You want to know if an artist is tracing?

Honestly I would be careful with the evidence you plan on posting about her. She could've easily just heavily copied the pose because let's face, this overlay misfits in so many places. If you want to prove that she is tracing the proof has to be 1 to 1 match, not "well it's close".

Just cause I think this piece of "evidence" is garbage, doesn't mean I'm riding her dick. I've been the one giving pointers this whole time about how to approach this, since I've called out tracers before and I can tell you but if the evidence shows even smallest possibility that it's just copied and not traced, it's gonna discredit the whole thing. People will use any possible excuse to defend her and if the evidence is bad like in that gif (it doesn't even line up) people will just take that as you (the accuser) being jealous bully and won't care about the rest of the evidence, even if that evidence was valid.

nta the most effective way would be having artists call out what tracing is. esp popular artists because her hugbox are sheeps. i see people convinced more by rokuro saito's response than the stand alone comparison gifs. if soejima himself told her to cut that shit out, her hugbox would be kising his ass.

i already had one of her simps bother me about it, but honestly i still believe it's evidence. if you look st the nose and mouth, they match entirely. on the same twitter i literally say that the whole thing doesn't have to be traced to have tracing in it. that most tracers WON'T trace the whole thing, just parts. and yet they ignore that entirely.. if they're choosing to be dumb blind bitches, that's on them, and doesn't alter the fact that the piece is definitely traced (at least in the parts i mentioned.)

nobody could convince hardcore hugboxies anyway, so it's not FOR them. they would argue her fucking confession. it's for people with eyes who aren't ridiculously biased towards a thief.

Is this a self-post? Regardless, it was a bit boring, pretty basic opinions.

vid summary:
1) black and white conversations (example is tracing, either good or bad)
2) how defensive artists are (example is art styles being "copied")
3) over monetizing (example is palette and species adopts)
4) people nitpicking tutorials for not showing fat people
5) contention between artists who draw ugly and pretty characters

I posted the video and honestly I just really dislike everything about the video maker. They're pretty unremarkable and are so obviously cherry-picking controversies to comment on for clout. I've seen a message from them on one video about YanDev I had watched where she gloated how even though all her fans wanted her to, she refused to draw Yandere-chan.

She's just kind of boring and a clout chaser, not a cow quite at this moment but could possibly be in the future.

Personally, I don’t like tracing, no matter how you do it, you won’t learn unless to eye what you’re trying to trace and draw it.
But I guess I can see where she’s coming from, even if clout chasing. I mean, she traces in the vid for this art piece, and it hindered her piece. The right eye is incredibly bigger than the other

Sure, tracers do not trace the whole thing but honestly when it’s just a nose that fits and not even that it get’s a bit iffy. I do think she does trace but frankly even I don’t think that evidence of yours is good, I also don’t see how the mouth matches as it really doesn’t. You can do what you want, ultimately but you’re not just trying to convince her hugbox but normal, decent people too but with that it creates more disbelief than anything. Just because someone is a tracer doesn’t even mean they trace every picture and you since you got clearcut evidence, it would be better to stick to that.

lmao this is the best one yet and highlights how tracing is a piss poor ""learning"" tool. The only part she didn't trace (probably traced from a different image lbr) is the head of the keyblade and notice how it's not lined up with the rest of the keyblade. Tracing doesn't train your eye at all and I don't know why any aspiring artist would want to fuck themselves over by wasting their time tracing.

You become addicted to the way you "draw so well" when you trace and get depressed looking at your art without a trace so you go back to tracing bc your braindead followers don't give a shit either way and when social media is dead and gone and you have no one to kiss your ass anymore you'll just be left with yourself and your inability to draw.

Her age was outed a few threads back and her first drama involved two other artists (crezz and some other artist) who if i recall were classmates with her in the past.

Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask. I couldn't tell if these were general art threads or just about drama only. What art sites do you guys use? It's ok if it's something that isn't super popular. I just don't like sites like Instagram and Twitter because so many of the people you end up interacting with aren't even artists. Something like deviantArt would be so nice, but their latest redesign is so difficult to use I have to wonder if it was on purpose.

There really isn't a good place for artists to post their work and amass a following now. Tumblr is dead, Instagram is formatted for undetailed shit work with their tiny, no resolution squares, and Artstation just feels like a portfolio holding space for professionals, with no community or space to grow for amateurs and hobbyists.

i recently started using newgrounds and unfortunately from a community standpoint i can't really recommend it because as a new artist there i've yet to feel in part of something. i do like it though, it has a decent tagging system, the layout makes sense and you can rate art and not just have the option of like or dislike.

Tumblr's been better since most of the worst left for Twitter. I've been getting good, relevant traction and I've been enjoying posting there again. Even my online shops have gained good traffic from it. I think they've also finally fixed whatever issue they've had with their tagging system, too.

I'm assuming you're asking about transparent watercolors here and not gouache:

I've been using Schmincke Horadam for a long time and they're still my default. I started out with a small empty box and selected colors I like but if you're unsure about that you can also get a pre-selected set- I think smaller eight to twelve color sets will be absolutely fine for starting out. I live in a country where Schmincke colors are easily available so they're also easy to replace which is important if you plan to use them a lot and for a long time. They're kind of expensive (about 5€ per half-pan) but they really do last a long time, I actually still have many of the pans from my first selection. If you do paint a lot (or larger, I mostly do smaller paintings) you can also switch to tubes and refill your pans yourself which is cheaper.

I'm recently trying other brands as well and I'm pretty sure that most high quality brands are comparable but in general I would second paying for higher quality if you have the money. I think something like the Daniel Smith (that's an American brand) split primaries set could work quite well for starting out.

I've only ever bought one pan of W&N when I was in a pinch and it might well have been a bad apple and not typical for their quality but I loathe how it behaves compared to my regular paints of the same tone I stopped using it.

For sketching you can pretty much use any papers that are not too thin and smooth. There's fancy watercolor sketchbooks, too, but personally I feel inhibited a bit by overly expensive sketchbooks so I have used some cheaper watercolor sketchbooks but I haven't tried anything like etchr or whatever.
For more ambitious paintings I do think the designated watercolor paper is required if you want to utilize the unique quality of the colors and enjoy how they work. (Idon't go under 300g.) In general the highest quality paper will be 100% cotton. If you don't have a texture preference yet it's best to try some different ones until you figure it out. Hot pressed is smooth, cold press is textured, rough is the roughest. There's lots of brands and the best options will heavily depend on where you live. You don't have to start out with Arches, in any case.

God am I the only one that finds art trends absolute creative cancer. It's like art junk food that everyone jumps on for clout and followers, the recent sailor moon one is the worst yet it's void of all creativity. I think social media like insta and twitter have turned art into a consumable 5 sec experience.

