pimikyuu on instagram. These characters are totally rip offs, especially the one on top, she even gave him the same name. She used to be super milky but has deleted her accounts and started over so many times, the worst thing I can think of was she once used the n word on one of her posts and got a ton of hate for it. Used to be friends with Holly Brown, hasn’t done anything milky in a while but her and her friends are cringy and gross.

No. 477582
>>477481I guess I can see your point, anon, but there's still somewhat of a difference between what Tearzah draws/used to draw and what the image you posted is. Idk if Vampiricdoll has any other artwork with gore in it, so if I'm wrong ignore me, but what you posted is just that,
gore. A character being cut or beheaded or whatever, without any context saying if they did it to themselves, and without any backstory saying the piece was about depression/vent art, isn't glorifying self harm or romanticizing it. At most, it's a shock piece, which is silly, but not romanticizing anything.
On the other hand, Tearzah is known to draw characters with very obviously self harm-related scars/wounds, OCs representing her and her boyfriend pulling each others guts out (imo with a suicide implication), and she directly references depression/mental health/suicide in their themes/characters with little depth, using it as an "UwU I'm so edgy and cool" crutch.
There's a big difference between the two. Saying they're the same is like saying slasher movies are glorifying homicide.

Sick of seeing this "ADHD Alien" on my timeline. She makes "relatable" comics about her ADHD but they usually just amount to "pwease don't be mean to me i have ADHD… i'm stupid…". She even draws herself as an alien which ironically just seems like she wants people to alienate her and ADHD people more.
I personally have ADHD and I feel like her comics have every ADHD person pegged as either a dumbass or a some genius savant. And as if non-ADHD people could ~never understand~ bingeplaying a game or not feeling motivated to do work.

Ranges of severity are not really acknowledged well even within disability communities, it's why you see huge disagreements between people with mild and severe forms of autism, about whether cures should be researched.

The story itself is really hard to follow and seems to just flip flop between scenes. Also sometimes there were shots that were on screen for less than a second, which is no time at all, and just added to the headache.
Also in general the character designs are kind of naff. They're really samey and honestly it's very hard to tell the characters apart. Their silhouettes are all pretty much identical, except from the guy voiced by stamper, but that's it. Honestly hope this doesn't go anywhere it was a clusterfuck for the eyes.

Found this cow of an artist (@d91live on twitter and ig).
Look at how shit the anatomy and expressions are. I would've believed some 12 year old drew this. If you look at his instagram he talks like he's a bigshot artist.
He draws fanart of franchises or of popular artists' characters and calls them "d91 crossovers" as if they agreed to work with him or something.
Also from what I gathered from his social medias this fucker is over 30 years old and still lives with his parents.
Also he's a musclehead and brags like it's air on his twitter about his muscles and how much chicks love it.

>modern art BAD because scribbles and urinals!!
Honestly anons, do the people who reeee over modern art actually bother learning what modern art encompasses? It’s not all conceptualism and minimalism, we’re currently in contemporary which has a huge amount of styles within it.

>>478988Becca is STILL bitching about the Jetpens PR snub? Jesus Christ you'd think a grown ass woman in her thirties would get over a rep from a company telling her that her shitty, muddy art isn't good enough. She just whined about this in some deleted tweets not even two weeks ago. Is this a common thing for her? Has Jetpens become the chip on her shoulder? IIRC they didn't even say anything particularly negative about her or her work, just that she wasn't the audience they were going for (because Jetpens is a stationary shop first and an art supply store second) because they wanted calligraphers/writers/stationary heads.
Her sub-1000 views per month channel did not help 'popularize' Jetpens and she's delusional for believing so. JP was popular among calligraphers, stationary collectors and artists on Youtube for years before she came along. Nobody is thinking about her like that.
A while ago I thought Becca was one of the few genuinely sweet and easygoing artists on YT. It's disheartening to see her for her true colors. Whiny, entitled and too knuckleheaded to buckle down and create things people actually want to see. But no. She's too dead set on shoving her self-insert 'all ages comic' in everyone's faces and selling penny candy commissions.
Buying things from a store does not entitle you to anything beyond getting to buy things from a store. A business doesn't owe you shit just because you gave them 'free advertisement'. I know Becca has ADD or whatever but she needs to grow up.

No. 479057
>>479054Depends on what they were trying to study? If they meant to study the lighting they did a pretty good job (the light is warmer in theirs, but the source is the same and hits the same planes). Obviously they stylised the proportions and perspective pretty heavily, so if they were trying to study those they missed the point.
A lot of people use the term "study" a bit loosely though, because it has more prestige than just calling it a copy, redraw or something like that.

Not to bring up this vaguecow again but I knew something milky would come out of d91live's charity commission drive.
It ended today and he claims he raised $380 (well over the goal of $250).
Let's do the math. He had a (now deleted) post pricing his charity commissions at $15 each, which means he had to have done at least 25 commissions. However on his instagram he's only posted TWO commissions, ie $30 worth of charity money.
He really thinks people wouldn't notice the huge gap in what donations he got and how much he claims he raised?

I think the comic itself and the pacing is shit, though.
Also this thread talks about bad art all the time. Sakimi-chan's stuff is brought up frequently but she's not a cow, for example. Literally the posts above are talking about weird girls with giant ears art but the artist doesn't have any notable cow tendencies. I don't know what makes people nitpick what is posted in this thread so much, people used to sperg about discussing art advice too so it was just added to the title months ago so people quit bitching.

