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:

Unless I somehow blanked on it, there's no English wizard jail besides Azkaban.
If he's in some sort of Death Eater holding cell (seeing as he "failed a mission and was arrested") how tf did those two prance in, and how tf could he be released "on Dumbledore's orders"?

>>957557i think it's fine that the clothes aren't moving, assuming this is a study of how hair moves (which is different to how clothes move). however as a study it needs work.
the hair is separate into three strands, but those three strands all move at the same pace and direction, which is both inaccurate and just confusing from an animator's perspective. either group them together and have the hair move as one wave (if it's all moving at the same pace and on the same path) or have the strands move at different flows, on different paths. you'll see the first approach a lot in disney animation.
the motion is also very fast and violent, which suggests a strong wind. in the case of a strong wind the strands definitely would not move uniformly, they'd be rocketing all over the place, in different directions along a general path (up and to the right in this case).

Dunno if anyone is interested in what she's been up to with the laser the last few days but she's got it working. She's printing weird bags/purses now.

>>982934Basically, she wants to do 'craft' videos about her woodwork but instead of talking about why she enjoys doing stuff with wood, she quickly starts rambling about people being stupid and only wanting crafts they can do in 20 minutes. Says nothing she does ever takes 20 minutes and so people wouldn't watch it, because crafts on youtube are only for kids.
"A lot of crafting videos are meant for the lowest denomination of people who wanna be crafty but they cant do anything creative without an instruction manual"
regardless of if she's right or not, i'm so sick of her attitude.

L -O- fucking- L.
I feel like using the cheap ass Canson Multimedia paper she's so fond of, or Cansons' recycled bristol would be better. At least that has a vellum and a smooth side. Not dissing Canson at all btw, it's decent paper.
Just saying, cardstock is basically thick copy paper in terms of quality, and after shipping it, would be $47 USD (for overseas people) for a 5.5x8.5 sketchbook (with however many pages.)And then it's cheap ass cardstock inside.
Why not just sell the book covers with a printed page of 'how to book bind' inside? Be cheaper, and then people can put whatever they want in it. She'd sell more and make a better profit I'm sure, since she only gets $15 per completed book. Just sell the cover for the $15. Less work, more profit, more sales from people just interested in the wooden cover.

It's pretty telling that she hasn't made any sort of announcement admitting that she won't be completing the project and will be refunding people who did not get their rewards, but will instantly and quietly refund anyone who complains. She's really just trying to keep their money in her pocket for as long as she can get away with it.

If we compare Holly's colored art to her black and white art? yeah. That's obvious. For someone like her with absolutely no grasp of form, shadows, appealing art layouts etc it would be impossible to make a readable BW piece.
It depends on a lot of factors that you need to consider. Is it someone who actually knows what they're doing?
On instagram, which is the topic of the video, putting out the occasional and well done black and white piece draw the eye more and can REALLY show someone's skill level. If you look at these
>>981404 you should be able to tell why Holly doesn't get attention on her BW pieces cause she has no idea how this kind of inking style should work.
It's still not great but you can see the difference I did my best to not alter and fix a lot of anatomy but there were a couple of spots that I edited because it was so off anatomy wise that I had to fiddle to make the shadows work.
No. 988374
>>988363I'm not denying that BW art is gorgeous and masterful. I enjoy BW art as much as color, because I can appreciate the skill that goes into making it read and the forms. Half of my art feed is BW art.
Just saying, that even at the hands of masters, colored art garners more attention on average. Even Kim Jung Gi (who mostly uses traditional black inks in his work, and is famous for it) gets more views on images with color, and color gradients to pop the inks.
Of course, everyone has preferences, but the average viewer skimming their feed prefers colored art, even if it's just a color backdrop to inks, it will get clicked more.
Also, that Bill looks a lot better. Nicely done.

She was planning to move out at the time but wasted her money on tons of bullshit instead of saving up. Let's remember that Holly has gone through multiple assembling and cutting machines for random projects way before the laser.
Plus she's deeply in debt from a degree she didn't finish. I think she could have paid it off if she had been more wise with her money and kept her original channel going but we know how that went.

