#drarry fanartists

[anotherxielianstan]

I don't ship Drarry but god damn are those fan artists good. I keep getting Drarry fanart on my page, and I keep liking them every time cause its just so good. And then I get more Drarry fanart.

[olderthannetfic]

I always see people who have never been antis, talking about/questioning how some antis even ARE antis when you look at their taste in media - ie the ever famous joke of "Hannigram is #problematique" "but it's a show where he eats people" or whatever.

I thought I'd weigh in as someone who could, hypothetically, be called an ex-anti (which, thankfully, nothing ever really came out of it - it was just very 2014 keyboardwarrior-esque behavior of me being a chronically online young adult who would share posts in a group chat making fun of certain shippers, or reblog posts about how 50shades is The Most Problematic Media Ever to exist -- basically I was an anti with anti-lines of thoughts, but i never, like, a ran a Shipping Discourse Blog or whatever)

For me, personally, it was a few different things. I can now see how it's incredibly hypocritical that teenaged me shipped Light/L, while still thinking that Dramione was Bad And Abusive. It ultimately boiled down to a) being pretentious, and b) just not understanding media or what proshippers REALLY believed, with a side of c) not realizing that nuance exists. like i was pretty late to join tumblr, I think I immigrated here during PEAK "yourfaveisproblematic" era which definitely did have an impact on my opinions and my tastes.

to elaborate, a.) being pretentious. i mean this one just kinda goes without saying. "I engage in media in a way more intellectual way than you do, don't you know that? You're a filthy and disgusting person who writes Snape/Hermione because you're an actually disgusting pedophile IRL who would probably date your own student that you're abusing if you could. Meanwhile, I'm a very smart, good, and pure person. When I read Uncle Vernon/Harry, I'm doing it in a G-d honoring whump way that clearly condemns abuse, incest, and rape. Unlike YOU who only writes harmful stuff as a way to get people off :/"

(as an aside, i think this line of thinking will ALWAYS be present in fandom and popculture in some way, sadly. ie the recent trend of people hating on booktok bc the books are 'trashy' and how these porn addicts should read real classic literature instead.)

as for b.), not understanding media - i cannot emphasize enough that i was GENUINELY stupid and disconnected enough to think that proshippers REALLY WERE pro-All Of The Degenerate Dead Doves That They Wrote.

why did i feel this way? why did i understand that Lolita clearly isnt pro-pedophilia, but for some reason i thought that someone shipping weecest was? well, first of all, i think that fanfiction is (generally) seen as Less Serious than classic literature, and fandom is a fun place, so i guess i somehow thought that every fanfic/fanartist who wrote Problematic Things, especially Problematic Things that they portrayed as Sexy, really DID enjoy the thought of that Actually Happening To Real People.

and i think THIS is the bulk of why antis ARE antis. i'm not calling them all stupid - i do think BEING an anti is stupid, but at the same time, there are people who are truly smart and good-intended people who just have some really off color opinions about, like, homestuck ships or whatever. Lawlight is okay because notebooks that kill people don't exist so it's IMPOSSIBLE for the Harmful Aspects of Light/L to be romanticized! but schoolyard prejudiced bullies DO exist and are a REAL problem so Drarry is BAD (*truly completely unaware of the fact that there's 'realistic' aspects of the Light/L dynamic and 'unrealistic' aspects of Drarry - such as, for example, Hogwarts arguably being even MORE of a fantasy setting than DN is.*) I know that media literacy is the hot buzzword of the year to throw around in 2024, but, like, i really did not have media literacy.

as for c.), not realizing nuance exists - ok "nuance" might not be the best word here, but i dont know how else to describe it. like, each time ive typed the word "problematic" out in this ask, i've done so in a very tongue in cheek/ironic/retroactive way, but, like, those posts about how Everything Is Problematic, Including Your Fave ARE true. and i didn't like the fact that my favorite media or favorite person might've Made A Mistake! i need to Talk About Its Issues Because I'm So Betrayed That My Dear Sweet Comfort Media Would Do This To Me. I Need To Prove I Clearly Condemn It.

like, i legit morally could not justify reblogging a twilight post without adding in the tags '#this is my guilty pleasure it sucks that the books were so racist though' or whatever. Most people were lucky enough to avoid that line of thinking, but there was an actual group of people who felt a genuine need to virtue signal all the time, partly bc, hey, they WERE passionate about talking abt #issues in media, but also bc of a subconscious fear of If You Reblog A Singular Piece Of Hetalia Fanart, You're Literally A Nazi And Will Get A Callout Post Written About You.

and during all of this i was at the tail end of my high school experience (yes i know im younger than most of your audience, ha). i was going through A Lot emotionally, going through a lot of life changes, and lived in a very . . . interesting household/place where i couldn't do ACTUAL good in the world that i was passionate about. so to make up for the fact that i was genuinely in no place to do legit activism, clearly i had to save the gay community by arguing about johnlock queerbaiting or whatever.