Since we're on the topic of webcomics- anyone here heard of Gloomverse? The creator herself isn't much of a cow (not that I've seen, anyway) but the comic itself seems to have stagnated a little. Despite hiring two colourists (who are.. just two of the creator's bffs) there's dodgy colouring on every other page, and so much of the dialogue seems choppy and just.. off somehow. It's hard to explain if you haven't read.
Also, both of the colourists have fugly art. This is a 'guest cover' one of them did, and somehow the colours manage to be one of the worst parts.

>>480983If Becca doesn't like random people telling her how wrong she is about her weekly Jetpen/weh gib more patreon buxs bitchings then maybe she should private her Twitter.
I like how she implies that she's doing all this giving to the art community with no reciprocation on her part. This broad is delusional. She's are not this skilled caregiver who's planting foundation for the whole community to thrive from. She's a struggle artist that runs dollar store booths at cons and draws a muddy watercolor comic nobody reads. When you go to a dozen cons a year, advertize like crazy and still have a <10k YT channel, then the problem isn't the community. It's you.
"Oh it's Nattosoup. We're gonna do so much better than her this weekend." <- People say this because of her reputation of being an obnoxious, entitled tryhard. You don't deserve things just because you do things. It all comes down to the merits in what you've done. Not that you've done it.

Sort of disappointed she did that art for Hazbin Hotel since HH and Vivzie is such a cow and I'm quite surprised since with all the discourse Vivzie and HH have endured on social medias I'm sure KG wouldn't want to be associated with it.
That being said KG has a weird tryhard edgy kind of persona on her instagram and twitter that I find pretty cringey.
She takes a lot of "ugly" selfies making "scary" faces with dark filters over them and somehow still has scene hair in 2019.
I remember when she was on Game Grumps Doodle Doodz where Ross introduced her (how she gained most of her clout she has now) and she was VERY shy and awkward. Her persona she makes herself out to be is nothing like her actual self.

Also about Hazbin Hotel, I watched it, not at all something I would support or enjoy because as I said, it's tryhard 2007 tumblr furries with cringy sex "jokes", but I still applaud them for actually managing to make a 30-minute animated pilot episode happen without major studios.

Glad I'm not the only one who thought this. I love her art but the persona she tries to put out is kinda obnoxious.

I mean, c'mon, beeing self-employed means you should know when to stop specific projects, esp. when they're not profitable.
There are so many artist out there trying to get by, and they just know shit about business/ beeing a salesperson and manager of your own products. If you can't handle this, stop complaining and get a day job and do art just as an hobby.

>>481531A lot of artists I follow just have tutorials and process videos on their patreon, which is even more practical than Skillshare.
I guess IRL classes have a different audience than online ones, though; it's usually young kids/teens with clueless parents, older women just getting into drawing and retired older people with lots of free time who take art classes, at least where I live. Those people are more likely to think Becca's art is impressive and that she's got skills to teach, compared to internet-savvy people who probably see enough art everyday to see through her delusions.

why do internet artists feel so entitled to products? if you don't own something, maybe save up so you can buy it instead of begging your followers to buy it for you?
she's been doing traditional art forever and suddenly "boohoo i used a laptop track pad help me buy a tablet" and then also tries to guilt people more by saying she's gonna move out of her mom's house soon so she wants funds to hold herself over lol which most likely won't even happen, she just wants free money for unnecessary shit.

>>481645Sage for incoming sperging.
Yup. It was pretty juvenile with an underdeveloped story and uninteresting/underdeveloped characters. There is no depth to this show, nor to the humor, which is only swearing and sex jokes. Vivzie could've added a lot of interesting, subtle references and humor, but the only part that was remotely like that was the Jeffrey Dahmer reference. Some of the character designs were dreadful, especially the gray bartender with wings (ABSOLUTE CRINGE) and the radio demon. The character designs also differentiate too much between one another. There is no consistency between them to determine that they are supposed to be from the same show. The design for the radio demon is just fucking lazy. She could've given him a vintage look but instead she made him look like an early 2000s emo Deviantart OC. It's a clusterfuck on a bland foundation. I did like the songs though. They were pretty good.

>>481645>>481725"Juvenile" is probably the best way I'd put my thoughts about it. Despite all the edgy designs, swearing, sex jokes and everything it was honestly boring and I found myself tuning out multiple times because for some reason to the point I missed some key plot elements, it seemed like watching someone's roleplay session and not a well-constructed show. Some scenes went on for way too long and the characters seemed to be confined to their chosen tropes which made their interactions seem too predictable. But the voice acting was AMAZING for indie show standards and the animation at times was really, really good. I guess I see how it has an audience but I'm just not one of them, especially the art style doesn't appeal to me at all. Nevertheless the screenwriting for the pilot could've definitely used a few revisions before going into production.

