I thought it was kinda cringe at some part but it was mostly just boring. The Among Us part was dumb and pointless, just a complete non sequitur that had felt completely out of place. If it had been to segue into Among Us fan art then at least it would have made sense. The ending was awkward too. It just kinda stopped then went straight into outtakes lol the entire thing felt sloppy. I think she was aiming for something like ZHC's 2018 Artist Rewind but her production value is always terrible. If someone more skilled been in charge of putting it together then it actually could have been a neat little video.

She has this persona called SaltECrafter who usually pulls that stupid face. She also calls her fans (salt) grains, and it's a running gag that she and her fans breath salt or smth. Salt is her theme that's why she has the salt shaker as logo. (Better than her Pokemon ripoff merch.)

I don't really think Kaneblob is a hardcore tracer (although that case with rei_17 was true tracing or photobashing) BUT Kaneblob does some heavy referencing for sure, to the point some of the pictures looks uncomfortably close to the original.

Alphonzo is an IRL teacher and has years of experience with art. Other than some minor drama around alleged plagiarism earlier this year, he's relatively lowkey. Minnie is skilled as well, but she's younger and more appealing to the minimalist art hoe crowd. Genuine and professional-level skill intimidates kids and beginners, so they flock to those who either have 'fun' personalities or approachable art.

A lot of, if not most, good black artists on YT tend to be industry professionals or at least skew towards an older audience. It's probably because black artists can't exactly gain a big audience on annoying personalities or their appearance alone. Not in the same way a white woman could.

I'm pretty much sure those who calling out Kaneblob for tracing are either jealous of her popularity who want to cancel her.

I see some similiarities in the BNA promo artwork she did with Rei17's art. While other artworks, i dont see many similarities unless the gwendolyn from odin sphere as well as princess mononoke and Haku from spirited away do look like an overused composition/concept.

ah yes, i bet everyone is SO jealous of the fact that kaneblob traces or at the very least heavily copies concepts and compositions to the point pixiv actually removed her piece from the collab it was doing with studio trigger after it was outed as a copy of rei17's work and some of the japanese artists she "heavily referenced" actually stated their discomfort in the pieces' similarities.

Don't be daft. They may not be from earth but it's not like they're from some sort of alien fairy race. They're obviously supposed to correspond with human racial phenotypes and the creators have verified that certain characters are of non-white races. Musa is east asian, Aisha is black and Flora is latina.

Instagram artists have a huge victim complex, the never STFU about " the algorithm "and now that Instagram is gonna test disabling story shares for posts they're seething and pissing all over themselves because their only audience is from S4S and shares in general and can't take the idea of building genuine audience without having to beg for shares and likes on everything, they legit always say "Instagram is not a place for artists" or "Instagram is against artists" IDK what's stopping them from going to any other actual art platform other than them knowing they can't get as much followers and interaction as what they already have.

Yeah they are meant to look like humans, but latin people aren't the only ones with tan skin, and african people aren't the only ones with dark skin. They aren't human and can't correspond to the human ideas surrounding race because race is something arbitrary that we made up. There are so many ethnic groups with overlapping phenotypes, and someone from africa may have more genetically in common with someone from europe than with another african person.

Race in this situation is ambiguous, since there are a shit ton of ethnic groups that can look like flora. If you want to cast a woman of color is doesnt even really matter whether she's half black or latina, as long as she just looks like the character.

I never understood why artists are "supposed" to use instagram. I know it's all images but that's it. they aren't full size, they have to fit in the screen. You can't enlarge them afaik and since it's mainly for mobile they're smaller. I liked the days of tumblr where you could full view images, see every detail as it should be.

There really isn't a good platform for amateur artists atm. Artstation is for professionals, dA is full of weird ass shit, tumblr became much less popular and the artists went onto twitter and IG; twitter sucks if you primarily want to look at pictures and IG has sucky quality and a superficial F4F community.

I've grown a decent following on IG despite tHe AlgOrItHm. Still think that IG culture sucks for artists. It rewards you if you post the same aesthetic stuff daily without any change in your style. Good luck improving when all you draw is portraits of white girls with the same features and some flowers sprinkled on top. But it's still true that a lot of less than mediocre artists think that the only thing standing in their way is the algorithm when they are just not that good.

>>693014
IG hasn't improved anything beyond ads and tools for small businesses and influencers. It's good for quick consumption visuals. IG has its place in the world, but these people fighting for likes and proper shares need to stop and re-evaluate their priorities. I think it's okay for an artist who does quick to make, easy-to-digest artwork, and is just up for the challenge.

I do wonder if the lawsuit against FB, who owns IG, will effect things.

so I was browsing through my regular instagram feed and came across cyarine’s story posts

I don’t really care about repost accounts, but the way she was talking about these accounts having “hundreds and thousands of followers” while she already has a million on ig, making her one of the most followed artists on there, just rubs me the wrong way.

No. 693667

I have to disagree with you lol
they aren’t “hacks” their videos are geared towards non-serious hobbyists
they aren’t the types of yt artists that show you a fine art graphite drawing timelapse, what brushes to use, or how to properly construct a face, because those are too intense for beginners
that’s the problem I have with people looking down upon tiktok artists, because their function is to make art easier for those who only want to use it for fun or personal enjoyment

You see repost accounts as fair game but artists don't have to. I think it's stealing, and no matter how much i don't like someone or how many likes they have - noone should take their work, repost it and make content out of it.

Copycat cyarine has a point here though, there are so many Instagram profiles that just repost artwork by others without their permission, often without even giving credit and sometimes they just take the artwork from other similar pages so the artwork becomes completely orphaned. These accounts aren't sharing creations by artists they love, they're content mills using art to grow their platform big enough until they can profit by selling promos and feature ads.
Just search any kind of adjective and "art", there are thousands of these pages.
It's true that the same thing used to happen on Tumblr, but I'm those cases there wasn't money being made through it and Tumblr had a culture that was more supportive of giving credit to artists.

At this point idk how “indie” this whole thing really is. It def isn’t bigger than Disney or Warner Bros, but for an “indie” project it’s pretty big.

Where did they get the money/how were they able to promote themselves at large for a 4 episode small “indie”?

No. 693759

>>693754
Could be because of connections/networking, maybe? Vivziepop is pretty big, established animator with widely popular projects (such as the Die Young video) plus her Hazbin Hotel not only exploded in popularity whether you like it or hate it, but a studio even decided to pick it up. I'd say that at this point she must have some good connections in the animation industry after all of that. Good enough for her projects to receive a decent push like what's happening with Helluva Boss.

But yeah, Vivziepop's projects are slowly leaving the "indie" bracket for sure.

No. 693778

>>693754
Oh right. Yeah I suppose you're right that it's not really an indie project anymore since they have so much financial backing enough to hire big named actors and singers with established contracts. So fair point is. I'm sure that there is some flaws in the animation but it was serviceable enough to not be much of an issue, at least not for a casual viewer.

It's just for me personally the tone is just… Not my taste which is weird for me to say because as I mentioned in my other comment, I usually can appreciate some edgy-ish tone in cartoons but it just comes off a bit tryhard with Helluva Boss.

Honestly. If you take out the “”shock humor””, it could be a kidshow- at least that’s how it comes off to me. It’s like it wants to be the next Rick and Morty but falls flat hard and ends up being all very amateur with it’s “good father” cheating on mother, can’t even explain to the daughter that he doesn’t even love her mom and get a divorce because ItS sO DeEP. All in all, just not my taste

about helluva boss' tone i think it's the same issue with hazbin hotel's tone. both want to follow the 'looks like a kids cartoon but WOAH this is really adult and deep!' formula, but the writing kinda sucks so it ends up feeling forced with excessive empty edgyness.

