She starts off by saying she hired 100 artist- but the number is seen to fluctuate (80,60 etc) when Brown describes it. The Zine is called "True Colors" because of the horrendous color pallet she forced everyone to use. The Zine Can be found here: https://tictail.com/truecolorsmha/true-colors-zine-mha >First off, she is late for the deadlines with her own art for the zine, she will not release the PDF to the participating artist, says she will make many copies but currently just has supplies for around 50 copies, Her art pieces look shitty (as normal) but at least the other artist are good>She is fucking the artist over because they are young and don't know any better>Constantly gets angry whenever someone asks questions about the zine and its progress> """Redisning""" some of her characters but they pretty much still look the same, ended up whitewashing Princess (her black girl oc) and claims she is more cuter>Her brother returns and is living with her again (at her aunts)>Went on a Keto diet for about a day, then quits>Going to have our comics printed professionally while she prints the zines her self>Wants to create another zine of her art pieces only>Keeps wining about the artists she screwed over getting mad at her ignoring their emails and not updating them about her progress on the zine books>She refuses to send the PDF of the zine to any of the other artists that contributed so that they would have to order from her or make their own copies to sell at cons

>>668163It isn't the other people who are the problem, Holly, involving yourself in groups isn't inherently bad. It's the way you went about it.
It would have been better/easier if you communicated more and if you hadn't insisted on being at the helm a big project thinking you could minimize interaction with others as much as humanly possible. And then get away with it. Now you're regretting you got caught and stuck with the work.
Deal with it.
No. 668194
>>668163i’m honestly shocked and actually slightly proud that she admitted it was her fault and that the person wasn’t just a “hater”. the fact that it’s a group project does not mean that it was bound to fail though. i think she does finally realize how awful she is at taking on leader responsibilities and managing/talking to many people. maybe she’ll do better in the future?? (i know it’s like a 1 in a million event, but i wanna give her a chance.)
Also, who else thinks that if she had been a part of a large group zine before this, that it would have been handled a little bit better? She hasn’t been a part of any other zines, right? sorry, but who in the world thinks they can manage a huge project like this without ever having been a part of something similar?

Also in the first reply to the person who pointed out some stuff, holly had to bash other zines to make her feel better. Its not going to be the same if these zines she made are shitty to.. But we will have to wait to verify that when they ship out or if she sells some at sanjapan.

Not to mention their stupid southern valley girl speak they do """ironically""", 'yass gurl, slayyy'.

She would probably be better off not redoing old pages at all. A lot of the comics I read do have significant art shift between the first few pages and the final pages. It's just unrealistic expecting the art in your comic to not evolve as you get better at art.

>>670074>>670078Listen, Holly's art is ugly but you would have to be blind to think the first few pages of Purgatory looked better than the newer pages. Sure, I would agree the art in the original one-shot of Purgatory was much more creative than the current expanded comic but it still looked wonky as hell.
Speaking of the original one-shot of Purgatory, does anybody have screenshots of it from Holly's earlier videos? I feel like a lot of the newer anons keep parroting how Holly's earlier stuff was 'so great' because they actually have no idea of how bad her early stuff actually looked.
No. 670096

No. 670376
>>670084Holly showed signs of evolving and changing and learning different styles of art and seemed like she could be pretty varied as an artist but the last two years she’s stagnated and gotten worse.
Her old styles showed character and growth, her new stuff shows just how much she doesn’t care about her own art, it’s like instead of telling herself that she’ll use these few years of school to learn/practice the things they try to teach to grow as an artist and instead said “OHHH IF I TELL PEOPLE I WAS IN ART SCHOOL THEY WILL THINK IM PRO”
I really want to know what the fuck happened to her, like does she seriously only draw because she thinks it’ll make her money?
No. 670419
>>670376Here's my analysis.
I think because she doesn't really respect anyone's opinion but her own when it comes to art critique, the only way she has to measure her art's worth is with how much money she can make with it.
She looks like she has both a superiority and inferiority complex; she looks down on others because they're not "good enough" but then she realises herself that she has big issues and because she doesn't know how to fix them she goes back to shitting on others, which doesn't help her improve and only isolates her more. It's a vicious circle.
There's a learning curve for artists and very regularly we encounter walls. Most try to break down that wall, albeit often with a few very bad attempts until they figure out what really blocks them the most, but in Holly's case, because she doesn't want to have to face a wall, she just. turns around, so she doesn't have to deal with that shit.
No. 670447
>>670376
>does she seriously only draw because she thinks it’ll make her money?yes.
She seems to like the 'idea' of being an artist, who makes a living off of her own stuff, but when it comes to actually doing it, she doesn't seem to necessarily enjoy it, so she's always bitching about it in some way or other.It feels like she's not being honest with herself.

