it looks like he might have some sort of comic that was popular? I could probably match him on a technical level, but there are a lot more to someone's appeal than just pretty drawings. It looks like he is a more prolific than I am as well. I don't know what else he has done in the beginning that attracted such large following but there are usually some sort of meme that went viral, he also consistently output that kept his existing audience engaged.

While I have looked into his content that doesn't mean its possible for me to implement it, because there are usual some differences in terms of the type of people that like each artist contents. sometimes its more difficult to consistently come up with ideas that people find interested in than just being able to execute it.

I'll tell you: Im not trying hard enough.
Not only I got a very busy life where I dont have all the time to draw (worsened by the fact Im painfully slow to draw in the first place) but Im also out of focus on the things I could and should be doing: Im yet to fine my storytelling skills, my writing, make a content schedule to stick with and being overall active in social media, I've been on hiatus status since 2021 and rightfully so, Im still finishing my useless design degree, dealing with air conditioners on a literal daily basis and doing the occasional housework.

Im pretty sure if I apply myself, I'll be able to make some progress on my skills, the social media game and also reach the stupid dream of making that light novel for people to enjoy... or at very least make my blondie reach internet waifu status by constantly shilling her.

>>6904368
Anon, I love your stuff and I adore your blondie, you are doubtful about not having something appealing but I've seen you for a while and Im positive that you have what it takes (and a bit more) to get your art out there and success. Maybe all you need is to put your focus on the right place? At any rate I only hope you make it and make it big, your art is amazing.

>also
Didnt we have this thread before? Even the artist and the girl are the exact same. This Tifa x Ryoko looking ass is honestly kind of boring in terms of design, there's not even a color to stand out among all those tones of black and white.

I'm always amazed how coomers are always amazed by, and willing to pay for, the same tired subjects of pornography. Tomboyish aesthetic, bimbo bodies, sling bikinis, always some shit boilerplate edgy or boilerplate ironic humor that only comes from a regularly overstimulated brain that's been taught to neglect imagination. Doesn't it ever spark ingenuity or make boredom? It's amazing how a market with zero innovation or personality (most of the time) continuously attracts new swathes of people while offering them only what they've seen before. And most times, what they can easily see for free.

It is exactly because it is "new" people; it really is kids most of the time, or actual, legit mentally retarded individuals i.e. autistic, down syndrome, aspergers, etcetera.

Could you explain the sheer amazement about any and all even most innocuous coom if not considering what kind of people would consume, treat and interact with coom like that?
If it's not those, it's mostly just genuine role playing perverts and lonely people.

With every fiber of my being, I genuinely, absolutely hate the art of the guy in your picture. He keeps drawing the same vapid subjects over and over like a psychotic dog that keeps returning to its vomit, and the worst part is that he has no motivation to improve. This is unrelated to the topic, but I needed to get this off my chest.
Anyway, picrel is what ~500k followers looks like. Clearly, there's little correlation between quality and success.

>>6904808
Anime and manga too, endless copy/paste stories, most in that same copy/paste style. Just flavor of the month imitations of set tropes with a new coat of paint. Like how the flavorless porn illustrations that get 800k likes are just set tropes with a new coat of paint. Nothing new, nothing that that will ever be remembered, and nothing that really separates it from A-I slop, A-I at least has an excuse. But hikkos an otakus will shun any shadow of life in favor of venerating generic anime girl #1241452564. Until anime girl #345348957 arrives, then it's onto the new idol.

Your style and shapes aren’t as appealing as his, nor is it sexually charged enough to gain coomer appeal even though you have more technical knowledge. Despite that I can see you quickly reaching 10k followers if you wanted if you don’t already have that many.

I'm not sure what I want, since stylization can go in many directions.
I am not off-put by her muscles or manly charactersistics in general, just something about the head shape, I believe.

I THINK making her not a chinlet by adding the contour of the face helps, as well as adding more mass to the bottom of the back of the skull, it generally looks like she doesn't have enough encephalitic mass because of how chunky her lower face is.

And there is a clear difference between sfw and nsfw and where the focus of the viewer shifts.

because thinking in absolutes is what dimwits does
If all birds have wings, it generally means that birds can fly, and the statement i.e. the generalization does not become invalid because flightless birds exists.

The question i presented was to make understand the why something like comics which is generally western, is mostly done in colors and lacking details; capeshit characters are mostly just one shade of color to be easily readable, whereas eastern designs are more complicated and exceptions, don't make the rule.

If you want to argue semantics, why don't you show me which manga are selling in the west?
Is it one piece? Dragonball? Naruto? mha?
All mangas that are more or less not purely eastern?

Calm your tits, Im not discussing about the artist's craft here, Im talking about you fags being the most disingenous and obnoxious people out there for reasons that are petty at best.
You talk about no standards and bad craft, as if only the art that you liked had any artistic merit and was part of the so-called "higher standards". You talk about good art and bad art, but your reasoning for it comes off as disingenous and biased, built upon envy and irrational anger.
>booba art cheap popular me no like
If you had anything insightful to say you would've pointed out something more tangible, like the shading, the composition of the faces, the styling, but no, it's just bad because your asses say so, it seems.
>inb4 "IF YOU DISAGREE-"
Im not calling this artist's art the best thing in the world, but I can certainly see the artistic merit of his craft: His rendering is pleasing and well detailed, the styling is appealing (more so in the faces), his animations are smooth, it's not a master by all means, but it's quite good to be called "terrible".

>Also
The guy who is blurring anything but tits? You're also wrong, faces are one of the most vital aspects in a portrait even in coom art. People dont want to just see tits, they want to see the face behind those tits. Faces and hands are where the viewer gets hooked the most due to these elements being the link for them to connect with the piece.