Same anon who you responded to. Yeah exactly. IF the shock humor was more toned down or removed, I could appreciate it more and it could definitely pass as a kid show though I'm okay with adult animation as well, I just hate things that try to be in your face with it's shock factor, it comes off as childish and appeals to the lowest common audience and if you enjoy it, that's fine. I wish I could share in the love for it but I just can't, at least not yet anyway.

>>693835
Yeah same though I'll be honest that I gave Hazbin a pass because it was the first I watched of Vivziepop's. Still felt forced but I was able to kinda push it aside but then we got Helluva Boss and it's following the same tone shtick that Hazbin had and it's just obnoxious. And it's not like Vivzie isn't capable of balancing things, her Unlucky Jacky short was actually pretty balanced I thought and it'd be cool if she could do that with Hazbin Hotel and Helluva Boss.

I asked this in the last thread and from what I saw, it's mostly for 2 reasons. 1 because people are drooling over the character JFK for some weird reason and 2, because it's apparently getting a reboot and the news spread like wildfire with these obsessive kind of fans.

I loved this more than the pilot and the first episode, and I think the characters in Helluva Boss feel more fleshed out than the ones in Hazbin.

Or maybe I just like the owl design (which isn't completely red or pink), the voice actors and the animation in some parts.

Stumbled across this person's account today and saw this rant. I could sympathize if it weren't for the fact that she's comparing herself to an artist way above her skill level, and the reason why she hasn't blown up as much as that artist despite drawing the same things is because her art sucks, that's all there is to it. In fact, she has 8k followers and that's already WAY more than I would expect for the mediocre stuff she puts out.

I can kind of understand the argument. If a black artist draws art depicting black people, they are often ignored and neglected. But when a nonblack artist draws black people, they are praised for being amazing allies and "brave" for diversifying their art. It's frustrating for many because nonblack artist are profiting off black bodies while not enduring any significant racism or barriers in the art world. The hurt is real.

But in the context of alterego, their art is just plain ugly. So, it is no surprise lovelyrosebun has garnered a following.

Well yeah, then she's in the wrong. I could understand if for some reason she didn't want to share her race, but it doesn't take much to correct people and just be like "Thank you for the support, but I'm not black". She was probably trying to ride off of the movement of supporting black creators, considering this apparently started after BLM this year. I know it's bad to assume but, the truth is is that it's mostly black artists who draw a majority of black characters. It's pretty fair to assume that someone drawing mostly black people is black, and that applies to other races. Artists tend to draw people that they identify with. Some anons may write it off as just some retarded twitter thing, but it is genuinely weird if she didn't correct anyone knowing people thought she was black.

No. 695128

>>695083
If she corrected someone then she would have been called out anyway, just earlier. Maybe her intentions weren't even bad, who knows. It could be that she's exploited the BLM movement just for clout or the BLM movement made her realize that she didn't draw black people before and so she began doing that. Then she sells the prints because honestly they're her drawings, they're not disrespectful and she just can.

Anyway the answer is to just draw white people if you're white, because someone is always going to find some retarded reason to cancel you otherwise.

No. 695134

>>695128
Anon, I hate to say this but, if she clarified whatever her race is before then no one would have called her out. Her art is cute and no one has an issue with artists drawing in-offensive black characters. Look at imawonder for example. She's a pretty big ig/youtube artist right now, and I've yet to see her being called out when drawing black characters. You can draw anyone of any color, but like I said, if you draw mostly characters of one race, then people will assume you are of that race. Either way, whether or not she had bad intentions, If she knew people thought she was black then it's weird to not clear that up.

No. 695160

Yes, she would have. Maybe not on ig or youtube, but on twitter for sure, especially if she started to draw black people around the time the protests were taking place.

Twitter artists are desperate for validation and exposure but without the need of having actual good art skills and the easiest way to get that is through artist hashags where they can go 'I AM POC/NEURODIVERGENT/QUEER/WHATEVER ELSE NOW LOOK AT MY ART AND GIVE ME LIKES OR YOU'RE EVIL'.

I get that every artist can charge whatever they want, but I really don't understand why other people get so defensive over it? Sometimes things are really expensive for something really simple or basic, or even really bad/rushed or sloppy work.

"Artists need to pay rent too!!11!". Ok so get another job like everyone else, until you have the audience or skill to be able to support yourself fulltime. I see so many artists quit their jobs to be freelancers and then bitch about not being able to afford rent, and their prices are really high for what they are producing, and then they are suprised that next to no one is buying from them. Arists need to eat and pay bills, that's fine everybody does, but other non artists work two jobs, or have a side hustle in order to make money they don't get from their primary position.

We've had this convo dozens of times of before but what ev I guess.

In my opinion yes artist can charge whatever they want for their work, after all art is a luxury item. If people are willing to pay $1000 for furry porn then that artist's work is worth $1000.

Now I do agree with you that some artist basically price themselves out of making money but that problem may not entirely be attached to the quality of the art itself so much as a small size of said artist's audience.

I know that Sakimichan's artistic decline is far from a new topic and everyone and their mom has noticed her pieces looking duller and lazier by the day, but what baffles me is how some Sakimi-clones look so much better compared to her own art.

One example is Zumidraws. Sure, it's still coomer fap material with questionable anatomy but compared to Sakimichan's art this looks WAY better and more polished. Hell even the anatomy looks less ridiculous. Am I the only one noticing this? Why do people still give a shit about Sakimichan if her clones are starting to pump out art that look superior?

Thought it looked nice(r) for a moment but literally the only thing that makes this look decent is the photobashing that makes the image look more high in detail.

Not that I know of? Even for their artvsartist meme, they use a brown animal crossing character. Which is ironic because two artists (babs and rose) were called out for blackfishing because they used their animal crossing character to present themselves with darker skintone.

Kinda off-topic but what’s the point of doing an art vs artist if you’re not even using a pic of yourself? I get not wanting to show your face but that’s what the meme is for. Guess she just wanted to use the hashtag or something.

People who are actually afraid of oppression would see being white-passing as a good thing, but then you can’t virtue signal or beg for pity on the internet. If she looks white then she’s not afraid of being bullied for being POC, she’s afraid of being bullied for looking white.

To be fair GI has a much cleaner record when it comes to lolicoomer pandering, the few little girl characters are pretty nonsexual (albeit admittedly pandering). FGO on the other hand has multiple, shamelessly sexualized skimpily clad lolis in its character selection. Vtubers seem to be the most popular trend with cumbrains at the moment though, haven't seen much GI or FGO art around. Or maybe I'm just not looking for it.

The art community sucks everywhere, I stopped being part of any community for years and I posted about it before, this year I got back but didn't join any community because all of them are awful, I tried joining some but I never carried through because they're mentally ill teenage girls and 19-23 men groomers, they're so hostile and cowish and they always have some sort of mental illness and sperg about seeing and hearing shit there is always infighting and thinking people copies them, moralfagging, victim complex, and cultish behaviour, it's the same as I remember it except the esthetic is now a little different and everyone is doing nsfw art and begging for shares and likes.

I think what he meant is a critique of how commercial art production is soul sucking, forces people into unreasonable deadlines which hurt art quality and creativity, etc. I think it’s fair, art generally turns out better if you take your time developing it instead of churning anime comissions every two days

Speaking of which, it cracks me up that beavs was criticizing cyberpunk 2077 for its themes and bad quality and the whole crunch thing, considering she bent backwards to excuse naughtydog when it did the exact same. And then replies to that same tweet about capitalism saying its bad for art and how she wishes she could just draw horses.

