Baylee's been saying for ages she wishes her desk was white ever since she got obsessed with pastel. If she could fit it in that tiny apartment, I'm sure it would fit in a room upstairs. Just looking for an excuse to spend more money on stuff she doesn't really need.

All I'm saying is, most sensible people would have heard the water under the floor boards and moved everything (at least off the ground) immediately to be safer than sorrier.

>>761538The thing that annoys me most is how she just misunderstands why watercolor artists say not to use opaque white and instead use the white of the paper and just blames it on “artists being elitist”.
Objectively (maybe 90% or the time), using the white of the paper will aesthically look better than applying a blanket of white over whatever you’ve painted. One of the first things you learn when you start painting is there’s barely ever any COMPLETELY white areas in real life, so using it in paintings will look awkward. That’s why adding blocks of stark white can really screw you over.Not to mention, you can’t paint over white gouache with watercolor if you needed to.
I also think she just misunderstands that you CAN use white to add small details back.
I get she’s a “cartoonist” but ffs just learn some basic art knowledge and apply it to your cartoons.

I never got into a huge argument with any of the kids over stylistic choice but in general the ones who were less likely to follow the rules I gave them were just more stubborn.
I think it just boils down to the person being too stubborn/against change. Baylee’s just too stuck in her ways and too lazy to change them. You have to be stubborn enough to just say NO to suggestions for improvement and have a good amount of narcissism to think your work doesn’t need it.
That’s why most of the “muh style” shit is from kids/teens, most of us grow out of stubbornness, but I think also with Baylee it’s just laziness and satisfaction with the fact she’s gained popularity with her current level of skill.

>>766786Honestly I don't have a problem with her art room. I don't dig the pastel aesthetic in general but if she likes it, hey, good for her. I don't think there's a problem with covering your wall in prints especially of artists that inspire you. I think those two things are what make you think of a pre-teen. But to me it just seems like an artist's room to me.
And I don't follow her vlogs too closely but if I remember correctly at one point (maybe it was in a previous house. it very well could have been an older video) she referred to a room off of the living room with her large tablet and computer as her "office" while the room she recorded videos in was her "art room". Again I can't be certain if this is her current set up (especially since her tablet seems to be in art room now) but perhaps she has two separate rooms that she works in and needed two separate names. Also I find the complaint about her room name to be incredibly nitpicky. It's a room that she does art in what's the problem in calling it an art room. It's hardly milk.

I’m pretty sure you can also compare the shoes to how she draws shoes normally and see how different they look (usually flat and simple, here they are detailed and dynamic) granted she’s definitely using a reference here, even then it would be hard to achieve the differentiating line weight necessary to decently draw those shoes with her skill level.
It’s possible she’s either been practicing drawing shoes or had a breakthrough with it, but judging on her recent still-lives I doubt it.

As for the bottle and glasses I honestly like the idea, reminds me of the tipsyness you get from having too much wine, the execution isn't great but not too bad either.

You're both right though, Baylee is no longer the "Copic queen". She's no good at them, and I feel like copics have died down in popularity, mostly due to the fact that there's just so many more affordable options for alcohol markers on the market now. Theyre going the way of Wacom. A lot of artists are on watercolor or gouache now, or if they're digital, they're on their iPad and using procreate or whatever.

>>773842Of course her followers are blinded by their weird obsession with her and refuse to see it. I understand that it's common for multiple people to have similar art styles, but those saying that it's just a coincidence don't seem to understand context. If this was at all like her normal way of drawing, I could see it might be that she hadn't copied. But these bunny pieces came out of the blue, with similar themes, similar character shapes w/similar faces, similar colour choices, and similar use of a cozy "cluttered" vibe - it's all too much to be coincidence.
Also, people saying it can't be copied because the shading and line weights are different don't realise that Baylee probably wanted her piece to look even more like the bear one, but wasn't capable of making it look as good and that is where the true difference lies.
Again, they will refuse to see this because they think Baylee can do no wrong, but it's often telling that an artist's pieces improve only when they "try something new" out of left field. The same thing happened when after drawing the same way she always does she all of a sudden found that 'prominent ears on the side of the head' style that we think she took from another artist with a smaller audience.