I can’t wait for that Sailor Moon one to die out already. I love the show but so many people are doing it for clout it’s ridiculous. The same goes for the people doing Ghibli screencaps because they think they’re special for not doing the SM one.
I think what really made me groan was one posted to AANI recently on SPS with Usagi switched up to look black for more woke points and of course everyone there ate it up.

it seems megat0nraid might go DFE mode. she already did pic related to her youtube and disabled comments on almost all videos. her instagram and facebook are gone, and her patreon seems to be wiped clean.

also, her media says 529 at the moment, but there is definitely not that much in there, so she's been hard at work deleting things (although it seems she was deleting even before the callouts).

i wanted to provide some archives just in case. considering she was regularly posting before now and has gone absolutely silent, i thought it was worth doing.

I'm a gigantic fan of sailor moon and not to sound like a boomer hipster I hate how Sailor Moon the character has become a quirky instagirl pastel aesthetic character. I see her drawn so much from people who don't know shit about the anime bc her hairstyle is cute and Teh 90's!!1! Maybe that's why the recent sm redraw trend irks me so much. People who don't care about the character or the context of the show drawing her for clout. Then some idiots have the gall to call some redraws "white washing" and change her look because it's not woke enough. It's all so soulless.

Fanart anywhere will do worse than original art, unless your original art follows some kind of generic Instagram drawing style. Keep posting your original work anyway.

If you want to make your original work known, be sure to interact with other original creators as well. Tumblr has a group chat feature now, so it's a good opportunity for you to find groups of similar interests and chat with other creators.

However, make sure you're connecting with them because you want to, not because you're hoping to get something out of it. It's painfully obvious what people's motives are from how they talk to others.

ayrt, I don't think it's going away, at least not on Instagram. This style of drawing is mostly technically simple and aesthetically pleasing - perfect to glance over for a couple seconds, double tap, and keep scrolling.
Instagram also has a high concentration of amateur artists (I don't mean to sound snooty by this, I'm talking about mostly highschoolers) and this "cute semi-anime girl's head with ethereal hair and acoutrements" thing looks like an achievable goal to them. Anything more advanced and they'll become discouraged and feel like they'll never get to that skill level, but this trendy style is easily recreated if you pay attention to the colours and motifs that are used. It pulls a lot of likes and follows for the artist, and the cycle continues.
I probably sound like I have my head up my own ass, I'm just speculating on why it's so widespread now. I'm bored of it too, but it's pretty harmless.

I don't think it's a case of copying, her art has just become very generic. It's a pity because her old style was a lot more distinct and interesting.

Agreed and also there’s the thing too where they’re also either influenced by each other cuz no doubt both are probably following each other or appear on each other’s explore feed, or take away the same things from a similar influence like there’s major Utena vibes and shoujo anime vibes from both. I think it’s similar to meyoco clones tho not overtly, like the subjects are pretty generic and have been around forever, in that they’re clearly artists who know what will get them the most likes with their audience and IG is very like driven with its algorithm.

>>558601
I don’t think there’s going to be like a large shift cuz people drawing sad pretty girls will always get likes (like I completely forgot Audrey Kawasaki was still around and her art looks the same from like ten-twelve years ago), but there’ll be definite shifts in subjects and styles. Like imo there’s a lot more cottagecore/soft styles now vs like, everyone doing art nouveau rips like fiveish years ago and like, I’ve definitely seen a lot less like pastel lolita kind of stuff.

I feel sorry for the smaller artist. It’s annoying to have to deal with that shit when you’re just trying to have fun.

There seem to be a lot of call-outs about “idea-copying” recently but christ I can only think of one recent incident where the 2nd artist blatantly ripped off an idea, but said artist wes only 14 and didn’t know any better.

No. 558665

Honestly I’m probably only one here who doesn’t hate them, mostly because they’re one of the few socially acceptable ways to advertise your work online. Sure they’re not the most creative but at this day and age, it’s super hard to gain following online, unless you shit out art daily and cheat the system. Social media is not like it was before, it’s very oversaturated and the algorithm changes all the time, these challenges give smaller artists even a sliver of chance to reach to a new audience without using any underhanded methods and I like it.

AYRT but not often. My work is 70/30 fanart/original. But Tumblr still seems to be one of the best places for original works since I get equal feedback on both.

That said, my original work covers more generic themes and features animals instead of the usual character art, so it has wider appeal. Like with anything else, it just depends on what your original content is.

Don't let any of that deter you; you never know who may like what you have if you don't put it out there. Be more concerned about putting in relevant tags than whether or not to post. More irons in the fire and all.

From what I'm seeing, most of the people who stayed behind on Tumblr are there for the creators and less for the politics. You'll find a place there.

He did apologize for it on dA in the past but now he's deleted the apology. I don't think it'd be a stretch to say he got a lot of his popularity from his redraws (that he didn't specify was redraws until called out), and just because it happened in the past doesn't make it okay now.

I understand your point anon, but you do understand that he DID apologize and we don’t have current information that he does so today. If all the art pieces that were traced are on his current profile, I would understand being mad about it, but if it isn’t then why is it still an issue?
Wouldn’t it signify growth for him to stop tracing and remove the pieces that he did trace, all the while recognizing that he did so?
Sorry but I want to understand why this is still an issue for the artist- even after 9-10 years ago

No. 559431

>>559430
I think it's nice you have so much faith in people, anon, maybe I'm just a shitty pessimist, but the fact that he changed his handle, deleted those pieces PLUS deleted his apology felt more like him pretending it didn't happen+admission of guilt rather than
>recognizing that he did so
If he was recognizing his mistakes I think the very least he could do was leave the apology up on dA. Also, the callouts were back in 2015, not nearly a decade ago.

It was a big issue because he made bank off it while claiming they were just "studies". Admittedly some of the evidence is flimsy (actual redraws and not traces), but the few that he did traced+made money off on is enough to justify people randomly calling him out even now imo, lol.

There was this arist I was following on twitter because of his beautiful rendering and storybook-looking illustrations. But I found something sus in my timeline, started looking into it more and lo and behold, the person who exclusively draws little girls is actually a lolicon (his patreon tiers are also labelled as "loli" and he owns loli figures so I'm not throwing accusations).

There are 3 of them, one shown on the picture (inactive), shiranou (taken down by insta last year), and artworkfeature_

Shiranou was a content partner with artworkfeature_ and and chocoartft_. They are highly nitpicky when featuring artists, they need small accs to pay quite amount of money which unguaranteed prone to scam, while they frequently feature popular artists

Y'all calling out tracers, yet shiranou was much worse. She leeches of artists hard work reposting the artworks putting her username first then the artist's credit as well.

Not to start the pedo war again but from what I saw, most people were usually defending the highly stylized, fictional "loli" art, where the lolis had the proportions closer to an petite adult rather than an actual child but in here it's a very clear cut case of appealing to actual pedos by drawing very realistic depiction of kids in very suggestive situations and poses. I'm not personally phased by most of the loli art myself as I just cannot see them as "real" but these are obviously not just lolis but very closely trying to emulate the look of real life children which makes this very disturbing.

