#and no respect for the artist behind it
Text
This is your casual but very pointed reminder - with the potential of Twitter going down floating around in the air - that reposting people's artwork without their explicit permission is unacceptable.
Yes, even if the account with all their art has been deleted.
Yes, even if you really liked it.
Yes, even if you think they wouldn't care.
Yes, even if you 'just want to share.'
Artists are the ones that decide where their art ends up. If the artist wants to get a Tumblr and repost their artwork here, that's their choice. If they choose never to post those old works again, that's also their choice.
YOU SHOULD NOT MAKE THAT CHOICE FOR THEM.
People choose to delete their art, or choose where that art is or isn't posted, for all kinds of reasons. If you want to save artwork then save it for yourself, share it with friends in private chats. Do not repost it on Tumblr.
Do not repost people's artwork without explicit consent. Period.
#Twitter#Artists#Tumblr#Reposting is for assholes#with no respect for the work put into the art#and no respect for the artist behind it#Don't be one of those assholes

Hey!! This is just a message to all of the people on your blog…..
LISTEN UP SHITHEADS. Cin is being nice enough to accept requests from you guys. She’s taking the time out of her day to draw stuff for you guys FOR FREE. She’s not getting any payback for her labor except for a few compliments and internet attention. No money. No treats. No nothing. The least you guys can do is respect her and read her boundaries. If you aren’t going to respect her then you don’t deserve to get free art in the first place. Spamming her with requests isn’t going to change her mind if you’re requesting something she already stated she wasn’t going to draw. All you’re getting yourself is a big wide opportunity for her to block you.
Respect my little sister. I don’t care if you hate on me for being a rude, harsh bastard. I will not tolerate anyone being an asshole to her.
thank u sm bro.. i really hate blocking people but i literally have no choice when ppl keep like !!! bothering me!!!!???
i dont want to have to stop taking requests altogether but it doesnt take that long to just click the 'keep reading' and skim the top few words!!!
thank you to everyone who does read it i appreciate u guys sm and im hugging u (if thats ok if not then im fist bumping u)
#for real thank u :c#im not very good at being assertive#mmnfkldjh like bro.. idk ab u guys but?? when i send art requests im like#checking everything ??? making sure theyre taking requests and if they have any specific boundaries i need to adhere to?#idk maybe im just panicky like that#but i have so much respect for other artists#and the last thing id want to do is make them feel unheard or disrespected??#previews 🎞️#corrupted file 📄#im not like MAD AT U GUYS if u accidentally send smth without reading it#like its okay !!! sometimes you just dont notice#but it means a lot when u take the time to think about err.. the person behind the screen? yk?

i have a special place in my heart for "show don't tell" storytelling, especially in comic books. comics are a visual medium!
#tim drake#jack drake#comic ref in description#this is the last panel of the comic#and something i really like about it is that i feel like... it has a certain amount of respect for the reader?#you might not notice/get the irony of the batsignal showing up behind them#and the way the batsignal foreshadows that actually this /isn't/ a resolved happy ending#because the conflict between bruce and jack - and more directly between tim's values/priorities vs. his dad's -#hasn't actually been resolved even though they're both sorry and hugging#which means the conflict will inevitably occur again and again and again#which is a very clever grace note here#but if you don't notice that's okay! the comic isn't panicking trying to spell it out for you#if you catch it it's fine and if you don't catch it that's also fine#it has something that i really like about a lot of older comics and sometimes find missing in new ones (at least the ones abt the blorbos)#which is that it assumes that the /readers/ can realize things abt the situation that the /characters/ don't#i read both tim and his dad as both perfectly sincere in this reconciliation - they're caught up in the moment#and physically neither of them can see the batsignal#but we-the-readers can see both the batsignal and the looming future conflicts it implies even though they don't#the narrative isn't telling you what to think! no character emerged to announce 'But In Fact Tim You Still Have A Problem!'#instead the artist has just left the batsignal there and let you make the obvious inferences ON YOUR OWN#similarly in nightwing 110 (another one of my favorites) there's a conversation between dick and tim where they're both lying#if you're only a nightwing reader you know dick is lying but you probably won't figure out that tim is lying (or at least not the extent)#but if you /do/ read tim's comics then you understand what's going on in a way that neither of the characters do#there's just a general understanding that the characters are not fully self-aware nor do they perfectly understand each other#plus the gradual / slow-build / layered conflict#tim's mixed loyalties between bruce and his dad are a constant background slow burn tension#dick's complicated feelings about loving tim but also feeling a little threatened by him are also a low-key thread in the nightwing comics#the writers don't need to have a surprise! sudden! fight! nor do they need all-fluff-all-the-time#instead these tensions are mostly dormant except when they get exacerbated by extreme situations#there are plenty of things that 90s comics do *not* handle well but the character voices and longform style always draw me back <3