>>670473Last one I’m posting because this highlights why she can’t take criticism at all, because her head is so far up her ass and her skin is so thin that even the most mundane and easy going critique will be seen as “harsh, mean and unneeded bullying”

No. 670695
>>670552The thing is, I don’t think holly can enjoy much in life outside of the narcissistic supply she receives from social media. She’s gotta do some deep digging and feel fire out how to be happy an present in the moment, that’s for sure. She’s constantly living in the future, with another project or goal around the corner, and once that’s finished, she thinks she will
finally attain the result she craves. She always says art is a constant struggle but she hasn’t really experienced that yet. She’s still an art baby but in my opinion that’s okay and everyone takes a different amount of time to get past these mental blocks. It’s just been a hell of a funny ride and I hope she keeps going, in whatever direction she chooses. /blogpost
No. 670714
>>670695In all honesty I feel for Holly, I mean I don’t think we should go easy on her or anything but I can very much empathize with her struggles since I went through much the same and really all I’d like to see is her get some help and a few irl friends and learn to live life before she’s a super bitter 30 year old with no joy in anything.
It’d be great to see her grow as an artist and see if she can actually make good pieces one day but I’d rather see her get mental help then monetary gain.

So I just found this on her tapastic. She has a comic series where she is supposed to draw a comic guide to comics but instead she just takes other people's work and gets tipped for it apparently.

No. 673091
>>673045Yet she doesn't do any fixing even after printing, she would notice they are fucked up in prints if that would be the case.
All the poses look stiff and boring, there is no interaction between any of the characters, the guy with the eye patch has a tumblr block nose and no back of the head. Also I don't know why his hand was placed there, is he saluting or just adjusting his eye patch like it's a pair of glasses? And that terrible gradient… It's not as bad as her other work, but still bad.
No. 673103
>>673076>>673042Yeah, i guess she means cool toned but her dumbass said blue.
Thing is I do agree with the anons that are saying her monitors colors are problably fucked. …or either her eyesight in general.
Blogpost:
On my previous laptop something about the magenta/red scale was a bit fucked up. I would espically notice it when I either used other computers monitors or in my phone (if looking at the same picture.)
I also was aware when I was trying to color something pinkish/hot pink HUE and it would just look like regular red no matter how far up the red-magenta slider i went. Then once i got on my phone to see the drawing, i could see the pink that was suppose to be there.
Thing is, it wasnt that extreme of a difference in range.
Holly may have her moniters colors so fucked up where nothing looks as she intends it to be. It could explain why everything either looks too muddy/unsaturated/too saturated/piss yellow filtered/yikes in general.
Again there is also the chance since she has super bad dyslexia, she may have color blindness too.

The bodies look pretty damn good for Holly, same with the faces (my poor wrath) mind you hats where this stops, it might be the best piece and best fanart she’s done in the last two years but it’s still not great innof itself, but at least she can tell who the characters are!
The composition, the colouring hurts and I hate that blue she could have done a different shade of red or maybe a reddish purple to keep with the colour theme the blue looks so weird and washed out it doesn’t sit well with he rest, the characters are all smushed together in weird ways like it’s supposed to look like one of those manga spreads where it shows off all the characters but all the heads and bodies are the same size and floating together instead

seriously did you read the tweet?
>>672858 No. 673413
>>673409I did and i thought the point is she made one guys face 'blue' (though it's purple) as a test and she's thinking about making the whole thing that color - so it's not meant to blend in.
But the rest of our discussion is about why she said blue when it's not blue (so is her monitor fucked) and you're also saying it's blue -but you mean blue 'added to red' (purple). Maybe she meant that too.
No. 673439
>>673413Well it’s like she dropped the opacity on a really pale blue and ran it over the red and it didn’t make a proper purple but a washed out grey pink/blue? Like if it had a noticeable purple tone to it i think it’d mix better than this because it looks really muddy and grey
Or maybe I’m crazy colourblind and not seeing the right shades I dunno

Also there is no point of paying more than 20k a year to a private art college if I can get the same or comparable education by self study. The only way I could ever justify paying that much for an art college is if the professors, alumni or even the name of the college itself would help be secure a paid art position later on in life. Otherwise it is completely pointless shelling out so much money for a sub-par education.

