SJW Art and Extremes

[Nikolaso]

I notice a lot of young artists in particular have this smug attitude of "lol I don't need to learn the basics, shows like Adventure Time and SU exist and they aren't even close to being realistic", as if these animators didn't need to learn how basic fucking anatomy works before they went and stylized it.

Actually somebody once said that "Why learn something when you don't want to/need to learn that?" (in art)

But you really need to learn everything, as an artist (If they are), and of course then you can know what kind of style/stylization you want, and do you want cartoons or semi or anything.
It's not supposed to be;
"Well I don't want to" "It's my style" etc.
And also they are missing a lot when they don't.
One thing I do is, I usually change between styles and realistic to something really cartoony. whatever goes.

 

[White bubblegum]

Basically this. They're trying to copy something they're a fan of without having any knowledge of actual anatomy---they're skipping straight to stylization without actually learning why or how it works, or how to make it look appealing.

I agree. Going straight into cartooning, heavily stylized or not, without knowing some basic anatomy and composition usually results in these ersatz SU styles we often see here.

I like the way this artist drew Tomoko even if it's not that accurate to her canon look(she has a rounder face) but holy crap, what did Yuu do to deserve this? To be fair you can still tell that she's a stylish bubbly girl like she is in canon, but still, why?

Long time lurker, here's a small contribution for now while I gather more shit.

Guess the character

Craig from South Park.

Edit: Oops, didn't see that someone got it.

I think this is an example of racebending done well though. It’s more subtle and Josuke looks a lot like Prince anyways.

But it's not limited to giving him a pretty anime boy face, people also like giving him a strong jaw, getting rid of his broken, yellowed teeth (and gold tooth), minimizing the nose, and giving him a handsome physical build

Spoiler: Woobying

People really want the ugly rat man to be smol and sad, making him tiny and childlike despite being 6'5"/6'6"
This can be changing his personality to be a pathetic punching bag who won't defend himself, or straight up drawing him 4 ft tall

So tumblr draws male characters looking more attractive than they actually are and female characters looking ugly. Huh. Almost like tumblr has a large female userbase and these girls don't like seeing hot females because it makes them feel insecure but at the same time they want to lust over guys.

yup, they turn girls ugly out of some kinda revenge against straight dudes, so that "they cant jack off to it" or whatever the fuck and then go on and on about how THEY find them attractive this way to come off as better than them straight guys

but theyre also a buncha horny teenage girls

Because just shipping straight couple is embarrassing.

but what about the lesbians? Lesbians like pretty girls just like guys do. Or maybe that's why they draw lesbians looking particularly hideous
This ones not as bad as some in the thread, but theyre both way prettier in the movie. They have these weird ugly man-faces. And its not due to a lack of skill, the artist can obviously draw well.

emily kaldwin

Spoiler: kill me

she's a stringbean and in no way has thicc thighs.

obligatory black/brownface with her nonbinary loveinterest, Wyman (although, Wyman is implied genderless for the reader to make up their own for them, so this passes...for now. not really actually.)

blah blah look at me I'm ~~~~~Gay~~~~

Spoiler: bonus corvo attano and his man-wife jessamine

how can you step back and look at your finished product, and think to yourself: "yup, looks good!"

hm, was wondering when that would show up here. was tempted to do it myself but glad someone else did, i absolutely hate looking at the tag now, because dishonored is one of my favorite games. not so much the second one.

i could go on a rant about everything, long story short though. dishonored 2 was a mistake

 

[Literally Whojak?]

I know that artist
they can make some pretty good shit sometimes, they're one of the few lgbt artists who actually know(and give a shit) about how drawing, anatomy, and color theory works

Spoiler: some of their works

but like any other tumblr artist with a midget of actual skill left, like said by IdaRita, they've always gotta waste it on, um..

Spoiler: you get the drill by now

EDIT: fixed broken images

Honestly I don't mind racebending that much as long as it's clearly shown to have thought put into it, like changing stuff like hair texture, like this one is pretty good.

People who only just recolor the skin of a character like it's some coloring book and then also act like smug cunts about it are annoying.

View attachment 535310

I think the proportions are wonky on this one---their man-heads look way too big, especially the pink-haired one on the left.

Actually, looking at some of their other art, it looks like they give most of the female characters they draw accidental Chad faces:

Spoiler: This is supposed to be D.Va

Spoiler: And this is apparently a woman

It's true this artist does have some talent going on here though, particularly with their coloring skills.

Gotta applaud the oh so subtle lesbianism here.

why do i feel like ive seen this comic in like 100000 other forms
literally no creativity in these guys minds

 

[Drunk_Alien]

Why do people not understand that shipping real people is wrong? Shit like this is why I don't want to watch Marikplier or Jack.

Same people who bitch about fictional ships that are "" underage/age gap/incest/abusive"" are morally wrong but shipping real people is fucking okay.
