMHO that Riot artist just had a type but beyond being a cute girl with colored hair there are no real similarities. Having Seraphine join K/DA on that girl's birthday couldn't be a choice some character designer makes, these things are decided by marketing team so it's not really likely it's anything more than a coincidence. Still, I hope the story is developing because it has a good drama potential.

So I just found this from the profile of Zeromika on DA, which is numyumy's old account. For those who do not know Numy was a massive scammer who kept hopping accounts everytime she got caught with tracing. After digging around a bit, I was able to link W00neul to Nixeu but I didn't get a direct link from Nixeu to numy, though considering that W00neul is entirely wiped off the internet and every link leads to nixeu when you google w00neul, makes me think it's legit. I also found some proof of her possible tracing again on Nixeu account. All of it isn't very good but some are a bit striking when you pay attention to facial details especially. The artworks on lil.milkyskin that's apparently her other account is literally just smudging photos and claiming it art.

She's a new character of League of Legends game, and the controversial thing about her is the marketing strategy - Riot set up a twitter account where they make they seem like a real person with real life and real issues despite, which is an questionable tactic considering all she is is a product that Riot wants people to spend money on.

To continue off of the last anon, Seraphine also has the exact same kit/abilities as the character Sona which a lot of people really think is stupid. I actually think more people hate that she's essentially a Sona rework and obviously just pandering to koreaboos and horny guys rather than her having a strong parasocial relationship with her followers although she also had a controversy about being lesbian/singing a lesbian song about her female friend when they had an "argument", being Chinese when she's just some boring white girl and supposed to be singing in a Korean pop group, and then of course her Legendary skin (legendary skins only come out once every two-ish years and have different forms and a LOT of cool features; you would never think to give it to a new champion but Riot did so which just makes it even more obvious that Seraphine's entire thing was supposed to be a product to sell). TB Skyen on youtube does a really good job about talking about what the issues with Seraphine are.

I'm tired of people thinking art school are worth something. Hence, I'm tired of artists that make art their main jobs, because they eventually become sell outs and forget their own definition of art to fit the norms.

They keep spamming me of mail so I apply to their cash grab things. I got accepted in a "recognized" art school but it's full of pretentious /beg/. I'm tired of these degreed artists that keep thinking they're better than someone who actually learnt without getting babysat.

To make it short, keep your hobby a hobby and find an actual stable job. The art market (I hate this expression) is saturated today,check out some employers testimonies. They tell that they can have good art for really cheap because many artists lowball their prices to make unfair concurrency.

I'm artschoolfag so I'm definitely biased, but the way I see it is: tons of people right now are making their living off of creating art. If you've got the skills, drive, and resources, why not go for it?
The actual instruction part of the courses is good, but way less important than the industry experience that the instructors have. They help out a lot with learning the "not fun" parts like how to do invoices and contracts and what to charge and how to work with difficult clients. Also the contacts that you accumulate just by attending and talking to people can be really valuable. Being "babysat" while you draw is not what most people are getting out of the experience lol. (Though having lots of artists at your disposal who want to give feedback on your work is insanely helpful and difficult to find elsewhere.)
Of course, a ton of people get degrees at an art school and never do anything with it. It really just depends on the individual's willingness to put in the work, and their circumstances.

I think the only thing more tiring than generic pretty girl digital art is league of legends pretty girl art. It becomes grueling to pull through fanarts of the same girls from KDA over and over and over, all in the same shiny painting-like style and purple-pink-blueish color palettes, when you just want to find something cool of some other female character to look at.

Well anons, I've spent years grinding my art skills without posting it anywhere online, and it's about time I try and make some money from it. I wanna do commissions but since I have no social media presence it's gonna be tough. Is there anywhere I could advertise that would get me clients quickly despite the fact I haven't posted anything? (I'd put examples in the commission sheet of course) If this isn't really a possibility what would be the best place to start growing, and how long would it take for me to start getting commissions? This feels like a stupid question tbh but I really am lost here

Put up a twitter or an instagram, post daily, engage with as many other users as you can and just be mega active overall. Those two social medias love activity.

The downside is that it's tiring as fuck and if you show any signs of decreasing activity your engagement and etc tanks pretty hard (mainly on insta).

Or become an absolute sell-out and draw either coomer shit or furry shit. That also works.

But still…why grind your art in secret and then start posting and expect clients and a following so fast out of the blue? That's a pretty dumb move in itself, honestly. Many people love seeing artists develop and grow in real time.

I get the guy who was trying to impress her was lame but let's say Sera IS inspired by her… so? So what? The worst thing I can imagine is coomers will make porn of Sera but Sera just looks like a typical League model that coomers already make porn of. I read the article and it seems like a lot of her problems stem from the fact that she actually identifies with Sera, she mentions that people ripping apart Sera's features makes her feel like they're ripping apart HER features, but Sera doesn't even fucking look human, she looks like another anime vidya girl. Seems like it's a personal problem, not a Sera problem.

Even in the case Seraphine was based off her, which I doubt, is it really a violation of someone's likeness? There are thousands of skinny fair skinned girls with pink hair out there, it's not an infringement to make a character with physical traits tons of people have. Even if they got the idea to make Seraphine from her, she doesn't own the concept of having pink hair, taking selfies, or being artsy.

The issue with retards who’d tag that shit is not the ~deep signifigance~ it would be that they’d start raging if you drew “”them”” wrong or in a sexual position or whatever the fuck and send people after you.

General learning how to art question, please don't be mean;

Is there a way to teach yourself drawing details like this without some indepth technical knowledge? I don't think all of the mecha / machinery / cyberpunk environment artists are engineers, but I can never conjure ideas how to make it look good from imagination. With stuff like anatomy, fashion and so on, you can study to achieve higher level of good quality details, but what about this case? Just copy others until I magically get it?

You don't need to flat out know engineering but speaking from experience it always helped me staring at big machines in details. Trais, car engines, aircraft, etc. Sometimes try to draw some of those from observation. You'll eventually grow used to it.

Annie is a rich Chinese American (think stereotypical rich family from china) who is insanely stupid. They wrote a long twitter thread justifying purchasing a purebreed instead of adopting a cat from a shelter claiming it was difficult to find a shelter cat atm. Then spoke about how an ESA cat would help with their heart condition.

A few weeks into adopting taro, she starts to bleed from shitting, and it turns out Annie was giving it hard food way too early for her age, which was really concerning. I dont care if you adopt an animal for emotional support, but at least research how to take care of them instead of adopting a ~kawaii kitty~ to post about.

In the same way you understand where to put folds and seams in clothing, mecha artists understand where to put pistons and screws. I would recommend finding those "exploded" engine/product designs, where they have all the pieces pulled apart from each other and you can see how they interlock and what their purpose is, and try drawing them yourself. You also need a strong foundation in perspective. If you only draw people all day its easy to think you're better with perspective than you are. Perspective made easy for basics, and Scott Robertson's how to draw for mechanical. (Scotts book is complex, don't feel bad if you don't fully get it on the first try)

Anybody here knows oncha/mazamuno? Her art is good (even if sometimes she can't really ace the usual anime proportions, but that's nitpicking) but she's a fakeboy who totally isn't a girl, she says she's trans but of course everything she draws is pink, involves twinks, bdsm clothing, make-up and gay shit. Kinda like with heartmush a lot of people started following her because they believed she was a guy drawing cute and gay stuff while she's really just one of the many fujos. Picrel is just one of her latest pieces.