RMCAD actually has the best illustration degree in Colorado. Their animation program isn't very great, and their fashion program sucks. RMCAD is also cheaper for CO residents than for transplants, and the online program is less than half the cost of the on-ground one.
However, I only go to RMCAD because I have to live in CO for family reasons. Under better circumstances, I would have gone to SCAD or Ringling.
There's one illustration prof in particular who kicks ass, but I'm not naming him here for his sake.
>>675554I say if you have the discipline and the connections, you don't need an art degree. However, some people need a structured environment in which to acquire those things. Networking with other artists is the most valuable thing about art school imo.
No. 676035
>>676029No one except for maybe one idiot here said that it was. Just that it maybe makes networking easier, but even then it's not a guaranteed investment.
Even now she's wasting her time with RMCAD. she obviously thinks she's ahead of the cirriculum and thinks little of it (it's not helping with her inflated ego either),
some of the courses she seems to be taking are very basic or fundamental, but she's probably finishing her degree up out of obligation more than anything (I believe she mentioned that in an older vlog).

RMCAD Anon here again. Okay, sorry for spamming the thread and for namefagging(?)
But it turns out I was in a class with Holly in the semester in that just ended. It was a painting class, and boy howdy, did her work SUCK. Easily some of the worst art on the critique threads. Here's some insider milk.
Turns out, Holly submitted digital art for some of the traditional assignments, which is a form of academic dishonesty at RMCAD (I've seen people get in trouble for it).
No. 676097
>>676092Ok, beyond the shittiness of her paintings, can we talk about her grammar? I mean, if she's posting a sentence, then you'd think she could at least Google the proper spelling of words like "existence" and not use text speak like 'idk'. The first thing they teach for online classes is usually about spell checking your submissions and having proper grammar…
I'm shocked that she didn't fail out of the class. The oil painting one is a bit harder to instantly detect, but the top paintings with the cow are so obviously digital.
No. 676113
>>676092>submitting an actual Photoshop filter in for an assignmentI’m shittin’ at the audacity. Also, man, I hope those three at the top left are supposed to be thumbnails, because they (and the cow especially) look like they were done in 15 minutes tops.
These actually bum me out because of how little effort is put into them. Like, she needs to take a break from art and reenergize or something.
No. 676132
>>676126Nah, no one cares about an art degree. You might as well be burning the cash you paid to get that piece of paper. At the end of the day, it's what you put in to your own efforts to learn the skills you need. Art is a very independent sort of field, and to be able to work it, you need to demonstrate what you can do, not what degrees you have.
So she can skirt by on shit tier work and get ten art degrees, it wouldn't matter to anyone else except her guardian. It happens so often, people will go into a cheap school for an art degree just to say that they have a degree.

>>677426It looks like Holly brought more stuff with her, so it looks overwhelmingly like only her table. Michie's stuff is mixed in there, interspersed between Holly's stuff and the only way you can tell it's hers is by how dopey the characters look, but the colors are better.
Overall though it looks like a wreck. That hot pink cloth is so garish.

>>677430 it does. what do you think its from then? just because? its a habit developed as a child that isnt fixed. kids do it initially because of weak hand muscles and if it isnt corrected at some point, then you start seeing people carry it into adulthood.
on another note, i see a LOT more of holly's stuff on that table than mitchies. whats the point of getting a table at a con if you have like 2 prints?
No. 677484

I’ve sold at conventions for a long while now and this setup is an eyesore. Especially the binder clips not properly supporting the prints and letting it fold in like that. The table is a confusing mess as well. If I were there, I’d just keep walking.

No. 677761
this may be a bit tin foil hat but I low key think holly purposefully made her prints oversized and brought a shit ton of things so that people only mostly saw her stuff over Michie's smaller prints and merch. Looking at the table you'd have to practically dig to find Michie's stuff.
>>677673Yeah no, I don't believe for a second Monique would just pm her about the situation if she could and leave it at that, Monique is and has always been about grandstanding and calling people out for attention. To make herself look good. And also way to go for possible cow tipping(not that it's a concern, we know Holly reads here, and so does she).

>>679488I hope she's not counting the money she made from the BNHA zines into her "profit". She still owes those artists a lot.
Also…500 is a huge gap of money, and it makes me sad that she'd just casually tweet "1000-1500", and just openly boast about it. Most artists don't do that, or they give a vague comment without disclosing the actual number.
No. 679601
>>679574Can confirm this statement. An acquaintance of mine that was tabling there made much more than the amount Holly claims she made, and their following is nowhere near what she has.
I will also add that San Japan's location happens to be very good for an anime convention (don't really feel like getting into the logistics of why atm), so she theoretically should have made a lot more profit if she played her cards better.
No. 679657
>>679618Assuming she did. That 500 gap is WAY too worrysome. Unless she maybe means that those 500 are not only hers but it's what was raised for the fanzine?
I agree with other anons that she doesn't know what "profit" is and just uses it for the total she raised without considering production costs, general expenses and stuff.
No. 679668
>>679618I get the sneaking suspicion that she had not been taking inventory in what she sold

No. 679686
>>679678NTA but given Holly's poor money management and weird reasoning, to me she just picked the wrong word.
Plus she didn't print so much stuff to begin with and I doubt her seize comic sold that much, especially when she was banned from showing it.
She had a few prints, some stickers and a couple of books; and her art is nothing to die for, so I would believe the 1000/1500 being the takings.
No. 679691
>>679686She brought only 25 prints, which means even if she sold them all (which she didnt) she'd only make $375. No idea how much other shit she brought or for how much but she would've had to bust fucking ass to get to $1000 in takings, let alone profit. Her con expenses were easily 2k or more - there was a Google doc of her spending in one of the threads including con stuff. I'm positive she's just misusing words as always.
Even if she did somehow manage to make 3 grand total she's going to immediately throw it away on stupid shit she will never use so it'll be like she never profited in the first place.