There's got to be 1000+ fanfics for her pairing, but she's so specific, she'll only read the ones that do it for her, and even then, wants to make her own content. The HP art has been better than her own OCs.
>scratched it out with one hand as fast as possibleTrue, but I'd argue that is more in line with making money asap. All her videos around the time of working on it, she mentioned wanting to make money from it. Whereas her HP stuff, money is an afterthought, and it's better art for it.
Side note: The only reason she's doing that Gamegrumps animation is as an advertisement for her page, to bring in more subs and sell more stuff. She might be lazy and manic, but she's got a decent business mind (when she can stick to it)
No. 1023998
>>1023966Previous emphasis on MANIC in the second last post.
She has ideas and a drive for making money in her own way, outside of the norm of 'getting a job'. She's made a graphic novel; art and story are meh, but it IS made and printed.
She's had at least 2 successful kickstarters (didn't fulfill them all, but it WAS funded). She's tried multiple ways of making money: Comic, printing stickers, badges, keychains, laminating, prints for other artists, things aimed at artists (copic holders), fan art books, the laser business, home decor, farmers market, and branching into other side gigs.
WTF do you call that, besides business? The ideas are all there, she's just manic AF to carry it out, and she goes full tilt on an idea before it's fleshed out.
Making Prints/merch for other artists to sell at cons fails because artists can get that shit cheap from China sites. Then she went to wood, because 'they can't get that from those sites'. Farmers' markets kick in when she realizes nobody wants to pay shipping on wooden stuff, half of which breaks in the mail.
She has the drive, but doesn't think it out all the time. She's got the mind to think of something else to try at least; and not a lot of people can get that far, so I give her kudos there.
If Texas has an art store that isn't Michaels, she should package her copic boxes/art stands to sell there as 'build it yourself'. Locally owned places don't mind sharing shelf place for a small cut of profits. Though… she's probably too much of a snob to set foot in an art store.

Reese as a person has never appeared in the comic though and i wouldn't put it past holly to try and change the plot sort of the way the game of thrones writers did as to like 'outsmart' the fans or whatever. It seems like a stupid thing to do but hollys not really a good writer and in some ways i definitely think parts of her work are meant to shock more than anything else; like how rape/sexual abuse was like a common theme in purgatory and had holly not written that in, the story might've been somewhat better even if its a hell of a lot less intriguing.

>>1023998>She has ideas and a drive for making money in her own way, outside of the norm of 'getting a job'. She's made a graphic novel; art and story are meh, but it IS made and printed. There's a reason why idea guys don't get anywhere. She wasn't scouted by a publishing house and given a contract. She self-published. Anyone can make a graphic novel, but not everyone can make one worth reading. We live in an age where it's easier than ever to get your stuff self-published. Lizbeth Jimenez is a published comic artist with several volumes of her manga out and her stuff is garbage too.
>She's had at least 2 successful kickstarters (didn't fulfill them all, but it WAS funded). She's tried multiple ways of making money: Comic, printing stickers, badges, keychains, laminating, prints for other artists, things aimed at artists (copic holders), fan art books, the laser business, home decor, farmers market, and branching into other side gigs. The fact that she didn't fulfill them makes a world of difference. She's created a reputation for herself built upon not being able to plan or follow through. She's unreliable, and reliability makes a world of difference when it comes to business and maintaining an audience. She also spreads herself way too thin with all these half-baked 'business' ventures for ego rather than hustle. The only thing she want to fulfill is her fantasy of being a yaoi mangaka other fujos make ita bags for.
>WTF do you call that, besides business? The ideas are all there, she's just manic AF to carry it out, and she goes full tilt on an idea before it's fleshed out.Like other anons have said, mental illness. Also, irresponsibility.

If you don't have any business acumen to go along with that drive, then it's useless.

