Holly BRown is a bad artist, YouTuber, webcomic author, and fujoshi popular with edgy children for her "no bullshit" attitude despite not accepting any criticism.
She believes she's known for two webcomics:
Purgatory, her oldest and worst comic, about two gay teens in a cult with lots of rape:
https://tapas.io/series/PurgatoryParanormal Plague, whose most-drawn character hasn't been introduced, with rape DLC:
https://tapas.io/series/ParanormalplagueShe also wrote Chroma Prince, a Patreon-only NSFW yaoi comic about alien sex slaves. She only did 4 pages before shutting down her Patreon:

She's actually most known for ranting about the CalArts admissions process being unfair even though she was DEFINITELY accepted:

>"I'm surprised I'm not known as the complainer one" She really is… It's just really tragic, honestly, to see how she's spiralling. She seems to truly believe that she's overqualified for all these minimum wage part time jobs. She even says how she'll show up to work, after getting fired from Amazon and quitting a graphic design job super quickly. Clearly she's not got a good track record.

Here's the overview on her Patreon:
>I've tried making a consistent living through art for years, doing multiple things, failing multiple times. So I wanted to create this patreon to simplify my goals and to show people exclusive content.
I mean… good for her for being honest about her fuck-ups I guess? But it'll also scare away a lot of potential patrons if she tells them up front that she has a history of fucking up constantly.

Jesus Christ, her patreon is such a trainwreck, it's all about how SHE'LL be stable and happy and fulfilled. Patreon isn't a cash cow to satisfy your needs, it's not about what YOU get out of it Holly, it's about what you can offer to those who support you. It's so obvious this is another half assed thing, there's no structure whatsoever in her tiers, for 10 dollars she'll mail you a random sketch?? When she reaches 550 a month sh'll have her car payments covered?? I don't care about this as a possible buyer,it makes people feel like they have an obligation to support you because you're struggling and patreon isn't about that, if people are going to pay a monthly fee, they better well get their money's worth, not pay you out of pity so you don't have to work a job like everyone else.

It all comes around. At the beginning of the HB saga Holly was making sketch books and selling them. In terms of Holly making money with her skills this was pretty successful. Now she’s back at it and I don’t understand how Holly thinks anyone would want to buy this. I don’t doubt that some of them will sell but it’s just so hard to see Holly waste so much time and money.

New Patreon Overview:
>I have been having a lot of people tell me that I should try patreon again, I've tried before and it didn't work out as well as I had hoped because I had put too much expectation on it and I've never really made one just for my YouTube channel, just my comics. So I decided comics are something I do on my own, but since most my audience is YouTube it does make more sense to make this for my channel. I will post a bunch of stuff on here, sketches, doodles, ( a private discord) and early access videos, and when you're a patron you can be apart of polls to decide future videos and challenges.
For a while I've kinda avoided doing things in fear people will be mad at me or think I'm a sellout, but patreon is completely optional and a service I want to provide for people who like me and want to support me, not a requirement. The support will make it possible for me to function and also produce a lot of art, content and products, and hopefully financially and mentally stable in the future. Thanks so much for being a patron, I will post as frequently as possible, and link any time I'm going live on youtube.
No. 843951
>>843888She mentioned the foot fetish account on her latest stream, she was surprised/mad that it only got 2 likes and said that she wasn’t going to use it again. I think this is a new record of how long it took for her to abandon yet another get rich quick scheme again.
She should really just stop with the schemes because this one is the most embarrassing. And I really don’t want to know how she could go lower after this.

>>843908Really minor nitpick but it really

She's already shown she's willing to toss a lot of money into new business ventures too.

No. 844072
>>844060Too much effort. Don't you know how incredibly stressful it is to pull levers and move small stacks of paper from the hole puncher to a table. I feel exhausted just typing about it. /s
In all seriousness, anything that requires being responsible is too much for her. She needs some professional counseling because eventually, her family are going to start demanding she pull her own weight around the house. As she currently is, that might legitimately cause her to have a mental breakdown. She isn't prepared for the real world the way she is.