I've been following Kuma chip for a while and she always reposts ppl who have done the same tiny cubicle, cute box styled rooms with small animals like f_nezumi, rishjuly and those are just ones I can think of. I think kumachip is aware that a lot of ppl have been inspired by the miniature rooms, so baylee might have just got that idea maybe? the same watercolor- children's book style but with a cuter twist. you can find some on Kumachips twitter there's just loads of artists doing it.

She mentioned in her last video that it had been awhile since she drew a girl.. From what I remember of the last girl she drew, in my opinion this is slightly better. I do wish she would stop being lazy and actually better her faces and become overall better.

Tbh I kinda think the pink miltiliners might actually work out for her. I actually kinda like this piece and found myself enjoying the progress. No muddy colors and no harsh black lines other than the eyelashes, but that fits with it.
Pastel would be more fitting for her style after all, imo
Hopefully, this'll give her a bigger push to keep making more artwork. She can even use pink lines in digital art if she wanted to, which I'm kinda surprised she hasn't done unless I totally missed it.

Its not to say she can't use oils, but the shade ranges she buys, how many and how much is the questionable part.

>>781576She is incredibly annoying in this video. I mean, nobody is perfect when it comes to saving the environment, but to be so dismissive of the fact that she has a responsibility as a large content creator is so disheartening. I hope all the literal children defending her grow up to learn better.
It's not entirely surprising though, I vaguely remember her in a past lifestream talk about not caring about the environment or how damaging the plastic/polystyrene was from the sheer amount of shit she buys. She's not going to change.

Funny… she’s hearting all the comments defending her. She doesn’t give a shit what her followers think
No. 781673
>>781629Agreed. I found nothing she said in the video or the pinned comment to be surprising. She has always struck me as an incredibly sheltered, self-centered,lazy, gluttonous, greedy person. I get the sense that her parents overcompensated the praise on her when they got divorced. And she's always come off as acting like the stereotype of an only child despite having siblings.
That comment shows how delusional she is about her wastefulness. You just have to look at how much stuff she buys and then never uses, the content of her grocery hauls, and the number of times she validates a cheap shitty purchase because she can "just get another one" to know that she doesn't give a shit about the environment. Patting herself on the back because she recycles some stuff is like being proud of washing your hands after the bathroom - it's the bare minimum.
I find it laughable that she has somehow created this image of being a savior of the animals. When really she just does a longer version of her "job" so that her followers can donate, and then she can bathe in the gratitude and praise when she hands over the cheque.

This comment made me laugh…. so true
Baylee is losing it
No. 781843
I don't know why people are suddenly acting so surprised about how wasteful baylee is.
She hoards art supplies and leaves them to waste away, all. the time. She probably won't be properly disposing of those new oil paints and oil paint materials she just bought.
And she wastes so much material when she makes a million of those shitty buttons and then they don't sell well.
She doesn't know how to reduce her footprint for waste, and she's so far into the decadence of spend spend spend, that she at this point is further on the scale of consumption than she is producing.
She should just be honest with herself and tell people she's only interested in vlogging art supply hauls and showing off her stuff, and not necessarily making art anymore.
Holly

No. 783582
>>783296I think she was trying to show everything comes with excess plastic packaging from fresh fruits to Disney dolls and given how small her business is, the amount of plastic she's putting into the world is pretty negligible. Honestly, I kind of agree with her. I don't agree with how dismissive she was about people's concerns but as a whole society needs to stop framing environmental problems as something individuals or small businesses can solve by going zero waste or using compostable plastic (I guarantee far fewer people compost than recycle so if she's going for plastic, she's better off using the recyclable kind because she's right, if you toss the compostable plastic in the trash, it won't compost in a landfill). And if people can't recycle it where they live, the onus is on them not to buy from Baylee.
Sorry, I'm not trying to white knight, this kind of thing just annoys me because the personal responsibility angle of environmentalism is pushed by the biggest industrial polluters who want to avoid tighter regulations and instead claim it's up to each individual consumer to clean up their messes.
No. 783738
>>783582Yes, thank you. I’m not a fan of Baylee at all, but Jesus Christ people, let’s act like fucking adults here. We all buy plastic, and it’s up to you to recycle. I live in BC too, and she does have a point about the recycling system here: it’s great. But it’s not like people come into our house and take it away, we have to manually separate everything and take it out on certain days. Why the hell are some of you acting like it’s a business’ fault that people don’t/can’t recycle? Are people else where just fucking lazy? I’d see the point if plastic was illegal, but guess what you fucks, it isn’t!
This is some of the pettiest shit I’ve seen on lolcow in a long time, holy fuck.