Holly doesn't buy anything used or tries to plan out her supplies, it's always what she WANTS vs what she NEEDS
Holly doesn't even do animations OR animatics anymore because it was too much work and people kept giving her pointers on how to make her animations nicers and more structured and instead she flipped her shit and gave up, after wasting ALLL that money.

>>679678I said takings because no one knows their profit that quickly until there’s a full stock count and tax deductions taken off.
Like another anon said - following doesn’t count for much in the con scene. My following isn’t small, but it’s not as big as hers by even half and I get a few visitors of my work - but even if I had 100k subscribers not all of them would show up? It’s a case of if you’re in the area type thing. Unless you’re a celebrity you’re not going to draw people in to just come and visit you and you alone.
She had no stock, barely any high end priced stock (no prints although idk how much her comics were) and her art is weak in the whole big picture of convention artists. So that’s why I think it’s takings.

I honestly can care less with how much money she make/has, there's nothing wrong with girl making that coin but when she blows all that quick made cash on art programs, book presses, printers on top of printers, super expensive sketchbooks, iPads and the like, then a week later just stops using it and bitches she has no money.

She is half assing her classes just to have a piece of paper that tells the she has a degree and spending thousands of dollars on that. I never hear holly talking something good about the classes on her vlog, she is always complaining
If she really didn't have any money she wouldn't spend all this on useless shit. It would be more smart to get a business degree or something to have a stable income and do art as a side job and help her and her family bc we can see her college classes are not helping at all with her art.

>>680472It's kinda shocking how her studies in the bottom half of the page look really good for once, and then you look up to her "original drawings" and it's…. still like
that. From their poses it's painfully obvious she's trying to make them look sexy/appealing but the stilted posing and inaccurate anatomy give the exact opposing feeling.
Like, what the hell is going on with Momo's hips? They look detached from her torso. And on the right, in addition to the usual shitty mitten-hands, the green Momo's jacket makes absolutely no sense. Also, god, I just noticed the weird thigh gap she has, it looks like her tibia is broken.
As for Kirishima, he suffers from a classic case of Holly BRown™ girafe neck, but in a different way than usual: instead of the head being too far from the shoulders, now it's the neck going way too deep into the torso, which makes his pecs abnormally low. Also, for someone obsessed with dorito shaped things, Holly sure doesn't know how to draw the basic dorito-like buff dude body type, her "buff" dudes just look like square lumps with random lines drawn on them. Another day passes and Holly still doesn't know how to use references.
At this point I'm almost convinced she has never seen an actual live human being before, and the person representing her at conventions isn't her, but some robot or double. It's the only rational explanation for her being this fucking bad.

POINT IS - Water and doctors visit, maybe try a high protein, low sodium, lots of veggie diet, like normal fucking people when shit like this happens help too. Cut the Keto shit and go on a real day by day diet and stick to it. And actually visit a doctor for once, like for real Holly, go to a doctor and start fixing ALLLLL your shit.

Another zine artist here, and I'm fucking pissed. I mean really fucking pissed. And i am totally down for us setting up a zine artist discord so us artists feel less lost and alone about this whole thing cause that's exactly what ive been feeling these past few months.
I literally went from defending this bitch to ready to virtually deck her ass into next week and ive been trying. to be so nice. But i feel like I'm about to explode. Con's over and aint shit in my inbox. Idk how much I'm getting paid, idk what the hell happened to the store cause we haven't gotten an email from her since july. I feel like I just threw my 5 dollars into the void. I'm so fucking pissed.
I wasnt even a huge fan of her, i just happened to be subscribed to her when she announced the zine and i was like "cool i love mha!" jesussssss
I dont regret doing the zine cause i love the piece that i submitted and im DEFINITELY gonna be selling it as a print, not even gonna change the colors cause i love the palette.
I just dont understand why she had to do EVERYTHING herself. She shouldve had a team of two or three people helping her, one person for artist communication, one person for better cover design and promotion on the barren wasteland thats the truecolorszine tumblr, and she can be her own little factory and make 100+ books by hand if she wanted. Im just. So tired.