No. 844104
>>844076She’s just running from her problems instead of solving the root cause. Nothing we haven’t seen before. If by some miracle she’s able to move out I wonder how long it’ll take before she’s served her eviction notice. I guess it depends on how nice/sympathetic her landlord is.
>>844088I doubt she’d be able to dive into that not only because her concerns are horribly skewed but more so because human interaction makes her so uncomfortable and for all her talk she couldn’t handle the sexual comments. She might think she’ll feel safer behind a screen hence the cam girl talk but she’s way too thin skinned.
No. 844183
>>843916Tbh I thought the colour was the worst thing about it, since its food related maybe a soft cream colour since there's sushi, milk, and onigiri so the colour would work if its closer to white
Like why would you want a bright purple pizza, that is the most in appetizing colour for pizza and fries and fucking milk
Whats wrong with hollys eyes
Also the foods aren't even fully related
The fries and pizza would work well with pop and burgers
The sushi would go well with other Japanese foods and drinks and if she wanted she could do a third one for movie snacks like popcorn soda and candy bars
Like she could have actually made cohesive themed sketch books that would have actually been cute had she thought things out ad took the time to make things match and make sense
Sorry for the rant it just annoys me so much seeing all her mistakes when a solution with an outcome of many products would be really simple

No. 844891
>>844888Yeah thats true that she had a reason to shave it, but she still did it in a very sporadic way that definently makes the viewer watching it think shes unstable
Shes definently distressed at the moment so anything could set off a break down, hopefully she'll be able to get some help before she she ends up doing something detrimental to her safety
Like I know she's done alot of shitty things but watching her spiral into such manic states is pretty concerning
No. 844902
>>844787She's talking about cutting again.
She cut her hair for no good reason, said she doesn't regret it and then two days later starts spending money on wigs.
Complains that she has no money and then makes sudden hugely expensive purchases that she's obsessed about for a while and then loses interest.
Apparently has panic attacks working a normal 9-5. Not just doesn't enjoy it like many don't but actually wanting to do anything to get away from there including self harm.
Says that the only thing that worries her about sex work is getting arrested. Not her health or safety. She said she literally does not care about that.
Some of this could be explained by poor judgement or just her being over dramatic and making excuses but when you put it all together it doesn't exactly paint a healthy picture.
No. 844920
>>844914If you're not in the middle of an active psychotic break you're "not that unstable" I guess.
Her history with self-harm and desire to continue it is more than enough to be alarming, even if you ignore how far she's fallen in the last year. She is incredibly self-destructive. She might not be at the point where she should go inpatient (unless she does self-harm again) but that doesn't mean she's well.

You don't usually see people making fan art for characters they know nothing about or don't care about lmao.
Plus, holly HAS made fan art in the past that she seemed to at least like making and that wasn't for sale. At least, I vaguely remember that she's done sketches of various characters from shows and a couple crappy pieces just for fun.

>>845555TD is the worst example to follow she’s a joke she spends so much time complaining about how hard her life is and all her mental illness meanwhile her entire adult life she’s freeloaded barely worked and claims she can’t work because [insert mental illness here] so she couch surfed until she met her now husband who’s job pays for her rent, but somehow going to AX every year was top priority.
As for the laser breaking being suspicious, I actually thought so too but not for getting money back, it’s an excuse to not fill her Etsy orders until after San Japan. Maybe she can’t afford materials so she’s prioritizing San Japan merch. This gives her the perfect excuse to hold orders until after the con. Plus she still has to make keychains for her Kickstarter backers.

I dont really get why she keeps making these. Nobody wants them. She is wasting wood, time and money. Only Purgatory fans would buy those, but they are just a bunch of kids who only like her comic because they don’t understand how bad it is. And im pretty sure they wont buy it. She really has the chance to make something actually relevant with this goddamn laser and make some money but she just delusionally keeps making these
No. 845829
>>845824Same.
I thought the main appeal of merch like this is to make you as a fan visible to other potential fans.
Doesn't serve much purpose if the comic has a very small following and the characters or style aren't especially memorable in any real way.
The stickers aren't particularly cute in a decorative sense either so it's not like a non-fan would find them appealing.
Surely stickers of food - similar to the designs she's shown before - would be much more popular. But I guess there's a lot more competition for that sort of stuff.

Little late to ask, but that part about the tube on her laser printer exploding sounded…uhh… pretty dangerous? Dunno what kind of shit is in those, assuming it probably has glass that could have exploded into tiny sharp fragments. I hope she cleaned up the mess somewhat and kept her animals away from it.

Out of all the absolute garbage merch she makes, I actually like this? If I saw it in an AA, I might actually stop and look at it. All the other sketchbook covers are shitty and there's one shown in a video with the same cutout feature but they're just weird cut outs of mouths and shit… it looks fucking stupid and is poorly put together like everything else she makes.
A lot of the artists I follow will even put up polls to ask what fanart they want to see them sell/is the most popular at the moment because that shit sells. I wish Holly would realize that it isn't selling out- it's just business. You need money to pay bills, put a roof over your head, and food in front of you- even if that means selling art of some popular series that you think is absolute trash but people will buy. Hell, I've bought some sort shitty art pieces in an AA just because I loved the series so much- Holly might be able to skate on by with her shit tier art by series popularity alone.