^ and honestly i do think that is the position of most antis. theyre isolated and cant seem to do Enough in the Real Scary World so they have to resort to talking about how bad of a person someone is for "shipping abuse", bc theyre not in a situation where they could, for example, ACTUALLY fight the good fight to end abuse or raise awareness for it.

There was way more to it and way more that I could say, if I wanted to, but this post is long enough as it is and probably doesn't make much sense.

I feel bad for antis, honestly, or at least the ones who are antis in the way I used to be.

--

Oh yes, passionate young fools who think they can at least fix the internet if not their lives make up most of the cannon fodder. Some of the ringleaders are just mini dictators and wannabe cult leaders, but most anti-leaning types are just traumatized or clueless, even a lot of the ones who do serious damage and don't just mock shit in private with their friends.

god works hard but drarry fanartists work harder

[littlewinnow]

do you know of any drarry discords or less public communities? im a fanartist and like drawing them but the fandom scares me a bit too much to post tbh 😵‍💫

Hello Anon! Unfortunately I don’t really know any discords (I’d love to find some) or less public communities.

If it helps I started with insta and there are a lot of kind drarry artists/accounts I’ve interacted with on there!

(If anyone can help anon with this feel free to respond to the post!)

I want to get into drarry content because i love how all the fanartists collectively decided harry wasnt white anymore.

april is over? is that legal? 

this month sort of handed my ass to me in many ways, and despite starting and enjoying many fics, i only finished a few. but since i didn’t do any art recs last month, i wanted to put together some art i loved seeing on my dash in april and save my fic favs for a longer post in may. 

i’m trying to spotlight art that has posted recently so that you can find some amazing and active drarry fanartists to give a follow!

@pato-roldnart​’s��illustration of one of @firethesound’s all our secrets laid bare 

i love pato’s art - the expressiveness and coloring always makes me stop and stare every time it crosses my dash. i actually partly blame seeing their art in my early fandom days for my long hair!draco obsession. this illustration is of one of my favorite fics, and it captures everything about it so well, with gorgeous details and amazing outfits.

@melcarrianna​’s drarry getting touchy 

melcarrianna is an absolute master with poses, and all of her recent soft, passionate art proves it. there’s something very essentially drarry that she captures in herwork, and this is one of my favorites, in all its pretzel-y goodness.

@amaisart​‘s Kintsugi Kisses 

i really can’t put into words how much i love this transfest art. it’s soft and tender and sensual, but also expertly drawn and beautifully colored. i loved finding all of the sparks of hearts at each of their points of contact, and the loving rendering of trans bodies is always incredible to see.

@reebeex​​’s mini comic, worried 

i just adore an auror harry/healer draco dynamic, and this comic hits every note and then spoils us with a gorgeous and unique healer uniform. something about reebeex’s style feels very classic drarry, and the final panel makes me laugh every time i see it.

@immortalacorn​​’s flower shop

there is so much to love about this attentive illustration - all of the plants and interior details, the expressions, their outfits, draco’s! hair!, but i think what i adore the most is the evening lighting and how it gives the entire piece a sense of a calm, daily life, and of the two people sharing it.

@rosalyfart​‘s seeker’s games

i could not recommend following rosalyfart more for regular pick-me-ups on your dash - they’ve been drawing comics to answer asks as draco, often set during hogwarts years, and they are uniformly charming, beautifully illustrated, and VERY draco. this is one of my favs because of the classic oh shit oh fuck he’s hot panic at the end - it lands perfectly.

@jasd-jc​‘s dark/light drarry portrait

there are so many layers to this gorgeous art - i adore the poses and expressions, and the gorgeous golden textures and touches give it such a timeless and classical feeling, like a magical portrait from which they would slightly judge everyone in their home.

@emmesse96reborn​​’s first boyfriend experience

i love the way emmesse works with color - all of her art seems to just sort of glow. i love the tenderness and the story of this piece... and YEAH MAYBE IT’S HEDRIC WHAT OF IT?? if hedric isn’t your thing, fear not - emmesse creates gorgeous drarry art, and often opens her inbox for requests on saturdays.
