It's fine when she does it, right? Fuck off, her art comes off as more disrespectful since they're all ugly as sin.

If you block these types of people because they cause drama nonstop, you are racist for targetting them. You will never win in this fight, especially since their behavior is socially acceptable on twitter/tumblr because its in the name of allyship/activism.

We non americans really need to learn to cater as little as possible to american kids if we want to avoid them while we still can't block whole countries.
>>725767>>725770Yes her "sister" confuses me a lot too because she said that it was her sister who made the anti native tweets but them a person tweeted claiming to have been the one to have made the tweets but that person had he/they on profile. Also on some tweets it was her friends telling her that it was defenitely her sister and I relly don't know how other people would know that better than herself.

>>725795I can respect well enough that but you really gotta be careful. You gotta try to get a really good feel for the vibes of the people you're thinking of following. Do not interact with people that seem childish, and I'd personally advise you to really avoid people that seem to be way too into IdPol (maybe you also want to support other types of minorities, but imo you should be careful with way to many minority labels in bio being a warning sign).
If you want to get more variety in your following list try to go for the professional people at first, like people that have worked for disney or dream works or etc… those people have an actual job that expects them to act professional so they can't be walking around publicly acting like children
>>725805 's list is also pretty good. Turning of the replies may make some people think you're suspicious but the other stuff sounds legit. If you're not american try not attracting american followers. I have never heard of this type of drama between other nations. I'd advise you to keep a mindset of "few good followers are better than a lot of potentially bad followers"
A lot of the other advice is also good. Be nice, don't be political, don't be toooo opinionated, maybe avoid certain types of edginess that may bite you in the butt later, steer as far away as possible from people you already know like to cause drama
Last thing, for the love of the Lord do not post stuff that could get you doxxed.

"WTF you are defending your friends instead of throwing them under the bus to side with a bunch of sperg ass childish people on twitter dot com? those people are black so you are being racist!"
>>725816In places like instagram I think you can be more lenient cuz it's more chill, but on twitter I think it really might be worth it to purposefully atract less followers in order to have a more peaceful following base. Art is a visual medium anyway, so I think so long as you actually use twitter to post mostly art instead of hot takes you will atract people that are there for the art and not for random drama.
And to atract the eastern fandoms I think you should just interact more with them. Don't do the thread that are popular with the US, do the ones that are popular with Easterners. I have no experience with this but this sounds like something you could think of triying.

I think most foreigners are fine with westerners, but there is an obvious culture clash in fandom spaces. Especially if the westerner is some idiot 20 year old stan who would write 'omg ur killing me!!' Or 'takE THIS DOWN FKAJFJAHFHSJAJ' Because foreigners will take that literally.

>>726240When it stops working, is it just the pen pressure that stops and you can still move the cursor around and stuff via the tablet? If that's the case (and all your drivers are updated) then I get the same issue now and again, usually after saving. You can either restart CSP or go to File>Preferences>Tablet and change the setting from WinTab to TabletPC, confirm, then go back into that menu and change it back to WinTab.
If the tablet itself just stops working altogether then that could be more of a driver issue - I use a wacom and now and then it still does that "driver not found" bs and forces a restart to fix it.
As you mentioned it's your first tablet, I'd doublecheck that you installed the drivers correctly; iirc if you plug the tablet in before installing the drivers, windows will install its own tablet software automatically first. I'd also look up how to disable "Windows Ink" if you haven't already, it assigns some gestures to the tablet which can be inconvenient (like a "press and hold" input which can lag your strokes).

>>727156I agree that anime characters are usually so stylized that they read as race-neutral or eurasian. However you'll see that like in death note for example they draw the caucasian people quite differently with large noses and deep-set eyes and prominent brow bones.
Japanese people don't think of themselves as having yellow skin and slit eyes (because they don't, but that's what would make them read east asian to a western audience) so they can project the characters as japanese. Kind of how you could show people a stick figure or similarly simplified cartoon dude and an american would assume they are white whereas a japanese person would think they are asian.
Besides I think when an anime character is portrayed as living in japan with a japanese name and speaking japanese it would be a stretch to assume they are white.

I would had liked the Bloom drawing a lot more if it weren't for the t-shirt and shoes cuz those things stuck out to me like a sore thumb fr
Also this part may be nitpicking, but why the heck would you put such strong shadow on top of the hair bangs? Where's the light supposed to be coming from?
The new design being way more muted is because she's a pastel artist, and pastel artists always make everything more muted to fit their aesthetic. Imo would be interesting if she made a "forcing myself to use strong colours" challenge vid (tbh most likely would just be like the realism vids and it would take her 2 years for her to realise what "saturated" actually means, but it would still be progress)
Funniest part of it to me tho was how she mentioned netflix making her powers come out of her hands instead of staffs as them erasing the magical girl influence but then she did the same herself lol

But I'm also super petty so…
At least those copycats usually have no skill. Some do but because they just copied the style they are stuck with extreme sameface syndrome, see all of the loish copycats like lotusbubble and joyblivion whereas loish is actually able to draw different faces and likenesses when she chooses to.

It took me a long time to understand how out of hand it's gotten so I get why it doesn't seem like a big deal.
>>725787My advice is this;
>Never join discords>Keep talking to an absolute minimum in public>If you have any old accounts, contact archive.org to delete any archives of sensitive info that could be found on you (if they exist), then purge everything once it's removed>Never use real information>If you can keep what languages you speak vague, this is a good thing. These creeps don't tend to come after people who speak things like chinese, japanese, russian etc. So limiting the amount of english you post is a plus.>Do not use the same email and password for your internet stuff as your real life stuff. I know it's a hassle but you have to keep everything separate incase anyone ever got in. I'd imagine most popular artists have regular attempts to access and compromise their accounts. Start using randomly generated passwords and a password manager like Keepass.>Don't bother blocking people, it won't really help you because people like this will harass you further if they find out and they tend to have multiple alts anyway. Instead, mute them and turn off notifications from anyone who you don't follow. Turn off DMs too.>If a harassment campaign starts, immediately deactivate and wait it out. If you're not around then people won't care about hassling you because that's boring and they won't get attention. In a few weeks they will have moved on to their next target so it will be ok to reactivate, just keep a low profile.>If you can help it, avoid following back randos you don't know. Back in the day following artists was generally fine but nowadays you have to be careful, in my experience a ton of them tend to gravitate towards drama and you don't know if they'll ever have a perceived slight towards you for unfollowing them, not retweeting their posts etc. Only follow people you know are ok and be selective.>Don't talk about anything that isn't art and even at that, avoid giving any real opinions on anything. I saw one artist get dragged last year for a several year old tumblr post they had made about Lilo and Stitch, I think, saying that they didn't like Lilo because they thought she was a brat and it spiraled in to that they were a racist. It still hasn't let up to this day. People like this will search for things you say to take out of context and put spin on it so it's better to just not give them ammunition. No. 728086

I've been an active artist online for years in various communities and have never had an issue.
Also that Lilo and Stitch discourse person got called a racist because they had actively racist shit on their tumblr that got found and was a Trump supporter. It wasn't "several years ago" it was like last year when it happened and they linked to their posts about the discourse on their twitter.

Reading comprehension, anon. I said it happened last year and that their tumblr post was from years beforehand, 2017 I believe. That's also not true either because I saw it firsthand, it started when people started dogpiling them as a racist because saying Lilo as a brat was apparently a micro aggression of other cultures as Lilo's behaviors have to do with the fact there are tourists/expats invading her town (like the girls in the dance studio) and she was a white woman "bullying" (lol) a brown girl according to the masses. After that obviously the digging in to the tumblr started and what you're describing followed but she was being called a racist for that specifically and there was multiple tweets about it with thousands of likes.

It's just that people couldn't have simply left it at "hey your opinion is shit actually", they had to dramaticise it to absurd levels to make it seem it was much more serious than it was.
As well, I was using it as an example (pretty much just the first one that came to mind), something like this set her up for people to harass her with in the future (and opened herself up to people digging for dirt on her) so it's better to just avoid setting yourself up for these kinds of scenarios to begin with.

Obviously it's not meant to be racist but it's not really disdain for african features, it's just the art is ugly. The lesbian and trans accessories clash so much with the rest of the design, and her left hand is posed or coloured weird (it looks like she's doing the spock hand thing but with her fist closed).
Also, it's not just african features, she's also fat, wich is slighly hard to not look bad, and she has a tooth gap, wich just makes her look like a (basically unsalvageable)

I also owned an Intuos FYI, one of the older medium size models from the early 2010s.
I'm not sure of a solution, however, one thing I always would do is open up the Wacom tablet management utility (you should have it downloaded already, it comes with your drivers) and make a save of my current tablet settings. then, I'd reload the tablet's drivers by uploading "new" settings by providing it that saved settings file. worked like a charm, and stops you from having to reboot.