No. 1033930
>>1033569Honestly there was going to be a point where she mellowed out her cowish behavior. Once she hit her peak (tracing drama, zine drama) that was it. She hid/deleted her channel and decided to just go low key for the most part.
Her broken anatomy and bad comics aren't anything out of the ordinary anymore and playing armchair psych was never a fun or good idea.
It was different when she was out at cons peddling her amateur art and shitting on other techniques and mediums only to turn around and make a ton of half baked tutorials. She took a more active role and now she's more passive, probably because now she wants to keep a low profile.
Part of me misses her money making schemes and her $500 art prints with awkward themes and colors.
Maybe her urgency for money isn't as high right now so she's not frantically scrounging for ideas of how to shill (and shilling is actually something she's good at, amazingly her followers will always be that gullible). So we might not see anything too outrageous from her anytime soon, if ever.
I think I'm OK with that, personally.

It's not the worst ita bag design I've seen, but if she added the cat ears and cat face it would immediately look worse. Her cat art already looks bad, but ita bags with designs on the transparent front aren't good because the point of ita bags is to see the pins, not some fabric design hiding the pins

She seemed to have no idea why they wouldn't take her, mentioned that she has been told her art is incredibly stiff and doesn't seem to see it herself. She needs a teacher and a new work space. Her room cannot be good on her mental health, all that mess and I can only imagine the bugs she must have because of her food laying around. Would she even listen to a teacher though? "Maybe for such a big line, you can try getting the movement from the shoulder instead of the wrist." She'd freak. She has the ego of a 15 year old weeb.

>>1042658I mean making ita bags isn’t an awful idea since she sells a bunch of pins but I feel like Holly has never actually used a bag before. These bags are so impractical! Imagine throwing your phone in one and having to hear it jumble along with each step you take! Also I’m pretty sure that thing will bruise your hip from crashing into it all day long.
As for the ita aspect of the bag, the insert seems like it would be a pain to work with. Foam inserts usually are preferred because you can easily change things up without dealing with holes.

I didn't realize this chick is still relevant. I used to be a fan of hers a few years back and looked up her name to see how she's doing these days. Seems she hasn't improved and is still a bad person. I wanted to share what made me stop following her a few years back after having 2 bad experiences with her.
1) I started watching her at the height of her youtube popularity. I thought her being outspoken was refreshing and didn't realize at the time that it wasn't that she was "honest", she was just being an asshole. Anyway, I bought some stuff from her to support her. (Yes, I know I was dumb, hindsight is 20/20. See the screenshot attached for proof). The stickers were just okay, not the highest quality. But the zine was fucking atrocious, and not even worth $5. Full of spelling mistakes and bad anatomy. How can you sell a product and not even run the contents through spellcheck if your spelling is that bad? This left a really bad taste in my mouth and I decided to not order from her ever again, but still watched her videos and streams.
2) I was watching her live stream, and she had a Paypal donation link in the description. I sent her $10 on there which made her phone ping as I guess she had Paypal mobile app installed, and she acknowledged it by saying "who the fuck is blowing up my phone? oh that's just fucking paypal". Like??? I'm literally giving you free money and the best you can do is just curse at me? Not even a "thank you"? She could have thought it was from someone making an order, but still, people are giving you money for your bad quality goods and you cuss them out? I've never felt like such a clown. Then all the stuff about her fetishizing rape and the like came out, and I stopped following her completely. Still disappointed in myself for ever liking this burning trashpile of a person.

>>1180754Well she's no longer relevant, which is interesting to see. I also liked her at the height of her popularity and my friend was a little bit iffy about it. I just thought her traditional inking was neat, and honestly it's what got me to get into traditional inking. But then she got more and more miserable and her art just never improved and it was honestly painful to watch. I thought the same thing, that she was being 'honest' and that was different from other arttubers, but in reality she was just an asshole.
I would love more 'honest' arttubers but I think once a certain shtick sells, they stick to it.