She prioritizes her Twitch streams over her other streams of revenue, including orders for PAYING CUSTOMERS apparently. Comments are always calling her out for ignoring YT for Twitch streams– and for prioritizing game streams over art streams.
The label maker is fucking up as much as her Cricut because she is unable to work any technology more complicated than an iPad. People like her who do not prioritize learning the technology they are using because "I'll figure it out" or some other excuse.
One commenter pointed out that she should hire an assistant, and several likes on this comment show that her viewers/fans agree. However, I think she should stop doing game streams and focus on her YT channel, online store, and art (lol).
At least Kiki is doing okay. If nothing else, she loves her cats and can afford to care for them properly.

Also - and this could just be my envy talking - whilst I don't expect her to make a huge deal out of it, I find it kinda gross that she can muster the levels of excitement of a maniac over catching a pokemon, but can't say even the slightest thing about completely selling all her product in half an hour. She just talks about it as if it's a definite and shows zero percent gratitude or joy.

I sometimes marvel that a person with such one-dimensional thinking processes was able to build the kind of success that she has. That's not the first time she's talked about buying crappy products so that when they break she can just buy a new one. a)that will cost her more in the long run, and b)it's as if when she was patting herself on the back for doing basic recycling and saying she cares about the environment, she didn't stop and think that she regularly puts out content where her words and actions contradict that idea.

This is honestly gross. I've voiced my concerns with other artists in the YTAC about her and they've been agreeing with me. baylee's art is so far below the majority of the artists that it's becoming embarrassing to have our art showcased along with hers.
in the past three years, we've all improved… except for her. in fact, she has gotten worse and is consistently late, never communicates, and requires frequent clarifications and "hand-holding" to understand anything.

But I completely agree with you that what she did with the art was pretty scummy. She mentioned in the video she didn't do much research about Nut or Egyptian culture, which is silly because Google is easily available. Heck, this would have been a great opportunity to try integrating some aspects of Ancient Egyptian art into the piece and talk about the culture. But why do that when she can complain about stuff that no one cares about lol. Everything just feels really lazy which is a bad reflection on the rest of the group.

The pasties are tacky. Either draw her nude without nipples or give her a dress if nudity is a concern for your young audience. Why nipples (especially in an artistic context) are such a big deal is beyond me, but that's neither here nor there.
All that said, though, think this drawing would be decent were it not for the glaring anatomical errors (and the generic potato nose face). Everything else I touched on is relatively minor, so take it with a grain of salt.

>>798786She seems to have taken 'inspiration' from pic related (the nipple pasties, loincloth and bracers). It's one of the first results when googling "nut egyptian goddess". Just wanted to post this because it seems a bit dishonest (or just lazy) to lift part of the design from another artist without mentioning it (if that's the case, maybe I'm just reaching).
I also don't get why the boobs are symmetrical when one arm is lifted.
No. 799161
>>799135I dont really see much resemblance. Not more than the egyptian pics or probably any other image of Nut anyway. The character is fixed to an idea of a design and apart from that fixed idea I really dont think these look alike
also yea the boobs are just terrible. she talks about taking reference from nudes but she clearly never does this herself… and if she does then shes an even worse artist than i thought
No. 799196
>>799176I mean I wouldnt put it past Layzee to "take too much inspiration" but the stars on the nipple thing isnt the most innovative idea. If you avoid nipples, nipple covers are the go to thing. This is a goddess whose body is covered in stars so star shaped nipple covers. It doesn't take a creative mind to come up with it.
The loincloth isn't too innovative either (hers looks like a napkin btw), especially when you are trying to go for that egyptian look, so are the bracelets.
Baylees design is really the bare minimum of an egyptian inspired drawing.
No. 799281
>>799196>>799176yeah a sarong and star pasties aren't exactly original, especially when the subject is already night sky themed, and a loincloth is pretty universal.
mostly what gets me about this pic aside from the terrible boobs are the horns. why are they coming out of her hair and not her head??

Tbh maybe she’s changed now but I knew her through a friend and ex patron of hers who she stalked because she couldn’t afford to keep pledging. Sakuems hunted her down on stuff like Baylees vlogs and demanded to know why she wasn’t a patron any more.