For the latest in Clone High fandom-related autism, a relatively popular artist within the circle (@hipnoteeth on insta) has just now come under fire for having drawn NSFW images of some of show's characters, the characters in question being teenaged genetic clones of historical figures JFK and Gandhi. Their discord server is currently on nuclear lockdown with once-loyal fans now declaring them to be a pedo and a predator who deserves to be imprisioned and/or murdered for drawing "CP". Their following count is already beginning to fall as we speak, and their account has been set to private at the time of writing. The discord server in question has also been deleted. The incriminating images are shown in picrel.
Hipnoteeth claims that the characters are meant to be college aged in their artwork and that they had no malicious, pedophilic intent and are likely panicking as they see their reputation being dragged through the ground. What are you guy's thoughts on this situation?

No. 675665

You know I can't help but feel like the reason why TD is always gabbing on and on about how she's an "Adult" or this whole "Have to do wdult things" is because she's so insecure about where she is currently in her life. She doens't work a regular job, she hasn't released her book, and her art really hasn't went anywhere (nor improved).

And then of course she had to briefly throw in her wedding and how apparently people think it's weird that her and her husband didn't go on a honeymoon. I have to really wonder if people find it that weird, especially with her who doesn't have a job and wouldn't be able to afford some fancy vacation. Just sounds like such a first world whining.

It's probably just my own pet peeve when it comes to this artist but she just says some really irritating shit at times and I wish she would just get a grip.

Her parents are upper middle class, and she’s probably working class with her husband. If she wasn’t with him she’d straight up be in poverty. Trust me, I get very professional jobs and I can barely break 15k as a freelancer a year, and I don’t depend on godforsaken deviant art commissions. She gets about 500 from Patreon and I bet maybe 200-300 a month from YouTube, I doubt this girl makes more than she would in a minimum wage job. She says she takes commissions but I doubt that’s extra, those are for her PATRONS because she included that in one of the tiers. Not to mention, we’ve seen her commission list, girl hasn’t touched it in months.

As fancy as this looks, yeah. Like many anons stated getting accepted on a fanzine, even more a Western one, doesn't mean anything because of the amount of ways unrelated to art skill people can get picked.

I can't say anything for Eastern zines because I've never participated in one, but I've participated in a good number of Western zines (both big and small) and in a good chunk of them I saw people with shit art skills getting in because some strings were pulled behind the curtains.

For zine mods to truly, truly pick artists based SOLELY on art standards then they'd have to ignore everything else about them and being honest, in a fandom project? That's nearly impossible.

TL;DR Yeah in most cases Western fanzines tend to have a lower standard because of bias in the mod team.

Yeah you're right. There are little snippets of her sharing about her life growing up and while she tries to downplay it, she really did grow up in the upper middle class. Her parents owned 2 houses (If I remember correctly) and that's something a regular working class family could never afford to do. And she's commented how they live in a richer part of the city. And I'm not trying to hate on her for her upbringing, you don't control what you're born into but I just cannot help but roll my eyes when she mentions things like "Normal people money" or when complains about how her and her husband couldn't go on a honeymoon because that video wasn't the first time she brought it up.

The 500 + the possibly 200-300 a month can sound like a bit but then you have to count in the cost of living in Southern California and it really isn't that much. But you bringing up the minimum wage thing reminds me of when she was being absolutely ridiculous during her job hunt before the Covid-19 lockdown. She was trying to look for jobs where she makes more than minimum wage but was not open to working a job like a factory because she can't stand up for long periods of time nor an office type job because she still wants to be active with her digital art and doesn't want to be at a job where she's on a computer and it's just… What the hell does she want? She thinks she's too good for customer service/retail because the wage is too low but she's not willing to work the kind of jobs where she could make a little over minimum wage, never mind that she's been out of the job market for like a year or two by now. That video was just absolutely ridiculous.

This is the ultimate entitled attitude. She doesn't want to work those jobs because they're HARD, no one wants to work them. And they don't pay. So, she'd rather do a comfy job but takes it to the next level by even being lazy at that, too. She literally wouldn't last a day in the real world without her parents or her husband, she's never been brought up to work hard.

And can you imagine what her parents are like now, and what they think of her now? Like, they're probably really fed up with the fact that she is 28 years old and can't hardly live on her own, even after they've "given her everything a child could possibly need" because they were wealthy. She mentioned that her husband's dads were really rude and abusive to them when they lived there - but lets put it into context- they were literally like 25 or older, getting MARRIED and wanting to keep living with HIS parents? They had to have known that she comes from some money and were tired of it, I doubt that they themselves were upper middle class, or it hasn't been mentioned. She MENTIONED that they wanted to kick them out to "let a homeless person in". Yeah, obviously Michi, they think a homeless person kind of deserves to live with them more than you continuing to suck off of any teet presented to you.

What happens if her husband got sick and won’t be able to work for a while?? Is she seriously going to depend on a gofundme, and say that she “never asks for help unless it’s important” when just a few months ago she did a gofundme for a new “””””work”””” laptop? Unbelievable.

No. 676021

Her problem is her insecurity. She just needs to live her truth. She just needs to admit to her and everyone else that living this lifestyle- is practically living the dream. She gets to do her dream job, she gets to draw for money, she has a lot of people who adore her and she has a family and a husband who love and support her.
Yet she feels insecure because she's not living up to her own standards. She's critical of other people of being lazy and unprofessional and in the back of her head she knows she's all the same.
You can't have both Michie, eitehr work hard and work up to your own standards or just accept the fact that you're really childish and living the dream and just be grateful for it. A lot of people would kill to have your life, even if you live in an apartment building or whatever and you're not rich. Stop throwing pity parties for your fans because its really unbecoming. I'm guessing a lot of them are high schoolers who are ALSO supported by their parents, but it gets really old when you're talking to slightly older people who have to support themselves.

And she claims that what she makes now is the minimum wage in California which I kinda doubt.

>This is the ultimate entitled attitude. She doesn't want to work those jobs because they're HARD, no one wants to work them. And they don't pay.

Exactly. I'm affled with her lack of self awareness and it's especially telling how even though she's in a position a lot of freelancers would love to be in, she's still lazy with it. She doesn't practice, she has a huge backorder of commissions (mostly from her teenage fans, older people would definitely find that unacceptable for her to get it as big as it is and that she keeps adding more to it).

It makes me wonder how long she stuck with her retail jobs. I know she said she worked in the school district until she got laid off from budget cuts but I just have a feeling that even with the few retail jobs she had after that, she didn't keep them for long and yeah, it's pretty clear that she wouldn't be able to make it on her own without her husband and parents and there's nothing necessarily wrong with it assuming her husband doesn't mind supporting her but I wish she would stop with this undeserved subtle smugness of the position she is in with her current life. Though it's probably slipping since she says they've been facing some rough patches financially since Covid hit.