No. 481773
>>481766Well I had a sort of small nervous breakdown over it, so that was how I knew! I'll try to break down the details for you though:
For a start, I was really really unhappy with my living situation. I'm single so I could only depend on my own income, and because I was working a crappy part time service job to have time to pursue my art 'career' I was only just scraping by. I just started to look at my living standards and think… this is tolerable if it's temporary, but what if the art NEVER works out? What if I wake up years from now at the age of 45 and I'm STILL living in one room in a shared house with nothing to show for all this work? I had been failing to make money for a few years already, so I had to start seriously considering the possibility that I would NEVER be able to make it work and ask myself if I was okay with the consequences if that happened. The answer was no, I was not okay with that, so I had to make sure that WOULDN'T happen. That meant I had to earn more money somehow.
I already knew the work I wanted to make wasn't selling despite my best efforts, so my options were basically become a degenerate furry artist for the cash or get a real job. I also already knew from the few commissions I did get that making art I wasn't interested in was MORE depressing than the service job. When I was at art school my tutors always said 'if you start making work you hate for the money, just quit and become an accountant. You'll still hate the work but you'll make a lot MORE money.' That started to look like really good advice, so I started looking for a normal full-time job. (Although not as an accountant.)
On top of all that, doing art for myself wasn't even fun anymore. It had USED to be something I enjoyed more than anything else (like you), but it had got so tangled up with the feelings of failure and rejection that it was only making me miserable. That was a huge loss to me and it was worth more to me to enjoy making art again than to be able to say I was a 'professional'.
Realizing all of this was pretty brutal at the time, it completely destroyed my image of myself (see: minor nervous breakdown). BUT now I have a normal office job that I'm good at, I'm saving up money for a nicer place to live, and I like drawing again because it doesn't have all that baggage attached to it. I even still try to sell some of my work, but now if that never works out for me it won't matter, because being an 'artist' doesn't carry my whole identity anymore.
Apologies to the other anons for the blog post, but that's the story of how I actually took the advice and got a real job and now I'm a million times happier.
P.S. I think my art is better for it too because now I have the breathing space to take my time, do studies etc.
No. 481774
>>481766I think it depends on what you want to do. Be careful of pursuing art for a living if what you want is making art for youself and live of it.
I work in the animation industry, doing storyboards for a show that.. i don't like. I do what I love in the sense that i get to draw everyday, but i'm not drawing what I want because there's very few people who get to just do their own art for a living.
It also depends on the kind of person you are, for some people it is healthier to keep a day job and make art on the side.
I don't really like the 'get a real job' narrative, just try to be realistic with where you want your career to go. thats my take on it anyway
No. 481776
>>481774Yeah I'd agree with this take, now that I've had the nervous breakdown I think being honest with yourself is the key.
I had this image of myself as an ~artist~ who would sacrifice everything for their passion, but in reality I like to live comfortably and don't want to sacrifice shit. I'm also not the kind of person who can be happy drawing stuff I don't like, so for me it was 'healthier to keep a day job and make art on the side' in the end.
It's all about being clear on what's important/necessary to the real you, and not getting misled by what's important to your fantasy vision of yourself.

>>481804The animation style could use some work. I know it's subjective, but the show looks the decent when it has characters snapping into pose and the floaty shit looks horrible. I also hate how when characters turn around they don't have inbetweens, but just flip like they're 2d paper. The animation is so shit you just kind of think it's some indie game cutscene and the real action is going to start any minute. The cheap visual style could work, but they should have thought it out more so it had a nice aesthetic or didn't look 'cheap'
The biggest problem is the show is stuck between being 'it's shit on purpose. It's so dumb no one on this project cares' and trying to have a genuine plot. It'd be decent if they just turned every character into master shake and turned it into an asshole epitat battle royal
Also this is how they communicate how characters moving in 3d space

>>481819Yeah, I'd fucking kill to know what went on behind scenes. I think another problem was that they simply weren't ready for a project this size. If you look at there normal work it has the floaty style and narration for a reason, most of the float parts are 5 seconds long. The youtube videos manage to have a good cheap aesthetic, but it got fucked up in the episodes. Also looking through there channel they gave an animated cartoon to a group of people who don't make animations, but more heavy after effects tweeing.

>>481506>>481544Me neither. On the one hand it implies that the woman is lazy, but on the other it intentionally draws the tranny really masculine? So they don't view trannies favorably and view them as having an unfair advantage, but also portray the female athletes as whiny. The fuck are they even trying to say. It looks like they're just trying to portray the most negative aspects of both sides.
I think they're siding with trannies because the woman is speaking in all caps and the title is "terf idiot", but honestly it's anyone's guess what the fuck she's trying to say. The again, she has other pictures like pic related where she conflates being gay with wanting to fuck bugs, so who the hell knows.

she is mainly being brought up for other reasons such as the fact she's just a shitty person in general, would draw borderline pedophilic art, make obnoxious strawman argument comics and post gross tmi photos on twitter of photos of her infected wounds shes scratched open because she genuinely thinks that's erotic somehow?

>>481778Tbh as someone who also had a similar “did art school, had minor breakdown, now has day job and does art on the side” as other anon, the earlier you decide your backups the better. Like it’s taken me a long time to discover I want to work tangentially to an art career (like I went to school for illustration but working more on marketing and trying to learn 3D on the side) so i feel a lot better than like thinking “it’s all or nothing” when I didn’t make it enough when I was younger and killing my self. I find a lot of kids enter and graduate art school like Becca, like they think they’re entitled to an art job and success by the virtue of having an art degree when the reality is that it’s so much work that it doesn’t matter if you have the degree or not, it’s all about your portfolio and the work you produce. And sometimes most art schools are just diploma mills (like I think Becca went to scad) so they usually don’t care and pass you anyway.
I think it’s a lot easier now than it has been to navigate the art landscape especially with social media and all, so in general it’s lot easier to make it on art and develop a style. But I think Becca’s problem is sort of like a lot of arttubers or IG artists where she’s trying to brute force a shitty style that lacks a ton of fundamentals and doesn’t show any knowledge of the market they’re trying to enter. Like becca clearly wants to do children’s comics and shit around that but other than her lack fo skills in style, she lacks illustration knowledge to make things that can be easily reproduced. Illustration is about mass reproduction and a muddy watercolor isn’t going to photograph or copy well for paperbacks.

