nonna i'm deeply jealous of someone in the fandom i'm it. said person joined the fandom way later than me but she gained so much traction in such a short time. her drawing skill isn't even that good either, her anatomy is all fucked up. the subject matters in her art is also not interesting (pretty girls standing in colored backgrounds) but people seem to lap that shit up. the only "good" thing about her art is the color, which she admitted is just filter abuse. she can't even bother to choose her own colors goddammit. i know obsessing about this is stupid but i can't stop thinking about it. what should i do???
No. 2477139
>>2477099Ideally, ignore her. But otherwise, do you really care about the attention of people with such shit taste? The kind who’ll follow a crappy artist as long as she draws cute girls? Twitter popularity is total bs and there was a time where destinytomoon could easily get 20k(probably still could if she ever came back kek), the bad artists who get popular are just a variation of her but with waifus.
Also, focus on improving your own art, developing any personal projects you have in mind, and growing an audience who appreciates your art and skill. It’ll be slower instead of providing instant social media dopamine, but in the end it’s more satisfying than an audience gained through low-quality waifu art.

>>2477260I'm planning to infiltrate the spiritual people, they have a lot of money. I see them supporting all sorts of stuff. Like there's these two youtubers in my country who go on 3 vaccations a year! and still have money to buy expensive tech. People throw so much money on the spiritual influencers and I noticed people on facebook are interrested in paintings with spiritual themes, angels, abstracts, lots of warm colors and shit like that. If i add some yapping about my paranomal experinces i bet i can make it. Just wish i had the time to start already and not be in debt rn. So i guess try finding a specific community like this that doesn't have troons in it.
No. 2477380
>>2477099A lot of the time these fandom artists are either constantly posting engagement bait, or they have actually relevant fandom discussions that attract people to follow them. If people enjoy interacting with the artist, they'll interact with their art too, even if it's not as good. So you can keep that in mind.
Besides that, simple colorful drawings look good on the timeline, so people repost those fast without thinking.
If you don't like her posts and art, just mute her. You can't do much about it in the end.

>>2477470Don't do it. The Art Institute was such a scam the burgerland government shut it down and delivered refunds. Art school is so bad, the one my father went to had people graduating without the ability to actually draw. Networking is important but the amount they charge you? No.

>tfw one of my biggest art goals is to be mutuals and friends with a big artist
>but she’s in her early 40s and has been getting less active on social media each passing year
>my following count is more or less stagnant, and events that could’ve made it possible for her to notice me are getting more rare
Does anyone else feel frustrated that they missed the era of when the big artists were super active on social media and just talked and interacted more often in general? It was mostly when tumblr was super popular and twitter was also gaining traction. I’m younger than most of the big name artists that most of the online art community should know, the ones where if you checked their profile, hundreds of artists you follow can be seen listed also following them. It’s like a whole big exclusive club where most people know each other. During this era, my art obviously sucked while a lot of these people already had tens of thousands of followers, or were already in the industry. So I was too late to ever be part of the cool kids. And artists my age all seem lame as fuck in comparison, mostly gendie zoomers.
I’m so incredibly jealous of all the artists who managed to become mutuals and friends with her. I just know she’d also love my art too, we share many similar interests and tastes. And I can’t stop thinking about how old she’ll be if I ever make it big enough to be noticed, or if she (or I) dies before ever noticing me. I feel her noticing my art would be the most rewarding person ever and no one else really matters, so if she ever disappears off the internet then I might lack enthusiasm and motivation to draw again, because what’s the point if my most valued “senior” will never see it. I just want her approval so much
No. 2477735
>>2477700Normally, most anons on this site would eat you alive with "why do you care" "just draw for you" but honestly? Same. It was especially so during the Homestuck era, where these amazing artists would just pop up like Punpunipunchu. But what always baffled me was when I would see shitty artists or people who outright never drew at all become very close to her or other artists I admired at the time. I did get noticed by my favorites, but it came by way of someone reposting something I drew in her inbox, and she was super happy to see it and was super excited as to how it looked. But they didn't source me or let me know. So by the time I'd found out my favorite artist saw something of my own and loved it, they'd already gone offline entirely or died. Fucks me up to this day despite being probably a decade ago.
It also feels a bit sad to
become one of those fandom seniors? Like when all of your idols have gone on to either quit the trade or fandom, or got hired professionally, leaving inly… you. Just
you, who idk anout you anon, but I see myself as being insanely boring art-wise. But there's nobody around that particular fandom that isn't shilling gendie arts or zoomie slop (the many styles that get dunked on regularly here), and it's so… hollow?
I get what you mean, honest. Like you inherited a throne that sits on skeletons or dung or whatever super dramatic thing someone else could come up with. And then the cycle repeats, and you now get the shitty art in the inboxes of people who admired you the same way you admired your idols. A noose-worthy experience. I don't know how to "draw for myself". I only know how to draw to appease a select few.