Pedos and grooming are a real problem in the art community, but I assure you there are groups of people who are good to be around. You just have to search a little and interact with the people that have similar tastes as you and that you like. Twitter and Tumblr tend to be shitty places, but I think that discord and DeviantArt (especially now that a lot of people left) can be nice places to share art and find your little group of people. You're gonna find toxic people everywhere, you just have to ignore and block.

I think what happens is someone realizes they're blocked even though they never directly interacted with the artist and, being the type that has a victim complex, decides to make a fuss over it.

So… Anyone wanna talk about Artbreeder and the impact it could have on the art world? I mean, there’s already been drama about people passing off AI-created art as their own, and the website even has a furry category.

On one hand it scares me that AI could become so advanced that it makes developing art skill pointless, but on the other a lot of the trending portraits are the same face over and over, since the people making them aren’t creative (or maybe just faceblind). Art skill can be faked much more easily than good ideas. We already have tracing and photobashing, after all. Or do you guys think that AI will never be able to replace the trained eye of a human?

I think at a certain point, using ArtBreeder or things like it will be considered creating art the same way collages and photomanips are.
You're basically remixing a bunch of different images/styles, and the idea to mix them and how you go about it would technically be your own.
Obviously, actually creating art would be more valuable and respectable, but companies and individuals more preoccupied with getting things quickly might think differently, depending on what they want.

Meet another asian/black artist who thinks that thanks to her "heritage" she's the perfect mangaka out there.
Some years ago she announced that she's gonna study game design in cologne and that she got a scholarship for it thanks to her talent. And now every year around spring/late autumn she talks about going to interviews for scholarships and that she's gonna start university. Or that she started university, but in Germany you need up to 4 years to finish your degree so it doesn't make any sense to switch university every semester. Unless you keep failing your exams.
Regular suicide baiting, she once had a gofundme to get money for her copics, because every artist needs copics.
She regulary traces popular fanarts and sells them. Fanart of Disney characters, Nintendo and other easy to trace stuff.
And she keeps bragging about having PTSD and anxiety and depression. And that she nearly had Borderline and Schizophrenia. And she loves suicide baiting. Likes going to the ER for stitches and get send home after a few hours.

As long as you aren't constantly reblogging random memes to flood your timeline, it's a good way to link and share your work. The tagging and commenting system have improved a lot.

No. 699530

A lot of blogs actually are well optimized to pop up in search engines based on the content of your individual posts, so you already have the ability to put yourself out there and be searched for, front and center, with the right keywords via Google. You can also use that as your base, and share your blog posts to social media with built in APIs and RSS feeds. This usually increases the relevance of your website. In other words, you can have a popular website without a social media presence, but the social media presence, if done through your website, is a bonus. You make people leave the social media and be immersed in your blog.
Keep in mind, however, that some social media websites are funny about outside URLs because they make money from ad revenue. Twitter is notorious about it, but the rest? Not so much.
If nothing else, look at making a blog more like curating something that's a part of your art vs relying on social media that just frames your art like cheap content. It's not either/or. Do both.

People have been tracing reference stuff forever, long before computers were even a thought. Look up graphic illustration tools, and tools the old masters used.

In the case of backgrounds, a 3D model that you legally obtained for the purpose of saving time, or even one that you built yourself is fine. If you're a hobbyist who enjoys reinventing the wheel over and over or just enjoys making backgrounds from scratch, that's totally fine. The rest of us need to eat, or enjoy the problem solving/drafting process that comes with creating. The 3D stuff is amazing for worldbuilding, especially if you're working on a comic and you want your setting(s) consistent. The effects applied to the models still have to match your style. Learning how to work with shaders takes skill; the computer won't do it for you.

I guess by the same logic, when you draw a straight line with an actual pencil and a real ruler, the ruler is doing the work for you. You're not doing anything at all.

You’re 100% right about this. Before computers, and sometimes even still, illustrators and comic artists would use pre-made perspective grid sheets with a lightbox. It’s not even ancient history, you can still buy these things at craft stores.

To a trained eye, more obvious assets look like garbage, but most readers don’t pay too much attention or simply don’t care. That’s why there are those capeshit floppies that are basically rendered entirely in Poser.

There's a lot of combining 3D and 2D especially in concept art work, since there's just no gain spending additional time making sure given character has exact same body / face proportions on every image - and 3D model base will ensure it does.

A lot of semi-realistic stuff of anime characters looks bad from western artists but I think Rapoza's pretty good at it tbh. Shinji looks just kind of like a rendered Disney character here while keeping his resemblance to his original design, I think it's a pretty good balance or stylization and realistic forms and rendering.

Yeah, and? What’s your point? Are people not allowed to branch out and draw what they please? He doesn’t have to just stick with what made him famous, you realize that right? Besides, he isn’t throwing out hot takes to rile up twitter so I don’t get your beef with him asides from “it looks weird”.

You can try more 'passive streams' of income like setting up a shop, making more generic/cute-sy art that sells well as merch, opening a youtube channel for the ad revenue/sponsors (tho that takes ages).

Thoughts on this artist? Apparently they are a gachatuber that does Gacha versions of the Zodiac Signs personification and cause of that they got 100k subs so far. However, I am not really a big fan of their artstyle and character designs.

The thing that bothers me the most is that they draw slight nsfw and implented r*pe and sexual/physical abuse ect. into the Zodiac signs character backstories while using Gacha club which have mainly children attracted to Gacha videos.

(In one of their community post, they had Capricorn "ROASTING" Aquarius by literally insulting her abusive past, quote "says that one that got kidnapped by a god and used as a sex toy and alchohol slave," and keep in mind most of their fans are under the age of 18 and some of the top comments are thinking that Capricorn is savage. I'm sorry, saying shit like that is not cool it is highkey disrespectful and rude and I'm ashamed that the Gachatuber wrote somebody's trauma as "roasting") Idk their age but if they are like a minor that will be really weird. Hopefully somebody could talk some sense to them or at least make it so their content ism clearly not for kids.

It does sound fucked up, but since you are mentioning that they are apparently a minor maybe they will grow out of this phase by making fucked up things. Their art is certainly not a masterpiece, they do seem like they have potential tho.

just need to vent here a little bit. I was friends with a popular artist for a while (around 5ish years) and he was always much better at drawing than I was, but he had this habit of constantly telling me he'd always be better at drawing than me and he liked to randomly send me my art and "critique" it without asking.

It depends on what you need the money for. If you're trying to reduce college debt or paying for rent/food - get a job. If you just want fun money, it's better to use the free time you have to develop skills for future employment.

This last bit of advice is less applicable to college students, but more for later on. Don't feel like you have to choose between a job and art. Realistically you aren't going to spend 8+ hours a day drawing. Some people can, but most will burn out or injure themselves.

It doesn't look wrinkly though. I pretty sure those lines are just to show the joints. If they weren't there the hand would look flat, like it's not bending at all.

not all drawing styles need to be structured or anatomically sound like you're drawing for animation. look at quentin blake's illustration style. pointing out wonkiness in a face or hand while ignoring the entire feel of an illustration isn't a good critique. these simple styles work because they're appealing. anatomically correct drawings aren't inherently appealing, a wonky face isn't inherently unappealing.

If another art focused platform was made, how do you prevent it from being filled with furry fetish art and other dumb shit? You could have a 'no NSFW art' policy, but then you would likely lose a huge part of the userbase (i.e. tumblr).

You could also have a "professional work only" thing going on but then you would just end up with another ArtStation. Which many feel intimidated by to post on, and are years from reaching the skill level of artists who post there. Plus the entire userbase is made up of other artists, and is not a very social platform.