Samefag but yeah I really don't think her in-laws were these horrible people. Getting more insight to her background and how she conducts herself with how "busy" she is, I feel like she was one of those people who didn't really contribute much help to the household at the time. I remember she said that her in-laws didn't understand how busy she was with her commissions but it's like… Seeing the commission queue that has slots dating back to 2018, I have to seriously doubt that she was as busy as she claimed. And don't get me started on the wedding bullshit. They get married at a time where they were struggling financially, had to find a place to live, and they had it on a Monday of all days which she still is peeved that not all her family showed up to it as well as them not contributing to the wedding. The way she described things sounded like a shit-show.

>>675954
I feel like you may be onto something here. Because with how much she always feels like she needs to explain to her audience about how adult she is and how busy she is, it's coming from a place where her parents may be coming down on her with where she is currently. I think that's why she was really trying to get her book published last year so she can start selling copies on Kindle but that obviously fell through.

>>675993
Oh god the Laptop gofundme, almost forgot about that. Absolutely ridiculous because her art is not that complicated and detailed, she's not doing 3D modeling or animation, a standard laptop would work just fine for the art she does, plus she has an IPAD and I think a Huion Display Tablet. No, she just wanted a new gaming laptop but disguised it as a "work laptop", it's pretty obvious. And good point, if something happens to her husband, they are financially fucked unless her parents help or they do that GoFundMe. This is why her turning her nose up at part-time retail is stupid because other than her being picky to where she wants to make at least $15/hr or more but not open to working the jobs that pay that rate, she'd at least have some income coming in to add with the Patreon funds while still being able to have time to work on her art.

I also feel like she could benefit from making friends with people around her age or older. I don't think it's impossible for an older person to be friends with those far younger but it's also good to have people your age or older to bounce off with as well but I feel like the main reason she sticks with high school or fresh out of high school/early college age people is because she feels they won't judge her.

No. 676167

>>676021
Exactly. I want to like her personally but she just makes it so hard to do with how self-unaware she is. If she was just honest with herself, got a grip of her situation and just stayed humble and grateful for the position and preferably avoided talking about serious real life stuff that she clearly has no experience in since she's in a pretty cushy spot and just stuck with topics she knows or share more of her personal stories or whatnot, I think people wouldn't dislike her as much.

Not defending her but depending where she lives in southern california 15/hr is minimum wage. Many different counties are slowly moving towards "livable wage" so her looking for something that 15 or slightly above 15 might semi realistic. Many "luxury" retail companies will pay slightly above but never more than a dollar. Again depends where in socal she lives.

I don't think it's impossible for an older person to be friends with those far younger but it's also good to have people your age or older to bounce off with as well but I feel like the main reason she sticks with high school or fresh out of high school/early college age people is because she feels they won't judge her.

That’s literally what anon said anon, it all depends on the area. But even if there’s a job a dollar or two below, TD shouldn’t be discouraged or immediately expect to be paid $15 an hour for not “”working”” in well over a few years/have a degree which allows her to earn above $15
Idk, anon if your working rn but this view is very idealistic. Like, she doesn’t have to stay at the same job, she just needs to dip her feet in for credibility instead of expecting a $15 part time job to appear

>>676431
Ntsa, but anon, just think for a moment. Who you have as friends can influence your view/priorities. Idk if your out of highschool(least I hope you are because of this website) but when you actually talk to minors, their goals and situations are completely differ from yours. Most minors(Im including those who have not graduated highschool) look at adults but can’t really emphasize their situation unless similar to their own. TD, who lacks more “adult” friends or those in her age gap, settles for relating w/minors. Which wouldn’t be too bad but it doesn’t really push her to be more independent because she’s friends with most who are at a time in their life where they depend on their family/the school curriculum.

Of the top of my head she posts a lot on her story about hating men and complains when people report it or respond, has a lot of self harm featured in her art and can’t deal without it getting removed (her account has been temp banned before), a lot of her art and original characters feature abuse: her beings of power series old guy takes young girl because she has his dead lovers spirt in her or something, he raises her then proceeds to have a sexual relationship with her she also consistently drew the girl from this series with bruises, her inside voices as previously mentioned has a main character who is mentally ill, self harms and is sexually and emotionally abused by her older brother, has a serial killer character who is shipped with another artists character (Binathewitch) heavily romanticises their relationship makes a lot of content of him holding a gun to her head or being physically violent towards her, has another couple that consist of two killers (older guy and young girl again) that go on the run also heavily romanticised I get the vibe that she can’t draw a relationship without it being edgy, physically violent or abusive or it being some weird age gap thing

Mind you on her account where she posts all of this content (gore,abuse,sexual violence and generally edgy content) she posts videos and pictures of her young son and husband (who she’s talked shit about to her followers via her stories multiple times)

She also cannot take any criticism and seems to see such as a personal attack and as mentioned uses “I Have trauma!!11!!” As her main defence even if it’s just people asking her to add content warnings and then gets angry posts a huge rant on her story (sometimes deactivates her account over it) I’m pretty sure she’s in her mid to late 20s but never seemed to mature past highschool with her moaning about the rules of an app she uses to post but not sticking to those rules and her constantly edgy/romanticist artwork of abuse

I understand that anon but until the minimum wage raises to "livable wage", that's just the reality for her right now. It's either she gets a job that does pay 15+/hr but has to sacrifice something like comfort (office job or factory) or has to make due with a retail job since I know she says she doesn't want to work in the food industry which I personally understand. That or she stops being a sloth and actually gets through the commission queue and practice her skill more. Because with where she is now, she can't keep relying on commissions from high school kids and then be surprised if she's not making all that much because kids only have so much money and with the level her art is at right now, she doesn't look all that enticing to older people who may have more money to spend unless she gets lucky.

>>676431
Not at all. Not all older people will judge her though and again, not trying to belittle those younger but as someone who is a year older than TD and used to only interact with those younger than myself who were usually fresh out of high school, while I haven't really made friends personally, at my job where I interact with people around my age it does feel nice to jibe with those who are in a similar spot you are in and it helps stimulate the mind if that makes sense?

I just feel that if TD only keeps around with teenagers and early young adults, she's gonna get stunted mentally (well more so than she currently is). Again, not saying she should dump her friends, friends are friends regardless but I'm just saying that she could benefit from also having friends whom are her age or older as well.

No. 676608

It really depends on the teacher but I remember when I was briefly in art school back in 2010, I had this one life drawing class and there was this girl who I think was there longer than I was where the teacher would always gush over her work while being a bit aloof or not as interested in some of the other students work. You could tell by the kind of energy he put off when it came time to critiquing our projects. It was the most surreal thing I had ever experienced but I was fresh out of high school at the time lol.

After seeing her vlog she put up yesterday, it really does make me question her lifestyle. First off, how is this girl ALWAYS getting sick? It's always something with her that prevents her from doing her commissions or taking a "vege-day", at least in the vlog but also how in a lot of her previous videos she usually would mention how she's not feeling well. It's the most bizarre thing and I hate to say it but she really does come off like that Jewsih stereotype of constant complaining. I know everyone's body is different but jeez. I really can't help but feel that the only reason she gets sick so much is that she doesn't live the best lifestyle and no offense but her obesity might also play a part in it as well.