>>2477735>But what always baffled me was when I would see shitty artists or people who outright never drew at all become very close to her or other artists I admired at the time.That's because those people talk to them. I know a mediocre artist who's been stuck under 5k for years who is mutuals with some really popular artists (like 80-100k) that are way above her skill level just because she reached out to them first and knows how to keep a conversation going. A lot of online artists are somewhat lonely or don't have (m)any fandom friends so they'll be happy to engage. Followers and skill levels don't really matter
No. 2477880
>>2477735Sorry for the long post. That inbox thing is terrible, art reposters who don’t credit the source are the worst. I’m glad you know what I’m talking about nona. Homestuck era is a great way to describe that time period. Everyone was younger back then so people had more time and energy to post art and socialize with other artists, I remember seeing tweets from an artist saying how sad they were that artists don’t really talk to each other on social media anymore as much as they used to. I guess all the big artists are too busy with jobs and general adult stuff these days. Elon making the site shittier every year also isn’t helping, so many people refuse to post there now or just started posting considerably less.
I never really thought about eventually becoming one of the “seniors” in the art community. Probably because I always flop and get ignored. A bit off topic but I always think about how aging will be like in this age of internet, where people you’ve known for years will slowly stop posting until old age and you’ll never know what happened to them, and just assume they died? Thinking about what social media will be like when we’re actually old was always bleak.
Anyway it would still be nice if I became a famous artist that a lot of people look up to, but having artists that you look up to is also nice. I just want all these artists I admire to be impressed with me. I feel nothing but jealousy when I see all these artists on instagram I follow like each other’s posts regularly. None of them ever followed me back so my art just isn’t amazing enough and it stings.
Honestly I think having a proper and personal art community for me would help a lot with my happiness when it comes to art. I’m jealous of anyone who has a close group of artist friends. I find it so annoying how none of my friends are artists. I do have some online artist mutuals, and I was invited to a discord that consisted of a mutual’s art friends but it’s mostly dead and I’m not really close with anyone there. And on the other hand I’m in a ton of larger servers that focus on art but of course there’s no real sense of coziness or familiarity there.
There was talk about people finding someone else to draw ocs with in the last thread and it sounds so fun. I wish I could join those dnd group projects with other artist friends. I just realized that I don’t have any close art friends in real life or online, which is probably a big reason why I yearn for attention from big artists.
No. 2477901
>>2477865>Just send her a message if you think you have a lot in commonEhh I don’t know nona, this person has over 100k followers and I’d just die if they were the type to ignore randos in their dm. What would I even say? Hey I like your art and we have a lot of similar interests, check out my page and see if you want to follow me too?
I actually did reply under a post once where she was drawing other people’s ocs, and of course that got a ton of replies and I remember that one of the replies that was chosen was a newer reply than mine, so she probably saw my oc post too and ignored it since she didn’t even leave a like. To be fair I don’t think she liked every post, but still, maybe she wouldn’t be as impressed with my art than I thought and it’s just my hopeful wishing as usual.
>That's because those people talk to them.That’s also another thing, I admit that I’m the type to judge others when they try cozying up to big artists. I just can’t help but see it as very fake and desperate, so it’s embarrassing to me. I know it’s kinda hypocritical when I also said I wished artists would socialize with each other more, I guess I’m just too much of a pussy to make a change myself.
I would only consider leaving comments on other posts if we’re mutuals already. If this person isn’t following and they’re a much bigger artist? Nope x2. I just can’t stand the thought of my followers and other mutuals seeing my pathetic ass trying to get a big artist’s attention on their timeline kek. The view counter on tweets make the whole thing even worse, imagine tweeting “omg I love your art sm” under a popular artist’s post, and it gets zero likes and has 3k views. Fucking hate elon so much.
I guess the most direct way of me trying to get this person’s attention would be to draw her ocs. I could post it using her hashtag for her comic since I’m too afraid of @ing her directly, but since she’s barely active she probably will never see it. Even if I was brave enough to @ her, she still might not see it so I’ll look like a fool in front of my followers, or another terrible situation where she DOES see it, likes it and comments, but doesn’t follow me. At that point I’d give up tbh.
For the record, she did used to follow a lot of artists when she was active, and when she made bluesky I noticed that she followed a bunch of new different people including young artists, so I thought following her on bluesky would be my best shot at being noticed but whelp, nothing came out of it

>>2477880>I find it so annoying how none of my friends are artists. Me too. I love my current friends dearly, but as we grow older, we no longer have things in common. I love shipping characters and none of them are really into the whole OC scene.
>There was talk about people finding someone else to draw ocs with in the last thread and it sounds so fun. I wish I could join those dnd group projects with other artist friends. I just realized that I don’t have any close art friends in real life or online, which is probably a big reason why I yearn for attention from big artists.I was thinking about making some sort of fun OC shipping thing in /m/, but I'm kind of stupid when it comes to making threads. I'll look more into it and try to make one, since it seems like something a lot of drawfags on here want. I know I want it; I miss it. During those Homestuck days, nearly everyone talked to one another and shipped OCs. Tumblr is still kind of dead, but that makes whatever remains rather cozy. I'm not going to pretend like communicating with people is easy on there, but I noticed fujos stick together and artists that avoid doing the diversity thing also seem to be magnetized towards one another. I started recently just commenting on this one Japanese artist's art (they're bilingual I think, and seem to meme too hard to be using Google Translate), and they seemed EXTREMELY happy to talk. I'm hoping it goes somewhere, since I'm tired of the gendies being the ones that want to interact all the time.
Hope this doesn't sound shallow nona, but I'm on this thread nearly 24/7 out of loneliness, so I kinda get the feeling you have lol
No. 2477905
>>2477700I get what you mean but not as an artist. I followed many artists from many countries on tumblr and pixiv, and then on twitter because we were into the same series or video games, more than 10 years ago. The Japanese ones all nuked their tumblr accounts long ago and only post on twitter about their professionally published books that almost never get officially translated where I am nowadays, best case scenario they'll sometimes retweet videos of cats and birds and post one generic fanart of the new popular shonenslop anime of the year. The ones from Western countries have been harassed online so much based on bullshit like which husbando they married in Fire Emblem they stopped posting as much as they used to or deleted everything. The ones who still post only post personal stuff for their own irl friends completely unrelated to art and fandom or they only annonce which comics or cartoons they're working on, or in which cons they'll sell prints. The most they'll do is reply "thanks a lot" to whoever try to strike a conversation with them if they don't know each other so I don't try. The ones who went pro are most likely still a bit paranoid they'll be deemed too
problematic for their industry and blacklisted after dealing with harassment over weeb video games and husbandos so I understand why they try to seem as neutral as possible though. Some of them decided to post way more on bluesky to avoid bots polluting their notifications but not that many of them.
No. 2477921
>>2477903The /m/ thread sounds like a fun idea, but unfortunately I don’t think I’d ever post my art/ocs on this site because of gendie lurkers who could possibly rat me out if they recognized me. Reminds me of when this general decided to join artfight and created a tag to identify other farmers but some self hating troonie here tattletaled to the af mods and got people here banned. I still hope that people who can post their art here freely will enjoy the thread if it’s ever made.
>>2477905That’s sad, following artists for a specific interest/fandom is always hard since most of them will stop drawing that particular fandom. That’s why true dedicated autists are so special like that famous Hyouka artist who was bullied off the internet.
I don’t have a particular fandom I wanted to see from artists since I follow for their art style only, so most of the artists I love still post at least regularly thankfully. But I always make sure to save their art in a folder on my pc regularly in case they ever delete everything and I encourage nonas to do the same. I can’t bear the thought of not having my favorite artists’ work on my pc at all times

Speaking from experience, of course. I can 100% sympathise because I definitely look up to some popular artists! I'm also older though so I've already gone through several 'hyper-idolising to crashing out' phases over the years.

At least if some troon is obsessed enough to follow us there to get us banned on af, then the whole ship goes down including the 4chan moids kek.
What even was the secret code last time? Was it just #farmer? I’d be shocked if such a generic tag was enough for the mod to ban several people. Also, I’m thinking that the troon who ratted us out was just a summer tourist since af takes place in July so maybe they aren’t here now? If you guys organized this early, they might never know

#pasture for sure is specific so I can see why it was easy to spot nonnies ocs out in the wild. Perhaps using the #farmer tag for ocs would be better, since there’s no doubt many characters tagged as farmer already? If you guys went on with this then maybe your ocs would have to be farmer themed somewhat, or not and you could just slap the farmer tag just because and no one will really question it

Sorry to vent but it just came to mind; when I was 12 or so my mom took me to an art club for their paint evening with an art teacher as a fun mother-daughter activity. I was the only child there, people in the club were nice and didn't have a problem with it. But halfway through the (hired) art teacher stopped the class to evaluate our works so far and she specifically out of all the paintings picked up my painting. Which was super obviously done by a kid, the only kid there. It really looked like the most stereotypical child painting with cute colorful creatures like picrel (but worse), you couldn't mistake it for anything else among the adult paintings. And this grown ass woman goes on to criticize it harshly in front of all the adults, knowing full well it's done by a literal child. She even pointed out things like "even if it looks nice this way… if you turn it on the side it's ruined because the subject is central to the painting" as if that's even a problem?! We were not instructed to do anything abstract or turnable like that btw. She then picks up adult paintings praising what I had done wrong and they had done right - no negatives about the others. I still get upset thinking about it to this day, it's a wonder I even kept doing art at all after she humiliated me like that in front of adults.
No. 2478596
>>2478559Sorry that happened to you but it's so absurd that this teacher seriously criticized a child's artwork that it's comical. Loser. I am reminded of a high school art teacher I had who actually got mad at me for asking for critique after class and started to rant to me about how professional critique sessions cost $200/hour and
HOW DARE I ask her for critique outside of class. That made me feel like shit as a young teen. Loser art teachers are the worst.

