/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

explain

>>4596856
is almost the triple now anon.

U jelly?

>>4596856
/ic/ thinks it's based.

The only reason I'm learning to draw is so I can become a furry porn artist and not get a real job. I'm not even a furry.

>>4596856
nobody cares about you. imagine coming here for validation of all places lmao

>>4596856
>imagine unironically introducing yourself as an artist with such a name

>>4596926
>I'm not even a furry

>>4596926
idk why you'd wanna appeal to a notoriously shitty niche when you can draw cute girls and do fine

>>4596879
Good for them

I'm genuinely happy for them. Busted to the tomboy hypnosis comic, shit was cash.

>>4596856
One of the better ones that deserve 1000 patrons.

>>4596856
Who even is this and why should I care

>>4596856
>He doesn't make 2k a month

>>4596856
crazy how some people get so successful so quick, i honestly don't understand it. There are many other artists that market themselves as well/ just as skilled and this guy got to 143k followers in a years time.

I'm not saying this isn't inspiring though, good on them.

>>4597079
>>4597087

>them >them >them >them
It's a single person, retards.

>>4596926
Im so sick of people falling for this meme and saturating the market with their shit art.
Fuck off, you are not going to make big bucks doing furry porn, you got fucking played.

>e-begging and drawing fetishes of other people is the goal of /ic/
Lol how many of you guys live in some dog shit third world country
God have higher goals

>>4597334
Are you ESL or something? It can be used as a singular.

>>4597334
"Them" is a way of referring to a single person if you don't know their gender, retard.

>>4596926
same! haha =D

Isn't this the artist who drew some meme describing drawing porn art as whoring?

>>4597355
It trigger stormies now for some reason because they've decided it can only be used by trannies or something.

>>4597353
No, it can't. 'They' is plural.

>>4597355
The correct pronoun to use in case you don't know a person's sex, is 'he'.

>>4596926
Oh man you're gonna waste a few years of your short life and regret it. Let me guess you'll work on a comic and animations and a game too?

>>4596856
I don't care if I die poor and without a house as long as I don't die a degenerate porn artist.

>>4597585
yikes

>>4597585
If the schlock in children's and adult (as in more complicated patterns and illustrations) coloring books and Webtoons is any indication, you can find a way to make money off art, dude. It may require some grind, especially with fundies, but there's no need for this shit, anon.

>>4597562
Stop posting.

>>4597585
Dignity and an empty sack is worth the sack.

>>4597611
How are people making money with webtoons?

>>4596856
Unironically Literally Who???

>>4597259
same, part of me thinks that many of the outliers who achieve big success over night are people who know how to effectively use shady services that generate user engagement, while also having the artistic skill to make potential followers, who are being funnelled toward what their content, believe that they're part of an organic phenomenon, where they're the "active" party discovering the next big thing before anyone else. the game is rigged, and you have to figure out how to cheat to have a break out success.

then again, it could also just be luck and the whims of algorithms.

>>4597748
>le algorithm
>WAH WAH WAH GAME IS RIGGED
>THEY'RE CHEATING

Or, you know, maybe they actually go on discord groups to advertise, have friends who advertise for them, and don't draw like fucking dog shit unike the rest of the artists here?

>>4597353
>>4597355
>>4597672
Yes, I am an ESL and yes, you can use it as a singular pronoun.
Doesn't mean you should, it's jarring to the ears and creates unnecessary ambiguity - haven't you ""people"" had enough with the duality of "you"?

You can go for neutral he, assume the person is female and go for she, or just be the retarded wannabe class rep we've always seen around for decades putting a "he or she" twice on every other sentence of his Big Mac review to remind everyone he respects genders as much as he doesn't respect legibility.

>nooo it's 100% grammatical and has nothing to do with politics, you're just a paranoid /pol/tard!
Ok, let's play Dictionary Screenshot Olympics.

>>4597783
>nooo you can't question whether all the people on top deserve to be on top
>corruption isn't real
>scams aren't real
>stop being jealous and entitled
>stop asking questions
>you must be fun at parties :))
note that the person I was replying to said "There are many other artists that market themselves as well/ just as skilled and this guy got to 143k followers in a years time.", which is why they were confused specifically by the outliers who skyrocket to success for no discernable reason.

>>4597803
>>nooo it's 100% grammatical and has nothing to do with politics, you're just a paranoid /pol/tard!
People have been using they as singular since long before people started thinking about gender bender shit.

Is it not normal with that level of art to have that many followers when drawing porn? I would be surprised if that person had less than 10k or anything like that.

>>4597803
I don't see how using a neutral form to refer to a person when you don't know whether they're a guy or a gal is a progressive sjw position. Even if you interpret it as a political stance, it's still peak centrism.

>>4597810
I like what was said in Bakuman:
In order to succeed you need 3 things:
- Self-delusion;
- Effort;
- Luck.