Sakura Miku and the models posted upthread can be related directly to Hatsune Miku because at least the face And body type looks like hers, but black trans lives matters ACAB transbian Hatsune Miku doesn’t even have the same body shape of any recolor or normal fanart of Hatsune Miku.

I think official Miku can look however the official sources want to and it still is recognizable as Miku, which is a good thing. What woke artists do is shitty and the drawings they make look like people cosplaying miku at best. I wouldn't call them miku myself, I think they're too ugly for that. It's the whole real life undertale shit again, forcing everything to be woke and political is fucking tiring. There's a difference between racial variety (which is good) and whatever these artists are doing.

Plus, big noses aren't exactly unique to African people, and tons of Africans have "distinctly" thin noses (as in, distinct shapes, but not bigger).

There's no such thing as "mulatto features", because that's just a term for the child of two different individuals, both of which can have any set of genetics/features from their classified black/white races (each of which have wide ranges and pools/ethnicities, contrary to American belief).

>>728649According to cookie run ovebreak this is his description:
Purple Yam Cookie was baked in extreme temperatures again and again until the heat finally got to his head. Ever since, Purple Yam Cookie has been in an angered state (to say the least!) that's why we advise being extremely cautious around him. When the wrath kicks in, this Cookie begins to crush and smash the surroundings in a dangerous tornado of rage. And as if that wasn't enough, Purple Yam Cookie is always eager to fight someone! The Cookie claims that no one has suffered in the "flames of hell" more than him, but little does he know that - in fact - other Cookies went through the Witch's oven too…
Also hus design is based from beserker class.

>>728649In cookie run there are other characters that are interpreted as black when drawn in human form and they are not aggressive, violent or scary looking. That cookie is afair the only one that's always angry and they're dark because they're called Yam Cookie and yams are dark (purple). In the game most of the "legendary cookies" (which are the most powerful ones, let's say) can be interpreted as
poc and they all have different and cute/cool personalities. So it's really not a problem.

Either way it's actually a bit funny to me, I think Javi drama is sorta on the way to be dead now, simply because those people lost interest and went on to the black Mikus and then to retweeting every "is black history month I'm black gimme money" tweet.

>"Haha your such a pervert for fucking a highschool student">"Would you stop saying that, we're the same age!"Ngl, I thought it was weird. I imagine the people who masturbate to it like to self-insert in the art, so who in their right mind thinks it's sexy to hear anime characters talk about how they are in highschool. Again, I imagine it's a self-insert kind of thing and I personally would feel grossed out if my partner said something like that even if we were both the same age lmao. It looked like some kind of weird "Hey this character is in highschool, but they are barely legal so it's technically ok to jackoff to this!" thing, imo.

and even then you STILL have to make a big investment to get a decent iPad/Samsung tablet that can perform as well as a bare minimum laptop/pc with brands as big as Wacom

>>729679True… these tablets are a nice to have when you want a new shiny thing and to be able to draw digitally on the go. I'm a professional illustrator and character designer and I like to sketch up drafts on my iPad that I can move to PS later. It cannot replace a wacom + PC combo though, it's just a fun luxury for me. Even the largest iPad screen is small, the software options are limited and while procreate is a snappy program with a nice UI it's overrated imo.
I think it's just trendy right now, just like everyone thought you NEEDED 200 copic markers to be a good artist now they think all they "need" is to buy a super expensive tablet. It's a way for these companies to make a lot of money and for mediocre artists to make excuses why their huion tablet is what's holding them back from improving.

This is tangenial to the screen tablet topic, but don't knock out 2-in-1 laptops if you need both a drawing device and app flexiblity. /ic/ will out right say to avoid Microsoft because of their N-Trig/MPP tech, but I love my Surface Pro 7; this may be because it's a newer model, but unless lineart is your absolute lifeblood, it should be fine. I paint, so I never notice line wobble or palm rejection issues.
The Samsung Galaxy Flex has Wacom technology, but the price is seriously inflated compared to both mobile screen tablets and it's 2-in-1 competitors in terms of specs. Also, you'll want a seperate compatible Wacom pen because the one it comes with is dingy.
HP offer several good options. The XP Spectre X360 also has MPP but in videos it again should be fine unless you work slowly or do a lot of lineart. It's the option if you want to game aswell, as older games like Overwatch will run if you're willing to play on a 13.5" or 15" screen. It's a flex tablet, not a true 2-in-1 so you'll have to consider your comfort with the keyboard and bevels. Avoid the OLED if you can.
In conclusion: Drawing laptops are viable if you A) can afford it and B) benefit from a single device. I don't recommend them unless you need desktop OS exclusive stuff; I needed Adobe After Effects for uni now the edit suites are closed and could afford to upgrade my art setup at the same time. The cheapest MS Surface Pro 7 I found was £1300 brand new but I got it second hand for around £1000 with pen and keyboard as seperate costs. It's near identical to the Pro 6, so unless you have to garentee power like I did, that's another cost to consider.
I recommend MobileTechReview. Great channel where they show the painting capiblities better than some.
tl;dr: Drawing laptops are good now, but expensive, judy don't ignore them if you really need desktop app. Also, ignore my spelling. /ic/ are crabs.

It probably takes you a fair bit of time to do a realistic portrait and tbere a tbe huge headache of dealing with the client so even at a starting price I’d say go no lower than 150- and that’s ONLY because you’re inexperienced with commissions, you should keep raising it after each commission until you’re at a comfortable fair level, it has nothing to do with your follower count.

If you charge, say, 100$ and you get only 1/3rd as many commissions as you would at 30$, you've still made more money - and spent less time doing commissions. That's a win/win. Don't get fooled by people who are doing nonstop commissions for like 5$ that they claim are "for rent." Those people dont make enough to live on, they are just selling an image of themselves as someone who is more of a "real artist" and better than wageslaves working at a day job. If anything, they're constantly broke and ruining their chances at a career in art by giving themselves debilitating repetitive strain injuries by 24.
Don't listen to anyone who says people need to be willing to start with low prices or makes any "big/small" arguments, because most of those people are either just upset that they were conned into that same mistake and push others into it, or they're jealous that they can't earn enough money to support themselves via art.

To me it seems like getting all that ig fame when you are still young and should be in a learning and experimenting phase really stunts any improvement. They find one thing that gets many likes on ig and start drawing nothing but that thing. They probably have much more potential than that.
Honestly since my online following grew I'm also struggling with this. I know that likes don't really matter in the end but it feels like ig followers want to see exactly the same thing from you all the time and with a large following it's almost like you are disappointing so many people when you try something different.

It really upsets me that i spent many hours drawing yet nobody appreciates it! Isn't it upsetting?" Of course, it baited lots of angry replies from the indo art community. Not only once, the anon continued their fess,"Why y'all so offended/angry?" Followed by the last,"Thanks to your anger, I hate drawing bc of my anxiety" before getting blocked by the admin.
Tbh, most indo artists have amateur-ish artstyle (wonky anatomy, poor grasp of coloring+rendering) but they often do kpop fanarts, cute but mainstream doodles that made them "popular". A big hit or miss i'd say

>>731090 not really art related
This happened to my friend who went to art school, but she and another girl in the major liked the same guy. In response to this, the girl bullied my friend and often accused my friend of plagiarizing art for years until an upperclassman found out and told everyone in the major about it.
My friend is working on studio positions now, but the original girl still has no gigs. I think its wild how she blew up her career over some boy.

>>731063I think she shouldn't had done this. Those people were already starting to forget about it (because they have the attention span of a baby looking a jiggling keys) and it was very obvious at this point they aren't going to accept anything. She already had apologysed and it didn't work before.
Only explanation I can find is if this was actually only targeted at the people that followed her but then someone leaked. I can actually understand making this for any followers that are still worried but actually want to give her a chance, but even then I think I would had given it just some more days.

I understand that it is very common for trends pioneered by Black women to receive backlash until they are gentrified by white women, and I’m genuinely sorry about the ignorance of this remark and that I contributed to that pain and erasure.