Instagram would be decent if it didn't bring down the quality of files so drastically.
Follow 4 follow is also annoying af, but how would you even combat that?

I am highly interested in actually launching a site for more amateur artists, but some of these issues seem unavoidable without pissing off most of the userbase through overbearing, stupid policies/algorithms.

Sure, but did you ever need them there? I think instead of a blanket no nsfw, maybe no pornographic imagery might work instead. Also, what's wrong with alienating furries? They have lots of furry-only communities. Let there be one community they can't infest.

I personally don't see the issue with a site being by artists, for artists. If people want to get hired, there's ArtStation. If you want to be seen by the masses, there's social media. There's no where to really just connect with other artists. I miss that 2000s deviantArt community vibe.

I don't think F4F necessarily needs to be combated. On any site, there will be the people who live only for the numbers. Let them be.

afaik it was disrespectful because you were/are not supposed to depict it, especially as nonchalantly as in the form of a doll, a repainted monster high doll at that. Even though wendigo is not a revered god of creation, I think it makes sense if you consider the kind of backlash she would get from orthodox jewish communities if she made a “yahweh” doll. And if you take into account how respectfully native people and their cultures are treated in canada (which objectively isn’t adequate at all,) a serious part of a culture was further disrespected in her depiction.

I think the main difference is that the people who originally genuinely believed in Egyptian gods and dwarves and such are long dead, whereas indigenous cultures are still alive and present in the modern age. And the wendigo specifically is something that, like Mohammed, isn't supposed to be depicted, and means more than a just "a spooky myth" to indigenous people(iirc, that's my canadafag education).

I'd respect someone making a doll out of Mohammed since they're pretty much risking their lives if they do that.

If European people said they didn't want depictions of that specific demon, yeah. Why shouldn't they be respected? I don't get this logic.

In the creator's position, I'd just make content with inspiration from a bunch of different cultures, and not explicitly name the Wendigo.

I think the solution isn’t to outright ban certain groups, but to limit users’ exposure to groups they’re not interested in. One of Deviantart’s huge problems was that fetish art regularly made it to the front page. If you don’t want to ban furries or porn then you’d have to work on the algorithm so that people don’t see shit they don’t want to see.

I personally wouldn’t have a problem with banning furries but I know it would cause a lot of drama, and also debate about what exactly counts as a furry, such as catgirls or cutesy children’s book illustrations of anthropomorphic characters. Banning porn and fetish art might be a better idea. Tumblr’s problem was that it already built a reputation and userbase centered around porn, and then banned porn. And then non-porn posts started getting deleted because they used some shitty algorithm to auto delete stuff.

My bad if your question was already answered in a way, but native/Algonquin people as a collective aren’t making wendigo dolls nor are they selling wendigo merch. >>706031 was exactly right. There is no properly faithful way to depict it because the most respectful thing in this situation was to not depict it at all.

As for general art depictions of entities of significant cultural/religious importance there’s so much Irish folklore that could be focused on. The neverending trend of Greek gods needs to come to a fucking head so Celtic mythology can have a turn.

Have you seen Wolfwalkers anon? I think you'd like it. It has a really good art book too, if you like the style.

And I agree. There's a lot to be inspired by in Celtic mythology. Plus a lot of the Greek mythology inspired stuff only scratches the surface of the mythos, usually without exploring any of the more niche characters and myths which can be interesting as well.

As far as I’ve seen, most people only focus on a WAYYYY watered down version of Hades and Persephone (and I’m not just talking about Lore Olympus). I’d love to see some other Greek myth characters get the spotlight, but also other mythologies too. But maybe people just want to avoid the problem of accidentally pissing off other cultures, since it’s socially acceptable to do whatever you want with Greek gods. There’s also the option of just making up your own myths, but that circles back to original storytelling…

1. Why did she buy two identical sets of R&L flat brushes if she's "not hoarding". They are affordable, ok, but buying identical brushes in bulk generally hints that you expect them to deteriorate soon, yet she praises the quality ("so bomb")? Am I just overanalyzing?
2. She calls 1 inch flat brush "large", but her canvas pannels are A3 at leats. Huh.
3. My personal trigger. Regular cheap mannequins are and always were such a waste of money and recommending them for studies is a terrible advise in a world where internet and photographs of actual human beings exist. How the hell is anyone supposed to practice anatomy with that junk? "You can get them any pose that you want" they can't even raise their arms above shoulder level or, well, sit.
4. I kind of hope that in regular art shops in US one can actually buy a single pencil eraser (though I'd recommend koh-i-noor's over Faber Castell's, they seem softer, more efficient and make less dust) or a set of gelly rolls without those disposable blister packages, it seems a little wasteful.
5. For me 4$ for two charcoal pencils is a ripoff unless you're buying Conte a Paris thick core pencils. Why are they so expensive if they're made in US? Any other item seems somewhat reasonably priced.
6. God bless strathmore it's so hard to get where I live.
7. I dunno, crayola's pencils are ok, but a golden standard for school grade pencils, really? Perhaps it's a thing of accessibility, but Giotto's, Lyra's or Steadtler's products are much better quality-wise.

Phobs is a russian woman. And Sarah (the girl who recently got called out) is from/still lives in latin america if I recall. Usually girls who are comfortable with nazi imaginery without being outright neonazis (like SS, the american girl who costantly drew Hitler in lingerie on dA and admitted of being a neonazi on tumblr a few years later) are not from the western sphere.

No. 709386

it's definitely a trend. Apple just fished a new market to sell a rapidly dying product (smartphones killed tablets almost immediately). People will swear to god it's revolutionary because they invested so much in it already and feel offended if told "you wasted money". It's not as reliable as a tablet. If you want to use it on pc, you have to buy a 3rd party app. If you want to draw on it with a decent program, they're all subscription based. You can't use a pirated copy of adobe programs on it. If you want to transfer your files to pc, it's an headache. And as you said, you're dealing with a company that kills their own products after less than 5 years.
Then again I do both digital and traditional, I don't feel the need to draw digital everywhere.

Yeah semi-professional illustrator here and while I use my iPad for drawing on-the-go it's not the same as a Cintiq (or other screen tablet) and the selection of software you have on PC. I think it's nice to have but many social media artists nowadays act like you NEED an iPad and procreate to do digital art or just art in general. Most people don't get the base model for drawing and an iPad pro plus pencil is going to be more than $1000, you can get a good screen tablet and CSP for much less.

tbh I think the people hating on Wacom and calling their products a scam are just bitter that they cheaped out and bought a knockoff instead. Wacom's products have an insanely long lifespan and I've used all of mine for years with zero problems, their screen tablets are worth every penny. Competitors might have similar hardware but Wacom offers way better manufacturer support, pens and they build their products sturdy enough to last through a nuclear war. I'd say that Wacom is definitely still worth it.

No. 709416

I've always thought so, particularly because it's not simply the input device, so it's impossible to upgrade. A traditional tablet can be plugged into any computer, and shouldn't really break unless you abuse it. I know people with absolutely ancient wacoms that still work just fine. Meanwhile even if you take the best possible care of an ipad it will eventually become obsolete. There are also more parts to stress/wear down, and on top of that as you said, the whole planned obsolescence thing.

All of the criticisms in this thread are valid, though I will say I enjoy using my iPad as a professional creator. I’ve had it since 2018 or so, and it’s helped me make several moderately-sized projects both in my studio and on the go. I am also fond of the Procreate app, I think the simplicity of it makes for a good digital sketchbook which is to say you can just open it up and start scribbling away without having to fuss too much with interface. If you’re on a budget or don’t need the portability, I think you could get a different screen tablet for your computer. Huion, XPPEN, Ugee, etc have sales kind of often and you can get a decent Cintiq if you’re good at eBay hunting.

