As someone who does do commercial art I have to say that's a load of shit. Tons of artists reach a "comfort zone" and don't feel the need to improve or do anything else. Like her shading and backgrounds right now are shoddy compared to her old work.
that's like a black belt saying I can break a board, but then they break a paper in half instead, yes pk can draw just like she used to, the problem is that she chooses quantity over quality, and that doesn't just show in her art but her other work as well
I can't even muster the energy to jack off sometimes, I ain't gonna spend hours and any amount of effort on something like that. I am, however, interested in a link, since I somehow missed said counter blog.
I'd be interested in seeing what sort of art you produce, if it weren't for powerleveling. That said, I don't disagree that their backgrounds and shading are lacking to nonexistant. That doesn't mean they aren't capable of it, it means they doesn't give a shit about it in comparison to producing content quickly.
I'm not gonna say it isn't a problem, because to some people it's a deterrent for reading Floraverse. But it isn't one to glip, and at the end of the day it doesn't make a lot of sense to piss and moan because they aren't tailoring their content to me.
I welcome all opinions, autistic or otherwise. I agree with you on pacing and the ratio of art to words in many panels. That reminds me of someone's criticism of how many of glip's comic panels are basically talking heads, which I also agree with. Their comic structuring could definitely use work.
It's been mentioned many times in this thread that her laziness combined with an unwillingness to learn from mistakes is the primary issue.
At least two of those things were mentioned in my previous post, along with "I agree with those points."
And? All of these things make for a poor comic, but you've been doing nothing but sperging about how we should just let PK do their thing, acting like it would be perfect if only we let the janky art go.
I mean, I am primarily sperging about garbo criticisms of the visual aspect. I don't care about the bitching in general, but at least make sense.
Feel free to traverse the thread. Not necessarily reading all the posts, but that sources are provided when kiwis bring up information so you may form your own opinion before stepping in and making an ass out of yourself.
I agree with attempts at objective criticism. I disagree with the people that act like glip owes it to anybody to tailor their work to them, and I disagree with people who don't actually seem to know what they're talking about yet try to give critique. There was some thread here I can't remember that had folks posting redraws of Floraverse. Not edits, but redraws. And tbh they were complete dogshit, and it blew my mind that hatred for glip seemed to override common sense and, like, having monitors turned on or something, and people were circlejerking about how juvenile doodles were objectively better than what glip produces????
I have. It's all he-said-she-said. If I was personally witness to it, or if there was solid evidence, then I'd say okay. But it's just personal testimonials and chat logs that can easily be fabricated, so. I don't have a strong opinion either way.
Lol yes it does. "Riding a bike" is pretty much the ONLY skill a human being cannot forget how to do. Since she's been doing half-assed flat art for so long now, I'd bet she'd have to work pretty hard and give it several good tries to get back to where she used to be. Sure, she could eventually get there again, but it wouldn't be like "LOOK ITS LIKE I NEVER FORGOT AT ALL"
I don't know what to tell you other than that's not how art skill works. Source: am artist.