If she actually tried to study and improve she could be making a lot more off her personal IP but she resorts to making meme art and prioritizing bad YouTube content.
She should get another one of those big thick sketchbook slam books and fill it with anatomy practice and her art thumbnails and try to fill it by the end of the year instead of rushing through it for the month and not learn anything from it.

also I think her family must have money, because she has that attitude of someone who's never had to worry. There's a difference between someone who's earning OK now but knows what it's like to have to budget, and someone who can blithely go 'Oh I almost broke even on this con, that's good', charge $5 for a (admittedly shitty) print and then drop 1000$ on dolls etc. she HAS to be from a well off background.

>>803268You say that but once for MCM London, the entire event was semi sponsored by Marvel (I can't remember which big film was coming out that year) and they had some Marvel officials there. When they went through the dealers' area, they basically started pulling out the good old 'cease and desist' letters for anybody who was making very obvious copies of Marvel art (like you might see unofficial t-shirt vendors who just print official art and such.
Apparently they even gave the cease and desist letters to some artists who were dealing, especially if their style was made to mimic marvel or like it was really obviously a copy. But those who did stylised renditions (like anime or whatever) just about got away with it because its original enough art. Basically the big companies can and will gun you down if they decide one year to throw the hammer down.

>>803268So what if they belong to big ass companies? Those companies pay people for their ideas, they make money by making good decisions on buying character rights. That's just how capitalism works. Now you could argue that Disney or Marvel could take any character these days because they put a name behind it but they have created that name and could lose it if they started to only start giving us shit.
Just because someone has more money doesn't mean we can rob them of it by selling stuff they own.
If they were to just let it slide they eventually wouldnt make money off those characters they own anymore, it would also give the impression that individual people dont have artistic property. So Disney just letting randoms sell their shit is bad for the small artist too when people are selling the small artist's characters

>>807703She lives in the Burnaby area, which is one of the safest and sought after areas of Van. I can’t say for sure how much rent is (BC is in the middle of a huge scandal, where the gov’t basically allowed the Chinese mafia to laundry money through casinos and the housing market) NOW, since rents and housing are becoming cheaper.
However, I’d have to say her rent is somewhere between $3,000-$5,000 a month. Now, if she was smart enough she’d negotiate with her landlord for cheaper rent, since rent prices are dropping everywhere.
Funny thing is that Baylee’s house isn’t nice looking at all, nor does it have a nice view or nice layout. There are literal mansions that can be rented now for less than what she’s paying in her current house. But I highly doubt she even knows what the hell is happening in the province she lives in. I bet she would know more about Disneyland.

I understand her reasoning for dropping the streams but it didn't really need such a serious kind of video. I thought at first she was going to announce a pregnancy or something but nah. Does she make more money off youtube than streams?
She was going on about having to do double the amount of housework cause Christian can't help. Like

It’s one thing for people to talk about how they need to motivate and talk themselves into working out whenever that’s not part of their daily routine- but her life and career is literally built off art. You’re the one choosing to do all these bullshit video ideas Baylee like that stupid diamond painting and challenges.

She knows some of the things she should be doing - it's not just about not doing "enough" drawing, she does the wrong kind of drawing, and she does know that. sketchbook slam was a perfect example of that. drawing 'more' produced no improvement or learning.
she knows how to remedy stiffness, then she goes on about 'oh no my drawings are too stiff' and doesn't change the way she draws carefully from the wrist.
she thinks drawing things is drawing outlines of things, and colouring them in, rather than trying to describe forms.
also she has terrible taste, and if she worked on that by reading and watching better & more varied things, things would improve. she puts no thought into why she draws things. is she telling stories? who for? etc, etc

>>812725Honestly, she would improve if she actually took some irl classes in a group. While the internet is a nice tool for those that don't have the funds to take classes (which she does with how many cameras she buys) having to interact with someone who's over the age of 12 and is skilled in art would force her to see that her methods aren't working. But that's just my two cents, I found I improved way more once I had a proper instructor that I could ask questions and get some direction from.