While I would not really advice anyone to date someone as young as 13, especially when you're 19, these things can get very complicated to all parties involved. It might be disturbing to an outsider looking in and it should but while we would like everything to be as clearcut and easy as "wrong and right" sometimes it just isn't. I've personally known several people who I was friends with as a 14 y/o and seen them date people even 20 years their senior and while I was and still am kinda horrified about it, some of those couples are weirdly still together with children and stable family. Ultimately I think it might be a bit late to for this person to get nailed in the wall for dating an underage person if they're still together and happily married.

Not trying to defend it don't get me wrong, I wouldn't ever approve of this kind of relationship and I have always found them very disturbing myself it's just that when you've seen it happen around you, you kinda realize how different every case can be from the next and that it's not something that will have easy solution. I know for example of one relationship with a bigger age difference where the dude was literally the mental age of 10 and at that point it just becomes all kinds of weird in multiple ways, honestly though both parties were highly mentally ill and I have no idea why the parents approved of it. This is what I mostly meant by things not always being so simple and while it would be nice to not have these things ever happen, sometimes they still do, because reality is very A moral.

Added to that, all cons have basically been cancelled until 2021 so that probably factors into why some people haven’t been producing a lot of stuff. Like if you were planning to make a zine with a mermay, you don’t have anywhere to sell it other than online, which means you have to set that up and everything too. I’ve seen more people finally start up their patreons and stuff at least but there’s a lot of income insecurity I feel for a lot of artists now.

I know a lot of these artists too that used to do challenges have day jobs and they’ve either lost their jobs entirely or transitioned to WFH so like especially if art is their day job, WFH is a new beast and like since u don’t have a change of scenery anymore then it adds to the stalled production and depression

Jen pretty much always has been a person who needed to step off of twitter and like go outside and get a hobby instead of inserting herself into like ALL conversations on the internet, like look at her twitter and you’ll get an idea. she’s pretty much known for like “woke” media and same faced static women but comics loves her for some reason (Jen is also Korean and married to a white man for background)

But the first twitter fallout thing was in 2018 around the time when Black Panther came out, she had an interview with io9 on drawing the women from BP and basically said that because she drew black women’s hair “accurately” than that is deserving of praise. When it came out, understandably black creators called her out on her statement both on the absurdity of drawing black women “correctly” is just as important as black representation, even though like Marvel/DC have a track record of not hiring black/poc creators for titles starring them, and the inaccuracy (she deleted the tweet but I remember it said something akin to “drawing baby hairs is important for representation”). She also does not use her platform or any of her statements to lift up or retweet other black creators in her industry.

The biggest thing came from the artist/game designer Chris Kindred, who called her out in her statements there and before, and the thread is here (but jen has deleted her incriminating tweets) where she dm’s Chris about being taken incorrectly cuz of the amount of followers she has making it difficult to converse with peers, Chris emailing her back explaining why he made his opinion public, Jen doubling down on her statement of “accuracy = representation”, Chris responding both to her and her friends (artists Irene Koh and Paul Reinwand). https://twitter.com/itskindred/status/1050146916149940224?s=20 note: Chris was not the only one calling her out on this, many black creators and artists in and around on twitter did as well. Chris puts it succinctly in a tweet at the end where, at this time, they did not hate her but they wanted her to know how statements like this made them all feel

In the end, Jen blocked Chris and basically blocked any body following Chris, calling her out on her performative wokeness and not understanding that using black bodies does not equal the same as representation or helping elevate black artists in an industry and parallel industries with her own social clout. Basically blocking nearly all of black creative twitter for critiquing her.

Fast forward to today, she tweets what >>561017 posted, pretty much like saying she has the privilege of ignoring the resistance currently with the riots in Minneapolis (and she lives there) and her resistance is being able to draw fan art of FF7. Which rightly has angered not just black creative twitter but creative twitter in general, I added the screenshot of the tweet I’ve seen get traction the most here https://twitter.com/theshenners/status/1266383368331067393?s=20 .

This reply sums it up the most as to why her fan art tweet was yet again another performative action https://twitter.com/DapsDraws/status/1266428064503869441?s=20

If you also search “Jen Bartel black” on twitter you’ll get tweets from other people frustrated at her tweet (she has also since deleted it) and the extent of her blocking everyone who has opposed her, like I said I’m blocked from her tweets cuz I either follow Chris or retweeted him cuz she runs block chains. A lot of prominent black comics folks have called her out as well, but also probably in parallel or direct opposition, there been campaigns to also boost black creatives on twitter today as well

Yeah pretty much! I used to follow her on twitter but god she really needed to go the fuck outside cuz ANY little discourse that happened on twitter or something in art twitter, be it like tracing discourse or diversity discourse or lgbt stuff, she ALWAYS had to insert herself into. And she has stans as well, like if you have that many followers then yeah you’ll get them, but she’s so clueless about what having that many followers means on a platform that like she constantly sticks her foot in her mouth.

the biggest thing I remember is that she got a tumblr and then uploaded like FIFTY images in a row to populate it, like so anyone who followed her on tumblr, their dash was just nothing but her art. So of course people on twitter asked her to stop cuz she was flooding the dashboard and she quote tweeted some rando being like “it’s MY tumblr, you don’t have to follow it” so of COURSE her stans went after the poor person who tweeted and she basically targeted

I’ve known lots of people who have met her at cons or professionally that were put off by her standoffishness irl . It’s a shame cuz they’re all decent artists but like, they need a hobby that’s not like being on twitter all the time

yup, like twitter does give you more tools once you become verified or reach a certain number of followers so u don’t HAVE to interact with that many people on your feed but also like, maybe use your own self restraint to not be on so much as to be affected? But yeah, I think her art is super bland and all her faces look the same but comics has a boner for her work for some reason even tho she draws the same looking stiff women all the time. The whole baby hair thing was stupid too cuz she had video of her drawing it and like shuri’s braids all by hand super zoomed in but like she printed it out at like 11x14, nobody can see it if it’s that small

Wanted to add before anyone starts demanding screencaps, Jen quickly deletes shit when things go bad and buries it all. Might can find some things but several blogs that had the caps are locked to me and currently right now she is doing damage control again by apologizing and re-tweeting a bunch of other posts to cover her ass so I'd get to saving anything shes recently said cause shes gonna delete more shit soon.

She’s a comics darling for basically having a large following for her art. Just google her and you get tons of examples of her work but she’s done covers and series for marvel, dc and image and books for publishers like chronicle which she did the cover for a big women of Star Wars omnibus. Her coloring style is pretty recognizable if you’ve seen it before but imo she’s pretty much just like one of those IG artists who draw pretty, sad women and then have a billion followers

The thing she wanted praise about in the first shit that got her in trouble on twitter is drawing Nakia & Shuri’s hair ~accurately~ was representation in comics.