She references the 600 page sketchbook challenge critism in this video and has in past livestreams too because she thinks it's

She was definitely cherry-picking her past antics to play it safe and avoid reminding people that she was responsible for a lot of serious shit like the Kickstarter debacle (which I’m sure she still never fully fulfilled and people who are still subbed to her channel might have been reminded). Not to mention she got rid of her twitter herself, it wasn’t hacked. She constantly deleted posts and blocked anyone who gave her constructive criticism. I’ll give her props for acknowledging that she was
problematic but she conveniently omits these details to make herself seem not as bad as Shannon. Kinda laughed at her “everything is a lie there” bit. I guess because we called her out on her scamming both her Kickstarter and Etsy customers as well as people who participated in her zines, It’s immediately made irrelevant because Shannon manufactured some stupid shit. Doesn’t mean everything that was documented here is now delegitimized.
I guess good for Holly for keeping her head down and doing her thing nowadays, hopefully she sticks to making mediocre art, at least she seems to enjoy it now.

On her livestream she claimed to only know what Shannon has said about her on lolcow by watching youtube videos. She won't ever come to the site or read any posts herself. She then trys piecing together Shannon's posts with hackings, a discord hijack, harrassment and stalking. While doing so she continually reminds her chat that she only knows about the posts youtubers have chosen to read off, not everything, and bumbles around. It's no wonder she has followers contacting her trying to fill her in, she practically baited them to go 'help her' by looking up shit. Which I know is the opposite of what she wanted. She was probably just trying to make her chat think she is less familiar with Lolcow then she really is.

Sage for lack of milk but HB is moving into her own apartment. (pic related : from her Twitter.) I can’t wait to see a walkthrough and how she decorates. I also can’t wait to see how long it takes for it to become a shit hole like her bed room but maybe that won’t happen.

>>1285614Excellent! I do love seeing what Holly did but I'm completely not surprised at how fucked her living situation is.
It's apparent that Holly is sleeping on that shitty Wayfair couch and I don't see that working out in the long term. I get that Holly had to move in haste but she's sleeping in her living room and working in the bed room. I just don't understand why this couldn't be reversed. Holly's not going to have people over so that argument is invalid.
I love that campy ass kitchen decor. Looks like if David Lync threw on a party city 1950s drag queen.

>>1285804I don't think the living room has a window and the laser printer needs one for that exhaust tube. I was thinking the same thing, the bedroom is already so cramped and she'd have much more space in the living room.
I just want to see how long it takes to become trashed. Even less surfaces to sit clutter on won't help her type. Those types will start sitting dishes and trash on the floor. Will she get wood stain and paint all over the bedroom floor? Hard floors get dirty super easy and stuff gets tracked all over the house if you never vacuum. Not to mention keeping up with kitchen and bathroom clutter and messes. I'm an ass but I won't be surprised if she stops showing the whole house within months.
No. 1286006
>>1285847Okay, so the laser needs a window for exhaust. I completely understand that. I didn’t notice that the living room didn’t have much in the way of windows. Maybe Holly could move again when her money gets right. Whenever that happens.
Despite my low expectations I do want HB to succeed only because I want to see more of her lifestyle and what she spends her money on. I’m a bit voyeuristic when it comes to the lifestyles of the Internet’s artist.
Just like you I do wonder how Holly will keep that floor clean. I have laminate flooring and just spent the entirely of yesterday sweeping, dusting, and mopping. I really doubt that HB will be doing this weekly.

>>1364064Honestly her stuff isn't even that milky anymore. She genuinely seems like she's growing as a person, especially with how she's addressing the Japan/rising sun thing.
Not gonna lie though, her suggesting that she's going to turn her youtube channel into basically what her art channel was but for glowforge and laser tutorials makes me feel like there's potential for her to cycle back around again into the cringey chaos.

