>This art is able to sell on Amazon and make moneyWhat's your excuse, anon?
>>7399963>What's your excuse, anon?posting bad art feels like someone chopping my balls off and hitting me with hammers
The majority of books on amazon sell zero copies.
>>73999638k raised on kickstarter lol wagmi
>>7399969Not really. I sold a book on amazon before......only 2 people bought it and I sold it for like 10 cents. But I put like zero effort into the book. It was just a remix of what I said on 4chan.
>>7399967I mean, you had bottom surgery once so a few more times can't be too bad
>>7399963From the thumbnail I thought it said megatits at firstDisappointing
>>7399963>>7399972>460 backers pledged $17,119HOW??????? Who is that Tyler guy? WTF?
>>7400273I bet anything this guy is ugly as sin irl
>The Girl With The MEGA TITS
>>7400273I've seen tons of hyper niche VNs/webcomics/etc make similar money. If you actually show up and put in the work and put out a product, people will pay.Find a niche fetish to cater to and you're even more set.
>>7400325a niche fetish like megatits
>>7400273hes a brownoid on social media "networking" (aka back room discords and stream rooms that collude together instead of actually doing any work; attack people they hate/dont work with them, all have to buy from each others campaigns or blackballed, etc). this is quite common in the indie comics scene. its more like retarded sjw highschoolers than actual talent based industry. most spend entire life on social media and shit talking and backstabbing in chat rooms than producing anything.
>>7399963I have many excuse
>>7399963I just saw a vid of him bc it got recommended to me yesterday saying how he quit trying to make it as a full time comic book author/artist, that was one of his first works and the art has gotten better from the first volume. I believe his full time job is in marketing and sales so it adds up. he made a 100k in revenue from all his comics in one of his successful years but the actual profit was near breakeven since he would just use the money to cover for the product cost. he was mainly an author in most of his successful works I believe and hired other artists to work on the actual drawing.
Another thread where anons are mad or jealous at an artist they dont know, didn't know about before this thread and will forget about in a months time.
>>7399963I'm not jewish.If I could blatantly scam people like this I would be an insurance executive anyway.
>>7399963Are you saying that art is bad or something? Anyhow my excuse is that I'm cursed.
>>7399995yes daddy *mwah on your tongue*
>>7399963it looks like ass but the author delivers and is very dedicated. I started working on a comic just this year and I was surprised how much interest in the medium there still is. It's small of course, but keeping costs in mind it's doing better than western animation still
>>7400273>HOW??????????instead of complaining about stupid shit all day he draws and posts his work. /ic/ could never.
>>7400608I tried. It's got 0 views across the "board".You have to be dumb enough to advertise it.I'm too self-aware and I'm not going to advertise a bad product into selling a ton just because it had a good premise.I have to be satisfied with it first. And it's not gonna happen.Luckily art is like the 4th thing I do. The other three are light years closer to satisfaction than drawing.
>>7399963>comicProbably he most of his time learning how to write a very compelling story, something I know nothing about.
>>7399963money laundering
>>7400667Yeah, I'm sure mafia and filthy rich have no better options than to launder money with unpopular $30 comics.
>>7400334It's not that i don't find this plausible, everything around art is fake and gay, but what's the basis of your claims?
>>7400284>successful artist>h-he's uglyholy shit man this is a new level of cope even for /ic/. I'm thinking about you right now and seeing he managed to raise $17,000 and the thing I decide to poke at his his IRL looks?
>>7400284Men with beards should never draw themselves in this style
>>7399972>>7400273these numbers aren’t even high and considering he’s good at marketing and posts regularly, if he has a half decent story, they aren’t unreasonable at all. just use him as a goal to reach for, if you want to do a Kickstarter comic surely this would inspire you
>>7399963Those faces are straight out of that "How to draw manga" book
>>7399963If that's trash to you then it's over for me
>>7400689>successful
>>7399963Blondies are the choice of the fine men.OP, are you going to post more of this Samus Aran looking ass chick or what.
>>7400829Is that his work now?
>>7400684More like small time drug dealerLook it's more plausible than some niche community of donors noone's ever heard of magically manifesting to worship some no name faggot slop artistIf there existed an audience with such bad tast they'd be lapping up AI slop by now lmao
>>7400939Have you considered the possibility that you haven't heard of such a community because it's niche? Have you considered the possibility that not everything you haven't heard of until now "magically manifested" into existence the moment you discovered it?The internet's a big place with lots of loud voices. You don't hear about every single modestly successful kickstarter project. Why the hell would you?