>>482002>>481778I also realized that my area of art doesn't really have an age barrier? Most of the really famous people in my field didn't get started until they were in their 40s, so as long as I keep up my portfolio I can get back into it at basically any time. The office job I work now would have been much harder to get into the longer I went with no work experience, so it made more sense to start building the office experience now and put art on the back burner.
I think once you decide what your backup options are (like if you'd be happy working in storyboards or graphic design, or if you'd rather have a totally non-art-related day job) you can work out what skills you'll need and which ones you should work on first.

Becca. What are you doing right now that's keeping your life from being 'your' life? You don't have an industry job. You do not have any job, actually.
It sounds like she's complaining about having to teach, how she has absolutely no time to work on her long-term comic project because she 'needs' to travel and go to cons. IIRC aren't cons kind of a every so often kinda thing for most professional artists? Either buckle down and do commissions regularly and drop the teaching that's not going anywhere and work on your comic or get a damn job. Pick something.

No. 482421
>>482390Is it bad that I don’t believe a word of this? Her videos had zero clue of this, none of her tweets or posts did, and being as her videos were always so open about ‘the struggle of the artist’, she should definitely bring up her mental health but never did. Her artistic journey after her divorce was cool, I liked it, but this ain’t it chief.
Pulling out your own IV is a little much, that hurts when you don’t do it right, and can cause actual damage, and a patient with known psychological issues doing it? That is big no-no, she just gave that hospital full reign to petition the court and have her committed for real (unless she was in the emergency room, different rules there). Also, crisis centers very rarely have psychiatrists, they more likely have psychologists, the difference being the later can’t prescribe mediation, but the former can and are people with actual doctorates.
This has been going on for so long, I think since spring. How is she getting money? Is she getting unemployment? She claims she doesn’t have insurance and can’t afford a hospital visit over what she thought was a heart attack, so she risks death by leaving? Does anyone have her patreon; if so, what goes on in there? Does she even make art anymore?
Even further, in earlier posts she claimed she was learning things about her past with her father that was giving her PTSD. Unearthing abuse from memories you ‘forgot’ is super sketchy, they don’t even accept that kind of testimony in court, so basing your mental breakdown on it is sus as fuck. Especially when you claim they are about your father and yet your online persona is still a direct reference to him (Sealark is a reference to her father’s boating hobby, I believe?). There’s too many holes in her story to make me think this is all that is going on, if at all.

Pathetic.
Half of /ic/ are cumbrained losers who only want to learn enough art to they can draw their own degenerate faprags. If Achooshi were a 13 year old girl drawing lolicon she'd be their new queen.
Speaking of overgrown children.
>>482441This was genuinely hard to get through. You can tell from Becca's chipper, smiley tone in the beginning that she's geeking out over having someone besdies her go on and on about herself for once. You can tell by the way he speaks that he feels a level of obligation with helping her with her 'career'. He looks annoyed and disengaged. He even seems to be fed up with just how much unused crap Becca has lying around.
I like how Becca calls herself an 'extrovert'. She doesn't seem like so much of an extrovert as a pest who can't close her mouth. Like someone who is more squirrely and busybody than genuinely personable. Someone who believes they're the life of the party, when in reality nobody likes them. That's what she seems like to me.
I'm really worried about Becca's future plans of getting married and having babies. I can just imagine the bitching she'd spill, having to take care of a newborn while shilling her shitty comic. Taking a baby carrier to conventions because she just gotta sell those 1 dollar commissions. She might even guilt trip the baby for not allowing her to draw her comic because she needs to feed them.

Both of them have massive egos and Becca is arguably slightly worse for being as old as she is and still behaving this way.

>>482610You have a clear style of big, bushy hair, Victorian dress, with some sort of story-telling element. Those seem to be your favorite parts since you put much more dedication in them than other parts of the piece. My advice is do some of the boring drawing-from-life stuff, or get a large file of pose references and use those as jumping pads over the dresses and the hair. I can tell you are trying to convey an emotion of deviousness in the first piece, but it isn't reading very well due to how stiff the figure is. Honestly, not just 'study anatomy', because you will do that the rest of your art life. More 'learn to copy.' You clearly have some sort of skill, I love the linework in the first piece you posted, but you do seem to rely of pre-made brushes over doing the lines yourself, so maybe go traditional for a while and get used to holding a pencil confidently. That's all I got for now.

Liefeld's only crime was that he art sucked and he whined when someone made one of his characters bisexual (which he's since backtracked on anyway).
Campbell on the other hand is completely irreverent and refuses to accept ANY criticism. A few years ago there was a controversy where a Native American woman called him out for fetishizing the little NA girl from Peter Pan getting kidnapped and tied up. Instead of just apologizing and moving on, he started a slapfight with her on Twitter. Real classy.
When are people going to learn that Twitter only causes them to embarrass themselves? I've made a personal policy of only posting art there and not opinions/arguments/blog/etc.

>>482671You can already buy digital versions of many comics from them.
But I think it's very tied to "nerd" culture and consumerism. If you go into any comic book shop today, it'll be filled with mostly merch near the registers, and comics will usually be at the back. Children and their parents and merch collectors come into the shop for merch first and foremost, but they might also spend a good amount of money on comics of their favourite character/whatever character just had a new movie (and the staff at the shop will usually push for that and shill all the comics for one character to people who obviously don't know much about comics).
To a lesser extent, a lot of people who still actually buy western comics instead of reading them for free online are older men who aren't very internet-savvy, or who really care about having a physical collection.
You wouldn't get those sales from digital comics. From what I know of that model it's successful with weekly webtoons, especially in Korea, which has a very different audience and release schedule compared to Big Two comics.
There's probably a lot more complicated stuff at play (agreements with Diamond Comic Distributors, agreements with comic book shops and other retailers, the value of a physical comic for collectors), too. I don't know how major it is but there's an issue with Marvel pushing comic book shops to order large quantities of some unpopular titles, which means Marvel technically makes a high number of sales and makes money from the title, but the shops lose a whole lot. You wouldn't be able to pull that trick with digital-only.

