I gazed too deeply into the void. Now all I see are premade brushes. The inkling picture doesn't even try to hide it.

Actually that is a photoshop effect, it's fairly simple to do as well

I wonder when he'll dip bellow 80...

It boggles my mind how he manages to draw exclusively unsympathetic looking characters. I don't know anything about this game (well, it is about paint-shooting squid people, I gathered that much), but Google tells me that this girl is supposed to look like this:

Kinda cute, methinks.

Nookie Bear turns the poor little thing into one of his ill-tempered monstrosities, shame on him.

Another thing: He drew her ears in the shape of elf ears, probably subconsciously returning to his shitty Atea character. The character design by Nintendo shows her ears in the shape of squid fins though, thus following the human/cephalopod hybrid theme.

When you yourself are unsympathetic, it tends to reflect on your shit. Be it art, rants or general personality and relationships. Dobby's the embodiment of all things shitty when it comes to art.

Also, I'm pretty sure that's not what her shoes look like Dobbo. It's like he never looked at the official artwork.

Why's it so goddamn ugly?

Why's it so goddamn ugly?

Because Dobson drew it.

He didn't even attempt to simulate paint/ink splats properly, just looks like a generic comic effect.

(Art critic time, so excuse me, here...)
Dobson is experimenting with more vibrant colour than usual...Although, there is still something unnatural and rigid about his posing.
Artists here will know what I mean when I say Andy seems to have trouble just letting loose with his lines and creating nice figure work.

On the profit side, he is at least drawing one of the hands quite well...The one holding the gun, not so much...
If Dobs got his head down and done some comic work regularly, he might get back into good practice...

Now that you mention it, the style I guess that Dobson was trying to nail was this one:

Thing is, those guys (KND creators) knew how to make things really fluid and appealing.

It's kinda appalling considering he's spent about 100 hours in Splatoon this week and only 1 hour in Photoshop that he'd make that mistake, although I guess those hours were spent staring at squidgirl butt not squidgirl headflaps.

 

[Trombonista]

I want to play Splatoon but I don't have a WiiU.

Dobson should check his console privilege.

 

[Skeletor]

Christ, everything he draws these days is pouty and punchable, even cutesy girly Nintendo characters.

 

[Sniper Monkey]

She looks so offended to be drawn by Dobson. I can't blame her really: If I was drawn by Dobson, I'd be offended too.

 

[Chan the Wizard]

Dobby probably should have stuck with staying on model. Making the inside of her tentacle-hair pink makes it looks like the suction cups are belly buttons.

 

[Skeletor]

Those are frigging bowties on her shoes, not laces.

I also want to bring up that he doesn't seem to follow even basic animation construction.. Layman: Dobs draws freehand, not building the character in spherical, blocky or cylindrical forms. This also adds a bit of flatness to the picture. It goes without saying he is lazy, but it goes double when he is LE ARTISTE, the undiscovered Don Bluth, one of the great animators. Even now, if you work in comics, you can turn that into an animation career.

Dobson should just check his existence privileges and rethink his life. Cause this obsession of making terribad drawings, bitching on twitter and slacking off does not feel healthy at all.

I dunno, a few of his pictures look like they were constructed from the basics, which does explain why everything looks so pear-shaped at times.

So I guess it's just that he has a bad grasp at drawing period. Maybe if he boned up on his anatomy he wouldn't have this problem. But he's probably going to fuck that up too.

In a dark, alternate universe, the head animator at disney posts this on twitter. Thank god this isn't that universe.

 

[AnOminous]

So he gets two distinctive features wrong, the ears and actually more importantly the eye color. How do you get shit that basic wrong?

If anyone cared what the fuck an idiot like Dobson does spergs would be rioting.

At least, if you get it later, will have more content and you will feel better over expending 60 dollars. Don't get me wrong, is a great game but waiting for the big summer update is going to be painful.