>>709461
The 13 inch is fine, though it feels a bit cramped if you’re used to drawing on paper. Maybe a 16 inch would be a good place to start, and if you find the glass screen too slippery you can always invest in a matte protector.

It's the price that got me. Wacom MobileStudio Pro 13" costs around 2,7k EUR while I got the iPad 2018 11" for 850 EUR last summer.

Well, that's bad luck. But I agree with you that their reparation fees can be insanely high – which every other tech company also does. I usually always have a protector on my phone but the one time I took it off, it fell and the LCD screen broke. Buying a new screen was around 300 EUR, so I decided to wait a few months for the newest iteration and just get a new phone instead.
No tech is made to work for decades nowadays. Even old school landline phones break at some point. It's just up to everyone what they need and which money they have. The only rule of thumb is that whenever something sounds too good for its price or the price sounds too high for what it does, it usually is. Just get the best you can afford and get the ball rolling. There's always time to upgrade or change tech.

You don't really need to seal it unless you want it to last for a decade, you could just put a layer of pva over the top instead of anything expensive
If you use acrylic just make sure you water them down or buy thin body, acrylic can dry thick and bumpy which means when it comes to repainting it all white you will have to sand it all down to make it smooth enough to get your deposit back. Also do not use anything water soluable like poster paint or anything oily/waxy.
Wall paint is always going to be better with high opacity coverage and self levels better. It's water soluble enough to clean up from carpets but not so much it can't be painted over or run down the walls, wall paint exists because they designed the perfect paint to go on walls

It's not so interesting but this girl got 1.5 followers first time she posted and it turned out she was stealing. Original creator told her to delate it, and she did, but i think they went too easy on her because (not even) week later she started posting not her art again.
Was told off and started crying that she want 300 followers again. Probably mentally unstable. She's changing her username constantly. Now she posted her real art (I think) and twitter totally forgot about all that shit she did.

I think the main problem is pages/information from manga are being leaked before they’re officially released, publishers have been getting stricter about that. The artist may have posted something that contradicts the contract they have with the publisher. Like how a lot of animators like making fanart for the anime they work on but they tend to delete their posts or use separate accounts for that art,

Fanart is generally not targeted in the east (I know some old school NGE hentai artist was contacted recently but the studio that messaged him apologized for it) but I wouldn’t be surprised if western artists get C&Ds since they’re far more into producing fanart for money

I don’t post my art online (yet) and pretty much draw for myself, and every few years I end up completely changing my art style. Despite what social media wants, I think it’s good to experiment before deciding on something to stick to. I guess it’s more of a problem if you’re after followers, though.

As for references, I’ll use them for studies but not if I’m casually sketching, unless there’s something specific I want to include that I don’t have a lot of practice with. Industry artists use references all the time, so it’s not a bad thing, but of course you should be able to draw somewhat decently without one too. A reference can take your work to another level but you shouldn’t be over-reliant on them (at least, in my opinion).

The best way is to get an oil painter to teach you IRL.

Just from a safety standpoint, you have to learn how not to poison yourself with solvents or set your home on fire with your paint rags, and get fully dedicated, a well-ventilated studio that's not your bedroom/kitchen/living space to paint in. Wear gloves and preferably a mask unless you like breathing in solvent fumes. If you're used to acrylics, remember not to sand your painting. Get informed with your local hazardous material waste center how to safely dispose of used solvents/paint residues/materials that have been in contact with either. That's just from the top of my head, but there's more of that without even getting started on technique.

It's really not necessary to bathe in solvents and eat lead white to paint with oils.

House painters and cleaners probably have a much higher occupational risk than fine artists these days.

True, but it's useful to know a bit about pigment toxicity when picking colors and how to dispose of your paint water to minimize harm to yourself and the environment (that applies to using watercolors, gouache and acrylics too, imo). And not, like, sleep right next to drying paint LOL.

>>712260
I think a bit of fear mongering is needed. You'd be surprised how common it is for both hobbyists and established professional painters just flush their turpentine down the drain, pile up their oil paint rags into a fire hazard, or work with cadmium or titanium white pigments without a mask on.

You definitely have a point about proper waste disposal not being followed enough but you don't usually need a mask or gloves for cadmium paints. Rags are a danger if you use linseed oil but so far I've never seen any instruction material that fails to mention this.

https://www.danschultzfineart.com/is-cadmium-paint-toxic/

"However, during the paint-making process the pigment is fused with sulfides and coated in the particular medium’s binder (oil, acrylic, gouache or watercolor). This process renders the cadmium insoluble in water, which greatly limits absorption by the human body. The cadmium does remain fat-soluble, so it’s still possible for us to absorb it if we constantly get a lot of it on our hands or ingest it. (Once again, don’t eat it!) But I’m not typically a messy painter, so I don’t bother with gloves. And cadmium paints don’t give off any dust or fumes, so no worries about inhalation either.³

With that said, you DO need to use extra caution if you’re sanding dry cadmium paint or spray-applying. If that’s you, make sure you wear a NIOSH dust respirator to eliminate the chance of inhaling cadmium particles. (Or any other harmful particles / dust.) The same advice applies if you work at all with dry cadmium or other pigments. (For example, if you like to make your own paint.)"

I have one and while I have nothing to complain about, you get what you pay for. A screen tablet for $400 is going to be just that, so if you're a hobbyist contempt with the smaller screen and no controls then it'll serve you well. But if you're a bit more serious about art I'd recommend saving up for a cintiq because you're going to want one after using this. But if you're on a budget or just looking to try it out I would say it's okay for the price.

NTA, but why is this always the first assumption?
I use graphics tablets instead of display pens, so my account is different. The Intuos nibs wear down a lot faster compared to the past, and Wacom drivers are still a mess. I had the options to get what I wanted, and wanted to try something different. I can't speak for the other brands, but I've been enjoying my XP-Pen and very surprised by the quality and haven't had issues with the drivers.

I heard that the color calibration wasn't the best on non-Wacom display pens. It's something I'll keep in mind if I decide to go the display pen route. But, just like how the non-Wacom pen tablets were horrible before they caught up in quality, I won't be surprised if their display pen's color calibration improves in the future.

I think way more important than style is genuine quality. The artists whose style is timeless (Moebius comes to mind) are usually also amazing artists with a great eye for all color, composition, perspective, etc.

This is just an art vent but I've allowed myself to become completely memed by the tablet craze even though I can't justify the expense of one. Every day I see beautiful artwork on SM that makes me want to start up drawing again but the thought of sitting at my computer with my chunky non-display tablet is so unappealing, I already spent so much time in front of the computer working from home that I don't want to be near it in my own time. I want the freedom of digital painting so traditional isn't interesting to me either, I want to draw in full colour on a single device from bed!
I know people create amazing artwork with just a computer mouse so I should be grateful for what I have, and I did used to be happy with my tablet, but now I'm so jealous of young beginner artists who are making leaps and bounds because they're constantly on their tablets.

It's kinda on and off now, I think the basis of why is different than in your case but one of the things that helped me and maybe could help you was focusing on some specific new thing, be it technical or general, finding artists that do it well, analyze why and try to learn that myself - for example: I like how leaves look, how to stylize them with line and color to have a cool effect? research, many artist do this, the more I look the more inspired I feel to try myself.
Other thing would be watching good art instructors on youtube, both advice and watching their process tend to be very motivating. Following specific step by step tutorials when possible is good too because it gets you to warm up and leads you precisely to some specific result you're pretty much guaraneed to achieve if you follow well, and completion still gives almost the same level of satisfaction as doing your own thing, which helps with rewriting your brain to remember how it was to feel good about creating.