My advice: calm the fuck down and actually read what the person is writing before you write and post meaningless stuff on this forum
I mean, the guy literally advised the artist that the figure is a little too stiff, that the pic is rather boring because there isn’t much action- you can say no shit, it’s because MJ is taking a selfie, but even a selfie can be interesting if composed well.

was in the right. J Scott Campbell has absolutely
zero right to be criticizing people for anatomy. One of his shitty drawings literally went viral because of how garbage the anatomy was!

Then we get them trying to bring in “new” artists but they just bad and boring on the other spectrum, they’re all people who do illustrations better than full comics like Jacqui or Jen bartel or Gabriel picolo.

>>482795I think it's those noses she draws. Her characters have this anime look but big gnome noses. It's that poor blend between anime and western art common in the late 90s.
Seeing her favorited videos and artbook collections she clearly loves anime art (she even got a Touhou book) so I don't get why she doesn't go full traditional watercolor anime with it. She can even give them the kind of realistic backgrounds she likes, but she needs to get her style in shape, these american/japanese mutt artstyles hardly ever look good and end up looking like a poor how to draw manga book.
Her booth is honestly one I would never stop by (full of original art in a unappealing western-anime fusion style) she needs to take down her ego and evaluate if objectively she herself would buy her own things (out of want, not out of wanting to support another for her own benefit). The art that got her giddy was the most anime, hyperstylized kawaii looking things so my guess is no.

She does have (albeit bitter) teacher qualities and some experience teaching courses. Her art isn't the best but neither is the art of many school art teachers. She's not gonna make it as a con artist so might as well redirect your career path while still doing art?
I get people stop trying to make it and get a random job instead, but that is usually those who don't enjoy teaching and they rather quit the art field than become a jaded school teacher but she's one of the few artists who says she likes teaching, so what's the problem here?

>>483188I'm new to Becca and her bullshit, but I just finished watching
>>482235 this morning and there is a part in there somewhere where she speaks to some HR person (looked it up a bit more and it looks like public school in Louisiana). They don't contact her back at first, but when she speaks to them again they tell her her options are a) pay 10k and go back to school for 2 years to get a certification or b) prove her merit (which she knew would be impossible and I'm sure the HR person just wanted her to fuck off lol). She's trying and failing, like with all of her endevors. She should just settle for applying to private schools- the pay is worse but it's more stable than anything she's currently bringing in I bet.
OT from above but my gripes with her whole video is how she feels like she'd owed like an anon above stated. When she spoke about her cats passing, she mentioned how much it cost her (I think 3k for one cat, and 2k for the other) but the way she said it rubbed me the wrong way- as if she was mad at her cats for costing her that much money even on their way to death. She says that she put up emergency flash commissions for cheap, but only got one. Like, do you not have an emergency fund for your pets?
She also
complains about people sending her stuff. She asks them to not do that because it puts such a strain on her to figure out what to do with it, how to store it, etc. while asking instead that if they want to support her, to give to her patreon or write to art companies to ask them to sponsor her. It comes off as incredibly ungrateful lol. Even if she wants to give a realistic look into what it looks like to make it out in the art field, the negativity does nothing but bite her in the ass. I didn't even know about her until this video was posted on this thread, and even without looking at her art I already wouldn't want to support her- why would anyone want to support someone who's just a big old negative nancy? It's offputting.
After watching the whole thing, I've realized that Becca is a good breath of fresh air to me, in the way that I follow and see so many successful artists and think "I wish I pursued art more seriously, then maybe I could've ended up like them" but in reality I would've probably ended up like Becca. She makes me feel less bad about settling for a normie job so I can enjoy art on the side while not worrying about food on my plate and a roof over my head lol.
No. 483288
>>483210Multiple reasons. The main reason is that they're coping from not being able to buy a tablet. The secondary seems to be that the art community is really strong on the 'anyway is OK!' message, so getting a 'you
need to do this' tip has whiplash. To make the whiplash worse most of the people peddling that advice are very abrasive/rude because they're either extremely cynical from being in the art community or just being an edgy contrarian. When you meet a really abrasive one it brings up bad memories and you disregard any advice given to you that sounds like them
The way they also phrase it is a problem 'you have to get a tablet if you want to be professional'. This goes against the 'you can do anything' message they have been getting. 'It may be hard to become a CEO when you're from a low income neighborhood, but I did it and so can you' changes into 'it may be hard to get a job as an artist using an ipad, but I can through hard work'. Not debating 'you need a tablet' is the first step to accepting 'your dreams can't come true' or to a lighter extent it pops them out of the art world safe space.
Most them also like using a phone and find the idea of using an entirely new software scary. I've seen people defend their use of MSpaint because 'I'm used to it'. Switching softwares and mediums, phone to tablet, also gives you're art a big hit in quality. The hit will go away once you get used to the software, but most of them don't wait out the hit and just go back to phone doodles. A lot of them are also proud of using phones? It's a weird kin ship they have so leaving it feels bad.
My weirder theory is that most of them against it simply don't have the goal to go beyond their phone. I think some casual artist take commissions/join art critique groups only because 'well
good artist are supposed to do that', it's easy, and it aligns with their goals. They keep adding more 'artist are supposed to' till they say 'i want to be a professional'. The problem is they don't go 'professional' because they're hard workers ready to take on the highs and lows of art, but because 'artist are supposed to do that'. Once they hit parts of 'artist are supposed to do that' that don't align with their goals or have substantial effort. they can say 'oh I don't want to go professional' or 'I am "professional" and I don't like this. You can be professional and not do this".