>>1644810Iirc she dated a guy in either high school or post-secondary (before going distance learning then eventually dropping out). She reportedly dated around a bit several years ago, and though anons didn't believe her it's pretty realistic to me. In rural North American areas there is no huge looks or personality threshold for dating, plus the people she mentioned on her streams didn't seem like winners.
During the stream where she discussed her sexuality (unclear if she's still identifying as a lesbian) she mentioned wishing to date Michelle with Michelle's husband just kind of being there kek, so this situation doesn't surprise me. It seems she doesn't get out much so that, along with where she lives, means it would be quite hard to meet other gay women. It also seems that she has trouble connecting with and maintaining relationships of any kind, so perhaps it's the bond she already has with Michelle that makes her shrug and say why not.
Despite it all I wish the best for her. She's mellowed out a lot and even in her new tutorials she's become pretty humble.
No. 1646323
>>1645548Thanks for all the info anon. That certainly explains, I sommetimes forget that she lives in the rural area and I can believe that she did have a previous dating history more than likely dating average to below-avr=erage looking guys who were into things like anime and video games.
And I think you may be right with why she felt it was best to date Michie. She hardly leaves her house, she doesn't have much of any friends, and she's known Michie for a long time and he managed to keep in contact with her even during the zine disaster. She feels comfortable around her and she doesn't have much prospects anyway so why not. It's funny though that she clearly is only there for Michie and not really her husband, living up to the stereotype of how the love in a poly relationship may not be evenly split.
No. 1646336
>>1646120This is so fucking true. Ever since Michie got in this poly relationship she always feels the need to mention how she has a girlfriend now and it coming off annoying as shit. Like she thinks that now that she's dating a woman along with her husband, she gets bragging rights to be able to speak up on lesbian dating (just watch, she's totally gonna do this come Pride next year kek).
>As for Michies husband and Holly there's not much interaction between them and I don't think they have that much in commonRight, I caught that too. Michie's husband seems more like one of those gruff (I used t this term loosely) mechanic guys who is mostly into cars and construction while being into some animu and game stuff. I think it's up in the air if the two will develop an intimate bond where it can go either way. She certainly isn't picky about looks so they have that going.
No. 1654748
>>1653819Yeah this. Michie has said it was all her idea to have Holly be in their relationship, she said that her husband didn't mind as long as she was happy. Hard to say how he really feels about it but I think you and
>>1654193 are both right that things may change when they all move in together and he has to deal with both of them in a more regular way. And as much as I hate to be a Debbie Downer, I have a feeling that will be what makes them split, either Holly gets removed out of the "trouple" or Michie leaves her husband for Holly and the two potentially struggle together to get by. Because as much as Michie likes to say that she pays for a lot of her/her husband's finances, it's clear that her husband is the breadwinner.

>>1653819>Holly is her ticket to be in the LGBT cause " look guys I have a girlfriend Anon you're absolutely right about this. I watch Michie's streams on her Twitch sometimes for background noise and whenever she has Holly on, Michie is the one who acts so fucking obnoxious about it. She always says things like
"Oh I Luv you BEEBEE, you're my girlfriend"
"I mean I want to because you're my girlfriend!"
Just a few examples, she always feels the need to remind her chat every few minutes that Holly is her girlfriend and even when she's not there, whenever she's talking to her other friends, she'll still find a way to mention "My girlfriend" or "My GF" and it's especially obnoxious when they're talking about Gay (they say "queer") stuff and now she feels like she's suddenly an expert.
Holly isn't as bad admittedly, like she won't yammer on about how Michie is her GF, she's still just has her occasional edgelord-ness that she always has but at least with the "relationship", she's actually lax about it in comparison.
No. 1657839
>>1656566I don't think she will troon out anytime soon. The one that will probably
trigger that will be michie. Holly's channel is basically dead, her art is not appealing and only draws her ocs. Her live streams are boring where she only talks about the same topics over and over again. While the chat is full of enablers that will say she haves improved and can do no wrong. She got nothing going on, is very annoying and boring. My theory is that she took his relationship so she would not/feel alone. Which is kind of a double edged sword considering that Michie is her only friend. So when this fall out she will genuinely be alone.
>>1657816Those 2 are just michie's friends.I have never seen a livestream or interaction with those 2 and Holly if michie was not there. Michie just invites Holly to be there. Holly is always been an edge lord cause according to her " I'm like a 12 year old boi".
No. 1658555
>>1657839Ah okay, thank you for the info on how Holly doesn't interact with Michie's troon friends or the enbie one. I don't really watch Holly's streams for the very reasons you pointed out, her streams by herself were so boring.
I suppose Holly won't troon out then since she doesn't have the influence of those people. It's uncertain what's gonna happen with her to be honest. Shes' just here, art style still the same that not a lot of people are interested in and her personality is not easy to like or root for. The next thing I see happening is eventually Mitchie and her husband moving out to Texas since they've made it very clear that they want to leave California and during that stage of her life, it'll either go really good or implode be it Michie's husband not digging the poly relationship or Michie thinking she should be with Holly or her husband only.