Also when she explained about her mental health, this gives all the more reason why a part time job could help. She can get out of the house and breathe a little (while making some side income) and not be essentially confined in her apartment. I would just say she should just take more walks or something but you know, covid and whatnot but also she'd probably just quickly get too lazy to do that so at least with a job it would force her to get out.

From my experience, yes, though it's probably a bit less obvious compared to high school. But you basically compete over who gets the good exhibition spots, the covers of publications, the scholarships, the assistance positions, the teaching jobs, the rec letters, the prizes and all that and the professors are basically deciding it or at least have the biggest impact. In class you can usually tell really easily which students the professors like by the way they talk about their images - some profs are fairer than others though, of course.

That's a good question and I too am getting tired of these girls. What the fuck is the problem with just being a crossdressing girl? It was never a problem back then so why is this a thing?

they do it because they would be "cancelled" for sexualizing gay men if they say they are girls. I can guarantee most of them are don't truly believe they're trans. Also only trans "gay" men complain about fujos, actual gay men do not give a fuck or and the weeby gay men usually like bl too.

Ok I get that this sucks, but that's parts of the business aspects of being an artist.

Yeah I saw this video when she released it and I agree. It's clear she's bitter about her own failures but like >>676925 said, it's part of the business aspect. Sometimes things sell, other times they don't. I do agree with you anon that what she should've done was order a smaller batch just to test the waters to see just how much people were interested in the merch. But I'm one of the people who think her art style looks like shit and no amount of "I have a cartoony style" changes that, plenty of cartoony artists who have a pleasing to the eye style, I'm not really sure who would actually buy merch of her art style tbh.

But anyway yeah, your advice was good anon and should be what all smaller artists consider when getting into the merch game.

>Michie, you may have a lot of subscribers but outside of youtube you have less than 5k followers on your other platforms


Even though Michie has a lot of YouTuber subs, I have to wonder just how many of them are active. Her views are pretty inconsistent and don't even get near around her sub level.

Thanks. Yeah I have no clue about this business shit and all the work that must go into it, but there must be a safe option where loss is minimized. Maybe don't order a huge batch with all the pre order money, and just do pre orders alone. It's also possiblet o run clear polls on twitter or something to get a more definative look at who really would buy.

The business aspect is really the scariest part of art for me, even though I'd love to be able to get into it. I think I'd just have to do a ton a research first and look at all the options and not immediatly jump to bulk buying stuff people might not buy.

it's fakebois who bully women to make it seem like they're real mlm, but they fail to realize real men do not give a fuck about fujos or sexualization. Straight men don't get cancelled cause troons are afraid of actual men.

probably because nobody is claiming that lesbian porn is anything else than a fetish. Yaoi and bl seems a little different because the people who consume it try to act as if they're somehow more virtuous than than straight guys who like lesbian shit. I mean how would you even cancel a dude a like that?

"hey this guy likes lesbian porn!"
That guy: "yea, so?".

Now I've never seen the appeal of BL or yaoi so I'm not super well versed on the community but I have seen some who act as if they're somehow super progressive supporting gay rights etc by liking bl but that then causes them inner conflict when they have to face the fact that it's in reality just fap material for straight girls and have nothing to do with gay right. I don't personally see the issue myself though, you can support gay rights and enjoy BL, just like you can be against abuse in relationships and still read a trashy YA novels. I guess it's just about ego really.

Well, here's the long walkthrough of it:
>Fujos have been hated and shamed for being women with sexual autonomy separate from male gaze since the fucking 70's or so, scrotes even created the loli porn genre because they were so salty over fujos having their gay erotica becoming so popular
>In the mid to late 2010s someone comes up with the bright idea of starting to claim all fujos are straight white girls who hate actual IRL homosexuals and only like them as pretty anime boys basing their whole understanding of the genre on obnoxious old BL tropes from the early 00's such as Gravitation
>Ironically a ton of fujos are lesbians and the whole genre was created by Japanese women
>Even more ironically the people forcing this narrative are FTM transsexuals, actual gay men don't care at all
>More and more fujos convert to being fakebois because they're afraid of being cancelled for being a woman that likes gay erotica made by women for women i.e. a fujoshi
>These fujos descended into fakeboi troonism start calling themselves "MLM" and co-opt the term fujoshi to mean "straight white woman who fetishizes homosexual men" when the original meaning was a reclaimed slur from 2chan that directly translated to "rotten/spoiled woman" i.e. a woman unfit to marry
>Because most of the woke fakebois are terminally autistic (as in, actually on the spectrum) and mentally stunted purityfags they consider ~true MLM~ to be only wholesome hand holding coffeeshop AUs because gay men are chaste and soft and never do such unchristian things such as sex, and all that yaoi those nasty fujoshis like is just rape and abuse
>Now we got two types of fakebois, the other side is saying "as a gay man I hereby declare you're fetishizing us" and the other side "as a gay man I say we aren't" and they're all just mostly lesbian women into other lesbian women dressing as men
>Some regular women join them simply out of the pleasure of getting to step on those disgusting fujos who like sinful gay shit
>Actual gay men still don't care and even tell them to shut the fuck up and read their porn but are silenced by the woke side right away

Right. Yeah I have a few gay actual men friends and they generally don't care about BL or yaoi. At the most, one has said it's a little too unrealistic as the way they portray men in those stories is not like it is in the real gay dating world but he also knows it's just fantasy so he thinks it's harmless lol.

>>676940
No no, you're all right, I was just being ignorant lol Men generally don't care about this stuff unlike women who tend to so it makes perfect sense now why a straight man liking fantasy lesbian porn wouldn't get scrutinized since other men don't care but with women tend to care about it more which leads to annoying problems and arguments.

No problem anon, just a misunderstanding but yeah that was the main issue with TD, the issue was that she was not willing to work retail because she still wants art to be her main job. Whatever retail job you're working, I feel like it would conflict with Michie's comfort since she says she can't stand for too long nor does she want to be sat on a computer when she does most her work on a computer for her art. So you see the dilemma that she's causing for herself? lol That's why I was suggesting she get her ass in gear and just try to make her art work since she's in that position to do so but she's squandering it by not finishing commissions in a reasonable time frame nor improving her style so it's more appealing to potential buyers.

The way male vs female porn artists react to the sjw crowd comes down to male vs female socialization. Men who draw porn don't give a fuck what anyone thinks and happily accept the degenerate label. Women still want to be seen as moral good people while drawing their shit, so they hide behind pronouns and gay representation.

The thing is that the obnoxious fujoshi stereotype that wants a gay pet are certainly awful but very rare, and they pose no actual threat to gay men sans making them feel uncomfortable. Whereas lesbians get preyed on, harassed, groped and threatened by straight male cumbrains wanting to sneak into their bedroom after frying their brains with "lesbian" porn. In all honesty the biggest threat gay men are concerned about are homophobes wanting to beat them up for being gay and closeted male bisexuals who treat them as side hoes and fuckholes, not some teenage girls squealing over anime boys.