>>731090Haha okay
One I affectionately call Hagrid. She was nice and cool but pretty flaky and kind of dirty judging by the smell. Once I babysat her pets and she had left a large shit covered dildo stuck to the side of her bathtub. Another time Hagrid hugged my housemate and left a patch of sweat on her top, which left a stubborn BO smell. Apart from her personal hygiene issues, Hagrid was unfortunate looking and quite overweight. Fortunately, this had zero effect on her confidence, however. She would slack off all semester, then whip out some rushed photos of herself naked because something something Laura Mulvey something, every time. We came to expect this of Hagrid, and were unsurprised when she hadn't shown up with work during our graduation show installation. On the last day she strode in with several rolls under her arms and some wallpaper paste. She installed some billboard sized photographs of herself starkers with a Brazilian (surprising and strangely hilarious), bare fanny on our seminar room seats, with what initially looked like red lines criss-crossing around the picture. On closer inspection, it turned out Hagrid had pierced holes in her body, left the canula in and threaded red wool through the holes - then attached them to hooks etc. in the roof. All hell broke loose: the technicians started shitting themselves about health and safety, students started yelling about how gross it was that they had been unknowingly sat on chairs that Hagrid had rubbed her fetid genitals all over. The lecturers started scrambling to find some sort of curtain to seal off the room she was exhibiting in because of how explicit these pictures were and there were families coming for the opening night. Hilarious. Hagrid gave not one shit.
No. 731205
>>731187Yeah, she really is a character. After graduation we kept in touch and she told me that she was going to open up her relationship of ten years. I said "Oh cool, did you or Mr. Hagrid suggest that?" (Mr. Hagrid was off-putting in his own way but was at least charismatic and quite kind)
She said it was her idea, that she was too good looking to stay with one man, that she was a very sexual woman, that they had had conversations about taking turns using their bed etc. In a double feature, she came out as pan and asked if I was interested. I politely declined and asked her to keep me posted on how she was doing. I felt really bad for Mr. Hagrid, because he was a nice guy and if anything, Hagrid was the one punching above her weight.
Fast forward a few weeks, we meet up again. Hagrid is deflated. She tells me that she hasn't managed to hook up with anybody, despite her best efforts. Mr. Hagrid, however, had been an unexpected hit with the ladies and was bringing new women home every weekend. This had very clearly not worked out the way Hagrid had envisioned.
I heard they broke up shortly after, living in the same house together, but Mr. Hagrid had taken the master bedroom and become part of a polycule. Hagrid was living in the computer room, and I felt quite sorry for her. She has been trying hard since to bag a man but has extremely high standards and doesn't understand why they're not interested in her.

>>731090I used to study at a design + art only college (recentry transfered to a much better one bc of multiple reasons) and on my 4th or so semester there our class was divided in groups for a graded project in which each group had to create a brand complete with a website, service and a brandbook.
One of the groups had a girl that was actually from 6th semester in it (i'm p sure she failed the class) and they made a vegan fashion brand thing and their work was pretty complete, plus it was a teacher favourite as well to the point some of my classmates even got a bit annoyed.
Well, on the night BEFORE our groups' final presentation, turns out that the 6th semester girl stole her group's entire project and used it for one of her assignments, claiming it was her own. It was found out because one of our teachers was also grading that other class and recognized the project.
Needless to say, the girl got a 0 on both projects and i'm preeeetty sure she left shortly after.

Okay this is a little too personal al but I need to get it off my chest because I’ve never said it:
There was a girl in my school who was a little too interested in me because I was a teen mom (as a teenager, not in school).and treated me like I was poverty porn. it got to the point that the semester after I left she painted this picture of herself on the toilet having an unplanned pregnancy (taking the test).
I tried not to talk about the fact that I was a mom very much or at all unless I got to know someone as my friend, and it’s always surprised people because I don’t look the type. I didn’t want to talk about it because I know going to art school in hopes of doing it as a profession is controversial enough, and I hated now once people found out it was the only thing they could think of me as.
Thanks to a mutual extremely gossipy extremely catty gay friend of ours she found out. She immediately typed me as a pathetic poor loser and tried to have a sentimental one on one talk with me about all the trials and tribulations about being a parent when she caught me alone one night in the studio (though she wasn’t a parent herself). She made a grand assumption that it took me forever to get through college and when I was graduating she said “don’t feel bad, our teacher took 8 years to graduate!” To which I replied “I’ve only taken one extra semester, it’s only taking me 4 1/2”.
During my final semester in college I was having a terrible time for personal reasons. I was doing extremely well the year before, and a lot of people took notice and I think some of my teachers and peers thought I would succeed, but it came crashing down that final semester and that’s when she became really obsessed and mean. She would talk behind my back and imply that is was really loose/slutty and lazy to my closest friend, and god knows what she said to my teachers because after that my favorite teacher started talking to me differently too, which totally crushed my confidence.
I think she was obsessed with me because neither of us fit in, but for opposite reasons. We went to a contemporary art college in a university, but I wanted to be an illustrator and she wanted to be an art teacher, and both things were stigmatized for different reasons in our school. She was a real tradthot, a Republican when trump was getting elected and felt out of place and shat on by our liberal peers. She didn’t want to do anything but get married and have kids, I wish she would have just fucking quit and done so. All she ever talked about was how she was buying a house and getting married. She came from money.
Following up with her after I graduated:: that’s when she painted this fucking picture of herself, when we all know she never had an unplanned pregnancy. She followed it up with another pic of her and her redneck boyfriend trying to “figure out the bills”, which was retarded because her fiances starting salary was 60k a year. She was always fantasizing about being poor and struggling and literally 75% of her paintings were self portraits in situations like these.
The icing on the cake was that she went to art school first to be an art teacher, but changed her mind to be a gallery artist because everyone thought Art Ed was for people who suck at art. About a year after she graduated with her changed Studio Art degree she went back for Art Ed because lo and behold: she really did suck.
Cropping this and taking a screenshot so as not to dox this girl, but she is my personal Lolcow, though I’m sure I was a cow to her.

With that out of the way though…
>treated me like I was poverty porn. it got to the point that the semester after I left she painted this picture of herself on the toilet having an unplanned pregnancy (taking the test).Hoooooly shit. fuck. Fuck her, this is legiiiiit fucking disgusting. Like, this is narcissist behaivor. Making everything about herself, being so self centered and victimizing herself over your situation. God you have no idea how disgusted at this bitch I am right now. Ughhh.
>Thanks to a mutual extremely gossipy extremely catty gay friend of ours she found out. God, of fucking course, faggots like this are the fucking worst. You might think "oh let's excuse them because they're gay" but scrotes are still scrotes. I'm not homophobic, I just hate this kind of faggots that think they're hot shit and talk about girls and their personal issues like they're nothing. Fuck them.
>She immediately typed me as a pathetic poor loser and tried to have a sentimental one on one talk with me about all the trials and tribulations about being a parent when she caught me alone one night in the studio (though she wasn’t a parent herself).Holy fuck. Imagine thinking you have the last say in someone's situation when she DOESN'T know. Shit. I feel so fucking angry because you aren't a pathetic loser. This condencending shit is the worst, like… imagine being so invested in your life. This ties in with making the painting too. The fuck? I'm angry.
SHE IS the pathetic loser. She used you to feel better about herself and use your life for personal masturbatory purposes. God, what the fuck.
> She would talk behind my back and imply that is was really loose/sluttyWhat the fuck. So she knew you were normal and succesful and in order to make herself feel better she did this to you. UGH jesus christ. I feel so fucking angry anon. I want to slap her super hard. Imagine thinking having a baby turns you into a slut. God… brainrot.

I wanted to show the other picture I mentioned of her and her fiance "figuring out the bills" or whatever, apparently both of these paintings were called "It Takes Two" which really pisses me off because its some kind of direct allusion to the types of things people would say to me when I was pregnant.
The picture of her on the toilet was what she considered her magnum opus, its the only picture on her website landing and the one in the front of the gallery, along with being the painting she and all of her family took her graduation photos in front of. Its sick to me to see these upper middle class people go to her gallery show and see images like these and not question her or her motives of why she would be fantasizing about such a thing. They'd never do that because all they ever do is talk about how perfect she is.
>also just for fun had to include that super cringey portrait of her and her mother at her wedding kekI think she was very obsessed because she wanted to be shallow friends with everyone, but not to really build true friendships. This genuinely confused me because when she reached out to me I thought she was being nice but she was really just being nosy and trying to get some kind of affirmation that I, a lowly working class citizen, could even like her. At first I tried to be nice but after that confrontation she tried to have with me and with the stress I was having I stopped humoring her. I couldn't figure out how to make time for my painting class, so my canvases were often really unfinished, she came up to me one day and said "Hey anon! Do you want some advice on how to paint?" and I just replied "Noooo" and she looked pretty scorned.
This morning I realized that this might be tinfoiling, because apparently her Marine cousin is stationed in Japan, but one other thing she did that was bizarre was to have her Artist's Residency in rural Japan. You could have your artists residency almost anywhere, no ones saying you have to leave the country or even your state and out of the entire globe she picks Japan. I can't help but think this is some kind of reach to be friends, to be thought of as cool by her peers, or -whats most likely in my mind- some kind of spiteful ownership of Japanese culture. I say this because we went to school with a lot of people who were weebs or just generally liked anime, and she didn't exactly see eye to eye or understand their fixation on it. One of my best friends, the one who told me about what she said behind my back, cut her off and basically confronted her about being a bitch, he happened to be a huge weeb so I can't help but think this is some personal stab or reach at him. I can see her acting like she's some kind of cultured goddess now, and that weebs are just perverse cultural appropriators (she thought my friend was sick and perverted because he had a crush on her best friend), when if you search through her facebook you just see her family talking about the weird food they had (because ho ho they got to go visit too) and her getting mcdonalds after going to a "sushi conveyor belt restaurant" because she didn't like anything there.
This was only a year after she got to go to Italy on her mom's dime. While I was in school with her she was like "the class president" or whatever you call it in art school, and she tried to organize a class trip to Italy. Of course no one signed up and she basically threw herself a pity party so her mom took her herself.