> bad artWhy are you shitting on the art? It more style to it than most DC/marvel comicsIt's obviously Eastern influenced, but that's because it's easier to create. Idk. It kinda rubs me the wrong way when people shit on others art. Crab bucket mentality if you ask me.
>>7401238>/ic/ - Artwork/Critique>nooooooooo don't critique artwork!!!!It's objectively bad. You can tell what the artist was attempting to draw, and can see very clearly where they fell short.
>>7401238>Idk. It kinda rubs me the wrong way when people shit on others art. Crab bucket mentality if you ask me.Thankfully nobody asked you, because that's a genuinely retarded take.
>>7400686He got exposed by other YouTubers sharing leaked dms between him and other bitter, hateful and pathetic indie comic “creators” and he then cries about it on his gay YouTube channel
>>7400835No, he hires superior artists for the covers with majority of his crowdfunding money. The insides are still drawn like a 5th grader.
>>7401246Yeah, but the drawing does plenty of things right. The breasts look nice. The arm anatomy isn’t half bad. The midsection looks good, as does the mechanical fist of the female character. The character’s hair is well placed, the body is realistically shaded, and the composition is actually pretty decent. Critique doesn’t equate to “find everything wrong with the piece and fixate only on that.” This isn’t necessarily “bad” art, it’s just art with a long way to go and plenty of potential.
>>7401514lol you suck tyler. You’re 40, go get a real job and take care of your mutt
>>7401500imma need some sauce with those fries, fampaii dont even know who that fag is
>>7399963How come the eyes are flat while everything else have a bit of depth?It's drawn like picrel.
>>7400835>Is that his work now?No, he hires other artists to do the work for him.
>>7401563It’s super pathetic that people on this website think that if you have something positive to say about a piece of work, you must be the artist themselves. The crab mentality runs deep.
>>7401976because strangers don't typically come to the defense of a random artist's shitty /beg/ drawing on an anonymous board. His art looks exactly like what someone that browses this website would make.
>>7401238>It kinda rubs me the wrong way when people shit on others art. Crab bucket mentality if you ask me.Sounds like you're taking it personal. Does your work look like his?
>>7401981Well sorry to burst your bubble, but I don’t give a fuck about what’s “typical” on 4chan. I came to his defense because I grow tired of the absolutist perspective that people on this website view art with. It’s either “beg”, “int”, this that and the third. It’s exhausting. It’s like you guys have no other words in your repertoire besides “beg”, and it’s actually fucking pathetic. You think calling drawings “beg” over and over and saying the bare minimum of what it does wrong makes you some enlightened critic, yet you won’t actually break it down and look at it from a deeper, more analytical way.
>>7401990>>7401981Let me also add, I know good and well not a single soul shitting on this artist will post their work.
>>7402152You need a break from the internet, friend.
>>7402160>not a single soul shitting on this artist will post their work.because no one wants their artwork to be associated with shitting on another artist. that's kind of the whole point of 4chan being anonymous. you can speak your mind without worry of some faggot like (you) getting butthurt and trying to ruin your life over things you said on a website. shading is bad, choice of colors is bad, anatomy is bad, stylization is bad, literally everything is bad. He was going for something like >>7400829but doesn't have the ability to pull it off himself. I'm not sure what else to tell you.
>>7402250Nobodies life is being ruined you fucking faggot, my point is that you can’t call criticism pointing out what’s exclusively bad. You say I’m getting butthurt yet here your faggot fuck ass is typing out motherfucking paragraphs just to prove a point. Go fuck yourself with a pitchfork, you faggot fuck.
>>7402250The shading isn’t bad. The anatomy isn’t even bad. The colors aren’t half bad. I disagree with you, and if you find that offensive, you can suck the meat off my dick you piece of shit. Fuck you.