Even in the case of the fakebois who demand gay dick for muh gender validation never get a foothold and are always dogpiled on for their homophobic bullshit, while AGPs get legitimately violent forcing girldick down lesbians' throats and everyone just has to deal with it. In the artist circles you constantly get female WLW artists pressured into including MTFs in their work while male MLM artists get to laugh at the thought of having to draw pussyboys.

>>677494
It's not like autistic fans don't do this all the time, fujo or not.

I wouldn't go so far as to call it "homophobia," but there's definitely something… uncomfortable about doing that.

No. 677735

>>677726
I've never seen the point of genderbending one character out of a ship (whether its gay or het). The reason to genderbend is normally to explore how the dynamic and designs change between the characters when that aspect is swapped, and to me it feels like switching only one of the genders but not the other changes it 'unequally' in a way to where it's almost a different ship. But maybe that's just my autism, if there's anyone here who likes a ship that has 1/2 genderbent I would be curious to hear why you like it

It doesn't matter how healthy the dynamic is– it's fanfiction. No one is learning morals from fanart and fanfiction. Obviously if someone romanticizes abusive relationships in fiction, they might have some underlying personal issues, but that isn't any of your business anyway. They're teenagers who draw anime characters online, not public figures. They shouldn't be expected to be morally upstanding role models.

I hate to bring this up again, but something weird kinda happened?

When I first read about the drama here, I had never heard of this girl before. So the first thing I did was google her twitter handle step_nie and her Twitter was the first result, which is what tends to happen when you google any twitter handle.

But now when I google step_nie her twitter doesn't come up at all on the results. At first I thought maybe she'd deleted or changed urls due to possible harassment, but I found a link to her twitter in my browsing history and it's active with the same username as before.

It wasn't until I searched "step_nie" with quotation mark so that it only gave me results for that exact phrasing that her username popped up again.

Does Twitter have some sort of setting that you can enable so that your profile doesn't show up in regular searches? Or is google for some bizarre reason censoring her twitter from showing up in its searches?

I know this isn't new milk, but it was just so weird to me I had to ask.

>>677735
I honestly don’t tend to mind either way, but I guess some 1/2 gender bends are just made for the person to self-insert in the ship even more than before.
Some people just really want to see themselves in a ship and they can’t truly get into it when the character they want to project onto has a different gender.
It’s kind of like those bunch of fanfics or fanart saying that one character is trans while the other is still their original gender, the person making it just wants to reflect themselves in that pairing without creating an OC because they know that OC/CanonCharacter pairings are not as popular/well received.

I actually understand the annoyance with this. It does look weird and homophobic to genderbend only one character in a gay ship to make it straight, like you can't accept these two together unless it's God-approven heterosexual and need to fix it.

I agree with both. this is one of the downsides of the internet and being able to mass-share our stuff imo. Like if the genderbender drew her thing and only showed it to her friends, she could explain how it was about self-insert etc whatever and not to be homophobic (since it's probably well-meaning teens anyway). if it happened in this way, it'd prevent other problems like getting hate for ships and the type of fanfic they write. and, it would protect minors from the danger in r18 interactions. In that case it shouldn't be public at all.
but anyway, saying that is moot. things are how they are and I think people have the right to draw their genderbend ship. It definitely comes off homophobic though, and it's kinda good that they face how that looks & affects people.

This is exactly why I like BL to begin with. I hate men, am not attracted to them, so I don't want to read something men don't find attractive or coom all over it it i.e. gay couples created by women for women. I don't want to self insert so I like them to be both fictional anime men that both allow me to detach from my own persona but are unrealistic enough to be not like real men. I think that's the core appeal of BL and the reason why it's so popular.

Tons of things about this video are incredibly irritating. For one, and the most blatant, she's so close to the fucking mic that you can constantly hear the plosives. It's grating as all hell.
Secondly, some of her tips are helpful (I only managed to watch until the hands because dear fucking god the plosives were driving me nuts) but very mediocre – which is what her art is, incredibly mediocre.

Maybe I'm just bitter as all fuck because people like these are what stunted my growth as an artist at an early age (when all you had was How to Draw Manga books and Mark Crilley to go on). I just think this artist should at LEAST tell their audience more about other ways and methods when it comes to drawing things, maybe link some more helpful guides or something.

Maybe I'm a little TOO salty.

Sage because its just a dumb complaint but I miss PetitePasserine's original art and the old little details like the eye sparkles, and unique shading on the hair she did, her new-ish art was technically better but it was starting to lose personality and now her current WoW autistic obsession is boring as fuck, all she draws is this one night elf, and it has been going on for like a year now, imagine drawing just one thing over and over for a year.

Ever heard of class 101 site? The site gives tutorials made by popular insta artists sponsored by the site owner. But although they have interesting classes like pic related, they priced the classes expensively like all of them are priced $100 above. Does it worth?

No. 678524

>>678487
$100 seems to be a fair price considering what artist they've managed to get. If there's someone you particularly like and want to get indepth look into their creation process, it should be worth it, especially since most of the authors would be providing personalized feedback; if you just look for general pointers then you'd probably better off with some more general stuff made by less known creators.

hi, what exactly is the point of these threads? in the op, theres a list of resources and tutorials to improve your art, but the focus of the thread seems to be tearing down artists on instagram/youtube instead of discussing art techniques and improving oneself. are you all gonna relegate yourselves to mediocrity and stagnation, or are you gonna post your work, critique each other, and improve your craft? or are people here too afraid to? i thought the point of these threads was an over all art discussion, not a discussion of gay e celeb drama.

Actual teens are rarely cast in movies and tv shows to play teenagers (besides actual kid shows I guess) not all highschool students are minors, and people will get mad about talking about teenagers in sexual situations when the medium that they're from depicts them in sexual situations.

What's even more pathetic is how much money she ISN'T making. Look at these commission prices, these DeviantArt tier shit. She also said she only makes about 100-200 dollars a month on YouTube even though she haad that viral video, and HOMG 10k a year on her personal business.

NTA but I also felt like it's a weird thing to ask, why don't you check her portfolio and make up your mind yourself?
She paid for the school and obtained the skills, Disney or Dreamworks wouldn't hire her if she wasn't good. Her storyboards are very professional, it's a very specific thing to do though, not a type of art regular people who don't know anything about production really appreciate. Her gesture drawings and coloring skills are good too, character designs a bit forgettable. If she was humble she could have a successful studio career, not really seeing her as a succesful illustration freelancer / youtube artist but who knows honestly.

I've been thinking about buying one of their artbooks (I'm a huge sucker for artbooks so I'm always on the watch) but since Loish is a big artist and I've been following these threads for a while and seeing how some huge artists are secretly assholes, I'm afraid that they're secretly a scummy person that I might not want to give my money to.

Tracing is a legit method of learning, but I'd just be wary of what you're tracing. Avoid the DeviantArt-tier anime posed bases and random shit from Pinterest cause you can pick up bad habits from amateur artists. Stick to photo references or masterworks.