Could anyone recommend me some coloring pens?
I was looking for some of decent quality but I've spent the last three hours looking at all the many different types that I'm just overwhelmed…
I'm just looking for something good that can be used for adult coloring books and sketchbooks. How many colors do I need to begin with? 12 maybe?
My budget is somewhere around 20-50 dollars. I'd like to get pens because I'm really bad at keeping my pencils sharp.
(Sorry if this has been asked before!)
No. 732684
>>732591The thing with pencils is that you can easily layer them so you would get away with fewer colours.
What stuff do you want to colour in? Nature, humans, fantasy creatures? Like there are sets with limited colour palettes (like green and browns for nature) which could be better if you, say, don't need neon pink bc all you do is painting cacti (unless you want neon pink cacti).
I personally like Stabilo Pen 68. They have a good 30 piece set and also have smaller themed sets like Pastel or Narwhal (different blue shades). Keep in mind that they're felt tip pens which means they're streaky but they're also a bit water-soluble right after application so you may be able to fade them a bit with a water brush pen.
Or you look up Arteza Real Brush Pens. The 48 set has a nice variety and they seem to be around 30 dollars. There are probably a shit ton of videos on youtube about them since Arteza sponsors everyone and their cat.
No. 732774
>>732684Hey anon! Thank you so much for the recommendations.
You've introduced me to two new brands!
Pencils really seem cool but I want something that I can just pick and up color with. Home office is taking a toll on my concentration skills and I've realized that I concentrate better in meetings when I'm doodling (compared to mindless browsing on Reddit etc). I've had a history of losing my pencil sharpeners throughout my school career so that's one reason why I prefer pens (I've thrown away all of my basic pencils and replaced them with mechanical pencils lol).
I think I'd like to start with a variety of colors. I was looking a bit at Tombow but they're a bit more expensive so the two alternatives you've mentioned seem like a better start. I see that you mentioned them being water-soluble - is it "normal" to use water when coloring with pens? Does that mean I should always have another brush or something at hand?
Also, is the Stabilo series of better quality than the Arteza series? (since they're spending so much money on promotion).
One more thing, any recommendations for paper (I'm looking for something like a nice looking A5 sketchbook)?
No. 732811
>>732774Nayrt but I would like to add that it's easy to make sure you keep a wooden pencil sharpener near your pencils. Pencils don't dry out when you leave the cap off, they don't leak, they don't get muddy.
Pens are plastic and stay in the earth forever.

>>732160I actually take more inspiration from pinterest (/ocasionally google images)
I understand the definition of the words but it's more that I don't have the "feel" for it, if that makes sense. Like if I take only the pants, am I copiying the pants but taking inspiration from the outfit? Is that bad?
I'm probably over-stressing, but seeing people sometimes point out artists for directly directly referencing stock pictures makes me feel unsure if I maybe don't consider certain things stealing when they are.
>>732279I actually hadn't used many moodboards before (except twice in I think 2019 when some people made challenges with them on insta) and I think that actually sounds like good advice (I had almost forgotten moodboards were even a thing haha)
That part about building up a visual library I know it's true, it's just I spent many years drawing very generic stuff so I'm basically starting from 0, and I just don't want people to think I'm stealing if I accidentally reference something too much.

>>733010PLEASE enlighten me to where this person works or anyone notable project they've had published if they're really working in the "industry". Anyone can buy a website, anon.
Just look at this screenshot I've taken, 4 different pictures, all different styles. I meant "frankenstein portfolio" because their portfolio doesn't have any real strong direction or theme without any really well fleshed out projects. Its just an amalgamation of a bunch of basic ideas, like portraits with a few actual illustrations sprinkled in when they're really supposed to be the bulk of the portfolio.
Not to mention, its not all even in the same style, some of it is colored line art, some of it is painterly (bad painterly). There's even a BUNCH of godawful super obvious fanart. That's why its called a franksentein portfolio, and its a dead give away of an amateur in the industry. Imagine how frankenstein is pieced together with with pieces of different bodies, just like their portfolio is pieced together with different art styles and genres. This person isn't experienced enough to actually have finished enough pieces (literally you only need 12) to make a full portfolio so they have to prop it up with a bunch of random garbage. Like, they literally haven't even drawn enough finished pieces they can't even meet the QUANTITY of pieces needed, regardless of quality.
They're unmarketable. They're even more unmarketable by mouthing off so much on twitter. No one wants to work with someone they're afraid they may offend and be put on blast on twitter for.

>>733049Okay, so we already know you’re clearly blind and on a resentful vendetta against some twitter nobody who’s barking at other poor artists to listen to them lmao
Fan art is extremely popular in the art community, a lot of artists love to make fan art because right now it is very “marketable” and garners people with similar niche and interests to their brand or material (if they have a social media).
No one should draw in one style because again retard-chan, that defeats the purpose. Pretty sure companies are looking for versatile and flexible artists, especially those who want to do character design or animation. The rest of your critique is valued by your own personal taste.

>>733047Samefag, these are her character designs. It's like she took the original outfits and added one or two things to them. Like, wow, you took Catwoman's suit and cut the midsection out, and gave Poison Ivy's outfit some lace and strings. How creative. Very art.
Idk, I think this person should definitely work on being more creative in their designs. I think that's something painters usually struggle with.
>>733049Idk anon, I'm definitely not an art industry professional, but I don't think her portfolio is
that bad. I don't see why employers wouldn't like portraits of celebrities or drawing in different styles. Obviously you want to show what styles you're strongest at first and foremost (and I'm pretty sure her strongest is her painting), but people want to see what other styles you can do. And doing portraits of celebrities could show that you can accurately capture/copy a persons features. Like, it's one thing to do a portrait of a random person you saw on the street, it's another thing to do a painting of Obama.

>>733063Lol, you're cute. I wonder if you're the artist I'm shitting on. I am an industry artist and I really hesitate on saying that because I know how many rungs on the ladder there is to climb. This person has begun the climb but is still pretty far on the bottom. Once again, I'd really love to know what work they've actually done.
I have no personal vendetta on this person, otherwise I wouldn't have been asking who they were or where they worked, I cant even tell what gender they are. I DO have a problem with people race baiting like she does and taking over an industry and a past time I've loved since I was a little kid. People like her are responsible for the total overtaking of the Western comic world and making it abhorrently full of leftist propaganda. Western comics never could catch up the creativity and variety in Eastern and now its full of a bunch of new rules about what you can and can't show, what your characters can and can't look like. And before you think Im right winged I'm not, theses people just ruin everything by shoving their politics and agendas down everyones throats until they can't stand it anymore. Pic related, I used to love this writer until she had some kind of episode and decided to channel all her hatred into her work and DC just ate it up.
And I'm sorry but you just have no idea what you're talking about.
The art community =/= the industry.
You need a wake up call. Real professionals don't spend all day on twitter, they genuinely don't have time for that shit. There's no way they could ever keep up with all this ridiculous drama and they're all too old for it anyway.
I'm sure you have some forerunners in your mind you're thinking of, like Babbs Tarr but even she is older than you think and she's been placed there purposefully, to make DC seem young and relatable. She represents about .01% of the people who actually work for that company. She's a token along with all of these other twitter warriors.

>>733165You should read This One Sunmer. It’s so subtle and beautifully done and really should be the anthem for lolcow, it’s really a great female centered graphic novel.

No. 733273
>>733191Thanks I'll look for it at my library. I read the lesbian one Laura dean keeps breaking up with me and I think the whole friend side story being brushed off and like kind of accepted was like planting a seed in teenagers minds that that type of relationship is ok. And then the main character acting like she knows hardship because her two best guy friends are Hispanic/poor while she's well to do and has nothing to worry about except laura dean. It was just really annoying, like I remember how condoning manga was/is of
toxic abusive relationships you'd think writers would have a moral obligation to try to teach kids something instead of trying to be edgy.
And then when I read the plot of Skim I started thinking it was intentional that she has these plots of young teenager getting with older person.

I wouldn’t be surprised if you were right about the younger-older dating dynamic because in This One Summer a pretty significant part of the book is a 12 year old having a crush on probably a 16-20 year old .