I think a problem though might not be giving interactive content. Do you have a comic or anything like that that goes with your OCs? Personally I don't because as much as I'd like to do a comic, I'm too lazy but I've noticed that sometimes that can help drum up some interest.

I think some folks were mentioning how she was making a POC sona while being white or some shit??? Very… strange but hardly interesting at the time.AYRT and I watched her for her story times as well but eventually she stopped doing them and focused more on art related topics. I don't know if I would call her a full cow but more like a semi-cow because of her lack of self awareness to her own art and her constant excuses for various things in her life. She's kind of like Amberlynn Reid but not
abusive, just whiny and lazy.
Like discussed in last thread, she's been on a job hunt but has the most ridiculous standards despite her not working an IRL job for close to 10 years now.
>Applied at a UPS store and didn't want to work there because she feared she'd get "hate-crimed" for being "nonbinary" and getting "misgendered" by not getting referred to with "they/them" pronouns.>Wants to make above minimum wage but is not willing to work a job that would pay that like warehouses and computer-related jobs. But she more or less thinks retail is beneath her because she claims to make more money doing her art yet frequently opens for emergency commissions.>Believes that she was discriminated from a job opportunity because she put that she is Jewish on her job application and can't work on Fridays and Saturdays to which the job was given to someone else. Mmind you, she doesn't practice Judaism and that she more than likely didn't get the job because she put that she couldn't work Friday and Saturday.>Continually she goes on and on about how great she is with her line art and coloring yet seems to be allergic to practicing her anatomy and foundations and her style quality is picrel.>Went a whole 9 months not having her period and thinking that was normal only to finally go to the doctor when she started experiencing excruciating pain.All of this is kind of cowish behavior in my view but despite her ridiculousness, I'm not sure if I would call her a full-blown lolcow because she's not as active on her YouTube and her cowish behavior is mostly seen on her Twitch where she says all kinds of dumb things.
>I think some folks were mentioning how she was making a POC sona while being white or some shit??I don't remember that, her character that she uses is a black cyclops cat but I don't recall people saying that that was racist. I think you're probably thinking about PonderSprocket? She initially had a
POC character for her talk sprite but then changed it because she felt it was misleading to use a
POC character when she's a white woman.

And also another good point about Disneyland being next to it, it makes sense why people would rather spend a lot of money at Disneyland vs a con which when you think about it, is kinda crazy that they'd have the con be in that location lol
But the thing with this woman is that almost every con she works, most of them she said that she didn't make all that much money aside from making her table back but also always felt the need to tell the viewer that all the other artist alley artists were doing just as bad and with how frequently she would say this, I just had to give some side eye, especially when it's coming from an artist who's quality is picrel to where it's not surprising why an artist like her may not get as much sales compared to others who have a more refined style.

>>2481108As someone who was a teen when scene was the "in" thing, I think it's because these zoomers didn't live it and all they have to go off of are pictures on Pinterest which is what makes the style whether they attempt to dress it or make their OCs dress it come off as inauthentic. It probably doesn't help that zoomers don't seem to have a style that defines their generation unlike previous generations (70-80s = punks & goths, 90s = grunge, 00s - mall emos and scenekids). Maybe the E-Girl/E-Boy aesthetic is theirs defining style?

He was an official artist for blue archive, specifically the anime and I think all he’s done was just draw an official illustration for them. His accounts have gotten suspended many times. So that’s why I’ve always hated these retarded pedo memes and everyone who repeats them, because they were already unfunny and pedoshit but the moid behind them is an unironic literal pedo who wants to rape kids, which is something that most people who parrot these probably don’t know.
Those type of weeb fans are ultra subhuman anyway so I don’t expect them to care. They’d probably agree with his sentiments if anything

sorry for the art vent, nonas. I draw a lot for free, for friends, etc. and have had personal accounts for over two decades. I've never had any real attention over my work on these types of sites, I mostly go underground and ignored. But recently, a friend of mine had started posting my art that I've made for the OCs as apart of their profile. And that person has been getting a wave of compliments for the artwork. I just feel really weird about it. It's his OC, so I don't want to seem like I'm overstepping by saying I'm not comfortable with having my stuff shown. How do nonas deal with having their stuff public at all? He's not an artist, so I'd feel kinda mean by saying he can't use it, it is his character, after all. And it's not necessarily that I'm uncomfortable with someone using it, just that it's being seen. But why do I even feel this way, why do I feel so strongly about it? god I'm cooked.

She hasn't been all that active in a while though ever since some Discord drama was abuzz (more info about that in the art commentary community thread)
>This shit is mad hilarious. I now have something to watch for the next couple of days.Yeah it's pretty stupid though keep in mind, this stuff mostly gets espoused on her Twitch, not YouTube. But if you have the tolerance and don't mind listening to dumb shit being spouted, she can be entertaining to listen to as background noise. Personally the only time I "nope" out of listening to them is when she blathers on about troon & gendie crap. Or I get tired of her trying to be all "how do you do fellow kids" by trying to talk like a zoomer with their slang (she says "raw-dog" a lot… Ew.)
>>2481416Yeah it's pretty gnarly isn't it? To be fair, I'm pretty sure that was a commission but still, the quality speaks for itself kek.

I have even heard some artists switching back to blind because often it's better for their posture. But also saw others mention they had to get a screen one because the intuos was hindering their progress a bit, I guess it depends on the person.
Your case reminds me of the copic baggers back then, they all thought their art was better for using alcohol markers when they had shit color palettes and didn't even blend, a crayola set would've sufficed for their level.

After you get the basics done, THEN you can incorporate some elements.

Internet artistry has evolved into what I like to call "faux punk". An epoch of autism creatures, blobslop comics about how much you love your friends, retarded cat memes hastily slapped onto shitty chickenscratch drawings, inoffensive safe edgy jokes, progressive commentary that isnt saying anything actually new or controversial (riot grrrl, kill your abuser), vanilla kink stuff that the author positions as something so innovative its gonna make those dumb cishetetonormative normies go bald from stress. People are allergic to thinking with their own heads, to drawing with their own hands. Everything is rehearsed. Recycled. Turned into neat catchphrases that are vague enough for you to slap them on almost anything. Toxic old man yaoi. Tboy swag. Morally grey. Doomed yuri. Cannibalism as a metaphor for love. Weird girls. You love weird girls, right? Remmember that you are a product. Problematic. Realistic depiction of mental illness. Loving like a dog. Words and phrases get repeated so much that they lose all of their bite. Everytime something new comes out it gets swallowed by the fandom and regugitated into the same sludge theyve all seen before, forced into the same tired tropes. Labels dont have meaning anymore. Artstyles all look the same, vaguely human shaped blobs of bright shapes and colors, and dont forget to slap pronoun pins on it!

