Nothing really all that special. No offense intended when I say this - stick to the interesting articles, Artefact, art obviously isn't your forte. These are decent enough to be passed as good to anime fans, but many of these featured artists aren't as creativity talented as you make them out to be, save for a very few.
The other day a commenter was telling me to drop the boring articles and concentrate on posting pictures of naked ladies.
No offense intended when I say this - I would be doing the silent majority a grave disservice if I ever took any notice of a pompous windbag like you.
I should reiterate that I never take any notice of what people say in the comments (except about specific points of fact) - only a tiny minority of people ever offer an opinion and most of those represent polarised extremes. It is just not a reliable sample of opinion.
I'll leave picking apart your risible condemnation to someone else.
I was the guy above who you already commented on. You took offense, though I don't blame you since I did come off as a douche. Saying this again but I'm horrible at writing, so I'm not very tactful especially when I want to give constructive criticism.
That aside, I did mean the last sentence. You are great at writing articles and I check this site out at least twice a day for updates. As a long time reader, I have come to notice over time that we clash dramatically when it comes to artists(minus Geister, Red Juice, Naruko Hanaharu and some others). Coming out of an art college, I guess it's just one thing I can't help but to express since I can't seem to stop myself from clicking on these articles.
Anyways, no offense and sarcasm intended.
tl;dr - I'm a douche, I like your articles, I'm an elitist, etc.
You did come off as being highly obnoxious.
Let me be blunt and say that the artists are picked as much on their ability to appeal to the audience as their actual talent - there are some fantastic artists around whose works I would freely overlook as just not being likely to appeal widely.
These highlights just aren't intended as appraisals of classical artistic talent in anime (which I personally greatly respect in the form of Hiroaki Samura and the like), and as you must be aware many of these talented artists have terrible shortcomings with things like anatomy thanks to tracing photos or what have you. Personally I prefer to look past these as many do improve.
However, someone who happens to draw a character of the moment or have only a few striking images might feature alongside big names - as I see it I am trying to provide variety and appeal, not just rarefied talent.
>These are decent enough to be passed as good to anime fans
>complaining about weeaboos liking weeaboo art on a weeaboo website
freaking awesome.
I'll tell you what a girl can do with 3 swords... Muahahahaha...
primero ajua
I expected a trap squeezed in somewhere, and now i'm kinda disappointed. Not by the gallery though, nice illustrations *thumbs up*
#20 that tight ass...drools
meganekko ftw
so much moe, so little time
Gosh i love girls with glasses sooooo much...
awesome artist and those are some nice artworks.
Arte, thank you for a fappalicious meganekko treat.
yea sukumizu!
25 & 26 are pretty nice. Mmm...
Damn it. I failed my non-fapathon
I fapped to the Youmu pics!
Wow, my hero
Oh, he is one of the illustrator fo Waffle. He really has the gift in drawing mizugi...
actually... where is this initial picture from - the closeup ? i looked at pic 006 which looks like it's the one but the resolution wouldn't allow doing something like that?
yummy
most of it
Very interesting artwork indeed. Youmu <3
I've seen better
It's really sad how you get rated down so much just for stating your opinion as if it was offensive in anyway. The artworks ARE pretty much the same, and while he applies his own "style" decently, I can't help but to think that he's an one trick pony.
I've looked at some of his works over a year ago when I first saw the Yuyuko suzumizu picture and was excited to see how he would apply the coloring used on the sukumizu for his overall porfolio. I was, however, disappointed that his other works were composed of generic burn-tool centric HCG colorings and he pretty much used the shiny coloring technique on sukumizus and sukumizu-like clothings.
Then again, this is SanCon; I don't expect everyone to be an art critic but I, repeating what I said before, think that it is a shame to see people getting rated down for stating a legit and non-troll opinion. I expect the same thing to happen to this post as well but I guess that in itself would just prove my point further.
I think the issue is in how the poster stated his opinion - he offered no reasons or critique, just an idiotic and obnoxious statement.
Unless you think the artist to be the very best, you will have seen better. Does that prevent you enjoying the shiny sukumizu here though?
The first guy probably got it coming, I understand that. However, the second comment was also rated down to hell:
"seconded. Half of the pictures are just the same with different accesoires..."
Maybe I'm a little biased here because I share the same outlook as this guy so correct me if I am indeed being biased but I don't see how that was idiotic and/or obnoxious(other than the obvious spelling mistake).
About the artist himself: I already posted my own two cents below(albeit in a smug way, since I'm not really good at writing at all).
Not really a valid criticism - I could have left them out, but thought instead to leave them in for those who might be interested. So in that respect, it is my "fault" that he appears to be overusing layers. Also I don't see what is wrong with artists releasing some WIPs or variations.
The art is cute but to generic. After being exposed to guys Oh! great and Izayoi Seishin this art dosnt excite me any more.
I don't think the shota magazines that you read count as "better".
You should widen your gaze.
seconded. Half of the pictures are just the same with different accesoires...
#12. 1 sword is a timeless classic.
2 swords is still okay, your sword got lonely sometimes, and now it has a friend.
But when you have 3 swords, you... start to become that "weird girl that's got all those swords".
Of course, with glasses that size, she's probably always losing them.
I wonder what the hell that third sword is.
Two swords, as in daishou, at least has the bonus of historical practicality.
You never saw One-Piece?
We all know what you can do with a 3rd one..
I was two seconds from dropping a "That's Youmu you idiots!"
I'm a visual thinker...
This is what I call talent.
Pure Amazing! He seems to be really into meganekko too~ <3
Damn.. this is just... damn
Sukumizu banzai
Great artist, those sukumizu seem very smooth
So smooth, they slid nicely onto my HDD.
nnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggggggggggg
OM FUCKING NOM NOM
HNNNNNNNNNGGGGGGG+
the shine perfects this.
Wow excellent artist indeed.
Can someone list who the chara are? I only recognize Asuka...: thanks?
I can say with confident say that the twin blade girl with a ghost swirling around her is Youmu Konpaku.
Wow, excellent brushwork :) Love it!
these are seriously awesome. top notch stuff. love those glossy surfaces. 025 reminds me of nadeko a bit.
Beautiful illustrations, colors are soft and smooth ♥
Canadane approves
In the main top picture i see a bottlenosed dolphin swimming - nose is obvious. Its inside the body.
Hey Nin, you can suck my spanish balls ;D
Well damn. Another artist to look up to.
Jesus this guy can't draw torsos. What the fuck is wrong with the girl's body in the first series?
dood as long as the vulva takes 1/3 of the body - how can you complain ?
I'm not sure you know what a vulva is...
You're still wrong, why would the mons pubis take a third of a girl's body
I don't see it taking 1/3 of her body. You're probably interpreting her curves in a weird way. To me it just looks as if she has gargantuan hips and a tiny ribcage. You forgot to take the extreme angle of her hips in mind, didn't you? She's bending her back a lot, which while may look pretty, probably is highly unnatural for someone with her build: She has a very... Not exactly flat, but thin ass. Normally that kind of curve is achieved with a bigger ass that actually extends a bit from the girl's legs, while as hers barely stand out from her legs. Also, the glossy lines seem exaggerated to bring attention to her lower body, e.g. her navel area as well as lower abdomen and vulva
couldn't find a better english word for it. is there actually ?
ok actually someone suggested the term "mont pubis". my apologies.
Did she wet herself in the first pic?
No, it's sweat!
More like drips of pool water to me..