So echoing >>561213 she’s quick to delete and bury most controversies she’s been in on twitter, if you search people said she had some beef with Charlie Bowater (a book artist, I think because Jen did some sailor moon art that looks surprisingly alike to Charlie’s), and some stuff against antis and CP on twitter (if you search her name, people are digging up those tweets like on here) https://twitter.com/ArachneOenomel/status/1266481117739311104?s=20

She pretty much also just spends all her days like name searching herself and liking tweets she’s in, that’s why a lot of people are blocked by her too because she runs a script that’s available on chrome called blockchain where you can mass block a large string of people, like someone’s followers. She hasn’t deleted this but she buried her explanation and apology in a tweet to the artist Elicia Donze and is currently trying to make up for it by retweeting stuff but the damage is done

Most of her points were pretty good, but I can see why people would react negatively to her. Not only are HH stans not really the sanest people, she's pretty condescending in general. It might just be a natural thing about her, some people can't help that.
I kind of dislike that she made Alastor markedly less cutesy (I feel like the "cute but creepy" appeal is one of the most important, uniform aspects of HH's designs), though, and I want her to admit that she redesigned Vaggie like that because she relates to that kind of look more, or wants to cosplay as her.

Is anyone else so fucking tired of this whole "roundness for friends, edges for enemies!!" character design tips?

Everyone takes that advice to an extreme and now it's so predictable and annoying, especially people trying to produce Teen and Up themed webcomics, like I'm not a 5 year old, you don't have to make your main character a circle, you can subvert my expectations it's fine.

No. 561962

This isn't a 'calarts style' thing, this is a universal design strategy across most character design for cartoons. It's been happening since the golden age. That being said, having these design stereotypes in mind, it makes them easier and more fascinating to break.

Consider that Ursula from the Little Mermaid is a villain created using a lot of round shapes, but she still reads as a villain. That has to do a lot with queer coding, sure, but it basically undermines the idea that all villains are sharp and all heroes are round. It's called 'shape theory', and you see it through a lot of character design.

That being said, a lot of shows don't follow this rule at all. It's a base, and you take from it and expand from it how you will. But at least having a basic knowledge of shape theory will help someone understand better how to craft strong silhouettes or interesting character shapes etcetera.

There's just like…no reason to make a skinny, tall character chubby and short to be "strong and confident". That was some bullshit. In fact, if we're going by the shape theory of roundness being for friendliness, suddenly making her chubby and less physically imposing (rather than say, more angular/muscular, and also taller in stature) would actually undermine her strength. That was the only character whose body type she changed, too.

old vaggie is just this spindly strange skinny bean, just like the rest. It might be stronger to make charlie smaller and 'rounder' and vaggie taller and more 'imposing' or whatever. In a way that might make Charlie stand out even more as a main character if everyone else is big and she's little.

Though honestly meppity's character designs tend to lean towards long limbs spindly people too, so I see why that ended up being the style for 3/4 characters in these redesigns

I get the majority of my work through word of mouth from friends and fans so there's no denying having a relationship with those who follow you matters a lot.

ArtStation is great as well for more of a portfolio website though it's geared mostly to concept art and IDK what the engagement is like.

Tumblr is still alive and it won't hurt to cross post there though it's a bit of a meh website nowadays. DeviantArt is definitely dead and y'all need to accept it.

Oh yeah she’s a real hypocrite cuz she’s CONSTANTLY spouting her mouth off on twitter and deleting it. Luckily people do remember and are screencapping now but like comicsgate and extreme fake woke sjw like her are so similar in their rhetorics sometimes. Like of course they’re on opposite sides of an issue but they way they thirst for validation and praise from their followers is so alike.

She’s definitely trying to appease people by showing she’s so progressive and concerned but like, shut up Jen you have just as much white privilege as white people when you show your ass like this. Get a dang hobby

Engagement won’t be as strong for a while for art and non BLM stuff for a while, anon, so like if you depend on it and can hold off I would. But if you can’t, don’t put like that it’s there as a “break” from all the news or something, the last thing you want to be is anti BLM or pro cop right now. and don’t tag it with any trending hashtags related to the protests either (I’ve seen people do that and it’s SO tacky)

She doesnt even live in america its kinda disgusting when you force a non american to join in your activism as if america's problem is everyone's problem, you dont see much of these fuckers spread awareness to this scale over other injustices in the world. She made a post about this giving her reason why she didnt bring this topic up and apologized but did put donation links and people still wasnt satisfied and they ripped her to shreds in the comments she just eventually deleted it. This is why i dont mention anything about this in my account i dont want to be part of this political toxicity plus plenty of people are talking about it anyway

You can’t do it off twitter alone, it’s too fast of a platform to build a following solely through it, but think of it more as a supplement to engagement with people rather than, an online gallery cuz art disappears and rarely comes up on there. If you want to be known for art there, make sure your art is in your banner and icon as well as links and contact readily available or pinned to the top (like I’ve gotten jobs from people who find my email in my bio). Post often and participate in trending art hashtags like Portfolio Day (it is quarterly) and there’s sometimes signal boosts for people of a particular race or orientation for portfolios. The main thing of twitter is to connect and network to people, so like if you have a fandom you’re in, it’s the easiest to talk to fans there (it’s also easy to show your ass so be careful) and also you can engage other artists and stuff on there as well. People will also spread your work around with retweets and I find those a lot better for sharing than like IG, but it’s easier to build a following through art in IG

Hashtags don’t work the same on twitter than as IG or other things. On twitter they’re more like a way to categorize your tweet into something? And they trend depending on how many people participate.

The biggest one is portfolio day and it’s quarterly however I think because of that, people get really confused. But you see a lot of engagement just by tagging a tweet with it. If you identify as female, the Visible Women hashtag is where people got a lot of traction, it was set up by Kelly sue deconnick and is meant to promote women in comics but has kind of expanded to women in the art industry in general

I won’t say anything about it publically but it’s strange to me that they have no issues with tracing what so ever.

I guess it works if you want to get into comics (I’ve heard they trace a lot because of deadlines) but for an illustrator you’d think they wouldn’t do that.

Who knows, maybe all pro illustrators and artists trace.

Okay I just have to ask, does anyone here actually like Twisted Disaster's Art style? I feel like a jerk for being judgmental about art style but TwistedDisaster's art is just so unnerving to me. I like her coloring and inking but the way she draws characters is just so unappealing. I was listening to one of her older videos where she was talking about her books that she's working on and I won't lie, the premise sounds interesting to me but then I look at her art and it's just like… It takes me out of it. Her characters just look so derpy and I can't see her books catching on if she uses her own art for the covers.

But I feel like maybe I'm just being nitpicky and that there must be someone out there who likes her work since she claims she gets so many commission though to be honest, I feel like most of her clients are kids who are in Middle School and High School. Because I can't see many maturer aged people into her stuff.