Honestly she should really be art social with other IRL artists and it’s not like that’s lacking in the area, she knows artists from her AA videos and I’ve seen her in other online artist groups, but she lacks the drive to push herself outside of any comfort zone even though she knows her weaknesses or get any friends who want her to improve.
I just feel bad for her now honestly cuz she does these videos cuz she’s clearly aware of her weaknesses but it also feels like she’s too scared and too lazy to go back to the beginning and learn fundamentals cuz she’s surrounding herself with comfort and junk

>>814834the worst thing about it is the values and the contrast - she recognises it herself towards the end of the video, there are so many very dark blacks in areas in the photo that she just didn't replicate, and there's not enough contrast between light and dark, eg under the brows and nostrils, and in the beard, the whole thing is just grey. And this also changes his expression - her drawing has a completely different expression and a lot of that is in the eyes.
also she didn't think about the light source -if you look at the photo, the brightness on the left side of the turban contrasts with the shadow on the right and this gives depth and highlights.
I don't care about it not being the exact same shapes, etc, etc because photorealism is pointless. but I do care that her drawing is lifeless because she didn't think about light and dark properly, or about emotion.

A lot of her inefficiency comes down to her being an inherently slow person. Also, it's something she can flex about, because saying your spend 40 hOuRs on a project sounds more impressive than saying your finished a project within an hour. That's just my two cents, Baylee reminds me a lot of an old friend who has a similar, self centered mindset and the parallels in their reasoning makes me lol

After as many years she does art now she should have better "eyes" to see her mistakes before finishing a piece

I hope more artists take the prompt he gave and directly call her out for not doing what she said she was going to do. It's really cringy to watch her react to the video, too. She seems very vacant… ~O~ the lights are on, but nobody is home ~O~

>>817320Lemme say this but people have told her nicely tons of times, people who are her own fans have and she never listens. She talks a lot about how she wants to improve and yet year after year nothing changes. People in here just came watch the trashfire that she is as a person, because they find comedy in it. Some people always had beef with baylee and come here to grow their hate boner for her and some are her ex fans tired of her constant bullshit.
When it comes to art skills, lolcow has a tons of different types of people both good and bad. I can only speak for myself here but if you go back in time around 5 years, baylee and I actually used to be on the same skill level and if we go even further back, she actually used to be better than me. The thing is right now she's nowhere near my league and I still got tons to learn myself but unlike baylee, my art actually changes from year to year (and for the better too).
My issues with baylee are just that. She's lazy and makes money by essentially scamming her fans by selling them an "how to draw" book that she even admits is trash and teaches you nothing. But because she's so self-centered she won't even realize how that's taking advance of her young fans. On the top of that she keeps drawing same shit year after year and for someone who's supposedly a professional, you'd expect their work to at least show some effort.

>>817406I started watching her vlogs because they (sometimes) offer interesting behind-the-scenes looks into the processes of making merch and where she gets her supplies and whatnot, I didn't know anything about her main channel at the time.
After attempting to watch videos from main channel, they just feel very uninspired and amateur. Other than her art style and technique not appealing to me, they just feel like they lack any real passion or thought.
She barely uploads any videos on the main channel as it is, and she cut down her stream schedules, so I dunno what she's doing with her time anymore. You'd think cutting down all the streaming would mean she has more time to plan out interesting content, but alas.

My problem with Baylee's art is first off, it's just not good but secondly it isn't art, it's more illustrative in that it belongs inside a children's picture book, I like my art to tell me something and make me think, the quality you find in an actual gallery. Baylee's art will never feature in such. I'm going to compare two of her pieces.
The one on left is bright, it's cute, it's pretty, but that's it. It's a diner girl working. It doesn't say more than that nor does it make me feel anything. You look at it, 'that's cute' and move on. It's empty and instantly forgettable.
The picture on the right however, though still not greatly drawn, it has emotion. Baylee drew this after her dog died and you can tell. You look at it and have to decipher, is she really being attacked or is this her inner demons coming out? What has happened to this girl for this to be happening? You feel sad for her, you may even relate to her. It creates thoughts, feelings and emotions. If it was in a realist style is would really stand out.
She needs to drop the fan arts and stiff cute pictures of nothing and focus on pieces that have emotion and a story to them, one that can be interpreted differently by different people preferably that would be a good start. She clearly lacks passion and she needs to find something to ignite that again.

If you think about something like Hello Kitty and how simplistic and almost lifeless that character seems, but people LOVE that brand because of it's "cuteness".

