just a personal note: I love DA and the fandom-positive community!
But I'm flat out not touching Neve art that explicitly hides or otherwise obviously+awkwardly avoids her prosthetic. like the otherwise really cool piece I just saw where I'm assuming the artist just 'left it covered by her pants' (still a whole copout) and didn't actually intend to just disappearify her disability like that. Or like the pieces I've seen keeping her pinned behind a desk/couch/whatever while EVERYONE else gets to run around in frame with their highly-detailed toesies bc 'its too hard to draw a golden snakefoot much :( I just didn't feel like it :( I only ever wanna draw her face/top half/from knees up what's wrong with that :('
It may not be my specific disability, and I will NEVER harass any creators over this kinda thing (rather grumble to myself here in my own space) but I am just too disabled for that behavior to not be fucking gross.
So I just simply will quietly not engage with those works, and instead continue to support works and artists who at least MAKE A REASONABLE/EQUITABLE ATTEMPT :)
#like. if davrins got his feet propped up on the desk and manfreds runnin around in the bg#and harding is dancing around in her clogs etc etc#and poor Neve is just stuck Behind Something or sitting with legs hidden. in every frame. like come ON#she deserves better#fandom critical#i guess?#the first time i tried to talk about this i got '🙄 nothing wrong with busts you just dont understand artists/how much more work it is'#bestie i AM an ARTIST and I know EXACTLY what i am talking about thanks#dragon age#like i dont care if it's a fuckin squiggle. i dont care if it looks “good”#but just putting her in regular ol' pants and shoes like 'oh its there u just cant see it :)' ?????#conveniently hiding that whole leg behind the other in 3/4 view? over and over again?#im just sighing into my drink abt it nbd#rambleramble bullshit time#FUCK IT DRAW HER BACKUP PROSTHETIC INSTEAD OF THE SNAKE IDFC#*whispers into the void* cowards