>>7402160Because we all know the endgame is just to get someone to post their work i.e. show anything that can be attacked, to insult them, like every other faggot on the internet now does.>"oh, you breathe air? hehe you're CRINGE!! fucking gottem!! are u mad? omg u seethe and mad!! imagine breathing air in current year! kys!"You retards don't even notice that by constantly doing this shit en masse, you're killing off any options to have any type of discussions, which only benefits shitty faggots that want to scam and not be criticized or called out in any manner whatsoever.In the end, demanding for posting work is this>either the fag getting criticized wants to "get back" at whoever dared not make him feel heckin valid>just epic troll #464546541654 wanting to hurl insultsYeah, you want no one to ever dare not see your mistakes so you can make MONEY? yeah, good luck with never being able to make better work or think critically and then make shit no one will buy and no one will ever say anything that could help you make it better.You will actually just get the opposite of retards saying you the wrong things on purpose because you aren't socially allowed to ever say any truth.
>>7402761>Because we all know the endgame is just to get someone to post their work i.e. show anything that can be attacked, to insult them, like every other faggot on the internet now does.Lurk moar, faggot.There were PLENTY of cases when, after seeing someone's work, anons admitted they were mistaken or in the wrong or actually praised that work. You're just making up scenarios in your head to justify your shitty behavior.
>>7399963how many times must I tell you retards the art doesn't matter as much as the story? Have you ever seen a diary of a wimpy kid book?
>>7402271You sound really mad honestly
>>7399963>What's your excuse, anon?Working way more than 40 hrs/week. I'm taking a short break (less than 60 seconds) from work right now.
>>7403134You're doing the exact same thing i pointed out>faggot just replies tells you you're wrong but actually just wants to hurl insultsYou should genuinely consider suicide since all copypasted epic niggers like you are fucking shit up for everyone else.Just genuinely kill yourself. I'm not even trying to insult you. Do it nigger.
>>7403134>There were PLENTY of cases when, after seeing someone's work, anons admitted they were mistaken or in the wrong or actually praised that work.According to who? you?>You're just making up scenarios in your head ironic
>>7402152ur so mad lole XDDDD
>>7403139>Have you ever seen a diary of a wimpy kid book?
Jesus Christ, what's with the sperg rage in this thread? Did the artist stumble across it and get mad?
>>7403139Manny is one of the funniest drawings ever penned, ploopy.
>>7399963People that want to make money are going to make money. Art quality has nothing to do with it. If this person wasn't drawing comics they would be doing something else art related and still making money from their work.
>>7400284lmao.
The style may be terrible, but the artist still puts in the work. I have style but no work ethic.
>>7402152No one’s really calling it “beg”, we’re calling it absolute shit by an aged-out, over-the-hill amateur too deep in his desperate attempt to be a competent comic creator, a man in his late 40s drawing “anime” who needs a wake up call because his family and online friends humor his “passion” that’s going nowhere and he spends more and more hoping to break even like a gambling addict getting deeper in a hole and he’s scrambling as his scam is catching up to him, wrapped in a childish boobie-artist cover by a much superior artist. Hope that helps.
>>7406846>a man in his late 40s drawing “anime” who needs a wake up call because his family and online friends humor his “passion” that’s going nowhere and he spends more and more hoping to break even like a gambling addict getting deeper in a hole and he’s scrambling as his scam is catching up to himbut didnt his kickstarter succeed , seems to me he's already past the "break even" phase
>>7400736Men should never draw themselves full stop
>>7407512if he lives anywhere but america he makes a pretty decent living
>>7407790Or Canada, or Australia, or most of Europe...
>>7399963okay, put the money aside, how would you fix the drawing to make it more anime like? at least that's my impression from the eyes art style feels like but the artist couldn't achieve it (yet).
>>7407927Give the hair more volume, fix the placement of the features on the face and just generally give it more of a sense of form. The issue here is less the style and more just the poor drawing skill on display.
He's an intermediate level artist, what's the issue? Do you have to be advanced in drawing to make money from art or something lol
first campaign go 1.5k with 40 backers and second raised 15k with 400 backers 1 yr later. theres a notable improvement in his art and paneling in the second ones previews not really unreasonable desu
>>7407532except if your hot
>>7407940>intermediate
>>7400284>>7405058Why do fat wetbacks draw them selves as pretty white Spanish anime boys?
>>7400667>>7400939should've laundering be more likely with AI slop tho?
>>7408946I dunno but they're complete faggots compared to Gokufags who draw themselves in Toriyama style
>>7407927
>>7409144>>7407936These are nice but he said anime…
>>7408946Animefags can only draw Little Girl FaceFor males they just add a beard to it, so it looks retarded
>>7409152And that's what I gave him. Problem?