Just because it may be interesting - based on Socialblade she earns practically nothing with YouTube at this point. The "real" sum is usually somewhere between the lowest and highest. Not to mention that she hasn't even a quarter of her original following of her first channel back. So YT is definatelay no option for income anymore.
No. 847643
>>847632So assuming she gets the highest a month of $160, add the $22 she gets from patreon, she (if she's lucky) makes about $188 a month, lowest is $38. Adding on what she sells on Etsy, kinda hard to estimate but probably around $150-200 a month.
There is no way she is ever gonna be able to afford to move out with that amount of money. A bunch of that will have to go onto her car. Cons clearly don't work for her either. I get she doesn't want to work cause of mental health, but there is no feasible way she can live on that much money.
No. 847663
>>847632I work in yotuber relations, so i can provide more of a breakdown. For ever 1k view holly gets, she gets one dollar. If she has multiple ads on a video, like one ever 3 minutes, she get 3 dollars per 1k views. From what I've seen, she just let's YouTube auto place ads, so shes earning one dollar per 1 k view. This doesnt include any revenue her fans can give her during streams, but we usually recommend youtubers dont stream because most people dont watch those. A YouTuber who can get 24 thousand people to watch a video is going to get less then 1k people on the stream, and they most likely won't donate. Streams lose you more money because business' who want to work with you will see your average views per video drop significantly.
With my metric, I've determined that holly made less than 30 dollars last month, give or take. She might have earned a couple dollars streaming, but shes not making any money from YouTube
No. 847664

>>848086Ngl, that Simon on the bottom right looks really good to me, aside from the tiny detail where the end of his glasses is hiding behind his ear (though i`m 90% certain it's a traced head). Damian looks as awful as usual, but Simon would have a good hairstyle if there wasn't a giant lock of hair randomly hanging over the middle of his face. There are aspects of this that I tolerate more than the original at least.
I can sort of see how these re-draws could be considered "improvements", what with the somewhat cleaner lines and the fact that Damian isn't wearing fucking booty shorts anymore, but like other anons have said, there are still some huge issues that Holly should have fixed before ever considering re-drawing the comic, both with her drawing skills and with the story itself. Not to mention that it was right near the conclusion anyways, wasn't it? That'd be like a mangaka suddenly stopping at the next to last volume of a series and saying, "Oh geez, guys, I know the manga's almost over, but I've decided to re-draw the entire thing now that I've improved my skillz!!"

>>848372Not to veer completely off topic, but it isn't the first time I've seen a webcomic artist purge their entire webcomic only to start posting the remake. It's irritating because it can take years to get to a climax or to a plot point, only to have it just… deleted. Agents of the Realm did that, but it's not like the artist improved drastically between the remake and the original, and she did it right after finishing volume 2. So it's just extra faff for no story!
Okay that's a stupid rant. Anyway it's just really dumb to remake and purge a comic to repost it, because then people are forced to read the whole god damned thing against instead of reach the conclusion.

Now all she does is make half-assed merch and comic pages she doesn't bother grey shading or fully completing, both story wise and in the inks.
It doesn't even matter that her art looks slightly better now (at least with Simon and the chins), because she can't be bothered to use that skill at all.

>>849167This isn't as bad as some of her other spelling/grammar mistakes, but

Plus the lack of apostrophe with "damians safe". These aren't major issues in casual discussion, but here it just looks unprofessional and rushed. Which pretty much describes her "style" nowadays.

That laser cutter really fucked her up.

That's where she tends to fuck up, she seems to think that her marketing towards other artists is where her audience is at but the reality is, other artists don't really like her, no one respectable anyway. The only people eating up what she's doing are teenagers and teenagers are broke, for the most part. She needs to rearrange her entire strategy but she's terrible at it.