Back to what could work for her, I agree with whoever said that she’d be better of concentrating her time on making “cute” products, but she’s so slow with handling times, I’m not sure she could keep up with selling anything but what she already does.

>>818438She decided to reupload it on high trafic day after the video did initially pretty poorly. But of course if you reupload something most of your subs are gonna be like "Hey, I already watched that" and not watch it, so you're just losing views as a result.
It's pretty funny she freaks out about it tho. She clearly expected it to be a huge views magnet considering how clickbait the concept of it is, but it backfired really bad. Then again most of her subs are children so they probably don't care about GoT or know who the Night King is.

>>818456That's all subjective though. There are a lot great illustrations found in children books done by talented artists that show great artistic techniques being applied like color theory and lightenin. A piece doesn't have to tell a story, or be tragic af to leave an impressions. Lots of artists like Van Gogh painted around moods and interpretations for example.
Most of her illustrations suck though because they're lifeless and wonky and have muddy coloring or terrible color choices. And tbh that dark drawing is even worse to me than the waitress, since her hideous cartoony art style certainly doesn't fit such a piece.

>>818432Yeah like this is what I meant by her just trying to do everything but not being good at specifically anything.

But like, if she REALLY wants to concentrate on art and YouTube, then why not pay to do all the store work or like clean her house or whatever? She has the money.
I think that’s why I really like Katnipp’s studio vlogs and a couple other studio vlogs in general cuz it’s really fun to look at the working side of an art business that is thriving and knows what they’re doing. And I just pop into BJ’s cuz I have this morbid fascination with how well she thinks she’s doing when she’s just flying by the seat of her torn pants

>>818456She's an illustrator, not a gallery artist. What matters to illustrators is more technical, not ×+×feelz×+×. Baylee's art is terrible because her anatomy, coloring, composition, and storytelling suck. Those are the sorts of things that matter if you're an illustrator.
Also gallery art is rigged based on the interests of the curators and people only buy it for the tax write-offs. Seeing something in a gallery doesn't automatically mean that it's good- it means that whoever made it is friends with the curator.
Sorry for the derail. I agree that Baylee's art is trite and devoid of emotion.

I feel like she put more effort into this one and it kinda shows? Idk, it felt less rushed-for-money, but also the voiceover sounded really odd with her tone of voice and how she was speaking gently. It sounded out of character imo.
Hopefully she improves and learns a few things or applies new techniques from this series into other stuff she does and it doesn't just go downhill from here. I can easily see her giving up after the first few boxes and doing it halfassed.

I know people on lc don't love drawingwiffwaffles but baylee could really benefit from watching some of her subscription box vids. they send her downright bizarre stuff sometimes but it always turns out ok since she practices with the supplies to get a feel for how they work before jumping to a finished piece.

>>823101It was a comical farce.
For those that don’t know, It was a Christmas gift given to her from her father which she named Judy. She was Baylee’s ‘video editor’ and was well received for quite some time, she was used in cute/funny sketches where Baylee would abuse her, it wasn’t until some time later that someone pointed it it was a racist caricature and a shit storm soon erupted.
People complained the skin was too black, the face was ‘minstrel’ looking, her dress had the colours of the South African flag and that Baylee abusing it was promotion of white supremacy and slavery.
So Baylee responded by painting it’s skin brown, changed the colours of the dress and edited the face in some way. The changes caused even more of a shit storm as people felt it was even more racist now, some how, and that Baylee just didn’t get it.
Baylee got pretty upset because she had ruined her gift and the changes didn’t fix the issue and we haven’t seen or heard of Judy since. I can’t find any images of the changed version anywhere as she deleted them and the vlogs with it in.

>>824143>>824141 ^ Anons right plus its a lot less dangerous than public transport. What if he steps wrong? What if someone accidentally bumps into him and makes his foot worse? It can't be easier using PT when he has to hobble on that thing.
Sorry to delete and repost but to add, I'd rather spend my money on gas knowing he's getting to work safe and comfortably than sitting on my ass making excuses. She spends her money on useless shit anyway so the gas money will NOT hurt her wallet.