>>2486579You just perfectly described my feeling about current art community but i couldn't find a correct name for it. Another thing is that most twitter artists draw characters with the exact same unfunny recycled memes to death or they just redraw a popular reference from pinterest. Nothing wrong with using references but they don't change anything or put something new so they end up referencing a reference (if this phrasing makes sense)
No. 2486636
>>2486579It's because everything has to be meme-able content or some kind of reference to something. That's what happened to most entertainment. If you look at popular anime, for example, almost everything is a self cannibalized trope of something that's already been iterated on 50 times over. It's one thing to have your influences, but another thing entirely to only have other anime as a frame of reference for creativity. It's like no one has any interests of their own, so there's nothing to say; just pump out the same art and stale memes because they saw it did numbers. As soon as a popular meme starts cropping up I try to mute it if it has a tag.
And of course the people eating all of it up talk about wanting something different, but when something different comes along, it's largely ignored.
It's just healthy to get away from the internet art scene at large. At this point, I retreated from it. I don't even go to many artist alleys anymore because it's just more internet meme art that's leaked into meatspace.

>>2486579I understand what you're saying but it's also that things become popular.
The internet is bigger than it used to be 10 years ago, people are doing what they've always done and use ways to signal to the outside world their group preferences or "tribe". People in the same tribe will copy each other so you end up seeing the same art meme until it dies.
But also some of the stuff you point out like "morally grey" i think was a desire to see change in art but people were afraid to vocalise it until someone did, now it's everywhere. Same with "media literacy" even though you didn't mention it, it probably fits in.

I keep weighing the pros and cons of making art friends. It's one thing to befriend someone that draws, but it feels next to impossible to connect to someone who likes similar things period since the audiences are all tinged with gendie bullshit. I want to bully bad art in DMs with someone without them collecting evidence on some future callout post they're planning.

>I want to bully bad art in DMs with someone without them collecting evidence on some future callout post they're planning.If it helps, I'd suggest testing the waters by trashing some art in a voice chat so there's no record if the other person reveals themself as the type to cry about how mean you are on social media. My friend was a little gendie-poisoned as well, but also was a little bit of a man-hater, so maybe that's a trait to look out for? I feel like shit-talking men and being gnc myself got her to drop her gendie labels and the bulk of her gendie retardation. She's not perfect in that respect, but she's now comfortable enough to vent about pornsick TIMs to me without guarding her language too much and that's honestly farther than I ever thought she'd get, especially since I haven't purposefully tried to peak her. I don't do any gendie shit myself, but I also only share my true feelings on the matter if I can find a polite or innocuous way to communicate it.
>>2486892>I just don't get the appeal of making fun of bad art?Sometimes art's bad in a really weird or interesting way or the artist is way too conceited for their level of skill and I find the mismatch funny. It's just nice to have someone you can nitpick a literal who in DMs with (I only post bad/weird art on LC if it's by an exceptionally popular artist or the art is exceptionally bad because I feel like an asshole otherwise) for a minute or two. This might be overselling it, but I also think it keeps me more critical of my own art and motivated to improve while also keeping it light (if I'm only laughing at this literal who's art for a minute, then whoever might be looking at my art and similarly laughing is probably laughing for about as long–that's the idea anyway).

The fact that kate is so sexualized despite being an outcast/nlog and the fact her Trent rip off is a TIF makes me wonder if she just has internalized homophobia.

>>2486972 every time this artist is posting, there isn't anything there to critique? It's not fancy, it's not alluring, it's uneventful save for the pronouns I presume this artist had included on a character. Her art isn't bad. Things like blueberry art, diaper fetish, things that are inherently questionable, have a colossal amount of social media interaction as if it holds some inherent value? Fair game. If I see a child has made it, no, that does not exempt me from bullying them
in DMs privately with a friend, where the artist can't hear me, if the art is sexual or fetishized. Skill level be damned. Like you said, subject matter is key.
I enjoy doing it or redlining art in my own time privately or with a friend in the past because it is fun. I don't cowtip if that's what you're thinking, so what sad backstory the artist has is probably not going to impact my opinion of the art.

>>2486579not to derail but i've noticed something similar happening with the artists themselves - not only is art starting to look the same, but most of these internet artists try to act the same way too, to seem "relatable". maybe it's just me, but it's so odd that it's become normal for artists to be TMI-level open on their public accounts: complaining about everything, mental illness sperging, using the same buzzwords all the time like broken records. think mgong and how she constantly freaks out over every little thing.
i understand this could be an effect of the current algorithms that demand a 24/7 stream of content but i miss when artists just quietly posted their work and shut up. it's beyond bizarre to see an artist you look up to post their work and immediately follow it up with a post or IG story about how their self-diagnosed schizophrenia is making them act up or whatever.

No. 2489494
>>2489466No, it's just that most (Almost all) TIFs before the 2010's were lesbians. It started changing up during the late 2000's but throughout most of history and especially in the 20th century, a lot of lesbians just crossdressed or if shit was really bad for them, trooned out. And in the 90's most TIFs were basically just butches. We're just saying it'd make more sense for Alex to just be butch because the way brujoari is describing her "transition" that would supposedly happen in the early 90's doesn't really make sense. I also find Kate being a TIF kind of funny too, because that kind of straight woman TIF didn't really exist until like the 2010's kek
It's not that brujo, as an OSA woman needs to cater to SSA women or whatever, it's just that it makes no sense for her to make Alex a TIF. She'd be better off making Alex a male or a butch

Can anybody please help me with foreshortening cylinders and ellipses? No matter what I do it just looks wrong in some way, even when I directly copy from a youtube video. The face of the cylinder is always too circular, or too pointy, or too wide to be properly attached to the lines that make it a cylinder. Ellipses are a whole other beast. When I draw them, its like pulling teeth. Something must always be too rounded or messy. I tried all the popular videos, proko, Kentucky, robert kiss, whatever. Is it simply an issue of not having enough practice and I must grind, or is my technique off in some way?