>>4597819
Yes, but it was still under the flag of "gender equality", so stop thinking about trannies all the time and read the arguments before making a post, yes?

>>4597838
I would have no qualms against it if it didn't add comprehension problems. It's like using "literally" for no reason, emptying the meaning of the word. Fuck you.
This could all have been solved if trannies and women could enter an agreement about the best made-up pronoun, but the derailed pronoun market is a reflection of their grip on any sort of problem-solving.

This person ain’t anything special. It’s not like their fucking Murata or Toriyama. They got pretty lucky and their rolling with it, albeit slightly obnoxiously with how they are acting on Twitter about the whole thing, but getting all that dosh every month for doing w/e you want is exciting.
Basically, they are decent and got lucky and/or have friends in the field. What are ya gonna do? Just grind fundies and learn to be a better and more attractive artist and HOPE the same happens to you. You can factor out the luck a little bit by getting yourself out there and being more proactive, but it’s still mainly luck. Get used to it. Love your craft, not the fame of it. That’s a bonus.

>good for them :333
>happy for them xD
Who the fuck is this and why should I care?

>>4597979
don't you know that you have to be nice to the success fairy so you won't scare it away? it'll come to you one day for sure as long as you're a positive boy!

>>4596856
who?
seriously fuck /ic/, you guys keep posting randoms as if we're supposed to know them, what the fuck is wrong with you

>>4598012
lol thats not how it works but keep being jealous, I'm sure that virtue is doing you big favors

>>4597854
What a retarded thing to get annoyed about

>>4597803
I was taught to use they/them when I don't know the person's gender back in 1998. So I won't stop, regardless of current trends.

>>4597803
Its rude to use he pronouns when you don't know the gender. Such as most men and women don't like the use of sir and ma'am anymore.

the real sad thing is anyone being jealous over $2k a month. lol.

>>4598158
This.

>>4597562
good for he

>>4598157
>Such as most men and women don't like the use of sir and ma'am anymore.
Are we talking about real men and women?

>>4598209
Yes

>T. Wagecuck in customer service

>>4596856
>ThiccWithaQ
>Gelbooru, Danbooru, and Rule34 are all websites with this free art

This art is all based af; no animal shit, just pure human on human action

>>4598372
For now.

>>4596856
>thiccwithaq
>doesn't put a q in thicc
>:(

>>4597803
why are niggers on 4chan so obsessed with starting retarded gay arguments

>>4598632
>on 4chan
you answered your own question

>>4598157
>Its rude
It's rude to assume bad faith on what someone says when he's trying to convey a message that has nothing to do with gender. Shows you're too dumdum to get the point and are trying to undermine the person via alternative methods.

>>4598158
Seems like you just have different priorities. The things I like doing don't cost money, they take a shitton of time, so why should I aim for a well-paid job that eats up all of that time?

>>4597803
>Yes, I am an ESL
Then shut the fuck up, retard.

I do not like it when other people are successful to be honest. Call me a crab, I consider myself garbage anyway. I just hope to make it one day so I can leave behind a proof that I lived before blowing my brains out with a 38

>>4596856
>this kills /ic/
>$692 per month
Pick one.

>>4597353
>>4597355
It can be used if you wanna sound like an ESL or a fucking retard.

>>4599193
Only uneducated monkeys think like this, kid.

>>4596856
>>4596879
I am fairly certain this would put you below poverty line. Not that this isn't good for this guy, but if money is what you're interested in, I'm sure your local grocery stores are hiring for more.

>>4596879
Is this before or after taxes? Seems only liveable if you're in the middle of nowhere.

>>4599224
>>4599226
>Your brain on murrican burgers.

>>4599233
Hey, more power to this guy if this income is livable where he's at. I just assumed they were in the US because the amount was in USD.

>>4599261
Patreon is situated in the US.

More than half of 1st world countries have an average wage slightly above 1k USD per month. No, they aren't shitholes, trust me.
Only the top 1st world countries go above 2k USD/month of minimal wage (USA, Germany, France, Scandinavian countries, etc.).

>>4599224
>>4599233
>>4596879
I'm Australian, what they're making is basically the same as minimum wage after conversion, and patreon takes like a 30% cut after that, all this is doing is reminding me how hopeless a goal of making a living from art is.

>>4599277
Stop spouting bullshit. How old are you? 15? You certainly have the brain of a child.

The number on the patreon page is the net you receive from them. It's the amount after Patreon and the money processors take away their cut.
However you still have to deduct the taxes from it, that's true.

Secondly, you live in a very expensive country.

Read this post and fucking educate yourself, you fucking cangaroo brain.
>>4599267

>>4599294
I'm an idiot for not knowing that Patreon shows earnings after their cut? I've never used it before.

>>4599294
I thought it was the amount before the cut was taken did they change it recently?