>I have an emotional attachment to her (Judy) and her involvement in my channel.What an odd response.
I understand the shame and embarrassment if you suddenly find out you look like a racist, but this isn't an apology. She's painting herself as a
victim of the circumstance.
If her audience is full of kids, perhaps the moral thing would be to inform them that this sort of thing isn't ok. People were buying Judy merch and kids were drawing Judy fanart. Yikes.

>>824104Holy fuck Baylee, you selfish cunt. Your husband is in crutches for maybe 6 months and you can’t find the time to sacrifice 2 or 3 hours of your day to help him. 6 months of being a good wife and driving him to and from work, maybe helping him around the house. It’s that part of marriage??
God forbid Christen should get cancer or something. Imagine her driving him to his appointments and the complaining she’d do.

>>824080I think this tweet in particular just captures her level of ignorance. Like, did she not bother to look into it or learn anything? I think removing the mascot completely without even trying to understand why some people found it offensive just goes to show how self-absorbed she is.

>>824037The pink clothes are okay, not flattering but what is?
The hair haaass to go tho. It's so thin and fried and ugh… My pet peeve: fried hair.
>>824040>>824129Broken down, off of the pins alone she is probably taking a huge loss from her packaging, but hourly wise… I think she'd make more money being on disability and that doesn't offer jack shit enough to live. I've commented about this before when she did this shit for convention pins but she's on a whole new level with her enamel pins.
Two things Baylee is good at: being a procrastinator, and being selfish.
She's not lazy, she has the will to do stuff but it's all in the wrong areas. She's stupid.
I truly think she's a dumb selfish cunt, yet I can't look away from the trainwreck, it even burns my eyes.

>>824364oh my GOD like wtf is the thought process here. why on earth would you buy and assemble 300000 boxes before working out what size envelope you were gonna put them into? Doesn't Canada have a system where she can print the postage frank onto the address label and pay online?
and yeah I bet if you said how much does each package actually cost, that's box, tissue paper, thank you card, sticker paper, printer ink, envelope, petrol for trips to the post office, and trips to the shop for tissue paper, plus overheads like electricity, wear and tear on her printer, car mileage/depreciation, software purchases eg for the address labels, website running costs and fees…
PLUS marketing costs like depreciation on equipment to film her videos/ post product photos etc,
PLUS the cost to her of each pin as delivered, plus each new backing card, plus the little plastic sleeves,
PLUS an hourly rate for her and Christian's time doing all this marketing work plus physical assembly… I'd be willing to bet she couldn't even begin to tell you. I fucking feel like I know more about her business than she does and that is really annoying me.

>>824540A bit of armchairing/tinfoiling. I've seen people who have so-called 'fun' jobs purposely add unnecessary laborious tasks into their day in order to try and convince others (or themselves) that their job is 'worthy' and difficult.
I wonder if that's what's happening here. I appreciate what she's going for with the packing and running the business from her own house, but it just seems like such a difficult way to go about doing things.

>>824689haha yeah that makes the most sense of all of it.
I have no idea how fragile these pins are, I hate pins and cannot understand why people buy them, but it's a chunk of metal covered in hard enamel isn't it, how damaged is it gonna get if you just wrap it in one layer of tissue or brown paper and then put it in a small envelope? or even one small bubble wrap pocket? if she saved the bubble wrap from stuff she gets delivered she could reuse it.
I think she also thinks all this shit is 'aesthetic' but it's really not. lord knows I like watching videos where people package up nice things they've made like soaps, so it's not the general idea I hate, but the idea of all this effort going on this rubbish is just depressing

>>824757>Filming Kiki whilst the box tower almost falls on her.This was shocking, I was surprised she didn't say more or do more about it. Makes me worried for the cats' safety but also doesn't impress me that she allows a part of her product branding to be treated like that.
Inb4 the cats habitually use the stack of boxes as a scratching post (like we caught a glimpse of in her blog) and all the boxes have damage to the edges. I'm guessing fans won't care anyway because Kiki and Midna are cute.
No. 824806
>>824767I think this is where she lucks out with her buyers; I assume almost all of her customers are people who watch her videos and give her major leeway with the cats because - like you said - they think they're cute.
I think many other small business owners would not allow such cat integration with the product (laying on stuff, scratching stuff, etc.) for various reasons including allergies. But I guess the one thing you can say is that she is very transparent with it.