>too wide to be properly attached to the lines that make it a cylinder.you could try to make really confident lines or use more guidelines like you were apparently going to do in the middle of the page of the drawing on the left
I also noticed that even in perspective some of your sidelines seem too short, and in the lower right drawing the lines closer to the circle seem to lose and like you didnt even try (no offense)
>Something must always be too rounded or messy.dont do the same lines too many times and keep your pencil sharp but dont or try with a fine liner, but dont do the same line over and over on the same spot because that also doesnt help make it look neater, maybe just try working on your pulse and line confidence
>Is it simply an issue of not having enough practice and I must grind?im not sure of how long youre taking with those drawing but they seem really quick, and its not like they should take too much, because theyre cilinders anyways, but grinding also needs some patience to make things look right, you could also try to look at some references and really observe amount the upper and lower circle show on the side, there's a lot of them in pinterest too

If she isn't going to use the y2k art style anymore is there any reason she still wants to use a 2000s setting? She doesn't seem super interested in making a time-accurate period piece, maybe a modern setting would be more cohesive for how her story is evolving.

i know they've incidentally been mentioned here before but does anyone else keep up with tenderism/orin and 1p3pino/pedro? orin in particular is one of my favourite art cows. for the uninitiated:
>orin is a filipino-american gendie who goes by "he/him" yet dresses like a cartoon prostitute or dollar-store alt girl and refuses to lose weight
>pedro is an argentinian guy who actually looks after himself and is physically fit
>initially had a long-distance romance
>both got legally married a few years ago, orin has seemingly thrown away her art degree to live with him in buenos aires (iirc)
>orin maintains a nsfw account on twitter (innermostvein) where, among other things, she brags about how big pedro's cock is
>pedro also has a side account where he draws various cartoon depictions of the two of them fucking
>orin is often depicted as having a dick despite otherwise being drawn as a 5-foot-something woman with huge breasts
>both have posted nudes multiple times
>the two of them film actual porn videos and sell them to followers on patreon
>their followers, of course, encourage this
picrel is them and their artwork. they fascinate me, both are skilled artists and yet this is how they choose to present themselves. i truly wonder how they occupy their time, since i imagine no art-related job is willing to hire two people who've openly posted their homemade pornography online. if a divorce arc happens i'll genuinely cheer, pedro gives off the biggest chaser vibes.

To the nonas complaining about pronountards in art spaces; it’s amazing how far not actively promoting gendie shit and referring to yourself always as a woman will get you in terms of making TERF friends.

>>2491808I think the waning passion after too much time has passed is something every party experiences. One day you're just talking to your friends about how cool it would be to make a husbando zine and 8 months later you have to ship out hundreds of zines filled with shitty art of a character you don't even care about anymore during your vacation that wouldn't have been affected had there not been delays at every other step. I would definitely put it off for months in a case like that kek
The timelines are really insane though. As an artist I've never needed the full months they plan and ime and neither did anyone else. Most people including myself would procrastinate until the last week and bang their page out in a day. Or everyone would get an extra week because no one bothered to do work and the production timeline would shift further back. I didn't like doing my parts early because at the time I was participating in zines my skills were still developing and three months or whatever the mods had planned would mean a huge difference in quality. Projects like that only succeed if the people involved are really passionate or disciplined which online artists seldom are
No. 2491828
>>2491826True, I don’t really think I was ever truly excited to receive a zine I participated in in the mail. And the long production times is also annoying when you’re working on a piece and it won’t be until a year or more later when you actually get to post it, and that art is terribly outdated at that point so it’s too ugly to post.
And I wonder how often mods can just take a chunk of the profits (that doesn’t include their original share) before paying the artists and no one would ever know. Overall it’s just harder for me to trust zines now, so I stopped joining them for about a year or two since. A zine that started in 2022 and is still not complete is just fucking ridiculous and irresponsible

>>2491851So true. There just need to be more resources for artists looking to get into it. The production, shipping or tax aspects are somehow never mentioned in guides.

>>2492154If a zine is fully for charity most of the time it's just the mods wanting accolades, to be honest. I've moderated zines for a couple of years now and while I did do a few full charity projects usually the project itself was themed around the cause we wanted to showcase support for (ex. protecting the Amazon rainforest, associations for women
victims of abuse etc) for the sake of, well, support. To bring attention to the very thing we believed in and wanted to bring awareness to. For all my other zine projects, either they were 50/50 charity-profit or full profit because surprise, your contributors are artists and it's good practice to pay your artist with actual money, even more when the project is successful and profits are high.
When I see those fandom zines about completely random shit like "fairytale AU for this one gay bishie yaoi couple" that are full charity it never sits well with me.
>the mods did always get their shares of profit.This too never sat well with me. In the full charity zines I modded for, the most the mods would get would be like 50 bucks to cover up some stray costs at the end of the project. The moment a project was decided to be full charity all of the money it gets has to be split between covering costs and charity, with as little as possible going for the mods. It just feels dissonant tbf to take a slice of a full charity zine's profits while all of your artists and writers are getting paid with a physical book and janky merch + some exposure. It feels unfair. So much talk about "paying your artists" but when it comes to those projects so many seem to try to avoid actually paying the contributors as much as possible.
No. 2492188
>>2492181(NTA) While I do agree with you that nowadays fandom works are way too profit oriented, I have to say it's kind of shitty to organize a huge project that spans an entire year, if not two, with an entire selection process and a marketing setup (aka all artists also need to market the zine around on top of working on their pieces), only for you to get nothing except a physical copy while the mods take a bite out of the money before sending the rest for charity. The issue is that nowadays zine projects are an entire production line that nearly has actual work schedules depending on the project, and not paying your artists even a single dime considering all of that is pretty shitty.
If zines were similar to their original concept aka just a fun group project to showcase love for a series, then yeah making it profit-oriented is stupid. But if you're going to make 30 or so artists go through what's nearly a job application and screening process and take up almost a year of their workload only to later pay them with an overproduced book and shitty merch then at least have the decency to give them some sort of proper reward.

>>2491459Yeah! Me too! While they're not necessarily friends
yet, the fandom I've entered has an overwhelmingly female base. Most of them do put their pronouns in bio, but it's either she/her or "do not ask for my pronouns". Judging from the things they draw, it is evident they are CLEARLY women.
The moid side of this fanbase also vehemently hate troons and I think that is mirrored onto the female side of it too. I've seen some poc recolors of the characters, sure, but not a single trans version of any character in the characters' tags and it's really refreshing! I wish good luck onto all other nonas too!

>>2492694I'm in the same boat Nona. I put out good work and all anyone ever has to say to me is how underrated I am and how much potential I have and how am I not getting more traction. I'm not flattered by it, it doesn't feel good, and I really don't like spending so much time rubbing shoulders with other artists. I just don't like interacting all that much so it always works against me. When I talk to others on socials a lot it takes up so much time and energy and I'm just not as invested.
I focus a lot on my own work so that I don't feel like I'm missing out. But it does suck when you're constantly overlooked for someone else who clearly isn't better skill wise but plays the social media game more frequently.
Just keep making your art. People who find it will fall in love with it. It might not be many but they'll be loyal. I don't believe in posting multiple times a day and spending all that energy hoping people notice me in the comments. I've played that game and it always feels fake and desperate, especially if it ends up not working. I miss the days of posting and letting people admire it - it'd carry you til the next post. Who cares about my personality outside of my work anyway. It's a parasocial game nowadays. Sorry if I derailed.

