Elsa is loving weird tbh


I don't know why I'm working a loving sketch so hard when all this will be gone when I line and color. there's no reason for me to do this!

E: Swamp Waste I'm doing alot more 3D poo poo these days cuz I got big things that need finished. I just did decide to take some time to draw a little bit.

Actually, something interesting came of that!


Someone offered to 3D print the Melissa model and give it working joints for basically free, so this was the result. rather rough, but not bad for a first go, and I'm suprised that it manages like 24 points of articulation AND really good motion range! I always wanted to be a toy designer, I guess it paid off!

Maybe I'm just unfamiliar with the source material, but I gotta be honest, it looks like there's a massive dick jutting out of her pubic bone.

Zone of the Enders, the designers made those the place where the pilot rides. it's pretty much exclusively for COCKpit jokes but only one of the animated series ever pokes fun at it.

just a cool and normal guy here. what's that? oh it's just my massive portfolio filled with robot labia drenched in cum. just normal art stuff.

I never claim to be normal but I'm respectful and don't go around unsolicited telling people they're hot or defining my existence by running a porn site

It's weird you act like the body of my work somehow defines who i am as a person. you don't know me.

To be fair, for a lot of people their art is personal, and often reflects what kind of people they are. This being the art thread, the only thing we see and know of you is what you post, and drat if that isn't a lot of robo titties.

I don't see what that would even tell of me other than I really liked toy robots as a kid and that interest went awry somewhere down the line.
Could someone explain what they see from what I draw? Cuz I don't get the big deal here, I think people are reading way more into this than the mostly surface level thing it is.

I don't know what to say that doesn't end with me talking about the fact I've been hired on projects for my understanding of robot stuff or how people I show my work to IRL rather like it (not that I show them everything) so I'm just gonna concede that frankly, this place is just not the right place.

I will however stand by the fact that i think this is silly though.

are you showing your art at robot loving conventions because that might explain them liking it

The art association here really liked my work, and they're a bunch of old people! Hell, this is Georgia, it's nerd central all over the state at this point. There's ten year old kids that know what 'Tsundere' means and I feel incredibly old when I think about that!
Like I have artists friends that 'get it', I have non artist friends that 'get it', and they like it even if they don't always understand it, cuz I put work in to make my stuff look good. I have a girlfriend that wanted me to make her a robot girl character. You don't have to think about it as hard as you do, and frankly you can't see any varying degree to the subject matter. it all may as well be porn to you, the way you act. Which by and large, I haven't actually drawn much of at all. the things you harp on are like... mostly base level erotica or pinups at best

No-one's questioning your ability to draw mechs, we're questioning why you keep sticking tits on them.

Tits are fun. Robots are fun. Combine the two and you have the Transformers franchise. (a bad series but we need an anology here)

Here, have something that's also fun from sometime last year. it's not that interesting though.

They're bad unused designs for a game though. Mechanical design change came up so all the robots will have arms come off the side of the 'shoulder pad'.

It's just jacky-offy, it's "tits are fun, for me, the guy on the other side of the picture plane." You already get that it's not about how explicit or polite it is. It's sex without personality, context, reciprocity, without even desire unless you count the audience. "Objectification" i guess but usually if someone's using that word it's for an audience they think knows and agrees already.

I think it's just like, if a woman has had to deal with impersonal male desire for her body alot, or even not a lot but enough to see a pattern, this treatment of sex in art may start to give her a super bad vibe-- one that she recognizes from real experiences that were frustrating or humiliating or scary. It starts to say "PUSHY BONER GUY INCOMING," and if you don't heed that and you give ppl the benefit of the doubt, maybe someone who renders 3D models of disney princess pussy takes it as an invitation to send you creepy PMs.

It's hard to explain and it's hard to critique without getting personal, because it kinda is personal. My life just doesnt involve a lot of come-ons from dudes who don't care what i want except that they might get pissed about it. I doubt yours does either.

I really wanna see a video of you showing this stuff to a bunch of old hippies though.

I'm trying to understand what you're saying here but i don't quite get it.
I mean, aside from the obvious jab at Elsa which gonna be honest more I get to know him the less I want to do with him, which he's been getting bad plenty enough.

Anything I could say (experiences, conversations with other artists and women, the artist lady who directly got me into drawing hot robots) would be brushed off as anecdotal. I just don't get it. I don't think it makes sense to react as things being so harsh, especially since i have no interest in objectifying persons, stalking, or any other things that could be seen. I can't be held accountable for other's actions, and I won't be blamed for other people's lovely behavior. I just draw for simple, idiot person reasons!