>>824820I totally agree with this. I think she has been trying to mimic katnipp since she tried to do the whole 'studio vlog' segment which ended up being a fail. Also when BJ designed her first pin. She tried gushing over them the same way katnipp does when she receives her pin orders (difference here being Katnipp actually seems genuine in her reaction and not just putting on a show).
I also thought she was trying to copy her too with the whole packaging style and was expecting her to toss in some confetti too! I really like Katnipp and think she conducts her business properly, takes it serious while still having fun and sincere to her personality which matches her brand. You can also tell she actually enjoys everything she does and isnt taking advantage of her audience. These are all things that BJ lacks which is probably why every time she does this it ends up a shit show with her being 'burnt out' or 'exhausted'.
Granted, she does sell out of her pins because her fans just eat her BS up - but i agree she is trying to create more work to make her seem like she is actually doing something but in reality she is only spending what… a week out of a year or half year actually being productive? I honestly think this is her trying to keep her business afloat but then again it cant be doing much to help if she is paying for all this extra packaging material and lowballing her prices.

>>825293Summary for video:
Shows drawing for next art video, actually sketched some shit out but it's just "drew some shapes and made it into hair" … "Wanted to make a dainty looking girl." Girl with updo bun, jump suit, holding a bug net all sailor-moon-esque?
Lets Kiki play in the shipping boxes that are piled under her desk. Kiki almost knocks stacks over multiple times.
Ordered from U-line, got 5x5 envelopes for prints, talks about how U-line only offers 1 day shipping for 40$ so she ordered more than she needed.
Complaining they're too big for the smaller packages but will work for the 6x6 boxes- someone told her to stack boxes on top of each other opened instead of closed for time management.
Returns to door area, "got chipboard fa tha futuaaa." Tldr: Don't need it but I absolutely love to spend too much money!!
Returns to room
"Someone mentioned glassine packaging for the prints? They're more expensive than envelopes so they aren't cheap, but I'll still look around.. I wonder what sizing…" Blah blah blah "last time I looked I wanted to replace the clear sleeves (of the pins) with glassine.."
"169$ for a thousand. For a 4x6 which is not the right size."
They have them for the pins. "2000 for 35$ that's cheaper than the plastic. But they'd be left open at the top… They wouldn't seal but it'd be somewhat protectant right?"
"i have a lot of sleeves left over but I kinda want to order them now…I could try a fewww but they only offer them in packs of 2000…well they're only 35$! Sorry. I'm so excited about these now. I wouldn't have to fold down the back (of the sleeves) so that's one less step but they wouldn't be as cute"
"i did a comparison, the sleeves are 6 cent to 7 cents per bag, the glassine ones are 2 cents per bag!"
"i have over 600 orders to package"
Packaging montage, it's at 666 orders unfulfilled
Blah blah blah thanks for buying my cheaply made stuff that the packaging costs more for! It means a lot to make stuff and sell it to children.
Blah blah blah ran out of small boxes, will use bubble mailers for backup
Went to the post office. Forgot one that was on the floor.
Shows her feet in flipflops (AN: ew)
Gonna work on international orders, ship them on friday, then work on US orders and take multiple trips to chitchats.
Hur dur tissue paper breaky my mind! Gotta figure out how to make it fit in the box and look pretty!
Is overly critical of how the tissue paper sits and folds.
Shakes package around like a derp to see if the pins that are wrapped in plastic protective sleeves inside tissue paper moves around, because it's daynguroeoous.
Another montage- got halfway through international orders.
Tldr: Baylee's dumb, and tissue paper breaks her mind.

>Look everyone, my dumbass cat is climbing on, crushing, scratching up, getting fur all over (which you may be allergic to btw) and rubbing her ass all over the boxes that the shit you order from me will be arriving in!
>Gotta buy more shit that I don't need or have room for just because! These pins need covers to protect them even though I wrap them in tissue paper which would protect them any way but nooo I need to be as wasteful as possible.
>Need to start packaging orders! Oh by the way, blah blah blah blah, okay now to start, oh and blah blah blah blah, finally going to start, wait never mind! Gotta run to the post office first, get some food, order some more shit online and then might finally get around to starting.
>Thank you everyone for making 700 orders that I really don't want to waste my time packaging and waste my ENTIRE day when I rather sit on my ass and do nothing. Well actually it's a good thing because I don't have to film any ART videos because I now have yet another excuse! No. 825443