>>1769030>>She and Michie broke up/ taking some time. (Safe to say they were not even in a romantic relationship. Michie just got tired of dealing with her and told her “she needs time” until it is convenient for her to have a girlfriend again.)Wait holly and Michie broke up? I guess that makes sense why Michie hadn't been talking about her in her recent streams. But let's be real, most probably knew they wouldn't last anyway. To add onto what you said about how Michie probably got tired of dealing with her, I also feel like the only reason Michie got with her was so that she can have excuse to claim herself to be gay and can whine about her nonexistent oppression as a gay. I only say that because Michie would moan on and on about, almost like she was gloating about having a girlfriend and being "the ghey" (in her words).
It was just a "relationship" built on convenience (Holly) and attention whoring (on Michie's part).
>>1769057Agreed, it sounded like a total cope on her end. Like I mentioned, she only had like 3 people who made videos on her and they weren't "cancel" videos. Ignoring Creepshow, the other two were constructive criticism videos to help her improve her work. She just got too comfortable in her bubble to hear some honest truths about her art and how she needed more practice.
I'll give her some props for being honest in not wanting to improve, at least she admitted to it. It's just a shame because she has potential to be better.

>>1776062I assume you listened to her latest livestream, but if you haven't, she supposedly went to a clinic and got approved for hormones almost immediately.

>>1776140NTAYRT but this is just so maddening because like
>>1776062 mentioned, Holly seemed like she was turning her life around as she found something she's very interested in with her woodworking and taking her meds to regulate her BPD. Her trooning out is gonna wreak all kinds of negativity to her again since the prolonged HRT usage has been shown to mess with mental health.
If Holly does go through with it, I'm just picturing her becoming an obese, hairy woman who's delusional about how"good" she looks and suffering from health problems like all the other TIFs and TIMs that yammer on about how they don't regret fucking up their health.
Her being approved for the HRT almost immediately also just showcases how these organizations really don't care and just care about getting your money kek. I'm curious what her mother thinks about this.
>Michie has a lot of fake boi/ fujo TIFs as friends, so this isn't surprising.I definitely think this has something to do with it. You're right that the majority of Michie's friends are fakebois & fujo tifs most of which are zoomers. She interacts with 2 on the regular (Starheavenly and Vero). Michie made a retarded comment recently in one of her streams on how most of her friends are guys when the reality is that most of these "guy" friends are just TIFs.
It's actually depressing (and pathetic) seeing these grown ass women trying to "how do you do fellow kids" with their retarded zoomer audience who all have some sort of mental delusion because even Michie started saying shit like how she's a "demisexual bisexual on the "ace" spectrum" because she doesn't want to fuck her friends.

It's been a while since I lurked this thread at all, I checked Holly's twitter to see how she's been doing and it's kind of depressing. Her art is indistinguishable from what it was 4 years ago. Her tweets rarely if ever break 50 likes and there's so much of her talking about how bad her mental health is and of course drinking the trans koolaid. I feel bad for her at this point, what a complete waste.
She's also posting a HP comic to AO3. If no one else wants to read it I might make a collage of its best moments kek:

She will instantly regret it, not to mention that if she is interested in ever having a relationship with anyone it will be way more harder than it was before. Hard agree. Holly seems like she's really depressed and she already suffers from other mental health issues already. If she stupidly gets her breasts chopped off, she's gonna regret it for sure and there's no telling if she'll be able to live with such a fuck up. She's already admitted to being suicidal and actually tried committing it and something like this would only fuel that idealization even more when she realizes she can't reverse that "operation".
I want to hope that Holly will not do this but it doesn't help that her friend group consists of TIFs and NBs with blind affirmation all around. She hasn't said if she's "come out" to her mom but if so, I hope her mom is not blindly going with it and will be that anchor that slaps reality into her.
No. 1840700
>>1838214Well you gotta keep in mind that if her friend group is anything to go by, it makes sense why she has stagnated. Michie/Twisted Disaster who is(was?) good friends with her is also someone who has stagnated and hasn't improve neither. And they gas each other up so why improve when your friends claim they love your stuff? That's the mindset they're operating on.
Also I think Holly thinks that her style is recognizable and unique that stands out from other art (just not in the way she would like) which could be another reason why she doesn't see the need to improve. The sad thing is that if she just tweaked her proportions a bit and stopped drawing that ridiculous bicep line, her style would look a lot better. Like it's clear she wants to go for that generic simple webtoon style and that's fine but there are ways to make it look appealing.

Though even with that in mind, she could still have weird art friends who aren't troons.

It feels like she hasn't grown past Tumblr 2016 with the Tumblr sexymen drawings, which could work to her advantage but she isn't self aware enough for it to. Nor is she willing to update the right parts for it to work. Her OC drawings havent told us anything new about them either.
Ngl, I think her depression and subsequent isolation makes her art stagnant feeling which doesn't help this. So it turns into a cycle. But this has been mentioned a ton already. Hopefully, she takes the right steps and gets out of it because I find her crassness funny sometimes.

It's just pathetic and it's clear she just can't cope that she's a "boring" white girl in a straight relationship and obviously the whole poly thing was just to get more "uwu I'm bIsExUaL" gloating with how frequently she felt the need to remind her livestream that she had a girlfriend.

You're correct, it's her friend "Prickles" who says she's "Aroace" even though she literally pushed a baby out. I think she's 27 or 28 so like Michie, I think she's only saying this bullshit to fit in with the dynamic of the whack-ass group dynamic. I think Michie said she was working o a Discord group and calls their group the "Queer brigade" or something like that.

I sometimes like to check out what Holly' up to these days, she actually got pretty far into her PP comic (I assume she has an easier time updating it now that she's past the part where Reese shows up in the story). I'd say her art got to a point where it's decent enough for what is essentially a hobby project of hers, it definitely looks more polished compared to her Purgatory days. Her biggest weakness is storytelling imo and it really shows as the story goes on and becomes more confusing. Like, the part when Reese and Hershel finally meet … she has Hershel and the others go to a "faire" because they want to meet "their only fan" there (who I assumed to be Reese, since she shows him waiting for someone at the same time), yet as soon as they arrive Hershel just wanders off to a rave where he randomly runs into Reese and there is no mention of them having arranged a meeting. It honestly made me wonder if she just forgot her earlier set-up?
The character dynamics are also very awkward. Eg Hershel and Ash … like I'm pretty sure she wants to portray them as two old friends who like to tease each other but the way they act in the comic, it just seems like they actually hate each other and only force themselves to work together because of their (unsuccessful) paranormal youtube business. Also when Hershel runs into Reese at the rave, Reese immediatly makes a move on him, tells him that he's a stripper and invites him to the back room and Hershel just … goes along with him in a "yay I'm gonna have a fun talk with my new friend" kind of way? Like, he's not even a little bit reserved about it? I get that he's supposed to be the clueless one but come on, he is a grown man and a former COP. There's no way he wouldn't get at least a strange vibe from that entire situation.
Also, I guess pic related finally confirms that Reese was indeed the vine monster from the beginning (spoilered for pretty graphic self-harm).

I recently watched a bit of Michie's recent streams and Holly happened to be on it. She was being more or less calm and not all that annoying however it was hilarious how in the stream, their other friend TheZodiacLord was there and they were talking in length about their periods and yet Michie kept referring to them with "he/him" pronouns and it's the most fucking funny thing ever that these broads think they are any kind of man while talking about one of the most woman-only functions ever.