I feel that perhaps the reason why her art is so unappealing to me is because it reminds me of Steven Universe and I personally find that show to be hideous and I'm guessing she's trying to make her art like that? Either way just thought I'd ask because I do watch her videos from time to time and I've always had these thoughts on my mind when I watch her draw. Like she was working on some adoptables a few days ago making vampire characters in her style and I was just thinking that they would look so much better in a more polished style.

It looks like she has a weird case of same-face syndrome. Her characters look different from each other, but in a way that makes them look uniformly ugly as hell. I just looked at some of her art and they all have some type of potato nose and huge lips, so none of them really stand out.
Her style is unappealing, she doesn't experiment with any kind of out of the box coloring/shading, and she seems to only draw the same 3/4th point of view characters over and over. It doesn't really make for very interesting content.

Oh dude, no, baylee parrots a lot of what other, more successful artists do to the point where the baylee board thinks she’s blatantly copying katnipp illustrations down to the pastel aesthetic. Like, baylee is too lazy to find alternatives to vistaprint even though she’s had hackers take her account so she shadily creates sub accounts instead of using other print houses or looking for one locally. She actually pays more to print her prints cuz she insists on using non-Canadian companies so she pays hundreds in customs to import them, AND she admitted in a vlog she paid a pin manufacturer as friends or family on PayPal even though she admitted she knew it was risky cuz you can’t get your money back if they messed them up (because she didn’t want to pay the extra like 20CAD in buying as goods fees)

Plus idk what you’re watching cuz I stopped watching baylee’s vlogs cuz she barely does anything for hours and then you watch her cats eat all her shipping materials and barf it up on the floor while she films and leaves it there cuz she thinks it’s cute.

Eh personally I think Arofexdracona's style is much more visually appealing. I feel like she's able to put a more serious spin on her characters and they don't come out looking as derpy as the way Twisted Disaster's tend to turn out. I think she has a better sense of anatomy as well, she seems to be quite varied with the bodies she draws and her monster designs are actually quite good.

I feel like out of the trio of TD, ZodiacLord, and Arofex, Arofex is the best of the two. Not that it's a competition or anything but it's clear that Arofex has the much more engaging style while ZodiacLord is kinda catching up. She used to do the same derpy Steven Universe-esq style like TD did but after visiting her gallery, I think she's trying to branch away from that.

>1 doll of a black character
>A sculpture of an albino character with multiple cherubs of different races around it
>Currently working on another sculpture of a black character.
>Currently sculpting the face of George Floyd which she says she will auction for charity

She's a body positive artist so these were all naked sculptures. It has dawned on me that perhaps it's fetishizing rather than supporting. She is white with 130k+ followers and decided now was the time to be silent for a whole week, also locking her account, with the excuse of the hashtag #muted and #blackouttuesday

I remember when I first saw her stuff and noticed all her art looked like her. Now she's sorta created a black woman character to sculpt instead, but everything is the same character. I kinda think it's a self-insert character since some of the NSFW art features a skinny white partner for the black character, and her boyfriend is skinny and white. Plus they all have her bodytype.

There's a woman posted in the art cow thread on /snow who had a black self-insert oc which makes me wonder. People also assume her characters are bodypositivity intended to support x bodytype when it's all just indulgent art of her own bodytype. I've never seen her post anything in support of women's rights or anything, only cow blogposting. She even claimed to not know what "white feminism" was while being one.

Yeah, exactly. You have no black friends? Oh, so you're a racist. If you have them though, it doesn't matter and you're a racist for bringing it up as if it somehow doesn't make you one.
If you include people of color in your art, you're stealing, you're appropriating, you're cherry-picking. If you don't, however, you're racist.

I don't see how this sculptors work is in any way inherently racist though. It's not like she's making borderline mammy statues or something.

Writers are going through the same thing too. Extensively research and try to write about a POC during X era? You're not a part of that culture and will never understand! Include POC as characters in general? They weren't written well enough!

They tell these authors to write what they know, so when they do write about medieval fantasy or whatever with white characters, they still get shit because no POC. You literally can't win.

Sage for non-milk, more of an art rant/sperg;

So, yesterday everyone was posting their little black boxes, virtue signalling that they care and what not, flooding everyone's feeds, and honestly, it makes me want to delete Instagram now. With it being non-chronological, I am still getting black boxes I apparently haven't seen, literally posted a day ago. It says so in the timestamp that it has been over a day, and I am still getting 'new' boxes. I'm tired of it. It makes me kind of proud to follow so many foreign artists that don't care about American bullshit, since I still see some of my favorite art, but when it is post after post after post- Like, I get it, your mad or whatever, but Instagrams non-chronological feed is more frustrating now more than ever. I bet I am still going to be seeing black boxes posted yesterday days from now due to this bull.

Being technically good by following all the "rules" is not the same thing as appealing to our monkey brains. 2016 is pleasing in how the detail is situated in the upper quarter, it makes the less detailed hair lengths and body convey a certain mood.

Was about to post the same tweet, I think it explains why she stagnated like this.
All she seems to draw are character commissions and rp characters, usually just with lineart and flats, no backgrounds, simple poses. She doesn't need to improve her colours, anatomy, or really anything because that's not what commissioners/patrons would pay money for, or she wants to be as fast as possible.

I know this thread gets mad about the idea of some artists treating their art more like a business than a skill they should always improve, but it just works for some people.

Lately, however, she has introduced her sister into more and more videos with her. I wouldn't care, but they joke around a LOT more, and everything is more unfocused. The videos go on for longer, and it's not because her sister has any input further than what NerdE already says. I wouldn't mind if I found them funny, but I don't.

Don't give in to them. Even if you post BLM shit as an apology they just get a rush of power and start pushing their luck further. You give them an inch, they will take a mile. It's not even limited to BLM, artists get bullied all the fucking time for being ~insensitive~ just because some salty faggot has a domination fetish and thrives on making others feel small and miserable. Female artists in particular are generally quite sensitive and easy to boss around, so they're treated as common punching bags. I literally stopped posting art publicly and packed my bags to fuck off social media because I got too tired of seeing this happen all the time, genderbents are now transphobic and drawing only white characters is racist.

For anyone outside of America or even Americans who aren't black it is a complex societal issue that requires first hand experiences and extensive knowledge to understand. Think back to that recent viral video where some white boy is showing a thumbs up from his window to the protesters and the protesters throw an object through his window glass and he starts screeching "WHAT THE FUCK WE'RE ON YOUR SIDE WE'RE ON YOUR SIDE". You think you understand but you don't, most of the people rioting are so mad they don't want whitey pity points.

You people demand everyone to post spicy takes about the BLM movement but still pitch a fit when they share a narrative based on their limited knowledge and one which clashes with yours. Of course if you just want copy and paste black box "im listening hurr cops are pigs white ppl should shut up" even that isn't enough because you actually have to add a "call to action" despite being told to shut up and ~listen~.

Update on this, she has posted several BLM posts to her main feed so I consider it redeemed. I see a lot of people only posting to stories meaning there will be no trace on their main account.