> is it „normal“ to use water when coloring with pensHm, it seems that all those people who do a lot of colouring books love to do gradients. Gradients are a bit easier with water based media/ water-soluble media in my experience. (But I mainly work in water colours, soooo …)
Stabilo is more of an office supply, and they‘re produced where I live. So I like to go for them for doodling because they’re easy to buy for me and their ink is really bright and colourful.
Arteza is a relatively young brand, I think. They started sponsoring a lot of bigger and smaller youTube artist‘s, I’d say, between two to three years ago. They like to call themselves professionell art supplies but they more like a better student quality. Which means they‘re perfect for doodling because you can get a decent quality for a decent price so using them for mindless/ fun stuff/ experiments doesn‘t feel like wasting them.
Maybe this review is helpful to you:
https://youtu.be/Vp2yBglNQJsShe mentions feathering and bleed through in the video which is probably because of the paper. So it can be that there‘s paper out there that can handle them better – which I sadly don‘t know because I don‘t have them, only thought of buying them myself. If this doesn‘t bother you at all, the Arteza sketchbook might fit you well, too?
Paper to recommend: Maybe Daler & Rowney Mixed Media, it‘s what I use for watercolor sketching.
Or you can use other mixed media papers like Canson XL. (I recommend Mixed Media so you can use water on it without buying specific pricey water color paper. Usual sketching doesn‘t hand water well.)
Stillman & Birn seem to be good too like the other anon said.
Tombow markers: I was curios hand have one or two too. They‘re not worth it. They‘re a bit of a hype product for handlettering because they have this big, bendable brush tip. But their ink isn‘t something special. It‘s a bit like Copics and Manga art. They are both good quality but you don‘t need them to make good art, let alone for doodling.

>>733431I post on Twitter (primarily) and Instagram (when I remember, which is rarely). I hear that tumblr is back to being a pretty decent platform again, and a lot of people suggest tiktok (though, I believe tiktok is easier to build a following and a “brand” when you show your face and can be recognizable since most people just surf their for you page).
I can barely remember to post on Instagram so thinking about branching off to a bunch of different websites seems unmanageable to me. But I have decent success on Twitter so far, and about 10k followers on Instagram which isn’t bad considering how rarely I post there.
I do decent with selling prints, commissions, and patreon. Not living like alythuh, but it pays the bills in the pandemic. Almost all of the revenue comes from Twitter, so I would suggest at least branching off to that platform. It’s not so bad if you keep out of discourse, and just basically keep your mouth shut. Good luck anon! Your art sounds good!
No. 733824
>>733553I'm gonna play devil's advocate here, I don't think this is really a threath, more like a tought experiment.
Basically "Oh you say it's just a drawing, but
if (hipothetically) it was your mom or sibling would you still say it's just a drawing?"
If she were quote retweeting someone it would come of as a threath (or at least it would be way passing the mark), but if she is just speaking generally then I think I can reasonably believe this is just for the sake of arguing. Obviously her having that "I must permanently act as an agressive oh so cool and cold sassy bossgirl at all times" schtick that half of her gang has just makes her sound bitchy and not very agreeable.
I don't actually know the exact context, so if this was actually targeted at someone then I can see this being in very poor taste and no good.
I do know this is related with shipping tho, and I'm not defending that angle. I assume she's comparing fictional drawn characters to real people and that part is actualy dumb

No. 734001
>>733832Seconding this, the portfolio still has that "immediately post-college, hasn't rubbed the shine off yet, hasn't gotten much work yet that is worth showing" vibe. Celeb portraits are a normal part of editorial work, but they're not there because "I like this person's face" they're there to show the artist can bring in the nuance for resemblance and also bring something appealing in the style that you can't get with a photo. It's ok to have a portfolio with different styles if they are all relevant to work you're good at and that people will hire for, but this isn't a portfolio that looks like that - there's a lot of stuff in there dragging it down and a lot of it looks like school projects. It's not organized well, and it looks like it's not a well-rounded, multi-skilled artist as much as it is an artist who hasn't yet figured out what they're good at or what niches they want to work in.
On twitter it's really hard to tell which of us "illustrators" are actually making a living and which are subsiding on parent's money or a job in a totally different industry, but this person doesn't come off like the sort that's making it on their own yet - if they are they haven't updated their portfolio. Established names can get away with forgetting to do that but while breaking in and establishing a relationship with clients the website should be up-to-date and full of only the strongest work. It's normal and healthy to fake it till you make it, but if this person is parading themselves around as someone who is getting SO MUCH PRO WORK and SUCH A REPRESENTATION OF WHAT THE INDUSTRY IS then they're even worse than they look. It's ok to take some time to figure it out especially if you're breaking in and to pretend you're doing better than you are, but the kids who just take animu commissions are going to start thinking this shit is what successful looks like.

>>734154Honestly, the only cases I've seen where an artist is megaproductive the way you describe are artists who either:
1. Seem to be able to draw moderately fast (such as revolocities)
2. Most likely have a team that works for them (sakimichan)
3. Are young or not in college
Having a simpler artstyle may also help? But either way, it's not a good idea to put yourself through that work schedule. It's unhealthy as hell. It's better to take longer to put out artworks than to constantly suffer with exhaustion and hand cramps/possible carpal tunnel.

Mangakas subject themselves to nonstop hell and there are still mangaka who hand draw and hand g pen everything. Even with a team they are still working round the clock editing drawing etc. Comic artists it depends honestly.

Also sorry if I sound like a scrote but this woman being conventionally attractive probably helped her a little bit, too.
That said, her advice here isn't bad, although I would expand on it by saying that you should have different portfolios for different purposes, that way you can have several different styles you can specialize in while also appearing "cohesive."

My Writing might be bad also. (Yes newfag, if i ever feel to vent again let me know what to improve) i warned you, doesn't make it better but yeah.
Twitter is total trash, but i love it sadly. (very general i know, just post and run. that's the best for not going insane)
I hate the fucking hate under Miles-Df's posts, it annoys me. I hate how twitter just calls everyone a pedo (if it's researched and stuff i don't mind). Do they think they get extra life points for being a broken cassette all the time? Let people make their money for fuck sake.
One person was literally like: oh yeah miles blocked me. like wtf? are you proud of harrassing artists??? Want a golden Badge now??
another thing on artists:
adoptables… oh you know. all the drama that goes with it.
theres that one artist, who still after all this years of being on the internet can't write english well. and i hate her so much. she does well money wise drawing this orca nsfw things. but girl can't write english for fucks sake. i kind of like smh, expecially when she posts on other artists threads and does just the wierdest writing errors. Sorry nitpicky, but what can i do, just letting it all out.
Same goes for stupid comments about slugbox. that dudes just tries to get by and pay bills. people don't give shit about nsfw artists anyway, they kind of have to do double the work to get seen and not be reliable of stupid fanart shit.
Fucking e-beggars. No, don't mean artists or emergency commissions with this. I mean these regular normal people, clogging up their home then asking for trandom peoples money to pay their shit to clean up wtf?? lying people, wierd stupid ones like james saroka in other forms. i fucking hate them. i hate that that shit comes up to my feed and twitter eats the tweets of people i actually follow! You know you just wanna check up on your art buddies and then bam full feed of politics stuid shit and e-beggar assholes. Apparently they also life behind the sun, cuz they don't understand that there's still a fucking pandemic and people better pay their shit then spend their money on those loosers.
Some artists crying about how shitty instagram is. kind of giving instagram the fault that they don't succeed. Just delete your account. use other sites regulary. stop the fucking whining. take your business elsewhere. easy. just try at least to be a proper artist.
Artists with small following acting like they can gatekeep their art just for patreons. treat the people that they get support from like shit. ungrateful for monetary support. then whine about everything that they can't get commissions and stuff. being ungrateful shitterz.
and my fav:
artshares
nonstop artshare posts. doesn't do shit for you. big artists whine about that their numbers don't give them money. still they destroyed the whole artshares and other movements since they still steal all the clout from the small arists. whatever they preach, the shit doesn't work out. also these wierd peeps will unfollow you anyway. stop fucking clogging your pages with this artshare shit. like sorry i wish it would work for them, but use the important time for something else please. twitter is broken. and then the honeys get upset about this i'm like sorry hun. you could just do so much better if ya would do something else.
meanwhile furries shout out who is a bad apple (fursuit makers). people still support bad apple after all, like just nothing happened. people still upset. guess you just can be an asshole without any morals huh?
oh and baylee jae drives me nuts. don't get me started on that bitch. and the only reason i get so fed up with this shit is that the pandemic just gives us so much extra time. and sometimes it's just like drama time, watching yt drama, onision drama.. you know the drill. but you know, when you just want to scroll trough twitter quick and it's just full with politics shitposts and other wierd stuff. it's a downer.
as an artist you can't really speak out of your heart what you feel. not even on your own page. people will hate you, use things against you. best is to just stay shut. twitter isn't a good site for art and i know that. but i ain't got time and love enough to go back to sites like dA and deal with the creeps daily, no thank you. The internet has many fucked up things, best is to limit the input of the stupid shit.

