can we please not bring this shit back
the nice, kind and cooperative hexbears are gone. and WE'RE BACK
the needlessly aggressive and puritanical people unaccountably argumentative about cartoon illustrations
i deliberately entered a thread full of things i do not like, and now i am upset. how could this have happened?
KillAllHornyPosters likes the wonky horny deviant art drawing
They’re just drawings of women
it's weird and the art is mid
This is fun and thought terminating. Care to elaborate what makes the art "mid"?
Deviant art aesthetic that you can place when you've consumed a lot of it. For me it's defined by it's reliance on artistic crutches for lack of ability and imagination. Less "my style" from informed study and more this is all I know how to do well. For example, look at the mouths, the same angle on everyone of faces and the hiding of hands so they don't have to draw them. It's something I personally dislike immensely so this part is just me.
I guess I don't see the hand complaint here, looks like they're dynamic enough when the pose calls for it. I'm just apprehensive about reducing art in a vacuum, especially when it's more than serviceable. It seems like this artist is problematic for other reasons, so stigma aside I'd rather appreciate it for being fun after some stereotypes are addressed.
Again, I personally don't like it, that's just me. But I also find the fetishization and nerdiness of it off putting
Certainly, I'm not here for that aspect of the struggle session.