Call me crazy, but this is always so odd to me. This person makes these posts as an "art grandpa", to just socialize and talk to artists in this group. And that I find kinda sweet. It wouldn't be so weird if it was an actual cute, art-loving old man. Except…. it's a 20-something year old fakeboi who took on this creepy 1930 Grandpa persona. She calls everyone her "grandbaby" and while she does draw, it's rarely. She usually gets people to draw her "ideal self" as this old man. Idk I mean the posts are actually nice, and she's not bothering anyone negatively (as far as I know) but the whole persona and concept in retrospect is kinda creepy since her profile makes it clear she seems to really believe she is an art grandpa 1930s goon.
Maybe I'm just being paranoid, and I'm sure she's harmless, but it still weirds me out.

Skip to 21:00 minutes, she is almost directly responding to Lolcow comments about her Trello commission queue. I’m really suprised and dissapointed in her that she didn’t just say “that thing is totally outdated so what’s on there isn’t accurate” but instead she said “not every commission I do is on there” like okay, so some of those people really have been waiting for over a year.

what people watch studio vlogs for advice? if viewers want specific advice, they should look for it themselves. this trend of escapism and parasocial aspects of vlogs didn't begin with art ones specifically, and many artists purposefully seek out this kind of content for when they're working or they find it relaxing.

Yeah agreed anon, that’s what I was talking about in the green text here >>679658
Its more common in “entrepreneurship” influencers than art influencers though. I would say that art you tubers are aware of that and are all taking a different approach to the idea of people wanting to watch them to have their lives, when in reality they know it’s an impossibility.
Baylee Jae’s is >I’m not going to encourage you to become an art YouTuber but you can watch me do it and live vicariously through me
Twisted disaster and holly brown both are like >i will give you genuine tips on how to draw sometimes, and maybe even sprinkle in a few other tips about things like laser engraving and stuff. Just know that this job is genuinely not what it’s cracked up to be and it’s a mental health nightmare at times

I actually have to give those two credit for that, especially Holly Brown because she seems genuinely pretty nice sometimes about sharing her money making ideas

This new couple Honey and Absinthe are the worst, they’re life is extremely fake and the guy is obviously manipulating the audience to watch them and act like they’re buying into money making advice, when in reality they’re not giving any valuable information away, and aren’t even making it as art influencers themselves.

There are other artists like Dan Ekis and LucidPill who are very kind and very encouraging, and are chock full of info. I don’t think that everyone can be an artist but those guys you can tell really believe it or at least want to be encouraging. They’re not manipulative.

No they aren't selling anything t's literally free? And if they are linking to a patreon or kofi they are proviging goods in exchange for money, and unelss they are providing shit or re negging on agreements there's literally no problem with that. ALso selling escapism is not a new thing, and plenty of people use media for that. Even if it's not possible unless they are actually scamming people then there is literally no harm.

In general I think a lot of people who talk about the lack of genuineness forget that this is their job, it's work. Sure they may love their work but it's still work, and that will always be a part of their content. If they have to make a certain type of content or market themselves a certain type of way then that's what they have to do in order to to well and not just scrape by.

Honestly I don't care if people trace background objects when the focus is on something you draw freehand. It saves a ton of time when you're on a tight schedule because complex objects are annoying to work through. It's still better to study objects rather than just tracing because if you don't understand the structure everyone can see it's traced, but I understand the sentiment. Complex items with a ton of detail like guns are really annoying to spend time on when it's not the main subject.

I understand anons saying objects get traced to save time, but when you do stylized artwork you have the advantage of simplifying things a bit, so difficult object don't have to be overrealistic. When I have to draw a gun or a car I pick different reference images, divide the object in shapes and do some perspective studies, and it's an add on my visual library. If you plan to do art for all your life you're gonna run into drawing guns or cars more than once. You can always tell the difference between an object drawn by trace, and one drawn by reference.
There's also quite a difference between tracing from a photo you don't own, and tracing from a photo you made or 3d object you built.

So at around the 22:00 mark, Twisted / Michie goes into her situation with commissions and the huge backlog she has with them.

She feels bad for not being able to finish her long massive backlog of commissions that she still owes but the irritating thing is that she put herself there because she kept taking emergency commissions that just piled on and on to her queue doubling the load. At the 23:29 mark she says that while she knows she shouldn't have taken more commissions when she already had a big backlog, she goes on about how she was running into things like computer issues and whatnot and just had to (but then not get to them…).

At the 26:00 mark is when she goes into why she feels she shouldn't have to get a retail job that pays below minimum wage saying she makes more doing her art than she would a minimum wagr job. The jobs that she's trained and "certified" in are not hiring (what certs? Didn't she drop out of college?).

So I was curious and checked her Patreon and she makes around $515 per month and it did put a little bit more in perspective. Min. wage in California is $12/hr so sure, a part time job making that much would pay slightly below what she's making now on her Patreon but the issue is that even with that $500+ she makes on Patreon, she is still having financial issues. I mean she has to be if she feels she needs to keep having Emergency commissions. That extra $240-$300 she could get from a part time job would help but eh what do I know?

One thing is for sure though, if she really wants to stick with the art being her sole income if she's that unwilling to do regular retail, she needs to get through that Commission queue otherwise she'll probably go on an Artist Beware site which would definitely hurt her in the long run.

I’m super late, but this is so stupid.
This design doesn’t “belong” to either of them. It’s just a generic latte art design. If you Google, “heart latte art”, this design can be seen dozens of times. If you Google, “tulip latte art”, you get even more.
It’s literally the first image you get for latte art on the Wikipedia page for latte art.

You can argue that Clammy copied the concept of a heart latte art beret, but that’s a stupid thing to get upset at her for. In the context of making products, there is nothing wrong with "copying" (unless the original is copywritten). Many products are “copied" from another (how many black lab T-shirts can you find?). There’s nothing wrong with making an alternative product for consumers to buy that comes from the same idea as the original. By this logic, it is bad that there are any laptops that are not Osborne 1‘s, and the only cellphones that should exist are Motorola’s, because they were the first ones to invent the concept of a laptop and a cellphone.

If your product is superior, consumers will buy yours and not the “copied" or “knock off" version. It’s called competition. Welcome to the free market.

All I know about is when she used to be SHOCHIX, She got called out by two other artists who was trying to run away with their money because they paid her when she put out "emergency" commissions only to NEVER do the promised art and also , AGAIN, go and sub to FFXIV

> (Seriously, do artists these days really think it's not good to use references when drawing? This is new to me)

Yes they do, it's very common to think a good artist should remember anatomy, light and shadow by memory and using references is cheating or copying. It doesn't help that every month twitter calls out someone for using pictures as reference or tracing over a background or object.

No. 682118

Well tbf tracing is totally different from copying and referencing and cannot even compare. Sure we could argue that tracing bg or objects is no big deal but why even draw if you don’t bother to draw your own shit? Even worse is that a lot of times people who trace, trace over works that belongs to someone, photos have copyrights too yanno.

I do think that people shitting on referencing is bad but let’s not pretend that tracing isn’t just a lazy crutch used mostly by unskilled artist to benefit from someone else work.

You sound like someone who either 1) isn't an artist or 2) is one of those stuck up artists who think that you have to be able to draw everything in this world through memory and skill alone.

You can trace as long as you're also able to draw from memory + you're tracing from a photo or 3D reference that's yours (or at least you have the original author's permission and you're crediting them).