Often times it's good to hang out with people who are more driven as it can inspire you too but somehow, even though I've tried joining art discords and all, it never helped me but always worth a try.

Hope someone else would have some more advice, good luck to you!

Also ot and kinda related to that tablet question, but do you guys struggle with posture because of drawing too?

I noticed that when I used my ipad a lot I would always crouch over and it seriously hurt my neck and back. I know people praise it for its portability and being able to draw anywhere and I kinda agree but only if you keep it short, when I want to draw for multiple hours I always need a proper setup on my desk.

The most ergonomic option would definitely be nonscreen tablet + monitor that's high enough so you can look straight on. For my work I use a 22in cintiq and it's better than the ipad because it's big enough that I don't have to look down as much but as a professional artist who draws hours every single day I'm worried that i'm fucking up my back long-term.

Do many of you know Limeona?
I used to like her stuff, but then she started drawing her characters with these dumb goofy noses that really ruin a whole piece for me.

Fortunately it seems recently she only does that on about half of her drawings. Hopefully she'll realise it makes her art look like goofysonas and stop it soon

oh, definitely. i had a cintiq pro 13" for a couple years and it killed my neck if i drew for extended periods of time. about a year ago i upgraded to a cintiq 22", bought an ergotron arm, and the difference is night/day. i do miss screenless tablets as my posture was never an issue, but drawing with a screen tablet is just a lot more efficient (for me at least).

perhaps you could look into smaller ergotron-type arms for an ipad, or a stand that elevates it to a more comfortable position?

Maybe you're right but I'm not normally that kind of person who just moves from one excuse to the next like that, it's not about having the latest brush packs and I'm not motivated by online popularity, this really is just about having a display tablet instead of sitting at the same computer where I'm chained to for eight hours a day.

not sure how relatable or helpful this is, but i also found myself frustrated during quarantine because i never had motivation to draw, and so i switched to other creative projects. bleaching and tie-dying shirts, making melt-and-pour soap, vintage embroidery kits, stuff like that. it was satisfying to have those creative outlets while taking a break from the kind of art i usually make. i still have ideas floating around in my head, but i'm not pressuring myself to commit them to paper. personally the "i should be more productive" thoughts are what makes my art blocks worse, so just having fun with other projects loosens me up a little, and makes drawing less of a chore when i get back to it.

but other than that, i agree with >>716828 in that i've always found other artists to be strong motivations. watching someone else's process can be really inspiring. i love watching artist documentaries because hearing them talk about their thoughts and philosophies on art can be just as if not more motivational than watching them actually working (highly recommend the illumination of jim woodring, a weird guy making weird art, but obviously you should find artists with styles or materials you're interested in)

I was about to suggest something like this. Other creative outlets are great. At worst, you learn a creative skill you don't have to take seriously and just enjoy on your own. At best, you develop a new way to adapt your artwork into something tangible or with a new take on it.

I've also found taking this route made me re-think how I approach my drawing and rekindle my love for it, since I was prone to overthinking, which would cause a hangup, which was passively fueling a burnout.

Also seconding watching other artists. Even things as basic as speedpaints and craft videos helped me out a lot.

>appealingly effortless to have one device, no cables and sit wherever you want even outdoors?

Yes, but it does have limitations like every tool. Personally I've had a few tablets through the years, I still use my Intuos 4 to this day, it never failed me in almost 10 years of use. Eventually I did get a display tablet but I fucked up by getting a cintiq companion, at the time it looked like an amazing idea to have a display tablet + a computer together. Turns out it gave me way more problems than solutions. It's super heavy , heats up like crazy and has a charging issue that had me sending it to be repaired once or twice a year, they could never fix the issue and discontinued the model. Ofc these are all very specific issues of this product, but even when it worked perfectly the experience of drawing in the display tablet was much different than I had in my head. After all this issues I was reluctant to buy the Ipad, so I've borrowed from a close friend for a week to test it out. It was kinda nice, but the program was very limited and weird to my tastes. It didn't go well with my way of doing things, so I ended up giving up on it. Sorry for my blogpost but I'm just trying to put out my perspective and experience on the subject.

All that aside, you might be the complete opposite to me and love it. If you really want one can't you save up to one? Is it too expensive for you?
I really recommend you try the product out first if you can. You don't need to borrow it, but go to the store when you can and try it out a bit, look up different reviews, especially negative ones so you know all about it. In the end, if you love it I see no reason in not considering buying one. It might require some saving up, but if it's a significant improvement to you then it's worth it.

If you have negative associations with computer use, and associate it with work, using a display tablet isn't gonna change that.

Digital art is boring anyway, everyone does it and it's easy to "advance" quickly when you paint over photos. If you want to actually enjoy making art, I suggest going traditional so it's nothing like your work process. Getting physical materials will likely be cheaper than forking out for a screen tablet which you might hate using.

tbh I think she's cute and she's at least voiced by a Native VA (often Native characters in 3D media aren't even portrayed by Native actors lmao), but can see that people could be wary since she's given no specific cultural background and has potential to fall into being the ~mystical~ and ~spiritual~ archetype. Also….the name Buffalo Wing, though they apparently have changed it to just BW because of complaints.
It's definitely too early to see if it will be respectful like ATLA/LOK, at least regarding character issues.

However, complaints about sexualization seem to be about fanart and specifically the official blog reblogging coomer art like pic related. The reason people will be upset about this is because of rates of sexual violence against Native American women and disregard for MMIW by law enforcement. It's a soft spot.

Overall my useless 2c opinion will always be that any people of X group disturbed by representation should make their own rep. This is even indie so there's no excuse. I assume most people who care are also Indigenous artists and it'd be awesome to see Native cartoons made by Natives.

Huh I thought the point was to explicitly NOT have an algorithm but to have the posts shown to the followers and users in chronological order, like it was the case for dA and tumblr. It's interesting because apparently it's hard to write an social media algorithm that doesn't value frequency/quantity to a larger degree.

>>718261

So true. The average instagram artist will always blame "the algorithm" instead of reflecting for a second if it's maybe their content that's the reason. It's definitely true that instagram favors basic boring aesthetic art of pretty girls but that's what most basic instagram artists do anyway so?? If anything you can actually benefit from the non-chronological feed because if your followers keep liking and interacting with your art you will be shown to them more. But chronological is definitely better for people who don't have the time to post multiple times a week.

What I was suggesting or more like what I would've wanted would've been the kind of algorithm in pinterest, I know some don't like pinterest but honestly the "more like this" feature is pretty amazing. I basically suggested making an algorithm that would promote works based on what people were already viewing, yanno furry art for furries, anime art for anime fanatics etc etc. It would help bring fans to your work and even if someone was popular, with this kind of algorithm, your work, if done well could easily be promoted next to someone who's works get shit ton of views just based on the fact that the content is visually similar. My idea wasn't really liked though, because it was apparently too similar to what IG already had though from my experience the IG discovery page never reflected on what I liked but what the community as a whole liked and I wanted it to be more individual user focused. I didn't bother arguing about it tho. Personally I would love any art site with pinterest kind of algorithm, because I always get really good suggestions there and when I do get something I don't like, I can just tell pinterest to stop showing it to me.

I can see why some people wouldn't completely like your idea, but that really could be fixed by having posts ordered differently by different tabs, like a "things you may like" tab, a "(actual) trending" tab, a "most recent" tab, etc… although to be fair I understand that may be a bit too much to expect from a small project like this in the short term. Maybe in a longer term they would consider it.