It's frustrating that Holly's super close to recognizing that making these pants is a huge waste of time, but she doesn't even care.
No. 851346
>>851331Please tell me she's not painting this in the hopes of selling it. I thought she was just doing it for fun since she would be wearing the pants and that would, y'know, make sense.
Aside from how shitty it is, she'd have to buy and paint on a lot of different sized jeans in order to sell many and have a decent sizing chart available on her shop and just. Ugh. Niche isn't necessarily a bad thing when it comes to products, but Holly honestly thinks she can sell stuff that no one in their right mind would ever want. How does she come to these conclusions? I know she's basically copied other people's etsy listings before (the ouija board keychain idea and something else recently), and that she jumps on trends way too late, but still. (Like this painting on pants` pockets thing. It's not new and anyone can find a pic online to copy and do it themselves at home.)
No. 851350

Nobody asked for a laser business. Nobody asked for wonky stickers and ugly Copic stands. No one asked for garish prints. And yet, there she is, peddling shit no one ever asked for. You have to meet your audience half way for what they like and what you like, and then you have to divide it down further into what they'd actually be willing to buy off you VS some other chucklefuck.
But she's too lazy to do any of that.

At least the crowd of people is better than last time. Is it great? No, but she actually put some detail into them when I think they were just faceless blobs last time (and crowd pics usually don't have a ton of detail anyways, unless it's an illustration like a where's Waldo or something).

It's a bit of a hodge podge of existing religions, which is totally fine–BUT Holly doesn't integrate different religions together and fill in the gaps to create her own so that it's believable. She just takes random elements/imagery of Catholicism, Baptists, Judaism, even fraternity orders (the random fez?), and religious cliches floating around in her brain and mashes them together in the most random ways possible. And with little worldbuilding to explain any of it, it hard to get a feel for it as an established religion.

Here's the listing for the Vaporwave pants on Holly's Etsy. It says the pockets are painted with acrylic. I guess that means it won't wash out, but I think it would have been better to use fabric paint since from my experience using a lot of acrylic paint on fabric makes the painted area super stiff.

>>852416I didn't say there was anything wrong with that, although I can see how what I said could be misunderstood. Apparel isn't an easy thing to push as an artist unless you plan on going to a print shop for it. Even then, keeping track of stuff like details, colors and different sizes are all factors. This seems like a one-off "let's see if this works" thing rather than something planned, like a lot of the bullshit she makes. She wastes a lot of time trying so hard to think outside the box that she doesn't consider what remaining audience she has left, and what they might want to see let alone buy.
But secondhand pants with a sloppy painting on the pockets? That's not it.
But even so, I wouldn't even be surprised if they sold/she lies about selling them.

>>852464I think she
might've had a better shot at this if she chose to paint the pockets on pocket tees. Not saying anyone in her audience or even random con goers would like it anymore than the pants, but if I was a random con goer who liked that shit, I'd be a lot more open to buying a baggy shirt than baggy pants. At least you can style baggy shirts.
But of course she didn't think of that and just wanted to waste con prep time using old thrifted pants she had.
No. 852520
>>852376Honestly, she probably would have had a better chance making money if she just made iron on patches.
If she just took care of her printer from last year then she could have easily printed digital designs onto fabric and cut them out either by hand or using her cricut that she sold for no reason
People buy patches all the time, its alot easier to find an already fitting/comfortable clothing piece that the customer already has and ironing on a little design onto it then it is for someone to just buy a pair of over priced pants that will only fit a percentage of her audience who even consider to buy her art
Holly please, just make patches and stickers where you could make some of your money back rather than trying to do weird stuff that might not even end up selling

>>852472I wonder if she's painting the jeans as stock to sell, or as examples so that people could potentially order from her.
Selling this type of thing seems like it'd be very difficult. You have to strike lucky with your audience and hope that both the style and size suits is what they're looking for.
I also personally wouldn't want to sink $60 on something I can't even be sure fits well or is comfortable (and I don't know how Etsy's refund policy works).
Patches seem a lot more versatile. Even painting to-order seems like it'd be a better investment of her time.

Guys have tapered waist where typically the shoulders are wider and tapers down in a triangle with their hips being the smallest
Women have the hips usually just as wide as the shoulders or slightly smaller or slightly wider where the waist tapers inwards creating the feminin shape
If she wants to make Reese have a more masculine body shape without taking away from him thin figure all she has to do is make his shoulders a lityle wider amd his hips a little more tapered in
She doesnt have to change his face shape, she doesnt need to do add muscles, she just needs to chnage the bone structure

Shaming poor and struggling ppl for buying an occasional “luxury”/item that’s not absolutely necessary is a shitty thing to do, no doubt, but Holly does this every other day and then complains about her finances while being a NEET, so I feel no shame in judging her spending habits, as if any of us ever have on these threads lol.