Did she do this last week because she never mentioned anything about it then, and we all know she would.
And also, again crohns doesn’t make you throw up blood, ulcers and stomach cancers do, but not crohns, something that has to do everything with your bowels and not your stomach

I don’t get why she’s so against a discord group. She acts like the artists will go wild and post random shit in there constantly or get into fights or something. That, and she sits at her computer all day for her job and school anyways. I don’t think it’s too difficult to leave discord open and check in twice a day, maybe set up some rules if need be.
Oh wait, but then she’d have absolutely no excuse for her lack of communication and couldn’t keep doing the “the email must have been sent to the wrong address/got lost??/messed up!!” shtick.
I feel so bad for the zine artists. I mean, you don’t expect a semi-popular YouTube artist (or any artist hopefully) to put together a huge zine and then scam everyone. Especially with how quickly Holly deletes so much of her past milk and how it’s only brought up in these threads. If I hadn’t seen these threads before she announced it, I would’ve been interested in participating. Also, some people are going to say that she hasn’t scammed the artists yet, but lesbi real, she’ll be taking the bulk of the money for shit reasons and if she somehow gets called out on it, she’ll say it was a mistake and still keep the cash, giving ppl more dumb excuses as to why. She’s not smart, but that doesn’t excuse the mismanagement of other people’s work and money.

>>676246Sorry, super late, but I wanted to answer this question because I think the answer valuable information.
The classes she took this summer that I know of (Digital Illustration and Landscape Painting) are classes people typically take as sophomores; they're not specification courses, but they're also not prerequisites for anything, so they're the kind of classes you can take whenever.
What I can say is that if she was "just finishing up" her degree, she would already be working on portfolio reviews and specifications (in her case sequential classes, of which I think there for three or four). So the classes she's taking are basically early intermediate classes; they're some of the first non-foundations illustration majors usually take, along with Perspective and Mastering the Pencil.
As for additional milk, there's not much I can provide. I had another class (digital illustration) with her, but it was long enough ago that the class forums for it are gone. I do recall one of her pieces getting blasted in critiques for having too many distracting wood textures and for being poorly composed.
I wont be able to supply more milk until next summer, because that's the only time I take online classes.

>>681160Sure Holly, educate people on how to raise kids, since you’re apparently an expert in this field too.
Honestly though it’s not like people are doing something bad in pointing out something that’s against the RULES you agreed with when you booked your booth.
It’s not parents being petty, it’s what the CONVENTION asked to do, because guess what? Apparently they’re slightly more practical than you and they know well that grabbing your kids’ hands 4 days nonstop in a place that’s designed to be safe for them (hence the fucking rule) it’s not doable.
Kids are curious, they run around and you can’t blame them for liking anime. Most conventions here don’t even charge tickets for kids up to 10 years; if they wanted the con to be more “mature”, they’d have a ticket or straight up not allow that kind of audience.
But sure, Holly, you know better; you shit on basic ass rules that are common sense and suddenly you’re a victim.
A kid that’s a big fan of yugi oh, Totoro, Ojamajo Doremi or whatever they like has any right to visit a convention that’s listed as ALL AGES.
I mean sure, there’s a sticker on the thing, but it’s still there and it’s open for everybody to see. I’m pretty sure everybody and their mom picked at “non age appropriate” content out of curiosity despite the disclaimers, so don’t act dumb like “it’s their fault they can’t read”. Damn, one can even be distracted and open it, not noticing the sticker.
Follow the frikkin rules, holly.
On another topic I am really infuriated at how she talked about the molestation because it sounded like she just found it funny. I know people can act awkward when they don’t feel comfortable talking about something but… that smiling, dismissing and the choice of words made her look like really bad.
She sounded really happy though, like she seriously enjoyed her time and I am so happy for this.

>>681452that's not what i'm saying. not releasing the amount of money she has already made at san japan is just extremely fishy to me, and the more time passes between sj and the next time she updates the artists with sales figures, the more likely it is something gets 'lost'
with her track record, i find it extremely fishy that she is going to only use part of the total sales to calculate what the artists are going to receive.
think of it this way: you have a partner and the two of you make jewelry, they make the designs, you craft them and sell them. when your partner wants to know about the money, you tell them you're going to give them their share of the proceeds of the online store and even send them the receipts for that, yet you don't mention the amount you have made selling at last week's craft fair at all. still sound fair and legit?

Shouldn't she have had all the orders that weren't fulfilled in a list already? Shouldn't she have had that list BACK when she first got the orders and kept note of who was sent their and who wasn't? She's asking for the artists to email her their orders AGAIN? Holly what the fuck are you doing?

