#art controversy

[heavenlyraindrops]

was gonna post this on my art blog but I want ppl to see this. Kooleen, if you’re out there, if you somehow manage to see this, I would like you to know that for the past few months you have been hanging by a thread with the racism and sexualising jaiden but the fanart you made of characters is the last fucking straw. That’s not dr. Ratio that’s Mr. Algebra. That’s not Kenji Sato that’s. Okay I dont even know what he is in ur art. That’s not Charlie Morningstar that’s Charcoal Nightmoon idfk ok. My girls and my mans don’t deserve ur Yassifying treatment. You butcher every character you touch. Sleep with one eye open because I am coming for you.

Okay I don't usually get serious on this page but like... this Lavendertowne "situation" is kind of ridiculous. I didn't watch the video she posted when it came out, but I have seen the designs, and they're honestly completely fine for someone who hasn't watched the show (which I'm pretty sure she hasn't). Are they as good as some other designs she's done? No, but that doesn't change the fact that she's an excellent artist, and HUMAN. People can have a bad art day, and frankly, I don't even she dropped the ball that badly on this, but the amount of backlash and just generally horrible comments I've seen about this is genuinely sickening. No, her skills are not declining. No, this isn't the downfall of Lavendertowne, you are all just desperate for controversy. Stop being dramatic and leave the poor woman alone. And to Lavendertowne if you ever see this (which I doubt but y'know), you are absolutely wonderful, you inspired me to start drawing in the first place back in 2017, and many others too. Keep doing what you do, and I'm sorry so many people on the internet suck xx

I've been working on this one for some time! My thoughts on AI and AI-generated content!

I've been with wolfstar for over 10 years. People used to predominantly draw that kind of Sirius for nearly a decade. It's only been in the last few years I've seen genderfluid/femme/enby/transpectrum Sirius. It's not only gender affirming, but also a nice balance to old representation. I appreciate every artist that has broken the mold of asshole buff bad boy Sirius that doesn't give a fuck about his friends feelings and treats his Twink Remus like shit. Let artists create *their* vision. Stop acting like an entitled consumer.

"Artists need to stop being allergic to drawing sirius with more muscles and body hair"

Fucking do it yourself, don’t tell artists what to do

Here's a page of a comic I've been thinking of. I don't know if I'll finish it, but posting might help motivate me. Or I'll move on to the next thing, haha.

This was a super controversial series of comics when I posted them on Reddit a year ago. So much so that Zombie Comic Aura talks about it in a video covering T&E sins.

I still don't regret it, because it sets up a little more complexity to Tiff and Eve's relationship. I would have made a few changes if I had thought ahead a little more, but I mention that in Aura's the video.

More Tiff & Eve on Webtoon. Support the comic on Patreon.

Low key very tired of people responding to veilguard criticism with something along the lines of “lol these people have no media literacy, didn’t you understand what the game was telling you??” Yes, yes I understand what the game was trying to tell me. That doesn’t mean I have to like it or the way the writers went about it.

Also the whole argument of “well, the dragon age fandom proved they couldn’t handle xyz controversial character/element of the story so that’s why veilguard had very little references to those things” kinda grinds my gears a bit. I don’t think it can be proven with 100% certainty what writing decisions were made based on past fandom reactions to the other games, but I do think it would be an incredibly shitty move to simplify or remove complexity from a story just because there might be a portion of the audience who doesn’t get it. “The fandom couldn’t even handle Vivienne” Yeah a good amount of people dismissed her as a selfish snooty bitch, but I didn’t and a lot of other people didn’t and to remove complex and interesting characters like her on the basis that enough people “won’t get it” just feels like a disservice to all of us.