Becca's biggest problem is that her work is just unambitious, mediocre, and boring. If she was just a hobbyist her work would be decent, it's cute and inoffensive, but for a professional it's pretty subpar. Just look at her Twitter, she has over 3k followers and these are the amounts of engagement she gets, and pic related is one of her more successful art posts too. People with 1k or less followers regularly get way more engagement on art posts than her because no one actually follows her for her art. Her work on 7" Kara from the very first pages doesn't look any different from her current art, I think the biggest reason Becca is unsuccessful is because she just doesn't try where it actually matters: the art.

>>483288Honestly, I think the biggest issue is that people who say that advice tend to be the most abrasive/rude about it.
No matter how good your advice is, no one wants to listen to you if you're going to be rude or abrasive about it for no real reason other than being cynical or a tryhard. You can't give "tough love" to someone that you don't know or have absolutely no connection with over the internet, it just comes off as you being a jackass… and many of them are soo self unaware when it comes to that.
Not to mention, they fail to actually explain why. Sure no one is under any obligation to elaborate or explain, but it certainly helps the point when you do.
"You need a tablet to be a professional." can come off as rude and abrasive, and serving no real purpose other than just tablet = professional. Plus, it only contributes to the issue of expensive supplies = good art/professional.
Saying "Having a tablet if you want to pursue being a professional artist is better than your phone because…" actually explains the reasons why having a tablet is preferred over using the phone. It gives them an actual reason to look into a tablet and explains the reasoning behind it other than just tablet= better.

>>483349I’ve yet to see any Procreate art that isn’t made for instagram clout, used as a digital sketchbook, or by a ‘I’m gonna be a real artist!’ type. If in a professional setting, it is required to use some form of software, it is not just because of how the software works, it is file sharing. Between your co-workers, your clients, everyone you interact with is going to need an easy way to access your files, both the saved PNG/JPEG/ or PDF, but the original project file as well. It’s just save as - change file type - done, and you’re on your way.
In the animation class that I aide for, two students had to switch from Procreate to Photoshop on the fly and relearn how to draw with it because Photoshop and Adobe’s Animate were what were used as the main file-sharing type in the class. My current employer has a business partnership with Adobe. Likely my future employers will have the same. Procreate is cool and all, but I’d call it intermediate, not professional. It’s the Copic Ciao of art programs.
No. 483355
>>483354well, procreate can open and save psds, so it's compatible with photoshop. i mainly do traditional art, so the ipad is just more natural to use for me if i have to do digital art, and i can easily send the files over to my computer to finish in photoshop if i have to. obviously procreate is still missing a few features that photoshop has, but it's totally possible to make the same level of quality art on there if you try.
if youre a super professional artist with a lot of disposable income, sure, get that $5000 dual monitor cintiq 32 desktop setup, but for a lot of artists that aren't there just yet an ipad is just a more productive choice.

No. 483368
>>483336NTA but I agree with you 100% and thank god someone said it out loud. One of the reasons why I left art was that everything not being unbelievably rude and petty was seen as "asspats" and usually the people offering (often unsolicited) criticism either had no idea what they were doing or were purposefully trying to hurt someone's feelings. Actual, useful advice gets lost in that sea of cynicism. You could explain that in the industry they use certain programs for the sake of integrity and easy standards so it makes other people easier to pick up something if you're collaborating in a professional scene, but instead people just have to go with the "Get that fucking $2000 cintiq right now retard, what are you, a poorfag?" approach.
>>483299Yeah I think the "casually dressed, cheerful girls smiling in the middle of flowers colored in with beginner copic skills" theme has been played out so much that "unambitious" is the best way to put it. I sort of feel sorry for her because it's obvious she's 100% blind to her own faults and believes in the Disney dream about dreams coming true if you just believe in what you do. Which obviously means never challenging yourself or stepping outside of your comfort zone to try something different.
>>483337Not to nitpick but if you really want to use the Apple pen you really need to get the pro version for proper pen feedback/GPU performance which is a $1000 hit and the pen itself is more than $100 as well, that's admittedly a lot of money to drop on drawing utensils. As for the desktop version of CSP nobody has an excuse as to NOT to buy it, even I could afford the one-time price back when I was broke as fuck.

Not to mention line art in Procreate really sucks compared to SAI, CSP, abd Photoshop. The select tool creates pixel distortion so it's useless for line art.

>>483375I think a lot of Procreate's usefulness comes from how intuitive it is to use. Hand gestures make everything so much easier tbh. I love CSP but using it on the iPad vs Procreate sucks ass.
To go back to an earlier discussion, I sont see the issue with people using their phones to make art when they're just hobbyists. If some smarmy pro swaggered up to my comments telling me I'll never git gud unless I buy a cintiq and an overpriced Adobe subscription I'd tell them to fuck off, too. People who want to go pro will eventually realize on their own that the tools they are using are limiting them and upgrade in their own time, but honestly, most artists online view professional = lots of followers and likes on IG, so.

HH has so many things wrong with it, but of course Vivz can't take any criticism.
Also, I'm not good with spotting animation errors, but does the animation look better in the spinoff, or is it just me? What the fuck, Vivz? You're not an established animator working in the animation industry. You haven't even released any episodes of HH except the fucking pilot.