I’m kinda over this zine entirely and if I don’t get anything by the end of this month and no responses I will flip shit. She’s irresponsible and I’m sick of stupid kids who have no organizational skills running zines.

holly’s entitled to her opinions, i suppose, but that doesn’t mean we can’t call her out for how fucking stupid she sounds. not to be that person, but her uneducated southern white roots really show when she tries to discuss anything about culture. i come from white trash too, but i don’t pretend that slave owners were in any way justified in what they did. i think that would be obvious to anyone who had even the most rudimentary glossing over of the history of black slavery. but whatever, if it doesn’t affect Holly, then it doesn’t matter, right? just like how she doesn’t want to be anywhere near lgbt protests or even live in a state where there’s a strong leaning towards a different political party than the one she aligns herself with.
No. 682184
>>681974I’ve JUST started watching it and she’s already saying crap to excuse her poor writing skills.
Holly, you NEED to be able to summarise your comic, being complicated and all the details don’t matter. You need to be able to tell people what’s happening, if you can’t do this it’s because provably you only have a vague idea, some scenes you want to draw and you know you want x characters. That’s not a story.

>>682396Like I understand dark themes like rape and slavery depending on the world and the character it can build a lot but when it’s every. Fucking. Thing. She. Makes.
It’s like she doesn’t understand why rape, molestation and slavery are serious topics and need to be treated seriously, if she just wants to make fucking fetish porn she needs to get fucking educated real fast because BDSM and kink doesn’t = rape comics till the end of time
No. 682401
>>682400making assumptions here, but i think holly's definition of "rape" is rather narrow, as well, therefore she doesn't see the problems in her stuff. aside from purgatory, where (i assume) it was meant to be disgusting, she has this idea that there's nothing wrong with coercing and manipulating a person into sex, when clearly, there is.
again, i am making assumptions here. but judging from her general attitude to "sjw shit", i wouldn't put it past her to not see the issue with a huge imbalance of power in a romantic relationship.
No. 682409
>>682401I don't think that's such a leap to reason. I'd even reason that it's probably a fetish of hers, but she doesn't explore that in her art in a constructive way.
Not here to armchair, but these are recurring themes in her projects. Even Clever Kitchen had aspects of it in just the way she designed the main kid…
I think she needs to be honest with herself about Paranormal Plague, because it's going at a snail's pace, nobody knows what it's about still, but oh, we sure do know what the sex lives of Herschel and Reese are like, so obviously we know where her priorities are.
No. 682426
>>682414That’s the thing, I don’t think Holly has ever been in a relationship before let alone a sexual one. I almost honk she’s too afraid to watch normal porn and just stick to cartoon porn so she can more easily insert herself into the scenario seeing as she obviously doesn’t know what sex looks like, sounds like (trust trust) or feels like.
She really needs to go out and get a fuck buddy and a few friends to get all that pent up anger and sexual aggression
No. 682463
>>682437This is true. It helps with natural dialogue and expressions too. You gotta socialize to an extent if it isn't coming to you innately.
Also. I can't wait for her shitty writing in the slavery comic that explains the slavery as part of the elves culture. I have a feeling it'll be at least a little milky

I think it would honestly be less dumb if she owned up to what she was doing and just said, "these comics are about rape, rape is my fetish," instead of this retarded beating around the bush.
No. 682475
>>682400Holly doesn't make comics about BDSM, or even gay porn. It's a fantasy generally detached from reality and I see this attitude with a lot of Fujos that being a creepy rapist is somehow cute/romantic/acceptable. I don't think she actually sees it as rape because none of her gay characters are fleshed out human beings.
I think making NSFW comics is a bad move for her because the only reason she can get away with it is because BL standards are below the surface of the earth, and most of her fans are 15 (physically or mentally).

I was considering buying that elf rape comic when it comes out just to see how bad it is and to share, but after seeing how she's been handling people's private information (uploading it to a doc for a lot of people to see, letting addresses slip uncensored in videos, etc) I wouldn't trust her to keep any personal info safe.

nitpicking a lil here; it wouldn’t sound so weird if it wasn’t for the fact that she begs for money all the time. lots of ppl have shit happen out of nowhere and thus have sales on their online shops in hopes of getting some more traffic immediately. they also mention the reason why, and even if it’s done for sympathy points, it’s alright bc it’s not like they do that all the fucking time (unlike holly) and complain about getting orders. i’ve never heard an artist complain about packaging stuff that ppl have bought from them before Holly. She shits on fast food and other minimum wage jobs, yet she also whines about having an online store. well, what the fuck do you want to do to make money, BRown?