This doesn't mean anything in the context of the conversation, if it's even true. The original assertion was that westerners "see shapes and colors" based on that they shouldn't have any interest in the manga whether they've seen the anime or not. The MCU didn't do shit for comics sales.

Based on what and can you elaborate on why that work is trash?

You can't compare artist if they're not in the same genre of content, and objectively, the one i posted creates better works, so the numbers don't add up.
Why is the other artist making lower skill works more successful than the other one?
The only noticeable difference is indeed the "render" and the complexity of the artwork itself and has time has shown, normies are suckers for anything that remotely emulates real life lighting.
>people sucking up to artist
This wasn't ever any of my points.

This is the clear point that although one work is better than the other, the general audience, prefers the work with the "render", although being inferior, wich ties to the initial point that westerners generally tend to go for minimal visual information, which manifests itself in bare titties floating in the void, which become the focus of any given artwork like that, hence people generally tend to like such works because of the lewds, not because of the skill.

Liking a picture for the "render" is an excuse made by non-artist who believe art must replicate reality or else it's bad or to just not admit that they like it for the titties.

If "render" would be the ultimate factor upon which is decided if a picture is of "high quality", then try to decipher the mystery of pic related.

i think they don't understand the nature of Teleporte's work at all, he did one short animation everyday for a year, and he kept it interesting both on a technical level and its content. That's one animation a day for 365 days. The rendered artwork is secondary and entirely separate skill in my opinion. Very few independent animator is capable of keeping up with the quality of his animation at that scale of output, even if you think it looks like scribbles and little experimental pieces. animation is one of those things that beg always underestimate how much skill and work it entails.

Funny captions also contribute to how much a tweet explodes. Sex + humor sells

The right pic is more like promo art, it’s not supposed to be super sexual and doesn’t have much vitality potential. It’s also freelance commissioned work (?) which doesn’t get as much attention relatively to non commission art. It’s just a random cool fantasy woman

Yes, there are even better artist on this board who create better works, but somehow don't reach a fraction of those numbers, for some unknown reason, yet many claim the success of those who are that successful to incredibly silly reasons like "having skill" even when it obviously isn't the case.
If we were to single out the why telepurte had this big of a success, it would be a mix of lewds aimed at a younger audience, pandering to the lowest common denominator and having nsfw on his patreon, plus a youtube channel where he makes the sillies to redirect other younger audiences to his other socials, covering multiple potential audiences.
In the end, it's pandering to a rather young audience who doesn't know the difference between an ass and a mouth that are the cause of success to these creators.
The same is true for any of the very big youtubers which content basically boils down to jingling keys.

So, if anyone wanted the secret recipe to "make it" on social media, it's just; "exploit younger audiences and lonely males with lewd content."

It doesn't "work for everyone" because "sex sells" SOMETHING, and you have to have that something in order to sell it.

What would finance his projects is Trigger making kino like it used to and like Gainax used to and everyone buying it up. This horseshit trend they're on of doing character development anime where there is no action like Kiznaiver, which I love, but why are they doing it? Other studios excel at character driven pretty pieces; leave that to them. SSSS Gridman doesn't count because all the action is done in CGI and only the characters are real anime.

Haha its funny you say that because I really do want to do animation above all else, but I have been sinfully lackluster in producing anything of quality this past year.

>How did you get this far self-taught?
It was sort of a tutor teaching me how to be self-taught if that makes sense? He gave me a book that he used in his adolescence to learn, told me to draw references and then compare my drawing the result to train my eye. Thats mostly all that I did for my studying. That along with studying constructive methods for the human body and jump from method to method to eventually create my own amalgamation-method of everything I've learned.
>What did you study and from where?
In this order Gottfried Bammes (extremely well defined forms for beginners) -> Micheal Hampton (lots of constructive details for the human body) -> Bridgman (Only to understand movement and gesture, I would not recommend studying him for anatomy) then vilppu around the same time for the same reason as bridgman, but vilppu has good movement and methodology + anatomy.
>How old are you so I can know how much time I’ve wasted lacking the talent to be you?
21 in about two months. I started when I was 17/18. And a lot of it is about really using your mind when you learn. Never autopilot while learning, and never force yourself to draw for too long periods of time. I only did on average 1-2 hours a day study for that time frame.

And dont be so self-deprecating. I promise you wherever spot you are in now I was there as well. Most I could draw was a box in perspective. My everything-else sucked balls, and you can absolutely get here if you just put in the consistency and dedication. And one final piece of advice is to not get lost in study. Dont forget to reignite your soul with a personal piece however often your heart desires it, anon.

I'm too lazy and shy to really promote myself. I barely show my drawins irl to anyone, and the only place I post my shit is on 4chan and deviantart.
Plus I don't think that I am even really good enough to make money with drawings and I doubt that my brand of autistic worldbuilding is all that interesting to other people.

I didn't realize Kiznaiver was from 2016, wow. I'm stoked for Delicious in Dungeon even though I don't know anything about it other than it has been praised some. It would be nice if Trigger expanded so they could release a new anime with high quality in shorter timeframes. I'd really like to mainline it.

Isn't it just the distribution? KJG drew a lot of pornographic and other graphic content and there are movies with graphic sex scenes that get a pass for being classified as movies.

It is the concrete distribution/sale of obscene/pornographic content that is illegal.
It's basically the Obscene Publication act.
Although, you fags could circumvent that law if instead of just doing porn for the sake of porn, you built around something else, much like some movies did back then in the US/EU.