She has two mechacon recaps up, but one of them has all the footage of the other one. What's the point? Take the other one down, why are you rehashing everything. She talks to the camera as if she's going to upload in time for anyone to see it (says "hope to see you guys here on friday!") and come by, and there's an embarrassing scene where she's recapping stuff in the bathroom and her mom knocks on the door to say something. Why not just restart what you're saying so your editor can cut out the part where you were interrupted? If she's trying to ham up how much she spent on a video editor to garner pity points, she's not getting any. It just makes her look like a fucking idiot.

Why do all of Vivienne's character designs have to be filtered though dated scene kid sparkledog bullshit? Why is it for hard for her to draw a character with normal hair that doesn't look like a weird mullet or fur?

>>483922It's so frustrating because I really have to appreciate them for making the episode happen but the character designs are so awful and dated. With the radio demon the color scheme is way too dull and he blends so much into the background that literally the only thing I remember about him is the voice (which was a cool trait ngl and the VA did an amazing job), visually I have no recollection about him. Most of the designs went overboard with the snowflake details and were too complicated to be animated consistently. There's a reason character designs get toned down for their animated adaptations. I can't fault her for having a distinct style just because it doesn't appeal to me personally (at all) but the unnecessary amount of complexity affects the consistency.

>>484377I haven't said anything on this topic yet but I sort of see where anon's coming from. I think manga/manga inspired art is fine, but a lot of these digital paintings tend to be very derivative. The girl and water and bishie with wings are the examples they used, but there's also the "myspace angle titty shot", "girl jumping/skipping in front of a cloudy sky because the artist couldn't think of a background", "animu girl in a hat sitting in a field of sunflowers". Also, anime art seems to overuse dutch angles. I swear half of the super rendered, sparkly anime paintings I see have dutch angles. It's like I'm watching Battlefield Earth.
It's not bad artwork, it's just… boring. Cliche. Let's see something different. Like how can somebody painstakingly spend several hours painting something that a million other people have painted identically already? It's reinventing the wheel.

I stopped watching anime because it does look the same. This is because the cheapest labor all draw like their fellow cheap labor. You don’t hire someone to make clothes in a factory because they sew beautiful custom work, you need a body in the line to do their one job and move it along the conveyer belt. And they need to; the gaming industry knows nothing of crunch like anime production does. Even manga production has this problem with weekly series releases of 15-30 pages depending, but usually it is a mangaka working with a small production team of their own, keyed into their style. It is why Hellsing looks nothing like Black Butler in manga form, but have some similarities in anime form. Compare Naruto and Bleach, the manga has differences that the anime does not. Why this doesn’t translate into western weebs making waifu backgrounds is because the simplest style to master is the commercial one, so they go for the the anime style made on the conveyer belt.

Anyone out there wanna talk about artist alley people who have bad art who don’t deserve tables or don’t put in effort?
It’s aggravating when they’re popular af too.
Like the Game Grump’s THREE artist alley booths AT last year’s twitchcon where Ross and ArIn had barely anything and Suzy was the only one really with any stuff.
Ross had a lot more this year but Arin printed a lot photocopies of his old art from the last decade. If you aren’t gonna draw anymore don’t apply for a table. You’re just using it as an autograph spot.
They make enough money and have enough fame to just get a vendor booth and sell game grumps merch instead of taking from small artists trying to make a name for themselves.
No. 485280
>>485277Because everyone and their brother with or without an online art presence talks about conventions? There are more conventions than general anime ones with artist alleys. Your local flea market/ farmers market/ antique show probably has an artist alley. It is a major part of the commercial art sphere as a whole, beyond anime. You clearly need to broaden your horizons if you say “artist alley” but only think of anime or comic conventions.
>>485272Yeah, this is a glorified autograph space. They clearly looked at their audience, where they go during cons, and said ‘Lets go there!’ to draw attention. That empty table looks so sad.

It's not the creator's obligation to create a show specifically tailored to any one group. And besides, you're basically saying that "everyone has been represented except for Salvadoreans boohoo", what? Mexicans, Polish, Native Americans, Indians, Arabs, Muslims, Jewish – where are THEIR representations?

>>485455Tbh like they pretty much know people will go to see THEM and not just the art, the art’s just an excuse to give them a table and not like an actual “featured” booth or space cuz twitch con doesn’t do that. Like Jacqui had a table when twitch con was in SJ, I don’t think she streams as much as she did but people went to see her anyway. So it isn’t really about art, they know they’re Internet personalities and the art is a side thing so they don’t need to prove anything with art.
(Plus imo, Suzy is the best artist out of all of them anyway and she gets the most shit cuz the fandom is shit. She’s in charge of all their merch and it’s been super on point, especially her own store)

this is so lazy and derivative of low tier ultra consensual social media relatability unjokes, with nothing added. pure supermarket-bought sliced bread with nothing on top and when I get depressed and aimlessly browse the internet and find shit like this I feel my intestines coat themselves with gluten.
I am not kidding when I say this shit fills me with existential dread. our days on earth are so few and there are so, so many interesting things to try and to learn and so many places to visit and so much culture to acquaint ourselves with, yet somebody is content with alotting a significant chunk of their time and attention to regurgitating this garbage and broadcasting it and making it their identity ? and other people eat it back up, clumps and all ?
it absolutely revolts, apalls and disgusts me, and I'm even slightly angry and galvanised. I want my life to have the kind of depth that frequenting beautiful books and beautiful paintings can carve inside of you when you consume a nice piece of media whose memory you keep is like a tree or an herb in the inner garden you tend to. I want my insides to be colorful and meaningful, and I also want to be of use and to give back to the world a little piece of the precious things I immerse myself into.
and yet, im just a lazy fucking piece of shit wasting my life on the internet which means I'm not that much better than her, but now I'm so afraid of the black hole that is mediocrity and stagnation that im just going to close lolcow and go make a few gouache studies to try to develop something in me thats worth loving myself for.