Nonas does anyone else find drawing faces from the front the most frustrating thing ever? I have this serious problem where the jawline will always be crooked when I flip the canvas, pic rel. it drives me insane because this is a problem I’ve been experiencing for years. I always flip the canvas often to make sure my drawing looks right, especially when drawing front facing faces, and adjusting it until it’s no longer crooked.

For comparison, an industry professional working with an animation studio offered me $1000 per character design, including providing fullbody turnarounds and a few expressions per character.
Generally I think artists should price however they want because they’re severely undervalued, but admittedly I have less sympathy for a rich spoiled he/they gendie, who went to a 50k tuition private art school(RISD), attempting a career in drawing $1200+ generic anime girl art for similarly rich frivolous customers kek.

I joined a cool art project (like 10 artists involved), everyone but the organizer were on time and met the deadlines as far as I could tell but eventually all we got was radio silence. It's been a year since we last heard from the organizer. I suddenly remembered the project, so I looked the organizer up more closely. I had a very evil bigoted terfy hunch that someone who fails that badly and doesn't take any accountability must be a troon. It didn't take much digging to find an ugly greasy selfie and indeed clock him as a troon (a transbian at that). It all makes sense now. I've only got myself to blame for not looking him up right away, but in my defense I only joined because a mutual artist friend recommended it and other cool bigger artists I liked were joining in too.

>>2494855Redrawing bad art. When I run out of ideas, I just do anatomical and compositional corrections of stuff other people make.

>>2495625I do 3D modelling (character sculpts and environment design), and I 3D print as well (resin/SLA, not filament/PLA). I like to make models of my ocs and print custom GKs of them, since I like making and painting miniatures as well– I lost my mind working on my last original print project and basically modelled and printed a whole diorama with two characters, and that was a lot of work lmao so no more of that for a while– and am currently working on a figure of my dnd character (I do a lot of printing and painting for my dnd group, but not often custom modelling). Best thing about 3D is that it really does feel like the 'end product' of drawing in a lot of ways (imo sculpting in zbrush feels a lot like drawing/painting anyway and has skill overlap), and 3D printing just makes your ideas feel so tangible and
real. Worst thing imo is hard surface modelling, I can do it now but it's really not my preference and I'd rather work with organic forms and sculpting programs any day than make eg props in Maya kek.
I went to uni for this shit (3D modelling/animation), so don't have the best knowledge of who'd be helpful as a resource, but some youtubers that helped me when I was starting out and learning programs/technique were follygon (his method for blocking out characters is really easy to learn), flipped normals, and Michael Pavlovich (might not be the best
artist but his technical knowledge of the programs he uses is excellent and he makes a video on pretty much every function in them and how to use them). Can't go wrong with finding a copy of Anatomy for Sculptors either. I suggest learning the basics/how to do things properly first before looking for hacks.
What kind of 3D printing do you want to do? Bit hard to help out without that
Some various 3D artists I like:
Nikita Veprikov
Pauline Boiteux (she's a texture artist but she's too good not to include)
Gabriel Soares
Olga Cornacchia
Florent Desailly
Zhelong Xu
Eddy Loukil
Milan Vasek
Maria Panfilova

>>2496627That's a weird mentality. I've always seen the art of illustration as a journey moreso than an attention magnet. Yeah, sure, she could just continue not to improve because she makes a monetary gain off of it, or because she gets clicks. But I, personally, feel disgustingly dissatisfied with myself if, say, a new fictional husbando is discovered from a new IP, and I can't
draw his ass because he's a body type I've never tried to learn. So then, doing something like drawing him too skinny or too lanky would feel gross and terrible.
But that's a personal preference. I want to be able to create environments, use beautiful color schemes. Works of art that impress me. But if you're an artist worth your salt, picrel shows that it will inevitably hit you that "damn, my art is bad" even if a ton of others think it's good. I couldn't live with myself like that.
And? I don't want to be better than the people I admire. I want them to grow too. Being able to see my admirations' mistakes upsets me. I don't want to talk shit about her in a way like

>>2496648I just think it's unhealthy? I don't always mind wanting to improve—sometimes it's necessary, especially for things like anatomy. But there has to be a point where you say, “This is enough,” and let yourself rest until it feels right to pick things up again. I want to make my dreams come true, but constantly telling myself “I'm not good enough” isn't a healthy mindset, even if the goal is to get better. Your art is good—maybe not perfect, but good. And that matters. Be proud that you can draw at all. That's something a lot of people wish they could do.
Honestly seeing all these post makes me wonder why I'm an artist to begin with especially as I see art in my skill level posted on the bad art thread. It just, puts a very bad taste in my mouth that forces me to never share my art online. The more transient the better.
Like art to me is a hobby. I don't draw fanart often–no spark or desire for it. I have zero interest in doing comics and the like. And if I ever make a game, it's text based because art just feels separate from the content I make. I just draw because it brings joy to me and the people who enjoy it. And though there's some subjects I wish to tackle, it isn't in service to a long journey to perfection, I just wanted to see if I can do it. Other people are, and I wanna try it too.

No. 2496893
>>2496842nta, but there's a difference between a "I'm not good enough" that comes from a negative mindset and something like "I like what I have, but it could be better" which is a perfectly healthy mindset to have towards your own art imo. Reminds me of fatties who think you have to hate your body to lose weight when I think weight loss plans tend to stick better when the person specifically does not treat the process as some form of self-flagellation.
I agree with you though that not every artist should feel obligated to constantly improve, especially if it's their hobby and not their job. I personally go through periods where I'm grinding my fundies like a crackhead or doing master studies of artists I look up to and other times where I kick back draw whatever I feel like even if it's trite or repetitive. Even with all that said, it still does kind of suck to see an artist I like stagnate after years and years, especially if I think they have to potential to make some really good work.

I was simply complaining after checking up on her after forgetting she existed for a decade. Leave her alone? I don't even think she capes for trannies (didn't check), so that's really a mentality for stirring up shit when it isn't necessary.

My friend joined a comic/manga zine a while back, they have a theme but could write whatever they wanted and all decided to only share the near finished versions together as a surprise now nearing production. Everyone but my friend and one more artist turned their story into a lesbian plot. To be clear the theme wasn't romance or yuri or anything related like that kek my friend showed them all to me and is thinking of pulling out last minute but fears backlash. It's really all navel gazing tumblr tier slop with vitiligo disabled muslims and troon characters (so half of them are also straight stories posing as yuri) and I feel so sorry for her but it's also hilarious seeing it and hearing her talk about how they all slowly realized they weren't the only one doing mind blowing woke representation and that they were in fact all the same. Imagine reading the same "plot twist" (the twist is that she's totally actually GAY and not straight) ten times over and every artist thought they'd be the only one blowing your mind with this.

and yeah it’s especially prevalent in the comic community of artists. in shortbox there’s so many tards making muh qUeEr romance comic and it’s marketed as yuri, makes me roll my eyes so hard at how insanely unoriginal and creatively bankrupt 90% of these comic artists are.