Also noticed a couple of people saying the sculpture is a weird thing to do which I saw here. I don't think it's weird, but I do think donating it to the family or giving them the sale price is weird, last time I looked they were on 12 million so I think they're good.

Her oc posts don’t bring in as many comments and new people as any fanart stuff she does so it seems like once she gets interaction outside of her hugbox bubble like constructive criticism or people voicing their options on her art she flips out and takes it very personally, like with the whole “I really want to die” thing just earlier she’s definitely done that in the past before over something she’s drawn I don’t remember what off of the top of my head though

I get that she’s educating her young audience on their rights and all, but doing it with “cute girls” seems a bit tasteless.

I'm not educated in art in any way, just a commoner who likes looking at art, so idk if there is a certain term for this, but like… I feel that some of these e-artists feel that good character design = adding as many bells and whistles as possible. Add more colors, more shapes, more accessories, add wings floating around them and glasses and purses and weapons and vines and stripes and scars and… You get the point. This is also how I feel about the Hazbin Hotel characters.

What I think a good character design is, something that is simple yet iconic. Like maybe a character that has 1 or 2 really cool features that stand out, but not ALL of the features. Take the top right girl for example and take away some of the things - no words up her dress, no scar over her nose, no faded roots. Tone it down a little. It'll look far less cluttered and be a better design imo. Having "No" and X's in like 5 different places is just overkill.

I can't speak for all Youtubers, but for drama channels like Creepshow, maybe it's because drama is an inherently vapid topic.

If you're attracted to prepubescent bodies rendered that lovingly and painstakingly, you're a pedophile.

No, it doesn't automatically mean you'd act upon real children, or you'd download real child pornography. But yes, it means on some level, you are attracted to minors.

Where do we draw the line? If you say "It's just art," what about a sketchbook recreation of a real nude of a child? What about real child nudes with a sketchy filter overlayed? At some point, "it's just art" doesn't cut it anymore.

Our porn consumption doesn't always reflect something we'd do in real life, but on some level, we do desire what we're seeing on the screen. There's no reason to draw sexy children if you don't like sexy children.

Not meant to be racist or anything, since i looked up that the artist comes from Argentina… and it's in South America… There's another artist from South America as well used to be known as Cristali… which is way blatantly disgusting as Cristali asking minors mostly of his fans to send nudes even sending his nudes to them. I've heard him that he also sold traced nudes in his Patreon.

Thank god Cristali got arrested last year for distributing CP and he's now in jail…

A note on the ‘homeless in Portland’ thing about this; I live here. I lived here when she did. No one here has an issue with people living in their car on public property. In fact, Portland can’t seem to move on what to do with our overwhelming homeless population. Shannon complaining about all the things that happened to her, in the safety of her car that can drive away, falls on deaf ears.

Also, if she was in Portland the last few years, working 2-3 jobs, at part-time, she would be making at least 2800 a month after taxes since the minimum wage has been increasing every few months to eventually hit 15$. You can easy find an apartment within budget for that. You just have to go 30 mins out of the main city. And with Portlands robust public transport, she doesn’t even need to drive.

She is whining and complaining about a situation that was easily fixable, but she doesn’t have the braincells to realize that. Maybe in that Vegas heat, her shit will start to stink.

I’ve been reading the twitter thread, and it sounds like the artist IS young, and possibly is using Loish’s patron to learn but also use their ideas- hence: >>568228

I assume that the artist who stole the idea probably took down their image in fear their name will get out. But from what it sounds, theyre a replicant of Loish’s style- it doesn’t narrow anything down, but there is a possibility that they also took other ideas from loish’s patron

I remember seeing a twitter post by FBI (or CPS don't remember which) that told people to stop misusing the report function on people who aren't actual criminals or breaking laws. The truth is that the whole loli/shota has already been researched heavily across all countries; Japan itself even issued a ban on those subjects in the early 2000's, but they realized that it doesn't affect the number of cases of child abuse. The earliest conclusion was from 2012 by Denmark that explicitly state that weeb drawings don't lead to pedophilia.

Also I remember some fat dude who had those stereotypical hipster soyboy looks, who got busted for child abuse. He tweeted constantly about hating animu (and calling anyone who likes anime a pedo) and the next day he would tweet creepy shit, being near a nursery school and taking pics then calling himself "pedobear" it was legit disgusting. There's certainly a trend here of these weirdos who do more harm to society than the people they call out for drawing impossible tentacle porn hentai.

Someone mentioned earlier he reposts real little girls on his facebook, why do you imagine that is? He has an innocent fascination with pretty little girls? Come on bro, even people who do love kids, like teachers and moms, barely repost random kids, that's just weird.

When are you going to believe someone who dedicates their life to drawing naked little girls might have an interest in little girls? When they repost actual child porn? Or is photography and film just "art" too now?

Btw nice strawmanning, literally no one said you're a pedophile for watching kids cartoons, they said you might be a pedophile if you spend your days drawing 9 year olds' vaginas as they sit on pool floaties and other childish activities.

Getting a bit off-topic from this thread now but I really, really believe Dan Schneider of Nickeloden fame is a pedo. Why else would he have suddenly cut communication with the outside world and gone into hiding after a prolific career at Nick.

Anyways, the sad thing is, people who have a sexual interest in little kids probably have an excellent interest in how to entertain little kids and understand their state of mind as far as TV shows, cartoons, etc. I am not at all implying that anyone who creates content for kids is a pedo, but it's not surprising that the industry would attract some nasty people for the wrong reasons, both the cartoon industry and live-action kids shows.

Absolutely inappropriate and creepy behavior, I just googled it.

And before anyone tries to defend this, there is a big difference between finding children cute and delightful, versus following them around irl, trying to photograph them, and commenting on their "tight pants" and calling them "UUUNGH HEAVEN."

I wasn’t arguing against it or rolling my eyes, just stating this has started to go around and twitter is gonna have a field day with this one because a lot of people (me included) detest her art, and now there’s a tangible moral reason to openly hate on her.

And yeah you have to be incredibly dumb to do that in the current political climate, if you wanna be racist or pro-cop just do it in your private twitter, not in the giant one with 600k followers, it’s like asking for a callout to happen.

With that said I don’t think she’s gonna be as affected as jen bartel because she has never marketed herself as woke or progressive, and a lot of her fans are edgy weebs who agree with those sentiments.

It's one one thing to not support a specific cause ie: donating an hat not but she's openly agreeing with one side and no matter what people say; Political opinions can say alot about a person's morals. I'm black and haven't been into Sakimi's art in years because the quality went to shit real fast but, her liking those tweets (especially the right's little coon darling Candace) shows what side she's on of a very polarizing issue, especially with Sakimi not even being black at all.

I think people put too much emphasis on opinions. Obviously it's not good for business to have an opinion one way or the other on polarizing issues, but that doesn't make her a bad person. That doesn't make her cancel worthy.
Her art is shit. If you think she's shit, then that's enough. You don't need to go digging for reasons to hate or cancel her (unless they're actually cancel-worthy things, like being a pedo, scamming people, being a legitimate racist, etc.)