Check out Angela Sung and Patrick O'Keefe for an idea of what it looks like in the hands of someone who actually works that way normally - it's gotten popular in animation visdev because people want to do work that looks like what's in the portfolios of their peers and idols.
Very few people in animation are going to be as good traditionally as digitally, and that's normal. It doesn't make someone less of an artist to have specialized in the kind of work they do every day to the point where they're better at it than stuff they don't do. I'd expect she's hot garbage at 3d modeling and realistic people, too, because just like traditional painting - those aren't her fucking job.

>>734574same. Even though I myself am more interested in Hazbin Hotel over Helluva Boss, it's actually nice seeing adult media that isn't just a family guy or the simpsons knock off.
It's nice seeing adult animation, even if it is edgy, have its own style and flare. It's edgy but it's 12 year old inner emo edgy that still as an aesthetic to it rather than family guy edgy where it's a gross edgy that's there just for the sake of shock value.

The unexpected-
Sciatica after a nasty week of overworking for a deadline. A pinched nerve underneath my shoulder blade from holding up my right arm which causes a river of radiating pain from that point all the way over the top of my head to my eye ball.

>>734677Vaporwave can be alright.
What I meant was people that use that pattern with no alterations (ie they basically just draw their characters and then slap that pattern behind them so they can pass it as aesthetic with the minimum effort)
The artist you showed doesn't just do a white grid over one flat colour so the grid actually looks more incorporated in the composition (hopefully I'm not phrasing it retardedly).

>>735508Hair at least has a
valid excuse because maybe the hair you want to draw is nothing like your natural hair- or it's some crazy hairstyle that's hard to find proper refs for. Hair is highly customizeable which can make things slightly harder.
But hands? Most hands look generally the same. It's much easier to look at your own hand for ref than to get a specific selfie of your own hair which sometimes don't even match the reference you need.

I’m not looking to shit on them, it’s just my genuine nightmare this would happen.
I’m 28 and am just barely making enough on commissions to survive and was really hoping to start making passive income from patreon eventually, but the thought of losing followers and becoming irrelevant would toss everything I would have worked for by that point.
No. 735836
>>735701Oh definitely. I used to romanticize the freelance life a lot because I was watching instagram stories from artists who weren't even that skilled but seemed to have so much free time and they'd just draw for a few hours every day, film some patreon stuff and be on social media. But then I realized that most of them were heavily relying on financial support from their family or spouse or they weren't doing that well after all. Of course some do, but it's not as common as I used to think.
The internet has made it easier for anyone to become a full-time artist/freelancer, but at the same time the massive amount of competition has made it much harder at the same time, especially in the above average but not super good skill range.
It's different when you are actually employed to work for a company but you would need actual skill for that and put in lots of work to get there. The kids who complain about art not being taken seriously as a career path don't want to study and practice, they want to be internet famous and draw busts of anime girls in 3/4 view every day.

>>733739It's not bad. I know people are weird about it, but it's one of the better "casual" options. (Considering the talent that's come from NG, I say that lightly. I mean "casual" compared to Artstation.) The rating system actually helps keep out the worst shit by crowd curation.
Depending on the kind of work you make, I think it's a good middle ground for casuals who want to share their work and for serious creators looking for an audience. I like it because they have both robust interactive media and illustration support, both of which I make. It's also a community that doesn't put stock on spammy fast art like what people post to Twitter and IG just to keep up. You have a crowd that's already accustomed to enjoying projects that take more time to create.
The only "downside" is that it's a kind of scrotey site that has the mindset from the 00s art scene. This is still the community that gave birth to Shadman and Zone. But I think that some aspects of that might be a boon since most of the visitors there are for the art, not to witch-hunt.

Sage because old milk. Really hate this humble bragging ‘I’m a child prodigy’ shit. Also super surprised that I can’t find a single person on here or anywhere who even remotely criticises this artist. Nah just a constant hug box she’s in. Clearly a very privileged person with a massive horse shoe shoved up their ass and equates all of her success to ‘hard work and determination’. Needs to be taken down a peg tbh.
She got a $60k scholar ship to fucking SVA then dropped out after studying for 1 year at the animation equivalent of an Ivy League college. Got massively popular off of fan art and ‘pretty art style’ which is totally not clip studio brushes pulling their weight and knowing what ‘flow’ is on a brush. From what I remember she bitched and complained the entire time she was at university, specifically about video editing classes in a school for visual arts and having ‘too much work to do’. What did you expect from a school that is on par with Ringling?
I don’t know what’s so infuriating about her, she has this something about her that a lot of webcomic artists have that just piss me off, I can’t quite put my finger on it. It could be the ‘all I done is hard work to get success’ when she is in fact really privileged. Or that she humble bragged about being a self proclaimed child prodigy while also complaining how her ‘talent is a curse’. That’s a new one for sure. Either way she gets on my nerves.

The ‘I’m not like the other girls’ but are the most basic person you can get. At least they’re entertaining in that weird narcissistic way.
This is narcissism though, plain and simple. Constantly wanting attention, having tantrums when she doesn’t get it.

They don't even bother changing the composition in the slightest. 99% of the work is done by the photographer already. The bare fucking minimum they can do is credit them.
Another thing I hate is when IG aesthetic artists just drop a photo and Gaussian blur the fuck out of it and put "credit to Pinterest!!", and in the same breath attack others for having a similar generic cartoony art style. It's like credit only applies when they benefit from it specifically.

>>738086Yeah this is pisses me off quite a bit. Especially because those same artists are getting shit tons of money off of their patreon fags and will send their army to any smaller artist that dares to have the same pose or similar composition as them. They’re not stealing from them they’re using the same easy to find reference they used, fucking autists.
Photo reference from Pinterest is fine, breaking down professional art work and photographs with good composition is also a fantastic way to learn. Anything that comes out of Ethan Becker’s mouth is pure gold tbh.
I get WHY people don’t credit these resources though. Because they’ll probably get shafted for it and they’re scared of the potential repercussions. They’ll deny it to the end because in the past if they didn’t or weren’t careful more popular or older artists would rip them to shreds and for some people this is their only income.
Sounds conspiracy theoryist but I feel like this is how popular artists keep their potential competition in check. They demonise perfectly good advice and if anyone uses those methods then they send their army after them and bye bye artist. I’ve seen it happen so much. Happened to me. It’s really gross

not really lolcow post, but does anyone know what's going on with Juby? she has some sort of disability that is vaguely described. She claim that it's her main reason why her comic has not made any progress, and is permanently stuck in the introduction for over 10 years now.

If it’s just her struggling though and voicing that to her audience then although it’s unprofessional it’s not bad or anything.
I feel kinda bad for her actually, if what’s she’s saying is the truth. I’m disabled as well with severe chronic pain and it’s incredibly frustrating and it takes years to adjust to it, the guilt that comes with it is massive. In that case I feel quite a lot of sympathy.

>>739225Dodgy. You hardly turn a profit unless you're a large artist who makes fan art, because the POD site is eating up all the revenue as a middleman making the merchandise for you. And even at that, you're likely to get your designs lifted and have them sold on another user's site. There aren't really any protections for that that are effective. Quality control is another factor. Unless you're purchasing your own item to see how it turns out you'll never really know how a customer will receive the product with your art on it from order to order.
Just going off my own experience. It's easy enough to set a shop like that up just don't expect to be making a ton of money. Or even substantial side money unless you can really drive sales.
No. 739293
>>739225I think the best thing to do if you want to sell your own stuff is build up an existing audience first, a customer base who would be interested in your products. In the meantime save up money bit by bit and invest in a good printer and a good sticker cutting machine, good pin maker etc. They don’t need to be high end (although a high end printer like a Epson P800 is a really good investment and makes your prints so high quality that they stand out) when I say good though I mean good quality and will last several years. Sites like redbubble or society6 will make you barely anything unless you’re a ridiculously popular fan art but even fan art can die out. I knew a ton of people who got a lot of money for Steven universe merch that they made and now make barely anything because the show ended. I’d suggest using a site like Etsy to sell your stuff and then once you pick up steam make your own website. This is because websites look much more professional but also because paying for the domain and digital certificate costs you less money than Etsy’s selling fees.
I don’t want to clog up this whole thread but this is my very summarised advice for you. If you can’t work or can only work remotely and don’t earn a lot then try getting freelance work if you can’t work demanding jobs like retail. If you want to know how to get comms then Dan Ekis on YouTube has some pretty solid advice. His advice in a nutshell is basically ‘don’t put commission sheets on social media and wait for work rather chase work and have a clear and concise portfolio to present to potential clients.

