Let the flaming begin, I'm not going on Anon.

Honestly? What the fuck. You sit here, complaining about other artist’s styles, genres, content what ever the fuck irritates your delicate sensibilities and you have the gall to accuse artists who work, and who strive with their art that they don’t deserve the recognition they get? Who the fuck are you? Honestly, you’re children. That’s what you are. “Oh, I...

Darn Young'ns!

Ahhh, what a dumb title. ANYWAY, figured I’d pass some positivity to this dramu llamu blog. It think its very well safe to say that for many artists, when they see an amazing piece of work and found out its by someone younger than them, they want to fall to their knees and weep. Myself included!! You’ve been putting so much effort into your work just to find out there’s someone younger and better...

(1) - I can’t say I don’t like few, but it’s hard to sort one out that was especially good since we have more than 1000 posts. From the lastest, I’d say I liked the one about positive gender identity and sexuality a lot. :) -Admin D I like the more personal ones that give me some insight on other people’s lifes as an artist! I think that is quite interesting....

"Anime" art isn't just desudesu

It annoys the heck out of me when I see people brushing off anything stylized as anime art that has no foundational skills or anything in it, as something that is completely generic. Sure, desu-art has no regard for foundations and such—I’ll admit that as much as the next person. But how can you put together Tite Kubo in the same pile as Doraemon? As soon as you elitists see something...

Don't ever give up.

I’ve been developing a world I created since I was eleven. My inspiration came from the Zelda franchise, and included its’ lead character…you could call it “fan fiction” if you wanted to be basic about it, but as it developed and hundreds of characters and side stories and eight book concepts came out of just one world, it grew on me and with me. I was iffy about...

What's with all this hate with "tracing" photos?

I’ve read confessions where people state that they have “lost respect” for artists when they find out that they use photos and image stocks as bases/reference and “trace” them. They act like the artists are suddenly frauds and liars. Well, let me inform you guys: Both of my parents are professional illustrators, with my dad being an art director and decently famous...