No. 682911
>>682392>>682396>>682400>>…Everyone is speculating on whether Holly has a rape fetish or not, but she definitely does. When killing/stalking (an unabashed rape fetish yaoi) was popular she was blogging about it CONSTANTLY and heavily identified with finding bdsm/noncon appealing. This was around the time when she inserted the rape scene into Purgatory, too, and the way she spoke about it in vlogs/live streams before it was published (now deleted/unlisted) made it clear that she was getting off on it. Her justification for why she included it in the comic kept changing as people realized it was kind of fucked up. Anyway. Holly was very public about getting off to killing/stalking and to rape/noncon in general and as much as she tries to scrub her image clear now, it's obvious that all the rape in her stories is completely intentional and for her own arousal.
All said, I don't think Holly identifies as someone who likes "real rape" and would probably defend herself against those accusations even though the stuff she writes is undeniably rape. I think she believes that her stuff is not "real rape" because she always justifies it by having the characters actually like it or give dubious consent after the fact or fall in love so it's all okay. Or make up stupid fucking elf slave universes to justify rape. The end result is the same, she's a shitty fujo with a rape fetish who wants to have her cake and eat it too.
like the porn is one thing but it's disgusting that she can't not let her fetishes seep into her sfw works and that's why people call her a fujo
sage for blogposting but at this point it's pretty much beyond debate imho
No. 682997
>>682925Not to mention the fujo crowd seems to be very large so she definitely has a market, unfortunately. It doesn't matter how shitty her characters, stories or art is, really. What matters are the archetypes and hitting all those same notes that make up those same stories that she can get away with peddling to the same crowd.
The only hope is that maybe a chunk of her current crowd will be alienated and turned off from the themes that are becoming more and more pervasive.
And that she'll just lean entirely into the NSFW bullshit and leave YouTube because she can't post dicks there. She's been doing the "whoops can't show that cause it's got dicks in it" shtick more often and I guess that's just gonna be her little gimmick from here on out.
It all makes for good milk I suppose but personally speaking, I just want her to stop altogether,or get called out on. But whatever, dumpster fire is cool too. For when you're bored.

her 'can't relate to female characters bc they're garbage' thing really pissed me off for the same reason. but it's holly. she doesn't get that, instead of changing and adapting the way your own media portrays women, she'll rather stick with what mainstream media has taught her. tinfoiling here, but i think her misogyny is so deeply ingrained that thinking of three dimensional female characters for her pieces is basically impossible.

>>684112You're probably right, although she could probably manage a friendship with a dude if only for a little while, if she chose someone who is at a similar… Social level? I'm probably being way too harsh with all this, it's pretty interesting though. This might not be representative of how she handles all male interaction, but the part of the livestream where Michie's husband joins them made it seem like she was extremely nervous for no real reason at all.
I agree with you on the second part as well, and it's not really tinfoiling at this point, it's not exactly subtle. She definitely can't fully grasp the difference between real and fictional women, which is funny because she accuses other people of that all the time, oh well.

she has no idea how emotional dependance and manipulation and coercion can fuck you up and over.

i can’t even begin to get into how baffling her views on rape and sexual assault are. it would take a long essay/rant, and i don’t have the motivation to write that, not to mention that she would never comprehend any of it if she read it or even learn to tolerate a person’s opinion that differs from her own. the kind of message she’s sending to young teens about this, some who could be csa survivors or currently experiencing a situation like that…how can she not think it’s cruel to make people feel guilty for something that is in no way their fault??? i used to have some sympathy for her, but not after this. she has no idea how the real world works.

>>684660i heard her say something along the lines of "so many bitches are claiming rape because they don't want to admit they liked it"
this is such a harmful thing to say especially towards girls in abusive relationships and minors in harmful relationships. holly is extremely unprofessional in that she even talks about these things on her public account. she's lucky she's not actually notable as an artist so there would be no significant backlash but it still matters because most of her audience is minors!

Is this person losing their sight? Cause fuck no her art has not gotten any better its gotten more stiff and wonky if anything