>>737967>>737958 In Ethan Becker’s video taking down Janet (although it’s kinda old milk) Janet talks about going to art centre which is not a cheap place. Her parents (in her words) wanted her to go to ‘prestigious art school’ so we can assume she’s wealthy and privileged. She ended up getting almost a full ride as well to Art Center and pissed away her cushy job at Disney.
A lot of artists who are successful and popular are that way because they are privileged, you’re right to say they didn’t get there through hard work and determination alone. They had a support network, family that cares about them and supports and loves them unconditionally which as a surprise to many people impacts how well you do in life a shit ton.
Velinxi is the same here. She’s a girl who has had by the looks of things everything handed to her, she didn’t have to do as much work as everyone else, she was a ‘natural’. Then threw a tantrum because she was probably plateauing or regressing because she wasn’t putting as much work in as everyone else because she never had to in the past. She got complacent and then moaned that life was getting difficult. Boo fucking hoo welcome to the club.
She probably had supportive parents, nice home life. She got the highest scholarship SVA offers and then probably threw a tantrum when she was expected to do something that she didn’t want to do. Got overwhelmed with workload because she didn’t do her research. But despite all of that and dropping out she’s still massively successful because of her support network.
She didn’t get successful because of hard work but because she had all of the time in the world to work on her comic and merch etc. She probably had people who would invest in her small business. Her parents probably bought her the cintiq she uses. I wouldn’t be surprised if she lived rent free with them. She probably didn’t come from poverty or had work 3 jobs to survive while being buried under medical debt, same as Janet. They have the freedom to piss away opportunities and just dip out of shit that slightly inconveniences them. This makes them very unlikeable people because they’re constantly sitting on their high horse and think they’re better than everyone else because ‘well as could do it, I just worked harder’.

>>739437Reading about these types of people reminded me of Katnipp Illustrations. She seems like the exact type of person that has had a ton of privilege and things handed to her in life. Like she has a store front and a successful online business despite only selling frankly mediocre at best lazy cutesy garbage. She even employs her sister and her fiancees brother. I hardly ever see her really pushing to sell her stuff either she just puts it out there and people supposedly eat it up. Just seems highly sus to me

>>739225Honestly I'm starting to wonder if selling prints is worth it at all unless you have a huge following or are part of a big fandom.
It seems like everyone with 1k+ followers opens up an etsy shop or print shop nowadays. I have a decently big following and am very interactive with other artists, some big some small and none of them sell a lot of prints unless they belong to one of the aforementioned categories.
If you choose a POD service, you don't invest much time or cost but you also get very little profit in return. If you do everything yourself with printing and shipping and handling the orders you'll make a good profit, but is it even worth it for a few $15 prints a month?

Looking how much effort is put into variety of design, prodution and presentation quality I wouldn't say it's suspicious at all that she is successful, this is exactly the kind of stuff that always becomes popular, being super unique is not.

>>739909It’s just that when you’re raised somewhat religious it’s a bit awkward to wear your religion as an accessory, but because It’s normal, there’s no reason why to get mad at people for doing what they like or adding stuff they consider aesthetic and cool.
I honestly just used to think it was awkward at first but if a character I like has a bunch of crosses everywhere I won’t mind, I also won’t mind if an evil character that’s obviously an evil pope, is evil, because catholic religion lost its meaning in media a long time ago, It’s basically an aesthetic or a spice to add to a story.

>>739883Crosses predate and exist outside of Christianity, so getting riled up about it would be ridiculous. It's a bit weird when they depict the crucifix purely because I don't understand why you'd depict a deity you don't believe in, but the cross is pretty basic.
Plus the crosses used aren't revered because they're crosses, but because they stand for something. I was raised Irish Roman Catholic and went to a church that was built years ago and it had the T cross rather than the regular cross in the stonework because that's how they represented the crucifixion. I've been in churches that have the upside down cross to represent humility.
It did used to be quite divisive in Ireland since a regular cross meant you were a protestant and a crucifix meant you were Catholic but not with the newer generations.

Anyone who draws original characters knows that people who comment and like/save art of them usually don't care about their actual backstory initially. It's physical design, style, and portrayal/personality that attracts people to characters, especially younger people. But that initial interest is what gets people interested in your characters deeper. So picrel doesn't make any sense for her to say unless she's just trying to drum up pity pats and attention (which she is).

I can’t go anywhere in an art space without someone gushing about really basic artists like LanaJay or Loish. Loish is just immensely popular and I don’t see the appeal yet I can’t find even a single criticism against her. She draws the same 5 ‘pretty’ girls over and over again with very similar faces and body types but tricks people with a pretty painterly style and colour theory. And yet she earns more than any artist I’ve ever known of. Same as people like Yuumei who is admittedly a LOT more lolcow worthy than Loish.
If you have an animation or concept art degree or work in industry then you’ll see pretty quickly their stuff is barely industry standard and they wouldn’t stand out at all at a networking event. All of their stuff just has no imagination to it and they would struggle hard in a studio environment.

>>740438Honestly some of loish's older work from her deviantart times was actually pretty great and unique.
I think one of the reasons that her work looks so common now is that 50% of the pretty girl basic insta artists are copying her nowadays, but when she started out the style was still unique and recognizeable.
That and I watched an interview with her and she talked about how with instagram now being her new big platform people expect her to do the same flower girl portraits all the time, whereas ten years ago when dA was still big people would be put off by you constantly churning out the same stuff and there was more incentive to be creative and experimental.
Yeah she's kinda overrated if you just measure her skill but she had been at this whole internet art thing for probably 20 years now and was one of the first big internet artists, if she started today she would never become this big. And compared to many other big instagram artists that fill a similar niche like itslopez, erikathegoober, sarafaber and so on she's definitely more skilled and original.

>>740313So… this chick sexualizes her characters but gets mad when other people sexualize them? What’s the point of shading a massive dong if you don’t want anyone to notice or comment on it? If these characters are so deeply personal and she wants them to be taken more seriously then she should think about how she presents them. Anything you do to your characters is an invitation for the audience to do the same.
>>740204I know the fiction vs reality debate has been done to death on these threads but no matter what side you’re on, fictional characters don’t have the ability to feel objectified. They’re pretty much conceptual objects. I could understand if a character is similar to you and you get upset at how they’re treated because of those similarities, but the characters themselves have no real emotions. This should be fucking obvious.

The vast majority of freelancers get hired for other people's project so yeah, you have to work for someone else's vision. And you don't get the stable income an industry job would provide. Or if you are a convention artist you obviously have to pander to fandoms and draw what sells well.
To me it feels like those social media artists who can truly draw whatever they want all the time are almost like lifestyle influencers? They romanticize the freelance lifestyle and do studio vlogs and "pack my etsy orders with me <3" tik toks and build up their brand that way.

>>741780Essentially, Crypto Art is kind of like a certificate of authenticity for digital artist. Similar to how Bitcoin uses blockchain technology to authenticate digital currency, Crypto-Art uses blockchain technology to authenticate digital art.
So lets say if Loish created a commission piece for someone and wanted to make sure that only that individual would have the rights of ownership, she would use blockchain to brand that commission piece with a digital certificate of authenticity. So even if a bunch of people on the internet just copy/pasted that commission piece all over the internet, the original owner would still be the person who would have the true certifiable original work in their possession.
By comparison, there is only one true Mona Lisa in the world but there are tons of prints and copies one could buy of it on the internet for real cheap. Despite that, the original certified Mona Lisa will still sell for hundreds of millions easily because it is and will always remain the one and only certified original work.
This basically opens up the digital art space to the collector market that traditional art has profited off of for centuries.

>Another problem is that this system doesn't really guarantee authenticity, since nothing is stopping me from just stealing artworks from deviantart and claiming them as mine. Which in turn erodes the buyers trust. (This is already happening with artbreeder images)Except that isn't true. This is where blockchain comes in. The same reason you can't create counterfeit bitcoin, you can't claim a copy of crypto-art as your own. If someone wants to check if the piece you own is the original, they simply have to check the blockchain attributed to that piece of art. The blockchain technology attached to the work is what guarantees authenticity. Artbreeder doesn't utilize blockchain technology for the work on their site which is why it's such a problem.
For common plebs who just want a pretty picture on their mug or whatever, none of this matters. This crypto-art stuff is for the same people who collect and idolize works by such artist as Andy Warhol or Jackson Pollock.