Yea I don't blame if the idea is hard, I just think back to DA where the recommendation algorithm is absolute shit. my idea is nowhere perfect ofc but I don't think any artist wants to see shit like furries in diapers, vore, 100 anime eyes like they do in deviantart frontpage. I'm worried that having no algorithm at all like artfol seems to plan on would result in a total mess where every work gets drowned out because people have no way to customize what they would prefer to see. It would hurt everyone in the long run. And yes your idea would ofc imo fix a lot of problems with this kind of system.

Anon you responded to here, I was talking about not having an algorithm on your main feed where you see the stuff from people you are following. When it comes to something like an explore/featured page I definitely agree with you that some kind of algorithm and preselection would be needed.

I think the artfol developers are REALLY playing up their appeal to people who are fed up with instagram though. Getting personal suggestions or just having high-quality art featured (like the old dA frontpage) is good for good artists and art viewers. It's not so good for bad artists though because their art doesn't have a target audience but they still want it to be shown to others, so artfol's "everyone has an equal opportunity to be seen" is really appealing to them. As someone who doesn't care much about my reach and likes looking at good art I don't think it's a good idea either.

Yea I completely agree with you, if I do follow someone, it's because I DO want to see their art so the whole "prioritizing" amongs the people you follow is dumb as shit.

and I think you hit the nail in the coffin with that, because from what I saw from the developer, well to put it nicely he's not exactly a good artist himself so I can imagine that even for his personal benefit, having a system that prioritizes quality is not ideal. Of course I'm just pushing for my own benefit too. I'm not a wonderful artist but not a beginner either, so what I care is also seeing beautiful works that can inspire me to get better, if it comes with followers on the side that's only a plus.

this seems like the type of fantasies girls have for older men. Which makes me wonder, how does it fall morally when it's girls self inserting as the little girl, instead of men self-inserting as the grown man? There's a small fandom called cedfia whose fans are grown women who self-insert as a 6 yrs old girl.

sorry for non salty content but for those of you who have sold merch before, have you found it more or less stressful than making your income through commissions? I tend to psyche myself out taking commissions and end up spending 2x long on a drawing than I normally would, and they also kill my motivation to draw, so I'm considering closing commissions and becoming a more fanart/merch heavy artist. I guess I just want insight into if the switch was worth it and at what size following merch becomes more efficient than taking comms.

Live figure drawing is really irreplacable, and drawing from stills is less helpful. If its possible rcord videos of yourself in different poses, or videos of other people. Those can be as long as you want them to be depending on what you want to learn.

in terms of production, it's easier to make fanart/merch over commissions because you have more freedom and aren't making something specific for someone else. but in terms of stability, it's not guaranteed how much merch you'll sell, so it's kind of risky in that regard. you're right that following size matters, but there's no magic number, it's more about how many followers you have that are willing to buy things.
if it's possible for you to juggle both, that might be more satisfying for you. but if not, maybe give merch a try and see if you like the process better, but know that you might have a net loss if you put money and effort into something you don't break even on.

It depends, for merch you have to do one piece upfront and if it's popular enough you can monetize that in different ways. It definitely helps to have a following and an art style that suits the thing you are making fanart of - so if it's an anime anime-ish styles sell well, or for video games more realistically rendered styles like Sakimichan. But the merch market is really saturated too so finding customers is not guaranteed.

Also you have to be mindful of copyright laws. It's usually not legal to make money off fanart. Artists treat it like a gray area because most companies won't bother to come after a smaller artist but some will.

You can't get real depth information from a picture. Your eyes looking at an object or figure, canunderstand the shape of an object and how light interacts with it, as well as how various objects relate to it. There's also the fact that in photography depending on the lens used the depth perception changes.

Drawing from life you can also move around the subject while in picture drawing you are forced to look from one perspective. Moving around the subject as well as changing the lighting or the surrounding objects you can accurately learn what youre actually looking at and how it behaves in a 3 dimensional space.

Most artists that you see doing realistic artwork only learn how to copy pictures, since thats how they learnt to understand the human form. You can tell in their artwork that isn't 100% copied that they have trouble really understanding their subject matter.

I find it far less stressful. A one-off design born from a doodle can rake in much more than one custom art you spent a few hours on. Every once in a while, I'll get an itch to take a commission. But, I'm finding myself at a point where it's really not worth my time. Even with the shipping, marketing, listing, and packaging, I still personally enjoy it more than the commissions.

Don't rely on your follower count and don't wait to hit a certain amount to start. They're great for free marketing, but not all of them will buy. You'd be better of trying some Quickstarter projects with a built-in audience who will actually pay, and then starting an Etsy shop to sell off your leftovers if you want to go that route.

For original designs, look into print-on-demand like >>719270. Places like Redbubble and Society6 are good for originals. Be careful w/fanart merch. I've had some designs taken down after they made a few sales. It's funny how they went untouched other than that.

ik people criticize Jackie's craft kit reviews, but I honestly do appreciate them for better or worse. people usually just don't review stuff they don't like but that just leaves you with a lack of information on whether or not it actually works vs whether it's just something people decided to not leave a review on.

it's nice knowing which kits are less beginner-friendly than others, which are just overpriced, and which just plain aren't worth it. Esp if you buy things for kids because they like their things to work properly and as a kid, I even remember getting upset when kits my parents bought me didn't work or didn't have any instructions on how to use them.

The "teehee I can't draw hands" one in particulary bugs me because I'm not perfect at drawing hands but I can draw them fine enough, and I don't even have any tricks. I literally just use a reference and that's it.

That specific girl's post actually had a bunch of others (can't draw cars, can't draw animals, can't draw furries, can't/draw humans). It really is as you said but the real problem is that they do it so much it ends up boiling to "I literally cannot draw anything else other than cute pastel girls standing there".

She also doesn't give good reviews.

But they're valid points though on the simple kits for small children. Small children are very dexterous and actually do enjoy a bit of a challenge. Not to mention, it holds their attention and refines their motor skills more if you can actually give them a relative challenge beyond just sticking this to this, and bam you're done.

and not to mention, in the age of YouTube, there really isn't a need to buy a kit if you would come out cheaper just buying the stuff from the dollar store. I get convenience and all, but sometimes it just isn't worth it esp in kits where I'd have to go get my own shit anyway or they straight up don't work how they're supposed to. It ain't really a good gift if it doesn't work properly.

Agreed. Although some kits are really trash if they don't do what they advertise. And then there are the kits that I wonder if Jacky is too clumsy or too much of an adult to work with them properly. In the end, she is still a teacher so I trust her opinions when it comes to judging if kits are age-appropriate or the activities keep kids occupied.

But a whole other thing are her concerns for the environment. Like you said, I also don't get why she is so focused on biodegradable glitter when she's buying so much plastic crap (those mini-brands are shit made gold) and works a lot with resin.

General salt I can only share here.

I'm not talking about the usual no loli, no gore, no porn stuff. I mean straight up preferences.

I've seen quite a few big artists (100k-500k followers) promote their posts, so it seems to be working for them. Been thinking about trying it out of curiosity too, as long as you just invest a few dollars into it.

On a sidenote I tried tik tok for art too and got a lot of views and likes and even followers on there. But people on tiktok like and follow verrry quickly and in the end a following doesn't mean that much because most people browse on their fyp anyway. It's only when your face or whatever you do becomes so recognizeable that you are essentially your own brand that it actually matters. That plus only a small fraction of the followers will come over onto your main platform (instagram or twitter or whatever else) and they tend to be super young whereas my regular ig followers are more around my age so mid-late 20s.

There's still a market for non-screen tablets, especially with the lower cost of entry, lack of posture issues without having to invest in extra hardware, and their longevity.