>Genice made a character with ribbon wings when Juby already has a character with ribbon wings (which isn't an original concept in the first place)>Genice may have been inspired by/referenced an art piece by Juby>Genice introduced the concept of guardian spirits in her project, when Juby already had that concept. She also allegedly copied the phrasing from an old tweet by Juby (lmao)I'm genuinely confused. Is that it? Juby flat out says at the beginning of the document that she helped Genice brainstorm Eden's Gate. Both projects are inspired by their Christian faith. Of course it's going to have similarities, especially when you're the one that's helping her come up with ideas.
What a whole nothing-burger. The discord messages from Genice made me cringe because you can just tell she is bending over backwards to try to appease Genice. The religious manifesto is weird, I'll admit it. I don't get Christfags, but I can't really hold the manifesto against Genice, since it seems that her way of getting out of a
toxic friendship is through her religion. I really hope this doesn't blow up for her. Juby timing this around Genice's shop opening is just nasty

Though really it depends on the intention of the character, however I don't think it matters that much especially when Christians write worse stuff.

I understand what Juby's going through with Genice. I had a friend who stole my designs all the time. I can remember three occasions and she admitted to one and said the other two were coincidences.
But I also kicked that bitch to the curve. Woman-up you fucking loser. Callout post wasn't fucking necessary. Stop spilling your to-do list to anyone who steals from you ONCE. Move the fuck on. Nutjob.

This is actually so scary and disturbing…religious psychosis is real
Yes both juby and genice are batshit insane, but I can understand why juby has been sperging out like that for the past few months. If someone like genice did that to me I’d feel sick, and of course juby isn’t the most sane person ever, so you get this car wreck.
I feel that we were wrong about juby kek, people kept saying she had no real evidence which is why she looked crazy to us, but she did in fact have everything in a little google doc getting ready to show the receipts. Sorry juby our based cow for ever doubting you!
This shows how being silent like genice is the best course of action, since if you do nothing, no one will know how crazy you actually are kek. And I’m not even done reading the doc juby posted yet, I just got to the manifesto part, but I’m convinced already

No. 2498316
>>2498300>juby doing creepy abusive shit to othersThat’s true. I think they’re both crazy but since juby tends to be more vocal and public about it, people may tend to think that she’s the only crazy one, while genice is “smarter” in the way that she tries to keep every drama she encounters as private from public eyes.
So I would’ve never thought that genice was a different kind of batshit crazy if juby hadn’t shared the discord screenshots and that insane manifesto. It’s clear that she did indeed be manipulative, and she knew that she was stealing from juby and that it was wrong since she admitted to it several times, but kept doing it anyway.
The part where she tried to trap juby into publishing Eden’s gate by asking her if she wanted to be included as credits in the book or not was pretty telling kek, either option would still lead to her publishing it
>>2498307Means that the original poster deleted their tweet.
>>2498188> Kek I don’t use Twitter but has Genice labeled Juby’s comments as spam?Nah people can’t automatically block or mark certain words as spam, even if it’s listed under their mute list.

I'm not gonna read all that right now, does the doc give an excuse for her posting the call out now (like how when she specified Genice's name on bluesky her excuse was that Genice had tried to defend herself to a mutual acquaintance) or is she just acting like she didn't spend multiple months screeching out those ultimatums?

She's like 27/28 so she's still in the window where schizophrenia starts to appear for young adults. Juby's probably not aware that Genice needs to go to an inpatient facility stat since she's got mental issues of her own by the way she annotated the manifesto shit as if Genice had written her some
toxic Twitter rant and not 10 pages of schizophrenic delusions. If someone wrote a manifesto with that much focus on me as a person I'd be freaked the fuck out.

Someone a decade older than her was hounding her like this for weeks over a literal non-issue.
>but if she never posted the callout, genice probably would’ve continued to release edensgarden which is plagiarized work, and probably for profit tooThe design and vague story elements she took aren't enough to make it plagiarism. Not to mention that in her manifesto she says at the end that she won't do Edensgate anymore (or that she'll have to redo it fully if she tried it again) and that Juby can have her thing.

>Even if art would become a niche thing then so what? None of us need a billion followers/clients to survive on art, all you really need is a few passionate fans and we're all clearly very passionate about art. And even if it's not a full-time job or anything, it being free…Maybe I would be okay with this if the quality of life didn't feel like it was getting worse. I just can't have this acceptive attitude towards creative jobs or income from it potentially becoming limited. The masses don't care about whether art is AI or not either, as long as it's "passable", so the protections towards artists will be limited to non-existent.

>>2499615Sure it’s not plagiarism but it’s obviously copied and if someone who had been my friend for years start copying a personal project of mine which she also had exclusive access to and eventually release a story like that for profit, it wouldn’t feel good. Genice admitted that she regularly copies from other artists including her mutuals, and what she did to juby’s project awc was too far for the usual “you inherently copy traits from arts you like all the time and that’s ok”, so I think a callout post was probably warranted, I’ve seen callout posts from chinese artists for less to be fair. And juby told her to stop many times and she tried to keep it offline, so i think genice kinda dragged her down with her by releasing that mentally ill manifesto because if it weren’t for that I’d think more people would side with juby kek.
But without the manifesto, her callout would probably be a whole lot weaker I guess? Because it would just look like your typical friendship fallout drama due to copying and overstepping boundaries. That would still be a good reference for if genice ever publishes edensgate, like a “hey this project has been heavily copied by my project despite many calls to stop, so please don’t support it, also she is a serial copier so if you’re mutuals with her watch your back, your oc and projects could be next” type of thing

Everybody agrees that it doesn't feel good to be stolen from by a friend but the proper way to deal with this was to kick that untrustworthy bitch to the curb and move on with your life. Juby instead has been malding daily for half a year. You should listen to her 7 hour stream where she airs Genice's entire dirty laundry and says things like her parents don't deserve such a shit daughter.

>>2499860This shit happened to me in my personal life, I was spiraling so fucking hard after literal years of taking shit and trying to be a "good person" about it, but I snapped when I got SA'd and became pretty
toxic for a while. A bpdchan friend of mine decided to collect receipts of me spiraling under an alias and sent them to everyone I knew and I lost all of my friends. I was acting kind of fucked to be fair, but also to be fair to me, when I was forced out of that social group and met new people, they treated me way better and I mysteriously slowly began to stop displaying those
toxic behaviors. So seeing genice's clear mental illness being noted by people and thinking Juby is kind of an unempathetic sociopath herself brings me great secondhand catharsis. Sometimes, people just aren't really as bad as your

>>2499873>It wasn’t just this but story beats and structure as well as character personalities and goalsThat's what she says, on that point she hasn't shown any proof of plagiarism other than 2 drawings (and the "stolen tweet"). Genice "admitting" to that is meaningless without proof since Juby by her own admission coached and mentored her on her story. For all we know Juby is the one who could have told Genice to go with the supposed story beats, personalities and goals that she now accuses her of stealing from her. And what Juby says doesn't seem very trustworthy to me, she is obviously deeply mentally ill. Her entire outlook on this situation is "psychopathic narcissistic abuse" of which she is the poor widdle
victim.
>Releasing edensgate But Genice hasn't, that's the point. And in her manifesto from six months ago she even tells Juby that she won't release it anymore. Why is she still losing her shit? If Genice never releases this thing (or releases it heavily modified) this is literally a fictitious issue.