Idk man, maybe I'm too much of a raging liberal, but I think it's fine to dislike someone if they're having political opinions that disagree with yours, on their business account.

Plenty of people have black loved ones, or ARE black, and it'd be fair that they don't want to give financial support or follow someone on social media if they're perceived as being anti-black.

What's funny about it? Everyone is retweeting about BLM. Her liking a bunch o posts isn't the same as retweeting and being super vocal about it. There are worse people than her in this whole situation and she at least addressed it. You said it, she didn't think about it. I doubt she liked that shit as a secret plan to influence her audience.

The only part that bugs me is when she says she doesn't follow American politics closely as if she was so far away from its reality. The girl lives in Canada , doesn't she? I am pretty sure there are protests there too.

Thanks for clearing that up. I watched that video and her claim of being "homeless", I felt that she was embellishing a bit. Couch surfing isn't homelessness because at least you have a place to stay for awhile, it's not comparable to having to spend weeks to months genuinely living on the streets. It's like the Twisted Disaster thing all over again where she will say every now and then how she was "homeless" when she literally was just living in the garage of her husband's father's home for like a week until they finally moved to their apartment.

I have a friend who works in a foundry where metal statues are made, and I guarantee you copies and molds of those monuments still exist. You know all those famous statues from Greek and Roman antiquity? Well, most of the ones in museums today aren't originals; they're recasts, apprentice studies, and copies made during the Renaissance. The fact of the matter is that originals rarely survive the test of time, but that doesn't mean their existence goes undocumented.

Also, these statues don't have much artistic value in the first place; as another anon mentioned, most of those monuments were erected between the twenties and the sixties, and are not particularly impressive sculptures in the first place. Robert E. Lee himself was opposed to civil war monuments. What these statues stand for is an incredibly ugly side of U.S. history, one that should not be glorified in monuments. If these statues must survive, they should be in museums, not in front of government buildings.

I don’t believe that in every case there’s a death threat, just personal dm saying how said user is very disappointed, but it just rubs me the wrong way whenever people(an outsider to the drama) say that there wasn’t one because they didn’t see it. It’s kinda like abuse, not everyone is going public about it, especially if the account is a dead/anonymous account.

Then again who tf cares about "death threats" on the internet? It's not like she was doxxed and people are actually going to her house or stalking her.
I'm pretty sure everyone who's ever gotten a decent amount of attention on the internet has dealt with people telling them kys or that they wanna kill them, and it's very easy to shrug that kinda shit off tbh because who cares that much about what random trolls say.

Oh.

Back in 2010, she got angry because I asked her (in a civil manner) on her formspring account why she claimed that she drew Tetsuya Nomura's art (a sketch of Kairi from Kingdom Hearts). The art wasn't traced it was really the official sketch. I told her she could have credited Tetsuya Nomura for the sketch and claimed that she colored it. I never trolled her.

Waiting for her reply, to my surprise she deleted her formspring account (admission of guilt?). And when I looked at her facebook she already vented her anger there. The rest was history.

Anon, if you still have access on her facebook account you can see in her art album the same sketch I posted here except she flipped/inverted the sketch and colored the hair black. She used Nomura's sketch to make Kairi into Xion (also a character from Kingdom Hearts).

It depends on what you want to do with your porn drawings? If you want to share with fandom I've noticed people have started to upload to archiveofourown which is a good choice if you don't mind your art being hosted on a different image server, the tagging system is the best I've seen on any site.

tbh i found using twitter is just the simplest option. Make your account -> join Privatter with your twit account -> password-lock / follower-only lock your links to the porn. Makes it easier because you can up worksafe-ish crops for the content with the link.

If you don't want the images to be saved + reposted, joining twitter and then syncing to a poipiku account will let you block right-click saving and also offers password-lock/followers only options. But you'll need to know some Japanese.

Like gee, maybe if you didn't have a Gofundme for a wedding when you weren't in a good financial place, you could've used that money to find a new home quicker and get out of your father-in-law's house like he requested. Or maybe you can just continue working with the tools you have now? You don't need an expensive ass computer to get art done. I fucking use a Dell Laptop and it's enough to get my art done no problem. No one fucking cares about DPI when you're mostly just doing simple drawing commissions. And I think she's now realizing that the people who support her financially are mostly teenagers and teenagers do not have a large income to spend on her. The GoFundMe was ridiculous, of course she wasn't gonna make that much off of her teenage fanbase.

The only time I ever think they're okay is if the person is sincere which is very rare. In the case of Specie, I'd like to think she actually learned from her past but something tells me it's not genuine. Like would she have changed on her own if people didn't drag her name through the mud?

>the only reason she can afford to live alone is because her husband earns all the money.

Fucking thank you anon, glad someone else said it. This is the shit that really bothers me with Twisted Disaster and her lack of awareness. It's pretty clear that if her husband wasn't making a good amount of money, there's no way she could support herself on her art alone considering how much she complains about lack of funds in some of her videos. And even though in the video she said she makes money, it's clear that it alone would not pay the bills consistently unlike her husband who has a conventional job.

Like fuck, I wouldn't rag on her for this if she was just honest and stopped acting like she makes good money from her commissions when it's clear that's not really the case. And the thing is, if she actually practice and improved her style, she could attract older people to her art who don't mind spending a little more as opposed to her relying on teenagers and young adults who don't have as much money to blow.

She didn't invent drawing outfits, or the thing where people draw on paper and color digitally. Yeah the other artits' inspiration is obvious but they're not even heavily referencing.

No. 572646

>>572642
Honestly I'm tired of all the people here raging about same face syndrome as if it bigger deal that it actually is. A lot of these characters are totally fine, they're different enough that you would't mix them together, each character having a distinct hairstyle and different eyes to create variety, sure the face shape and the noses are pretty much the same across all the characters but if the character is readable then that is good enough. Sometimes people just like drawing a certain thing and if they've found their niche, let them, same face is only really a problem when you can't literally tell the characters apart, because they look so similar, this is why in a lot of anime and manga main characters tend to be more identified by their hair than anything else.

I've actually been using Frenden's Brush Pack for a few months now and adore it. It does takes a while to find brushes you're comfortable with depending on what style you're going for as I recall there are 800+ brushes? But don't let the number intimidate you though, it's mainly like (X) named brush file then slight variants (wet, dry, textured, etc). For painting and inking they're incredibly useful as long as you know what you're doing with them. My current favorite brushes are called Painterly, Flatt Matt and an arrange of random inkers. Anyway, I think they're great if you're first getting into CSP and allow room for experimentation and well worth the 15 bucks imo.

Agreed. I can still tell all these characters apart just fine. They have varying facial features even if the expressions are toned down, I don't see how it's "same face syndrome". For a lot of people in this thread it just seems like a cope to deal with them being jealous of more successful and/or talented artists, just like pointing out nitpicky anatomy flaws even when the overall tone of the drawing allows a more flexible interpretation. Same face syndrome is more like when you have only one exact type of face and expression with identical features you keep repeating, something like >>571905 is much more closer to the definition.