Combine that with the advice that's often given that display pens aren't really worthwhile unless they're 15" or more (which isn't a lie, but something smaller might be fine for a hobbyist), it's better to invest in a good graphics tablet over a small display pen.

Likewise, some artists prefer not having their hand in the way. A good number of 3D artists also prefer mice and graphics tablets over display pens. When I'm doing drafting work, I don't want my hand in the way. I like the blind contour feeling and benefit from the disconnect, believe it or not.

I still wouldn't mind a display pen for the sake of working more naturally versus technically, but I found that upgrading the size of my graphics tablet from a way-too-small one with better button options and controls help out sooooooooooo much.

Like preferring to sketch with an ink pen instead of a pencil, it's really a matter of taste and your own needs.

I have been using a nonscreen tablet for years because for the longest time it was the only thing I could afford.

It does feel more intuitive to draw directly onto the screen but if someone has <$100 and wants to do digital art they should definitely try a non screen tablet. It's really not that bad once you get used to it, it's so much cheaper and more ergonomic too.

I agree that it comes down to personal preference, it's like driving a manual vs an automatic car. One might be slightly less complicated but the difference is so very small, it's really just a matter of what you're used to.

So, PERSONALLY, I've always found screen tablets such a meme, and really just an excuse for consoomers to spend their money, thinking it will make them better artists somehow. The dramatic surge of mediocre artists walking around with an iPad pro at my art school confirms that. If you're a good artist it doesn't matter if you draw on a dirty napkin or a $3000 screen tablet.

Well professionals usually have another monitor that has perfect color accuracy to check for the colors. With the slightly textured surface and seeing how it has to handle to many functions at once the cintiq never perfectly accurate but better than most other screen tablets out there. Some people just enjoy drawing on the screen itself and as long as you keep checking the colours regularly it's not a big deal and the differences are usually small anyway. But technically you could just hook up a screenless tablet to an accurate screen and draw while looking at that.

I don't think they are accusing her of racism because of the y2k fashion tweet.
I think what happened was Javi person posts this >>723609 and some people get mad at her, but that's not enough of a reason to cancel someone so they go through her tweets until they find anything more serious and they find this >>723692. They use that as an argument to say she is racist, even if it makes no fucking sense at all. People >>723662 are implying javi is close friends to meyoco and that meyoco is blocking people who are accusing javi of being racist or whatever, so they turn their heads to meyoco and say >>723654 she doxxed a 15yo.

I don't necessarily think what she said is wrong, but the timing of it is. You gotta be tone-deaf to say something like this during the BLM protests.

No. 723774

What you say is basically true, but I think you are devaluating how salty they got with the y2k tweet. I saw people saying she was "whitewashing" y2k by associating it with Paris Hilton, so even if it weren't for those other tweets I think they would had still triyed to cancel her, plus with her supposedly "blocking a problematic amount of black artists"
Meyoko's case is interesting cuz the type of people that tries to cancel someone for not liking "black pioneered" fashion isn't the type you'd expect to care about trump supporters getting doxxed. I guess that's where that Carl Schmitt quote about friend and enemy comes in.

It's really only gimmicky because of iPad's marketing and social media clout. For contrast, the Samsung tablets can run CSP, but there isn't much clout around it. I've met more people interested in drawing thinking they absolutely NEED a screened tablet (usually iPad) without out really putting pen to paper to see if they'd actually like drawing as it is. Otherwise, the display pens had been a way to integrate traditional artists into digital work for quite a while, long before iPads were considered as a potential art tool. I'm actually disappointed at the gimmick it's developed, but the only upside is that more price point options have come up.

I think it's projection. Guys online meet a female artist and put her on a pedestal because they're running on TFW NO ARTIST GF fumes. When it turns out she's just a normal person that's trying to make it like everyone else/is talented and successful in her own right and isn't their pet idol, they get mad and throw accusations like that.

This is kinda getting into political stuff but I think the reason for that is because militarism is pretty taboo between left-ish people (robots often end up leaning into that territory as well) and it also has another bonus that because militarism implies violence it will also keep most younger kids away (and unless you draw actual really really grotesque action the edgier kids will also stay away because of it being "too boring"). Basically, cute aesthetics for better or for worse are childish so they atract childish people, wich leads to higher possibility childish tantrums.

She doesn't have a good enough grasp of 3d objects and shading because she got too used to her style where she can kinda just wing everything because she can get away with it being a cartoony style. Triying to emulate 3d styles means she can't get away with it without falling into slightly uncanney valley.
I don't think she's regressing, it's just that she's one of those artists whose whole brand orbits around having a very specific artstyle, so she stagnated a bit (tbh I can understand; she found the style that gives her an audience, and having that ad revenue probably makes a whole difference in a college student's life). This is on her regular style tho. If you look at her realism vids she actually improved a good ammount (I'd still call it a bit bad but it's still an A+ for effort). Maybe outside of the internet she does other things, we can't know.

No. 724246

Pretty much. Also, military and sci-fi art is filled with little details and parts that have to fit together, or at least look like they do, and drawing robots/vehicles/weapons without understanding 3D shapes and perspective is incredibly difficult. That usually intimidates younger artists who want to copy their faves.

They left to follow the NSFW artists because stalking them and calling them out are the sole purposes of their online existence.

This feels like shit started by someone with WAY too much time on their hands. But I guess that's true for a lot of Twitter art drama.

What happened to this design? It was outlandish when I first saw it, but most eastern dragons tended to be that way. The final product looks too toned down compared to it. Maybe Sisu will have a transformation scene in the movie somewhere.

I've been looking throught people commenting about Javi draws on twitter and Jesus Christ good lord these people are freaking psychotic. Now they're full on cancelling anybody that defends Javi or Fatma, and they're also LARPing about how they want consequences for them. Goddamn what's wrong with them to have this violent victim complex? Rabbies or some shit?

Also, because of Fatma getting involved a lot of other middle easterners also got involved. Tbh would be kinda funny if the black artists just started getting full blown racist to the arabs and made this thing devolve into a race war.

Nah, Angel Face's second tweet says "there I translated it to you" so she's just being really freaking over dramatic. Black artists right now on twitter have fully convinced themselves that every single person that defended Javi is actually out there to find secret special ways to call them n*gger to their face.

Probably projection of them being the ones that want to start calling javi defenders sandn*gger towelhead terrorists or something

>Doesn't make someone a racist for saying that anyway. Even if it was a bad timing, she didn't dismiss the BLM movement in her tweet.
I know this is late but whatever: ayrt, I didn't say she was racist but even if she didn't dismiss the blm movement, it doesn't take much common sense to know that if you tweet something like that during BLM, people are gonna think it's about blm. This was tweeted during the beginning/the peak of blm, so I don't think it's too farfetched to think that this that wasn't a coincidence. Again, I don't think non-American people are racist for not wanting to address American issues but we don't have to play dumb about this.

Man I get so annoyed by entitled artists who think they "deserve" followers and engagement. It's always the most sub-mediocre basic artists who say that shit too. They see a couple of mediocre artists who got lucky with huge followings and think that should be them when there's just so many art accounts out there that go completely unnoticed often by artists who are actually good. Nobody is owed anything. If you are so desperate just make some actual good art or pay for ig promo. I'd be embarrassed to beg for followers.

I think I accidentally caused the Angel Face girl to have a mental break down by asking her about her old account on curious cat

Damn girl, I understand having metal illnesses but still wanting to do social justice things or whatever, but if you already know you're gonna get a mental breakdown when anybody turns heads to you then the least you could do is trying to at least be more agreeable instead of throwing shit at everybody agressively and get surprised when people get mad or question you