I’m neither, sure if you own the photo/model or like stated have permission then go right ahead, my issue is with people using other people’s content to replace actual skill. You can trace to save time but a lot of people who trace cannot draw the things they trace, thus is becomes a lazy shortcut over learning to do it yourself. Drawing anything usually comes down to rather simple shapes when you break it down, so I see no reason to learn at least that much.

Every time tracing is mentioned someone needs to sperg about it. I guess a lot of anons here like to trace.
Referencing is always fine and recommended, tracing just shows how lazy and unskilled you are. Professionals may save time with backgrounds by tracing over 3D models or heavily referencing a picture, and honestly I think that's fine as long as the thing you trace isn't the focus of what you're doing. So for example it's fine for concept artists to photobash because their focus is on the concept and not on how things are actually drawn, same with some comic artists using a 3D background for many panels, because the focus there is more about storytelling than details and pretty art. But if you're an illustrator who draws portraits of characters and you trace poses and entire objects in focus like in >>680989, you're a little lazy. It only takes a couple of quick studies to get a decent grasp of things like cars and guns.

This! I'm the original anon who shat on tracing but honestly you put my thoughts better into words than I could've. Obviously as someone planning a comic, I use photobashing to create concepts and am learning 3d to build backgrounds more efficiently, so I got nothing against either of those. If you got photos that belong to you or you got permission to use, then use ahead, that's material after all so why wouldn't you make use of it but to act as if tracing a gun or a car because you're too lazy to draw anything else than your kawaii animu girls is anywhere near the same level as professionals using shortcuts to be time efficient, is fucking astonishing. when I said that I don't understand why people even draw if they don't bother to draw their own stuff, I was spesifically referring to the gungirl type of tracing, not something like photobashing that's obviously it's own artform.

Some of the anons seemed to get really defensive about the whole thing too acting as if it's somehow impossible for artist to actually learn how to draw variety of things. No one is asking you to be a master but holy hell if you get so offended by a suggestion that you should perhaps actually learn to draw stuff outside of your comfort zone, then I'm not sure if being an artist is a right path to take.

Because it‘s too uncanny IMHO. Think of Waffles. She rendered teeth for a while and it clashed with her comic style. Her characters looked like as if they had horse teeth. Even in realistic portraits it‘s not easy to draw teeth in a way that they are visibly there but aren‘t too prominent either. (At least that‘s what I struggle with.) On top of that the proportions of the OP image are all over the place and visible teeth is the last thing this piece needs.

I took 3yrs off of doing it and my stuff wasn't the most fantastic shit to begin with but it was decent. Toxic relationship where nothing I did was good enough kind of killed any art inspo/drive I had. Trying to get back into it after so long is frustrating because I can't seem to keep any of the stuff I'm relarning in my head; it just sort of dribbles out.

I have to use references a ton and my art is so stiff now. Its like this fucking dude took my art ability along with other shit. I have a new boyfriend now and he really encourages it and I have lots of people who are all for me painting and drawing again but anytime I pick up a pencil or my drawing tablet pen it just goes wrong and then it feels like my brain is leaking out my ears since I can't remember any of the stuff I learned.

think of drawing as of any other skill; in any category pros are people who do it every day. You can feel rusty even if you only take as much as one week of a break, so imagine what 3 years can do. Like other anon said, don't expect too much from yourself right off the bat, be patient, do a lot of simple warm up exercises, start simple and build up difficulty as you go; getting back to anything is hard because of your own expectations but once you understand how it actually works and give yourself time you can definitely do it. Look into gesture drawing, warmups like in drawabox first lesson, master studies, it should help you get where you want to get faster.

Art is still a category, you can still find it in search. It's just on the main homepage of twitch you'll have a portal of 4 over arching sections. This has no correlation discovery at all.

What people should be fighting for is better optimization of twitch's featured section on the front page. Many streamers careers get started by fickle algorithm, similar to youtube's recommended.

inclined to agree in this instance, it looks almost like a 1:1 of the original.

>>685589
Ideas aren't protected however, there is something suspect, lazy, etc. if it looks like a 1:1 of the original like this picture. Yeah, a girl with a backpack isn't an original idea but it still has the same leg coming out, the same colors, the same pieces, etc. Literally, everything is just about a 1:1 copy of it.

This is imo kinda like the whole demon girl ordeal right here, this concept isn’t that original and while it may be influenced , the girls’ style, pose, color etc are all very different. There’s a saying that a good artist knows how to steal from others, not in literal sense of course but, skills, ideas and tricks and make it their own. I also feel the same towards the bg concepts, at most those were inspired but they clearly could stand on their own as well. I do feel for having your art actually stolen and sold but then reeing about you genetic idea being stolen too just goes overboard into loonie territory. Artist often forget that even with a following, they’re still one in a million, not everyone has ever even heard of you.

I’ve seen a lot of people make this claim and I’m unsure about it. Are people saying this because of the black hair? The gayness? That she’s a chunker? Tamaki isn’t that fat nor does she share much facial similarity with the character.

Also, Tamaki’s work in general centers around identity and LGBT themes, which appear to be what this book is about, too— so if you consider that self-insert than that’s pretty much every writer that creates stories close to their heart, no?

For me, I'm saying it because she looks more like the author than the daughter of starfire. Even with the dyed black hair.

It feels like this was meant to be its own original universe but got Starfire slapped onto it for some reason. Even reading the synopsis, even though the author may be good for her own stories, this DC one just seems off considering who Starfire is as a character and the fact her daughter goes against her because ??? reasons. She's a social outcast yet everyone knows her and her romance/crush on Claire seems like every "social outcast x hot popular guy" story ever. The ending of the synopsis that I read states that it is a mother-daughter story yet Starfire was barely described in any point beyond that other than "famous, bubbly, and scantily clad" as if it is awful. plus, the synopsis doesn't talk about Mandy's feelings or why she wants to rebel so much against her mother. and the stories of rebellious kids with good parents rebelling because ??? reasons is a little stale.

If it wasn't tied to DC I think this could be a very good story but from what I've seen and read so far, I am just not excited. From what I know, even people who are fans of her writing are expressing disinterest and criticism towards this one. If someone picks up this novel, it is going to be because Starfire is on the cover and maybe disappointed if she is poorly written for the sake of plot.

tldr: This feels haphazardly written by an otherwise good author.

I've been a hobbyist for years wanting to get more serious about practicing digital art. Main issue is that I've been unsure what to focus on (should I be spending all my time on gesture and focus on different elements one by one or should I be splitting my time between gesture, rendering etc.) and when I can transition to working on more polished works for upload (especially since I know several ppl who almost definitely didn't spend long on fundies yet upload rendered shit left and right to moderate success).