She hides behind her screen, deleting everything at the slightest hint of conflict, and can't even be assed to respond to people paying her for her stuff. If she went outside, got a real job in a physical location, made some irl friends, got a boyfriend, and socialized with people in real life in general, I think she would see that all her issues are from her own isolation.
As for her art, idk man, but I think her shitty work ethic and skills are stemming at least somewhat from her shitty attitude, so if that changed maybe the art would get better? It's hard to say. Honestly, I think it's more likely for her to drop art entirely than her becoming some sort of great artist. She always seems to hate making it

Holly should probably remove the college tidbit on her Etsy bio because people think it’s because of her “studying hard” and “working tirelessly” that items are shipping late or not at all. Besides the caps another anon posted of the reviews on her shop, I dug through them and there’s a LOT of people mentioning extremely late orders, her being non responsive or just not shipping them at all. If Holly wasn’t such a money grubbing gremlin, I’d suggest she just close the shop indefinitely or until she can get her shit together… which will be never at the rate she’s going.

is…is it just me or did none of those pages have any spelling or grammar mistakes? i thought for sure she would mess up on certain words, but i don’t think there were any. wow.
>>857950see, that’s the thing. holly has little patience for things that aren’t immediately fun. we’ve gone over this again and again, and it’s getting sad by this point. she supposedly has a driver’s license and she’s tried out a couple of jobs, but she hasn’t stuck w/ them for more than a couple weeks. most people give a job a month at the very least, enough time to see if you can adjust to the routine and the workplace, and then put in your notice if it’s not working out. she’s def one of those ppl who would benefit more from doing art as a hobby rather than a job, but she also doesn’t really have any passions besides drawing, and she equates fulfillment only with passion and not hard work. (as in, some ppl may not LOVE their job, but can still feel good after a day of working hard, especially if they’re helping other ppl. not so for holly.)
No. 858060
>>857928>>857954Yeah the IIV stuck out to me immediately. At first I thought… ok maybe she just made the "I" thick for some reason but it looks dumb, but then I realized there already was a book with "IV" in the background.
And you are correct that roman numerals are only preceded like that if it's a difference of one. So it should be III.
This is wholly different from her weirdass misspellings. She had to draw that so it was deliberate. What I wonder is why the hell she'd USE roman numerals when she is unaware of how to write FOUR in them.
Naturally she didn't do some very basic research just to make sure.
>>858014Agree. Also it's worth emphasizing that being late is far more understandable than being unresponsive (mainly in addition to lateness as she should be more aware of the situation and pending orders). Maybe she's stressed and is trying to put it out of her mind entirely, avoiding it. In which case she really needs to close, just for starters on the long list of things she should do
for her own benefit.

And I mean sure girl with masculine traits exists but that’s not what she was going for AND both the hairstyle and clothes are particularly ugly. Just like in her business, she doesn’t THINK about what’s best, she always cares about what she thinks is good based on her limited view of the world.

>>859768Art anons who sell at cons, do you find art of OCs (like some of Holly's stuff) sells well enough to profit off of, or is it mainly just fanart that sells?
No. 859859
>>859855If you're in a convention that allows fanart, the fanart sells well for sure. In England, the big conventions have a section which is only for indie comics, i.e. original work. Because of that, the likelihood of people buying original comics is higher. But that's because they judge based on the art and how much they want it rather than on their fave being drawn.
that being said… we all know fanart sells. Most people only just about make table on original work, but it's less about making huge profits and more about exposure and reaching a larger audience in conventions if you want to sell originals.
No. 859887
>>859855In my experience they sell well at comic cons, which started with indie comics in mind and originals are encouraged and valued more to this day. Anime conventions began in Japan, with fan art being what was mostly sold. Companies in Japan are okay with this as they see it as free advisement as long as it is art and not mass produced merchandise. In America most congoers go expecting fan art to celebrate fandom which is likely why they are at the con in the first place vs comic cons which are to celebrate comics themselves.
That being said I have sold at both and Holly isn't going to make much money. I've actually had the thought that she should consider trying a comic Con but she's pretty mediocre so idk if she'd make much more without her teen fan base.

