How do you make sure that what you draw has appeal?
>>8023787is that a genuine style? it feels like they went out of their way to fuck it up. like getting a 0% on a multiple choice test.
If I've cultivated a half decent sense of taste, I should be able to tell if my own work is decent or not.
>>8023788it's obvious satire, assburger friend
>>8023818NTA but I've seen similar stuff that was intended to be like thatThere's people out there who genuinely seem to reject beauty in favor of drawing the ugliest fucking shit and screeching at people about anime
>>8023788Getting a zero on a scantron takes skill or luck.I think this troon has genuine talent to make them so unappealing
>>8023818theres multiple artists who got shit on en masse in the past few months for not drawing the ddlc girls as cute as they are in the game. this is the other artists work and i think its much better than OPs picrel and it doesnt deserve the hate but people still dont like it i just realised i sound like im the artist who drew it just shilling my shit but im not them i swear!!!!
>>8023787I feel bad for this person, to be honest. They probably misjudged their skill and were unable to see the mistakes they made and they wanted to share their art. And now, lots of people are reposting it just to make fun of it. At the end of the day, being made fun of on the internet isn't that big of a deal, but I imagine that this whole situation could be a bit nightmarish, especialy if this is the most attention they ever got on the internet.
>>8023848i dont see any major mistakes thoughever. it looks like the artist tried to make them ugly. for the bottom middle one it looks like he used "old japanese man with bad skin" as a reference then put a wig on it. its like they tried to make it look like a wig too
>>8023818I thought so too, but no, she's just drawing them to look like her, ie south asianpicrel is ryan gosling
>>8023818the artist was saying that it was intended to look like that, saying that teenage girls with depression are suposted to look like that
>>8023844cute but fuck you if you're shilling your art
>>8023869i swear im not it does genuinely just look cuter than the other one
>>8023870monika is def very cute but sayori kind of looks like a tranny with the long face
>>8023874yea ive seen others say that too but i think shes cute
>>8023787>>8023874nigger that is a gay man cosplaying doki doki characters
>>8023879doki what?
>>8023787>Monika looks ripped straight out of a tumblr "fix">the rest look diseased, dying even>MC consistently avoids this fate because they hate him (he gets in the way of the yuribait)Why do women worship ugliness?
>>8023844They genuinely look like dudes wearing wigs
>>8023844>>8023787This frequently keeps happening with DDLC art because for whatever reason the game attracts an absurd amount of amateur artists who jump into the trend of making manga-style characters resemble real people despite not having enough experience with drawing real people or having the common sense to realize manga-style characters are EXAGGERATED depictions of people so you'd have to carefully work backwards to make a character from a VN or a manga look believable in a naturalist context and not like a cosplayer.
>>8023917It has less to do with "worshipping ugliness" and more to do with how female artists generally tend to suffer from very specific poor art habits. >drawing manga/cartoons but not drawing from life enough>drawing from life TOO much but wanting to draw manga/cartoons and yet doesn't draw them enough>being uncomfortable with drawing certain parts of the body to the point of not studying it enough>same face syndrome/drawing everyone with her facial features>being a huge renderfag instead of focusing on drawing skills>doesn't have a wide array of influences to draw from in order to maximize appeal>>8023787Copy from appealing art and study all sorts of appealing art.
>>8023787It’s a fucking parody, but the nervous cucktakus are triggered, nice
>>8023985>>8023787>>8023844I find it a little funny how out of all of these, monika looks the most decent.
>>8023868Don't worry, he knows.Leftists shit out lies to defend anything ugly.It's a default setting they have.
>>8024000Huh, you raise some good points. Like they want to have their cake and eat it too and it results in this uncanny, garish blend. The same artist drew this >>8023866 and since it's a portrait of an IRL male, it doesn't look nearly as appaling.>>8023985>for whatever reasonIt's baby's first VN, cutegore/teens suffering fiction, safe for ironic weebs and legit anime haters who think the tropes being lightly poked fun at are problematic, and since DDLC+, also therapy session yuri. Since the barrier of entry went from low to non-existent with the mobile port there's been this wave of performative himejoshi who treat Plus like feminist media (like the last two artists to get put in blast for their ugly art are otherwise fujos, who draw nothing but men, and hate the one boy in the game, it's really funny). It reminds me of the Steven Universe days when fans of all orientations gassed up their lesbian rocks to do an activism
>>8024156That's another good point. Some female artists draw NOTHING but men and they end up unable to draw women properly, and vice versa.
>>8023876thats a man
moon over june esque
>>8023787I read that the artist was trying to represent their mental disabilities, physically.But the chick on the right iirc is malnourished yet for some reason her face looks fat.
>>8024156>>8023844Dylan Klebold ass nose. No, but seriously, these look like men in wigs.
>>8023818Idk. Women love drawing ugliness these days.
>>8023844Neither of these are good.
we should take things they made that lacks appeal and redraw them to add appeal
>>8023844they look like the beatles in drag
>md5 reverse the image on all boards>/v/
>>8023844I'd call them ugly, but if I'm being honest I'd find them cute if they were real people I knew
>>8023844Might be because they look like ugly white girls in wigs
>>8023787You can't quantify appeal. You can only determine if your art has mainstream appeal by how popular it is. That's the only metric.From a purely analytic standpoint, all you can do is try to improve the technical aspects of your art. Fundamental skills can be quantified.
>>8024004What makes you think it's a parody?