Ehhhh. I'm extremely skeptical that your game director had pure and non-fap related reasons for wanting the "perfect robot rear end". Like how could you spin that as essential for their deep and meaningful characterization? Like if your going for sex appeal or whatever that's fine but it seems really disingenuous to claim it's anything but. At least be honest about it.

Let's be reminded that Skullgirls was largely directed artistically by a lady and is almost exclusively wank material as well.

guys I already said that I get this isn't the place. frankly though this site is stuck in it's old ways so it's not suprising. That, however, is in one giant contradiction of things, but no need to stew on the matter.
But honestly, if I were totally sincere and actually wrote down even a quarter of my ideas, I don't make alot of 'fap material', I just make things that are fun to me. What is expected of my work based on a few pieces isn't always the same as the other. I shouldn't have to explain that but that's how things seem to go. This is why people I meet IRL don't have an issue 'getting' my work, because most of the time it's clear when I take a different approach.

I just wanna make toy robots with cool gimmicks. but i like writing stories for my dumb toy robots. I just don't care to post paragraphs of poo poo about things here because it'd ultimately read like a book report and no one would like it.

It's like if some guy says to you, "You know, I think sheep are really sexy, I want to have sex with a sheep, "and then two days later he comes to you and says, "Hey man, I bought a sheep farm - nothing sexual though, just made good economic sense. Come visit my sheep farm and give me some feedback on all the sheep I am now responsible for, in a purely economic non-sexual sense!"

Likewise every time you post a big titty robot, no matter how non-explicit or innocent it may seem, it's all filtered through the lens of your previous posts of the exact same big titty robot spreading her labia, and your fanart of some weird big-titty-sex-bot-fanfic-tumblr, and all your posts talking about how much you love big titty sex robots and how you don't care who knows you want to gently caress robots with big titties. Like, if you don't want to be known as a big titty robot fucker stop posting big titty robots.

Your inability to understand why we view your postings of innocent big-boobed robots as connected to the sexually explicit big-boobed robots you posted is what creeps people out and makes them assume you are a socially inept creepy person.

You really, really gotta get in that last word don't you?
You don't get what i'm trying to say so I won't bother, aside from saying I haven't drawn the super offensive one in ages and really only ever posted it because troposphere is such a over-reactive baby over things that were even more innocuous than my own.

Our DnD campaign didn't happen tonight but we're all artists so we decided to make How To Draw Manga book covers. I somehow ended up over in Leifeld territory by the end of it.

Oof... I hope the Sailor Moon thing is a joke. Sorry to be a negative nancy but this seems like trolling. Maybe not ... but ... mentioning Manga and Leifeld in the same post. Ugh.

I feel like I'm reading something translated from another language because I have no idea what you're trying to say. Is it that you don't get the joke? Maybe you should phrase what you're saying better.

Basically, in the late 90s and early 2000s, the era of "How To Draw Anime/Manga" books written by out of touch white dudes and the one time scholastic hired a 13 year old to do a how to draw book.
The worst of these was Peter Gray.


So each of us drew our own version but we'd put a spin on it, and since the GM said something about needing a thick neck I looked up Leifeld pictures and did his horrible muscle definition.

For content, here's a thing from months ago where I was brainstorming for the design of the MC in my game, complete with my reference images and other garbage scribbles.


This of course lead to what I think is PROBABLY the best piece of pixel art I've ever made.

Working on a possible animation pilot for an idea I've fallen in love with. Storyboarding ideas and working out how the characters will look next to each other. Super enjoying how for once the ideas in my head are coming out like intended, especially the creepy mouth shots.
At the very least it's a fun diversion while i try to heal my right hand. desperately need a new job that doesn't strain it so much.

I'm working on this promo image for the Strega project, and this may very well be the most complex piece I've ever attempted. I'm so excited that I'm getting really focused between two projects and see myself actually making headway on them. I hope that when this is done I can use this to drum up interest in my work, especially once I get more storyboarding done.

I've been busy.
The last one i'm working on making into a T-Shirt. trying to get them done at a local place for convenience sake and being able to get better profit margins hopefully.
The test didn't go so hot because the first place I tried had a wonky printer that can't do blacks.



This is only a little bit of what I did over last year. I got good at doing basically everything now that I'm doing art full-time as a freelancer.