>>860261It's true that Holly doesn't have to like video games but the games industry is pretty profitable for artist. If Holly had stronger skills in graphic design and knew a game engine, she could find a UI job. It's just sad to see an artist with some potential not have a dependant income at her age.
She's so desperate for income I wouldn't be surprised if Holly reconsidered a job in the games industry. I mean Holly lives in Texas. There's like 3 game companies there.
No. 860329
>>860287Yeah, no, it's pretty hard to get your first job in the industry (speaking from experience), especially without a University-based internship to get you off to an acceptable start and Holly is too lazy to even work for friggin Amazon or as a clerk, so of course she shouldn't even consider video games. Her technical skills are sub-par for UI (she can't even center her own "company" logo, for fucks), let's not even get started with Concept Art.
Working for a game studio is extremely different from working as a freelancer at home, competition is hard as hell and you have to be at the top of your game OR have some experience under your belt to even get you in there. She wouldn't even pass a mandatory art test for any studio (usually you get a very straight-forward but time-consuming task and about 48 hours to make the best of it).
While it may be a profitable solution I'm sure she couldn't even be bothered to write enough applications or make an acceptable resumée.
No. 860362
>>860329Anon, I understand that might be your experience but in generalities, the game's industry isn't as
toxic as you make it seem. I've been in and around indie studios, mobile, and even triple A and the teams that are assembled there aren't as competitive as you say since they have to work together as a team to finish the product.
Thus, it wouldn't be a good environment for Holly since she has a problem with "Melvins".
I agree that Holly's resume and website aren't what is required by a studio to get hired but I've met some studio team members with what less than desirable skills. Usually wanna be hybrids. I'm just saying that someone might see something in a artist that resonates with their project. You'd be surprised.

I honestly don’t know why she was freaking out so much over having to make product when she knew she was going to have half a table to fill. It’s not like she needed a lot but she complains about doing the bare minimum for anything. I also have the feeling she won’t interact with attendees and just hide behind the table again.

Here’s a better picture of the booth at San Japan with Holly also in the picture. Found it on TD’s Twitter. You can see some things a bit better and even the commission info. I also notice the original pink kiki painting is now gone. It either got sold (doubt) or she took it down.

i have no doubt that most of holly’s earnings will be from comms. I could see her taking 1 or 2 normally, but as many as she has been? that’s got to be bc she’s not selling anywhere close to what she was hoping.
also, unfortunately I could see someone stupidly buying the $50 Kiki piece what with it being an “original” and framed. it is funny considering how cheap her comms are in comparison tho, and how she’s on an hr time limit for them. is that included inking and shading, bc if so that def explains the “quality”,

onto another issue, I’ve never commissioned someone at a con, what are the usual prices for a 1 character sketch? (whether it’s a bust or full body whatever) bc i can’t wrap my head around why anyone would pay holly $20 for a piece like that when there’s got to be at least 1 other artist at the con who could do a much better sketch for around the same price (and that kaminari isn’t full body). it’s not like holly’s inking or shading skills are anything to boast about.

Also, that “dicking around” comment irked me. If what she meant by that was manning a table for a convention, I’d be pissed. A lot of artists consider selling at a convention work and take it seriously. Not that Holly “I blew all my Kickstarter money on shit and didn’t prepare for the one con a year I do” Brown knows anything about actual hard work.

God, fuck Holly. I was at SJ too. I didn't go up to her table, because why would I? But I did make regular trips past it, and only once did I see her interact with anyone besides the whale sitting next to her. It was for a commission, and she was sooo fucking snippy about it, as if she was doing them a huge favor. "Ok, well I'll see what I can do, I guess." she said in the most obnoxious way when the girl, probably no older than 15, asked her to correct something. She's also a lot uglier in person, and the wig looks like regurgitated AstroTurf.

srsly tho, she can’t take care of hair at all. if she only used decent shampoo/conditioner, she literally wouldn’t have to do anything else w/ hair that short. i guess she wanted tons of wigs when she first buzzed all of it off, but now it looks fine.

That's a lot of unnecessary work and I suspect that right now she's scrambling between thinking about making the rewards and actually sending her shit off to finally print. But in the middle of that is her dicking around with shop merch and scraping for commissions.
We might not see this kickstarter done til MAYBE Christmas, if that.
Also, what she's earning on patreon right now is hilarious. She really had something going last time with her fugly fujo smut. But she ruined that for herself too.

First off, I really don't get why there's a flap of Damian's hair just resting on top of Simon's face when he's kissing him. It looks really weird and dumb. Second, while the old page had Damian making a smug Dreamworks face in the old version when he says "What?", the new version just makes him look like a deranged psycho. At least the smug Dreamworks face was funny. Same goes for Simon's face in the bottom pages. While in the original he had a derpy bored face, now he has a creepy ahegao face in the redraws. While I can still laugh at the old pages for their incompetence, the new ones just weird me out.
Also, what's with Damian's hands being up in the air like that in the new version? jfc