I want to draw in a style similar to >>686747 but many of the resources I've found focus more on realistic drawing over animoo art. I'm well aware of the importance of drawing from life but I'm also interested in how proportions change when stylising.

sorry for the newfaggy post but I haven't really found much online that deals w/ my specific questions

No. 687424

>>687404
Do studies of artists whose style you admire in between studying fundies, if your focus is anime stylization obviously focus on drawing people from life, anatomy, etc. and then compare it to how you might stylize it to be more anime. If you do enough studies of what style you like compared to real stuff you should notice the changes they make to fit that style. In terms of what you should focus on, that’s up to you and what you want to draw. Realistically, you probably won’t ever master fundamentals to the point where you’re totally satisfied with your progress in them, and you’ll have to continually revisit them to refresh your skills or examine them with a new eye in terms of what you want to achieve with your art.

yeah, no. this is shannon doing what shannon does best and making a scene out of herself. she's dropping in popularity, so she goes and gets some other creator to make a video on her so she can be the center of attention. i dont like peaches, either, but i never got the impression she was some raging cunt, unlike shannon who radiates that type of persona. like, this is the age of callout culture, everyone and their brother gets called out for literally nothing, so why did some of the stories from others take so long to come out? but once shannon starts to make a scene, SUDDENLY all these other creators have similar stories?

also, most of these stories sound like petty, personal bullshit. none of them have anything to do with peaches as a creator or professional, so the fact they are dragging skeletons out of the closet to try and cancel someone's career, when the career itself is unrelated, seems shitty to me. its like when celebrities come out and be like 'my husband cheated on me'- so? thats your messy drama, deal with it in private like a decent human being and stop making a sloppy mess of yourself.

If I remember right, he didn't feel like drawing what procreate asked and did his own thing ignoring their demands, then tried to blame the app when they wanted to call off the commission, despite the fact that he had already finished it, even though they had tried to call the commission off the midway but he just didn't read his emails. Procreate was even generous enough the pay was it half or full price for a compensation, don't remember witch. He then tried to call them out and say they scammed him, despite everything being totally his fault.

In his 'apology' he doesn't openly say he raped someone but he comes reaaaally close. He admits he pressured women into sex and tried to get them drunk on purpose so I think it's quite fair to assume he did rape people and he's just trying to downplay it.

I'd be surprised if I ever saw someone openly admit they raped someone.

Reposting because I'm retarded.
Do you guys know of any digital art programs that have decent watercolor brushes? I'm attempting to make some on my own in Firealpaca, but I'm struggling to get a texture that works for me. I wish that quality paper wasn't so expensive, or else I would play with the medium a lot more often. I'm such a sperg that when I have high quality and expensive paper products, I'm afraid to use them for fear that a project won't be good enough to warrant it.

Nothing particularly funny really. I think the response to it has been a bit overblown and there hasn't been much trolling to be honest, just the odd person saying weird or dumb shit. I feel bad for the mods really.

Ah I see. So it's just a case of people overhyping the drama, which is honestly understandable considering it's coming from an art commentator. For some reason it seems like they want to find any bit of friction they could whine about in their videos.

I didn't watch Clone High until I was 27, had not idea about the show until I saw it on some top 10 list. But you're right though, it seems like a lot of the people who are into it right now are teenagers and middle schoolers. I'm curious why this is lol

No. 690062

>>688131
I agree with you anon. Creepshow is just a desperate "How do you do fellow kids" type of person who is wasting her time getting involved in petty high school drama. I watched a few more of those videos on Peaches by some of the other creators and they all seem like they're in their late teens, early 20s and I just chalked it up to "Young'un drama" which needs to be resolved between them but with an older mindset, it really is just a bunch of petty nonsense which is why it makes it all the more pathetic about how Creepshow is throwing herself into the pointless drama.

Maybe she should actually practice and work on her own art, it would serve her time better.

And no, I'm not a Peaches fan neither, She rubs me the wrong way and comes off as a Know-it-all. But she's also young so I'm sure she may grow from this and mature.

>>688792

It really sucks because I do like listening to these kinds of videos for background noise but you're right that most seem to leave a lot to be desired. Twisted Disaster is the only one I sorta tune into because at the very least, she's not really a drama commentary channel and her main problem is her lack of self-awareness and her art style is very jarring but aside from that, I can't help but sometimes have her videos play as background noise.

>>688809

I think a reason for this is because a lot of these newer drama videos are being made by late teens/early 20s aged people and well… You know how it can be during that time of your life though I feel like it's amplified even more because we're living in the era of social media and Twitter which is a breeding ground for drama to ensue.

Eugh thank you anon. I thought it was just me who thought her makeup was just terrible. I can appreciate intentionally ugly makeup but with her, it just feels like she only does it for attention just for the sake of it and at least to me, that just doesn't make it work if it's coming from a place like that.

I agree that her content isn't really that engaging. Not sure why but it just feels so generic. Maybe it's the tone of her voice or something or her structure but something does feel off. I'm not sure what to suggest that could help improve her content.

In the next thread can OP ban the topic of "does X overcharge for commissions?"

It's boring, we have the debate every time a new user finds this site. Commissions aren't a necessity, nobody is holding a gun to people's heads demanding they commission a basic af bust portrait of their OC. High prices help artists to limit the pool of how many commissions they have to do, dirt low prices hurt all artists and make it so that only artists living in poor countries are getting worthwhile wages. This is not milk.

My pet peeve is seeing artists self promote unwarranted on rando tweets. I wish I had a screenshot but a week or so ago I saw a tweet that was of pic rel and said something along the lines of "who even likes this lifeless art style it's so ugly" and a bunch of artists replied with their own art like "I actually put soo much work into my art unlike these soulless animators" and on top of that the art was always just… not good. There is nothing wrong with posting your art on self-promote threads or even on tweets that are like "I love artists who draw X characters so much uwu" which kind of invite you to self promote but just doing it on any vaguely art related tweet makes you look cringe, especially when it's just a way of shitting on other artists.

An update on the HP situation. Peaches has now posted a 50 minute-long video defending herself against the criticism she's getting

I don't feel like watching a 50 minute video right now but I may get to it later. Did you personally think the video was good? Is it worth watching or is it just a bunch of word salad in video form?

> It's because of JFK and how many zoomers are horny for him


Yeah I've seen a few fan videos of this character popping up on YouTube and I still don't get it. Why is JFK so popular when he's just the usual dumb, sex-driven jock stereotype like most other characters who fall into that trope? I also took notice of the shipping people, mostly shipping Joan and Cleopatra and I just like… Okay? lol.

I do get that and it makes it easier to understand why so much animation is simplified but still, there have been plenty of appealing looking show that used a simpler style but still managed to look pleasing to the eye and not make you puke like Futurama, Daria, Samurai Jack, etc. I suppose you can't really dunk too hard on Big Mouth since it seems they're going for that Klasky Csupo approach but still I personally can't look past the animation of Big Mouth haha.

I mean, the drama itself is trash. It’s literally a she said, he said. The fact that someone is being canceled for claiming that someone yelled at them, and another person saying that it was a lie, it’s pretty weird ngl (especially since they’re both known to lie/exaggerate). It just shows how petty they all are, it’s just middle school drama .

This is literally the most boring who cares milk. Like these people are desperate, they’re all reaching. Clearly they were all too geeky to have friends to vent and shit talk in high school so now they’ve got to live it out in front of thousands of people on YouTube

Honestly the “drama” is kinda disgusting because Shannon/whoever the fuck started this, are using followers to hurt the others reputation