Nah she she hopes that everyone forgets about her doomed projects. And clearly its works for some of them.
No. 685083
>>684973I feel like she's going to burn herself out if she keeps on churning out a lot of stuff for her different planned projects, and doing so would likely affect the quality of her art even more.
>>685070>That earned me a block from her twitter and harassment from her followers.Wow. What a way to respond, Holly, to someone who's trying to help you?
Also I'm pretty sure the quality of her art would go down if she keeps doing that.
And it's funny bc I considered subscribing to her a few years ago when she once posted her Rendr sketchbooks bc I thought she had potential and seeing her art now? She barely improved. Not to mention the evidences shown in the threads she's cheated in her online assignments that one anon shared and that other time she literally traced a life study?
Holly, for once keeping yourself stressed is not going to help you improve. Also, please think twice before doing anything stupid like putting your nsfw comic in a con where kids would see it, or adding rape elements and whatnot to your story bc I am sure you're going to mishandle this kind of content if you're going to add those elements in a story (I saw the nsfw comic from the last thread and that made me angry). Not to mention the way she said/write about rape in general would influence viewers into thinking about those kinds of content.
No. 685160
>>685155Sorry if it seemed that way. When I type something long I'm just too lazy to proofread what I typed.
What I meant was her art was pretty low quality to begin with (even with all those art materials that other people couldn't afford). It'd go even lower when she keeps doing it to herself. Her attitude towards making art isn't helping her improve.
So uhm:
>Bad work ethic>Doesn't take online art classes seriously>Blocking people just for giving her advice>No common sense to hide her nsfw comic>Doesn't bother censoring names and addresses of artists/ppl who bought her stuff>Doesn't think before spewing out garbage opinions on rape and other heavy topicsWhat's next?
No. 685240
>>685160Are we taking bets? In that case I'm betting on her using a strawman of epic proportions if she ever faces any real backlash for being a rape apologist. "um…like idk they're literally calling me a Hilter rapist idk
burp"

>>685281One anon saved the video apparently so if they upload it somewhere it can be downloaded by any anon to be used. Hell if someone has a discord they can use as a throwaway and anons could make the video while still being anon (if they change their handles i guess)
So far the only ones I like out of the Da rant comm is Brooke (PonderSproket) but even then she's got alot of qualities like Holly, she's just more upfront and mature to situations I've noticed, anyone else is there to make fun or are 13 so they wont do much.
I'm guessing anyone out of the rant comm's on youtube are shit and wont do the job we want them too, and wont get the views to really do anything to change Holly.
The idiot doesn't need a exposed video, she needs someone to point by point flat the fuck tell her why she's a fucking degenerate moron and how she needs to change it.
>"they likes it anyway idk"fuck you Holly, you dumb fucking vile cunt, Who actually WANTS to be violated LIKE THAT and be left to think "the person Im with doesnt care about my wellbeing and would take this from me if I refuse" Who wants to be left in such a horrible and lonely and violated place and have someone tell them "lol you liked it anyway idk it wasnt rape you didnt even fight back" She doesn't think about anything before she opens that neanderthal mouth of hers does she? Like her NEET/incel shows so hard now it's sad

However, she does need a callout post on tumblr or SOMETHING. Instead of editing an entire video together on some throwaway acct, it's just easier to make a new blog and make the post then share that around. Even if the acct has no followers, it'd be there when someone goes to look her up.
No. 685342
>>685330you got a point, but she does need a wake up call of some sort, or at least, her followers do. She's got "Scam Artist" and "Manipulative Liar" under her belt. if you've been here for any amount of time, you know she's got certain habits and patterns that generally put a dour on the art community. peddling half-assed smut and spouting heavy topics out her ass to impressionable edgy teens isn't exactly a good look either.
The most we could hope for is that she burns herself out, or people just outgrow her and get tired of her bullshit. But there's always new people coming around to champion how 'outspoken' and 'real' she is, and, maybe those kinds of folks just need to figure it out, sooner rather than later, that she isn't all that she's cracked up to be.
FWIW, she IS hitting a low point and I think the zine fiasco, coupled with the abysmal results of SanJapan were serious blows to her ego, so there's that. Didn't know she was losing patrons though.

>>685644i'm not sure anything could fix her face. caring for her hair properly would be a start, and some tastefully applied makeup (nothing heavy because her eyes are so tiny, i can't imagine how bad she would look if she tried contour either). wax the brows. i guess that's really it. anything drastic would only emphasize how potatoey she looks.
i would love to see holly with a proper makeover, though.

>>685766lol BRown, wonder why manga is so cheap in the US compared to western comics? it couldn’t possibly have anything to do with how overworked mangaka are and how the industry treats them like garbage. I will admit, I don’t read many western comics for some of the same reasons as she does, but…does she not realize it’s not all just superheroes? Yeah, Marvel and DC are the most popular companies by a wide margin, but there’s TONS of other stuff out there. AND lots of series have volumes available for a decent price as well as not having multiple side stories and shit that may be annoying to some readers.
Another thing; those crappy 6 expressions she did are the same ones she reuses all the time lmao. the “:3” face is probably the worst. And the way she handwrites is still fucking illegible. It’s like she moves her letters up and down so lowercase letters sometimes look like they should be uppercase and vice versa?? like the “LoveLy” in the bottom right. Either she can’t write without composition lines, or she needs to stop writing sideways (or both). Pretty much everything she handwrites is tilted slightly for some reason.
No. 685791
>>685777Western comic artists are also overworked and treated like garbage. Comic artists are notoriously underpaid and it's very hard to make a living.
Still, Holly seems to think Marvel/DC and manga are the only options out there, which is such obvious bs.

She’s a super opinionated piece of work