You're right anon. I highly doubt using the typical Paint Tool Sai and Photoshop "broke" her old laptop, it's clear that the gaming was the culprit. I'm not sure about her old computer but it's clear that she's just can't be bothered to fix old working machinery. She strikes me as one of those people who always needs the next, new current thing but she lacks the funding to actually do it so she really can't afford to be choosy. Like what she said about her Huion, so what about the DPI?

This is my stance on sameface, too. It isn't a big deal in cartoony work where the artist has a good handling on expressions. This artist could still push it more and has potential.

So many artists try to fight sameface syndrome by giving their characters "unique" features but still keep the same stiff facial expression.

>>572763
What style are you going for? If you're just going for basic rendering, the stuff that comes with the software itself w/personal tweaks are what I've had the best experience with. Otherwise, I can try to help. I've played with lots and I know the marketplace can get overwhelming. There's a pixel art and a pastel-style set I'm in love with, for example.

Oh fucking christ. I thought her video on Creepshow was pretty good but, this is just pathetic and sad. It's like she's more mad that people are calling out a Youtuber she likes and doesn't even realize she's being a hypocrite herself. Creepshow isn't the best commentary channel but, atleast she doesn't act like a angry pissy 11 year old that just learned how to curse for the first time when shown. This chick is arguably worse and rightly getting called a hypocrite. She's saying "I stand firm in this". Nah. I give this video another week at most before she deletes it. She's a bitchy kid hiding behind her BPD just like Shane is hiding behind his sensitivity and depression. No wonder she stans him.

Wtf Shane helped orcestrate a plot with two other mid thirties millionaires to ruin another YouTuber by making up allegations of him, a teeanger, being a 'dangerous sexual predator' over vitamin gummies and when he is called out for it Shane says the teenager deserved it and he's so sad and anxious he can't be held accountable for his actions and is even doubling down as if he did nothing wrong.

I've never looked to deep into ArtCamp but followed him for the references packs and general advice, he always seemed narcissistic but it's not so uncommon among artists so it didn't stand out to me. Good thing people outed him, he doesn't deserve the attention he's getting. For what it's worth it's good he openly shared the 48 laws of power in the past so there's no wiggling his way out of this now, whatever he says we know it's either "surrender to recover", "make your victims feel smarter", "feign honesty & generosity" or some other shit.

Btw, creating an "art commune" in a context of him following rules like "create a cult-like following" sure seems interesting…

Bradley talking about these rules of power is by no means thing from the past, I think they were already married or about to get married when he was posting this on his twitter, according to timestamp, so there's no way she wouldn't know.

Going it alone might be the best option but it's also not going to get you anywhere if you're constantly running up against abusive men in positions of power that have each others' backs. It's all coming out right now, Cameron Stewart, writer and artist for Batgirl, was recently accused of grooming teenage girls.

Also Charles Brownstein, the leader of Comic Book Legal Defense Force (a non-profit that is meant to help comic artists with legal issues like protecting their IP etc, so exactly who independent female creators should be able to rely on) is also trending on twitter right now for being sexual predator.

Trying to read about these two I then ended up reading about Warren Ellis, another comic book writer and artist who is also a PoS. I had never heard of him but his Wikipedia includes work on on various famous comic lines such as Xmen, Iron Man and he even wrote the screen play for Netflix's Castelvania

I just wanted to look at some art today.

I wasn't sure if this is the right thread to talk about shannon (creepshow art) but as I have seen others talk about her here I will. I have been watching her for some time, I watch her much less now.

I've noticed that in every video about the first 3-6minutes is not about the topic but usually about her whether its related or not. In the recent chris hansen video she spent the first minute reliterating how stupid she was and how insulted she would feel about people thinking shes smart. Like, way to shoot yourself in the foot? Was that supposed to be endearing, shannon? Its like self deprication for the sake of making people like her?
Also its annoys me that she will say ten sentences in a row which are the exact same thing just worded differently. Like, we get it shannon, get on with the fucking story already. I used to watch her because I was interested in the topics she covers, but the fact she takes 25minutes to explain a story that could be told in 5 all the while littering it with personal "anecdotes" about herself (yes, its in quotes because the stuff she says about herself is neither quirky or interesting) has made me look elsewhere for videos on these topics.

No. 573840

>>573838
Yeah. Any time I watched a video by her, I would always skip the first 5 minutes. Then I would skip forward ten seconds any time she started going off on one of her "uwu quirky wordage" spiels.
She is incredibly unfocused, unfunny, and uninteresting. She has nothing to say, she just releases hot air.

People in this thread bitch about Baylee who's at worst just lazy. You think people aren't gonna point and laugh at a yelling, proud fujoshi, that's mad at drama channels for criticizing someone she's liked since she was a teenager? Her art is the typical soft girl shit and she has the same fanbase as Holly Brown that like her for being "blunt" and "honest". It doesn't matter that she has a smaller following than Shannon if she's just as bad content wise.

I get that, I’m not saying she’s the best channel, far from it. I just don’t understand entirely the backlash she’s getting, like, from her initial video on Shannon, you could tell that she is just like her, but then, when she makes a video that Shane “isn’t a bad guy” (which we all know is shit), why is she getting flag? Is it because she pointed out that Shannon isn’t good, people expected her to also be better?

No. 574157

Samefagging, but I brought up her channel size because of the fact that she isn’t like Shannon who has built her career on giving “””insight””” on drama, people had respected Shannon on that, until recent activities where she has directly accused an individual rather than being like Tobi who is hasn’t and impulsively made a video to say that she supports the scumbag Shane.
To rephrase It doesn’t seem hypocritical, but more ignorant. While Shannon wasn’t ignorant of her actions

She has built alot of her channel on giving insight on drama. The most viewed videos on her channel aside from the Creepshow have to deal with giving insight on the LumiStarBun situation, SquigglyDigg's terrible take on Lilo and Stitch, and whining about Atozy calling Idubbz's girlfriend a thot. She critiqued Shannon for being impulsive with her videos when she made an impulsive screaming rant on why drama channels are bad with heavy bias. Shannon is a dumbass that doesn't think before she posts sure, but Tobi is just as fucking guilty on being bitchy about shit and this situation just tipped people off on how whiny she is still being stuck in her teen years. Shannon constantly blames her mental illness for shit and Tobi is saying she won't make a response because it's bad for her BPD. They're peas in a pod and Tobi tries to hide it behind "My videos are for fun and not for giving serious critique!"

The show is meant for adults but really pulls in edgy teens or unstable child adults. V also has a huge fan base because anyone can copy her art style and make fan art. Though I sympathize with her animators. They clearly don't get enough credit and it's a very thankless job. But at least they have something on their portfolios for when they bail.