The composition is too busy. You can have a busy composition, usually to tell a story or emphasize the fact it is messy in the first place, but there is enough dead space to give the illusion of separation of elements. It took several looks for me to notice the bubbles and the butterflies. There is just so much going on, in so few colors, that elements are getting lost, being found, and being disappointed in their discovery. Those butterflies don’t need to be there at all, and the bubbles are in a rose garden… why? Is this a wedding, or a birthday party? Are they blowing bubbles instead of throwing rice? This isn’t surreal enough to even be
considered pop surrealism, it just seems like she tossed shit in and said ‘fuck it.’ And since that does seem to be her process, making collages and painting them, perhaps a study in both composition and unity may help her work.

>>487355Hush anon, you're going to alert the anti-fujo sperg soon and then we're in for a 80 replies worth of derailing because she can't live in a world where women like something she doesn't find attractive.
No but really, in my experience it's mostly people who knew cringey 14-year old fujo artists back in middle school, or were one themselves, and are trying their best to distance themselves from the scene even if it means being autistic about it. Neither do they really understand why it's so popular and base their viewpoint on the male-forced, semi-intentionally misunderstood narrative about how it's "misogynistic because there are no female characters". The society highkey hates the thought of autonomous female sexuality and recognizing female gaze to begin with, people make a lot of silly but harmless female-targeted YA novels to be the devil's book themselves because they MIGHT have a ~rapey~ relationship in which a dreamy, attractive, caring but a bit cocky fictional male partially pushes himself on the female self-insert, all the while overlooking young boys slapping their meat to porn or fictional women throwing themselves at their dicks. It's something that's been deeply ingrained into our brains, women are ONLY allowed to express sexuality if they're liking the same shit men enjoy.
But yeah, it sucks. Men (and women) get to draw the grossest objectifying oversexualized bullshit with female characters and people roll their eyes at them at worst, but the moment a woman draws smut of two men she's treated like she's committing genocide. As for the ~muh gay baby men being objectified~, I have literally never heard anyone else but female pickmes and fakeboi troons take that stance.

At what point does a "traced art" stop being traced art?
There was a bit of a drama on a forum I occasionally browse where an artist posted a pic of oc and 3 other users said that the pic was traced and other users that seemed to be friends with said artist (I checked their history like a creep lol) defended the artist and said that the pic was referenced and not traced however the other users posted gifs of the pics where it showed what I feel like was traced.
Like a day later artist came back and said sorry that they should have been clearer that they had referanced said pic and just wants to move on and later deleteing their post
however what's bothering me on wheter or not the artist traced since they traced the body of another pic (that was commissioned dunno if changes things) but redrew the mouth and nose and added on clothing, hair and other small details
So what do you think?
traced or referenced

>>489588Saddly its most likely badly referenced. This may not apply in your case, but on discord art servers with a lot of ameutor (NGMI) artist the word refferance is thrown around a lot. To them the word has been bastardised to the point it means "just draw the referance exactly, but in your style. Its only wrong if you copy it by making lines over it". Pose theft is often used by schizoids doing olympic level gymnastics, but it kind if works in this case. They didnt exactly "trace", but the pose is uncanily similar.

>>489588>>489619It's automatically traced if the thing being referenced isn't a photo or a piece of classical art. It's doubly inappropriate if you traced something that someone payed you for like that artist did.
You don't learn dick from tracing contemporaries' work, you just end up copying their mistakes, which is why it's so obvious when something is traced. It's art-inbreeding. It's why I said classical work/masters are the only sensible non-photo thing to trace.
The only thing that is 100% okay to trace is a photo YOU took. If it's someone else's photo, do not trace it (and by trace I mean draw on a layer on top of it).

Also he wears sunglasses indoors. He literally looks like fucking PC principal from Southpark.
Not to sound social-justice-y, but does the way he sexualizes nonwhite women seem gross and creepy to anyone else?
Pic related is Marco Bucci's art. Bucci draws stylized monsters and uses impressionist on purpose for his children's book. He does understand anatomy and how to draw things realistically. Becker thinking Bucci doesn't know anatomy is like Becker thinking Picasso doesn't know anatomy.
>>489765If it's satire, he's not being obvious enough about it. If his idea of making it satire is putting on sunglasses, he's a dumbass. The bragging about all the companies he's worked for makes it seem like he's being serious.
A lot of people aren't viewing it as satire, either. Some of the artists he's critiqued have straight-up said that he damaged their revenue? And the artists he rips on aren't douchebags like Greg Land or J Scott Campbell, they're usually just other people on Youtube who do art tutorials. That James guy he "jokingly" ripped on for instance. Becker's video was WAY more popular than any of James', and that could cause people to avoid James' tutorials, which are his bread and butter.
His inability to write intelligent satire is going to bite him in the ass, because however you slice it he's using his actual name and actual art to say some pretty fucking stupid stuff. That's a fantastic way to get blacklisted.
Also, "Ethan" is a douchebag name. Literally every Ethan I've met has been a fucking tool. It's like "Troy" or "Hunter" in that way.