Why do so many early 90s millennial moids have this art style? What is the origin point? It just screams "I grew up with megaman and pokemon and became an adult jerking off to porn of the underage characters while having lukewarm contrarian opinions on internet forums and deviantart while having a specific uninterested nerdy female artist I was obsessed with, then I may or may not have become a tranny 2018".

>>2499898At the core of this issue is the fact that Juby is 10 years older than Genice and this friendship started from a position of mentor/older sister/idol as a 29 year old to a 19 year old, this friendship was never on equal ground. Juby is a mentally ill retard or a narcissistic abuser if she can't see the significance of this dynamic for herself. Genice obviously looked up to Juby and to have your idol accuse you of being evil just for being inspired by them must have fucked her up. Juby seems to be aware of Genice's personal history
>>2498453 growing up in a conservative Chinese church, and used that against her. Genice's manifesto doesn't even come across as a mentally ill schizo ramble, it looks like a deeply religious defense from her in a reaction to Juby's goading. I'm glad twitter isn't on Juby's side either.
No. 2500031
>>2500021yeah it seriously bothers me that people try to dismiss genice as '25 year old minor' – the point isn't that she's 25, it's that juby predated on her when she was 19 and basically creatively groomed her and then pulled a hell of a lot of spiritual abuse on her.
it also is annoying me how people take juby's accusations for copying as a fact because wtf, to me everything genice did with her 'designs' is just typical inspirations. juby doesn't own the concept of ribbon wings (it's a VERY common anime/video game trope) nor does juby own the red/black color palette (also a common anime/video game grope) and any claims that genice cribbed her personal project is suspect because a) there's no personal project released to compare, and b) genice already agreed SHE WON'T RELEASE IT in its current form without a lot of revising
juby supposedly mentored/coached genice on her project so she'd have to prove that genice listening to her input somehow means plagiarizing and I have NO idea how someone can pull that off
even if genice did maliciously copy juby's oc's…. girl, fucking grow up and move on, character designs look similar sometimes and the concept of color theory exists to be used by everyone.
juby is a textbook narcissistic abuser, I hope the pushback builds
No. 2500080
>>2500062>>2500065Dont be obtuse, acknowledging the life experience/maturity gap in someone who just turned into an adult is not the same as equating them to a child.
While I agree Juby shouldn't be treated as some groomer nonce, Juby is definitely painting Genice as some irredeemable psycho sociopath that manipulated her, a disabled poor widdle
victim, when she too is a grown ass adult who should've cut Genice off the moment she started doing "plagiarism" and only take public action should Genice actually relased her project which she didnt and implied to have cancelled in her manifesto

Due to how religious my family is I constantly get told that I've grown up in a cult environment and that my parents were
abusive for not letting me have boyfriends while in school or for monitoring what i wore. Yet still, at 16 asking mommy and daddy for money or for rides got old super fast so I decided to chase my own independence.
>>2500054Like I said, just because you realise things slower that doesn't mean it's the case for everyone else. At 14-15 I was aware of that fact that I had an undiagnosed mental illness so I made decisions in my life that I knew I'd be able to handle since I can't function like most people. I get that with wisdom comes age but acting like you're barely above vegetable at 19 is beyond infantilising. It's the treating us like we're 5 that's the issue.

I archived most of her streams from late December to late March (I think I might be missing one or two) and of the 17 streams I downloaded, she ranted about Genice in most of them. Her rants go from being 10-20 minutes long to spanning literal hours. In those rants, she constantly name drops Genice and calls her soulless, cancer, a parasite, not a real christian, says she feels bad for Genice's family for having such an awful daughter (mind you, Juby has met Genice's family on multiple occasions), etc. and basically implies she thinks Genice is going to go to hell because she stole from Juby. Like the other anon said, she's also been vagueposting about Genice on twitter and instagram for over half a year now. Juby has also mentioned that she's literally trying to get Genice blacklisted in the industry by telling everyone she knows about what Genice did
>>>/ot/2330961 . She's been a mentor/friends with Genice for almost a decade, and she's doing all of this because she thinks Genice stole three things from her. There's a difference between plagiarism and being inspired. Artists "steal" from each other all the time, i.e. they take elements they like and make them their own. From what I've seen in Juby's own callout post, Genice falls in the latter category. As sanctimonious as she likes to be, I bet if you go through Juby's own work with a fine comb, you'll find elements she lifted from other sources.

on the topic, it reminds me that Juby also had contracts with big industries like marvel but ended up leaving in bad terms because she aired out her grievances and openly slandered marvel in her twitter call out post (sounds familiar?) it seems like she had a built up vendetta because Genice landed a job at
trigger and still maintains a good connection + sells merch of the ip she worked for to this day.

Picrel is one of the racist caricatures from the jim crowe era, provided purely for backing up that perspective of its offensive nature. If it were kept to Japan in Japanese, it'd be less of an issue. Once the west happens upon it, then I think the reaction has a considerable backlash.

Normie artists are horrid at writting female characters, but in a subtle way that doesnt allow you to rightfully criticize them for not giving a fuck, it sucks. The revolting trend of writting women as perfect flawless gorlbosses has fortunately passed, but was hastily replaced with a new kind of cancer, because now female characters are "messy" and "toxic" and evil and whatnot, but still not in a particularly meaningful or interesting way, you can see them get pushed to the side by their own creator. If theyre straight they get reduced to being their boyfriends hot adorned wife, and if theyre lesbians somehow even less personality and humanity is allowed to them, they get called shit like 'toxic yuri', basically reducing the said character and her girlfriend to one amalgamination rather than separate conscious players. God the stench, I can fucking smell it.

And because neither is knowledgable about the other (and sometimes not knowledgable about their own stance so they make up bullshit talking points), they're not really debates they're just talking at each other thinking the other is a fuckwit.

I'm so fucking salty about the artists that Capcom hired for the megaman comics. These people do shit that is either insanely bad or just short of acceptable, that I feel like we've been cheated out of something good. The worst part is that the things I want to complain about (specifically on this cover) are such non-issues to the mindless moid fanbase. Anime huffers don't seem to care when something is anatomically fucking awful, so me complaining about it anywhere makes me seem super shallow. But even upon announcement, everyone in the artist side of the community had mentioned "why didn't Capcom just hire literally one of the well-established fanartists???" I could name drop at least 4 other artists they could've hired but this mystery literal who (likely has established works in places I don't care to look) was hired instead and now everyone is going to accept his garbage and the WONDERFUL Iyan Flynn's writing as canon. I'll never be able to escape from it, and I know that if he does some bullfuckery like make Ciel and Leviathan a lesbian, it's going to fuck the balance of focus from touching moments of the series to this slop.
