You know, I agree with your taste, I'm not a fan of shadman's work, as well as many other artists that go too far on distorting anatomy while not grasping how it works, and while I think a bit of sexualization can even be fun, too much of it kinda gets disturbing. I really like distorting anatomy, but I believe you need a grasp at how anatomy works before going too far, lenlen's work is an example of how you can distort things without making them looking disturbing.
But as someone who likes drawing ''sexy'' stuff, and isn't a master at anatomy, I do feel like I need to make a stand here. Anatomy is tough, and not everyone who destroys it is doing it on purpose, recently I tried giving some tips to someone who's art was bothering me, and he was very grateful and did use the thing I say as ways to improve. I feel that many artists on this website just need a bit of criticism and help to improve, no matter how long they've gone without making a change to their style. You're in the crossroads between being a really good example to rookies, and being a mega bitch. Instead of flaming overrated artists on how they don't try to improve and don't listen to criticism, why don't you try giving tips to someone who does?

Whenever the opportunity sets itself up for me to do so I do! I love helping people learn to draw better.

Why would you post something like this, say that you know hate is coming, and then acknowledge it? You obviously did this for the attention. I can see many anatomy flaws in your work as well, but you learn and you get better. Instead of insulting these artists, try being mature... or at least acting like it.

read the posts under this if you want. i dont have time to get in depth with a response like this.

Takopako's Two Cents! : While it is an "In Your Face" approach, i believe that your endeavors are well justified, as well as appreciated...by me, at least. Not only am i reminded that I need to stay the hell on it, when it comes to my anatomical studies, but it's a reminder that even the more popular people(on newgrounds and everywhere) dont necessarily have it all together. It sends a great and necessary message of just focusing on bettering the art, whether you're a new artist or not so much.

All of that to say, if i ever get mildly popular(which isnt likely, but that's okay), and get stuck in the loop of everlasting mediocrity, it would certainly be more of a boon, than bane, to be a part of such a list.

Also i love you. but that is another story.

I wouldn't worry about it, mediocrity is always a thing, but it takes a special kind of person to get stifled by their own ego (not that these people in particular are all stifled by ego, but you get what I mean in a general sense, right?). You seem like you have your ducks in a row. Keep on doin what you do.

if u no like tits toggle adult filter lol
problem fixed

not the issue here. you missed the point of the post.

Hahaha, i agree, i always thought the first three drew females really weird, (with so many people praising him i always thought i was the only one that thought shadman drew girls weird), the fourth one i didn't know. But really i cannot laugh at them because i'm as bad :(

I'm bound to agree with you, but I love poorly drawn smut! I don't really think the point is to be anatomically correct...just saying.

well its fine if the effect is to be funny, but its poor craftsmanship if its supposed to be taken seriously.

I'm gay.

best. guide. ever.