Because if I had to bake something for an entitled customer like that I'd slip something nasty in it, and I think we as a society should too. When another individual artist, or even another entire culture or foreign country creates something nice and desirable, they should be looked up to and taken notes and inspiration from, not envied and hated while wanting to take away their own representation out of the things they created.

ok so rant incoming. sry for my writing.
i do not have ill intent against any fanart artist do, but some thing should be basic knowlegde for artists but i guess some think they are some special shit.
What happened:
Furry artist A: drew monster hunter fanart, did put said fanart on their shop to profit and sell.
Etsy enters the chat:
Random etsy seller XY: also has monster hunter items in their shop. you know how it is, etsy is full of this, wether it's anime, shows, cartoons, games.
it's not new rocket science.
also, said mh fanart can be drawn unique yes, but it it what it is.
said monster or pet has a certain look, and will always look that way. especially when they draw it canoncally right, based on screenshots and shit.
Artist A thinks their hot shit and makes a callout post on twitter about said etsy reseller. etsy reseller tells them to fuck off. etsy seller sends dmca towards artist a. back and forth.
honestly, stupid fucks. you down own this shit. to me this just looks fucking unprofessional and i have no symphaty towards any of those.
drawing and posting fanart is ok, when it comes from interest for the thing etc. heck even only for clout. but only making it to sell and profit of it, and acting like they own any of that shit looks so fucking dumb. and i don't know why they make such a big deal about it and even get comments for that shit.
what does that little shit think she is? if anything the respectful artists from capcom own any of the designs. both should be taken down. but if she wants to go that route 90% of etsy would have to get taken down. like wtf.
fucking twitter furries.

>>743382It's impossible to know that unless you saw their process, you can simply look at a drawing and copy the shape and composition. They are both extreme shitty things to do, but they are different.
>>743403The proportions are different, just use the multiply in photoshop and try to line them up. Nobody is denying she copied, she just didn't blatantly trace. Tracing someone's work isn't worse or better than copying tho, both are low effort and equally bad.

>>743807 I think it's already been discussed enough that there's a difference between tracing to learn, and tracing, then posting the result and giving no credit whatsoever of the original piece.
I personally find tracing quite helpful when there are things I want to imitate but can't quite get right, because my hand doesn't know what it's doing. But those kinds of drawings never leave my notebook.
No. 743838
>>743807Yeah I know how to draw and chances are I'm better than you
When you use a reference there's a certain degree of interpretation made by the artist, here there is none. This isn't referencing.
If you can't even notice the same shapes on the nose and eyes of the wolf I don't know what to tell you, stop drawing and give carpentry a go

>>743841>>743239>>743846Drew this without tracing, just referencing. Colored a sketch with clip's coloring AI and then edited a little because I didn't want to spend too long on it. Purposely made it look closer to loputyn's art than the pin. Anyone can copy a drawing without tracing.
While these drawings clearly have similar compositions (especially with Haku's open mouth) and some of the outline is very similar, it's also very possible to draw this without tracing.
Out of all the changes she made, the way she moved Haku's eyes down and shortened his bottom jaw looks awful. I don't know why anyone would purposefully mess that up while tracing. If she traced you'd at least think she'd get the proportions right.

if you type that in twitter it should pop up
i mean fine if people wanna get some money.
but don't fucking take it to the public making callout twitter posts. both basicly to the same thing, just different art skills.
i guess normally they should be lucky that capcom didn't catch them someday and just jank that shit. like nintendo does on nsfw fanart for example.
do others feel like this too? as an artists i just think it's wrong. doing shady shit and then coming forward like this. just post it be happy, don't profit so wierdly. and don't shit on others who do the same shady shit??
like… am i wrong? i hate them for that. now they both are on blast for the public eye and everyone sees how they have dmca claims going on. and i bet both of them don't have a fucking lawyer.

>>744762LMAO, yikes. I do think the whole "skip art school" shtick a lot of youtubers do makes sense for the US where the cost-benefit ratio is insane but … lots of art schools teach you plenty of useful things and IME the majority of working artists went to art school.
The people in charge of lightbox are probabably aware that successfull arttuber =/= good artist and I supppose he got invited for his clout mostly but then art industry events do often have that dudebro culture of "let's have pretty girls everywhere" where men try to compensate for not getting laid as teens so his subject matter probably also helped.
No. 744848
>>744349Different anon, but ignoring the legalities of selling fanart for a moment, I'd say it's still fair to call out someone for ripping off and reselling someone else's art (fanart or not). I don't know about the other IPs but the vigorwasp and Meowscular Chef pins look uncannily close to the original artworks, and "it's fanart so it doesn't count" isn't really an argument for ripping off someone's work.
I also can't find anything about Ferwildir selling their MonHun fanart like the other person is, so unless I missed it then I'm not sure why you're so mad about them doing a callout.

>>744924I just skimmed through the video because tldw. A lot of it does look decent, but I feel like a lot of people aren’t understanding the big elephant in the room or maybe they are just willingly ignoring his lack of diversity in his own art. Not talking about racial diversity but he consistently draws the
same damn woman every time and it’s sad. I get that he’s trying to improve his fundamentals and he really is because I know anatomy is incredibly hard but compared to other artists, especially female ones, his art reminds me of looking inside of a dark smelly sweaty cave. Other artists with moderate skill at least manage to bring some life, color, dynamism to their female subjects, but the women he draws reflects his hollow taste or male gaze such as pic provided
He just needs to scope out better references and stop limiting his visual library to Pinterest and animu thotties, hell I would be content if he started falling for the macho meme I see a lot of male artists falling for and just drawing muscular heroic guys to mix it up

>>744960For the past month she's been nonstop complaining on twitter that she has bipolar and for some reason this requires a service dog and other people should pay for it.
It's funny because for the past 6 years or so she's never said a word about being bipolar and suddenly now she has it.
Same deal with her being "disabled". She never said a word about it before this past year and suddenly had all these new pictures of her in a wheelchair when she'd been posting completely able selfies for years prior.
I'm starting to think she's just a hypochondriac.
No. 744975
>>744929I mean tbf service dogs are really expensive, and I don't know if this is also her case, but a blind man that went to my class to tell us about blind people said often people will request for a new dog while they still have the other one cuz it takes a long time to train the new one. Maybe she's already accounting for having to request for another dog in the future? (Tbh most artists I've seen just have very crappy money responsability lol but I'm still giving her the benefit of the doubt).
Also, I remember said blind man said guide dogs are at least 6000 euro, so it's not a surprise multitask service dogs in the US must be way way more expensive.
Bottom line: I've seen an artist before ask people to go donate to her because she wanted to buy make up. Asking money so you can get a service dog is at least understandable I guess.
>>744960Eh probably just convenience. She says that she faints suddenly and has mental attacks, wich if it's true then maybe it's also her being afraid of having health problems when she's by herself.
Artist e-begging culture is weird to me, but if it's true I can't be angry at her when I've seen much worse.
>>744968Maybe she was triying not to vent too much on twitter or something about privacy? Or maybe she had it but it's gotten worse? I dunno, but if she's liying that's really scummy. I really hate people that lie about disabilities. Hopefully it's not the case.

valid while a creative take with lore and effort is
problematic. Fuck it.
I even remember the dev worked as a nurse of something so she claimed she knew her shit, but don't quote me on that it's been years No. 745196
>>743971Imo, coulda been way less cringy if they at least tried making them actual characters. Like, could do some sort of Katawa Shoujo setting but for mental health, give them characters actual names so they don't immedeatly feel completely as a cardboard cutouts, preferably have some actual story/plot/setting concepts ready before announcing stuff and boom. At least a tiny bit less cringy.
I'm also not really sure why they tought it would be a good idea to announce something they want to be a youtube series on twitter and yet have literally 0 videos on their actual youtube channel. What's the idea with that? You can't just publicly announce a thing literally as soon as you're done with the character designs (and not even all of them). That's a yansim situation waiting to happen. Couldn't they at least have some short comics on the ready to show what vibe they were going for?
But either way, twitter people have nothing but absolute vitriol to this concept so I really think this is gonna get cancelled pretty soon.
>>745064It's just really really cringy, and the characters look really really generic wich makes it even cringier.
Ngl humanising mental ilnesses just to make them that generic makes it kinda tone deaf.
Making them only humanisations of illnesses and not characters with even names makes it sound like (I saw someone make this comparison) Jreg but with mental illnesses, wich again sounds really cringy.
No. 745214
>>744975You know, if she has health issues that make her faint suddenly I don't think that a service dog is going to help her in any way. Maybe she should look into proper medication and therapy instead of relying on a fancy dog that other people are going to pay. Service dogs are useful for guiding the blind, going in rooms before someone who has severe ptsd (like soldiers, rape, torture and domestic abuse
victims, disaster survivors) or for people who regularly suffer from seizures or heart attacks. They're not mere conveniences for bd, hypocondriacs or anxiety, especially because they're fucking expensive.
I hope she's not one of those people that will just e-beg, buy a regular "emotional support" dog, call it a service dog and keep all the money for other shit.
