I mean she's saying Muslims have no culture of their own so all they can do is trace over American comic books. Inventing new racist tropes in the course of trying to come up with a defense of being a poo poo.

There's like a poo poo ton of Muslims creating original art without tracing that are successful. Most of them have probably had setbacks because of that, but they don't loving trace.

Why the gently caress is she talking about Disney? Tank Girl was indie, eventually acquired by DC.
There's another side-by-side I didn't post, showing her tracing a still from The Little Mermaid.

There was also something about her using the n-word in her (now closed) yoga studio, but I think the screencaps are gone. Her self-promotion page explains that she's working on two albums, one based on "Hindu spirituals" based on her experience in Transcendental Meditation.

Its kind of hilarious that the NFT scammer is acting like she is representing all women and all muslims at the event by saying that she is the only one there meaning she either has no idea who the other guests are or does and just choses to ignore that she isn't the only muslim woman there.

Greg Land does it because it's easy and he's never late on a deadline. When he's asked to draw something he can't trace he's pretty good.

So, the Toronto Art Comics Festival is a free convention for comics artists,. This year, one of their featured artists is PINKCATNFT, who hawks herself as a comics artist and an NFT producer.
It's really hard to communicate just how massive a shitshow this is. NYT bestseller Ngozi Ukazu, a major get for literally any con, announced she's boycotting the show. Spike Trotman of Iron Circus is on the full warpath, and a wide swath of comic powerhouses are demanding resignations. This all exploded within the past 24 hours.

It would help if the art wasn’t loving terrible. A competent artist doing metacommentary by tracing some specific iconic work to critique it or some larger social trend would be effective. Being good enough to make it clear that this is a deliberate choice is what’s important for that. This is just “what if other work but my own instead?”

Wally Wood encouraged it. (If you couldn't draw it yourself.)

And also just cutting out a picture and pasting it into your comic if it came to that.

Yes, but he always thinks he won't get caught and people will assume he came up with whatever he is tweeting out. But every time he gets caught and throws a fit about it.