*sees a post talking about how farming in the summer must be perfect and sweet and warm*
*laughs in farm worker*
#bro it’s so hot we don’t let the animals out during the daytime#the last couple of days have been nice ish but that’s because we’ve acclimated to 98 degree weather being the worst#as opposed to 89 with a breeze#I’m not saying anymore because it was someone’s art and I respect that#but the cottagecore lifestyle is gonna get you#A. in debt#B. in pain#C. depressed due to the workload#D. Dead#or#E. all of the above#if yall pursue it and don’t recognize the realities behind that lifestyle#that being said may e the artist is from a more circumpolar location than I#and the summers truly aren’t as bad#but judging from how they put ginormous pine trees over a bustling flower garden#I have a feeling it’s an aesthetic wish and not from experience#many flowers often need part time shelter from the sun#but trust me pine trees that large will make it straight up *dark*#also imo plant farming is harder#at least animals can let you know when something is wrong#but thats an opinion

It's absolutely a me thing, probably, but people who say that they hate an author and have the time to reiterate it endlessly but continues to support their work- without ever crediting the good part of the writing that makes them a fan to begin with- irks me so goddamn much.
An author and their work is very intrinsically tied together. They write their beliefs of the world in the text, their sociopolitical stance practically bleeds out from the pages. Of course this isn't the case when you're making a comic or book/any form of media for the sake of it being disturbing, but the point is, I need people to understand that an artist's work is an extension of themselves and you need to respect that especially if it's a work that you love and connect with.
#as someone who's work got toyed with like its nobody's business I need to emphasize on the importance of-#an artist's work that they give time and effort into sharing. HEAVY EMPHASIS ON EFFORT.#this comes from a place of “what. so an artist's property means nothing if it becomes too popular?” that spiraled and so i needed to vent#this is a one piece blog and maybe im talking about Oda and fans of his work but its really every damn piece of media you choose to consume#“i hate this author & how they portray this” and you'd make paragraphs of criticism (which is incredibly valid!) but in the same discussion#i seldom see “this was done well” “this scene was incredible” being attributed/credited as being due to the author's effort and creativity#if you hate the way it was done then its the authors fault but if you love it then you're not giving them praises for it#< something like that#rambles#this is my take on a select few fans mind you#i just hate it when people call someone stupid and still have the gal to say oh i love the work but not the “stupid” person behind it#be more empathetic. seriously#anyways !!respect an artist's work!! thats *their* property and *their* time and effort and if you hate it so much-#then don't engage with it. simple as.

oh lol i forgot to post this robit sketches! because i have one (1) bit and im sure as hell gonna commit to it apparently
#rolling with difficulty#art I made#'shut your up' is a verbatim quote from an ex classmate i just thought it was funny#i dont think it was intentional i think he was just so angry that Words Failed on him#anyway im absolutely not keeping that maxim design. god i fucking hate clothing design *so* much#austin: 'hes a gold plated mechanite dressed in blue and grey robes' me trying to figure out colour placement: 'what FUCK'#i had one (1) good idea and that was 'skeleton shaped robit' and every other part of that design went to hell apparently#bc all the other mechanites we've had were either like... flesh..? shaped?? like that sorta silhouette (basically most of the old crew)#or more mechanical/geometric (vr-la's designs and like.. k-lb? i guess? if that counts)#so. therefore. bone shaped mechanite. also if i was gonna try that concept on anyone it may as well be maxim if you think about it#idk i thought it would be interesting. and also undertale was my first fandom so uh#ANYWAY. MOVING ON FROM THAT THOUGHT.#this started as a 2am intrusive thought of like#'we (artists in the discord) keep joking abt how k-lb would be a nightmare to draw but like.. how hard is it really'#anyway as you can probably expect. famous last words#i mean genuinely mad respect to noir but i think i said to one of my friends when i showed them this sketch#'i mean this in the nicest way possible but you can just tell he was designed for an audio only storytelling format' LMAO#if anyone is unwise enough to attempt this (so basically @ my future self lmao)#do the lineart and colouring for the wires in front of the inner electricity skeleton (???) and the ones behind it on SEPARATE LAYERS#drew the wires all together then the electricity and had to painstakingly go over the electricity with an eraser it was a fucking nightmare

hot take of the day: people who hold phones up for the whole time at concerts should be shamed just as much as the people who hold large signs up the whole time.
#maybe I'm calling out some people here oOP#but yeah at the Halestorm/Black Veil Brides concert I went to the other day#there was a person in front of me with a sign#they were SUPER respectful with it#they showed it to me and explained they would only hold it up for short periods in between songs#and that they would try their best to not get it in my way#I was like wHAT THATS COOL? no worries at all have fun!#and that wold have been all done and good#however whenever they weren't holding the sign they were holding their fucking phone#they recorded every BVB song#all the way through#not giving a single sHIT` about whether or not their phone could have been in my way#which it was#like I could not see past it (I'm short and have a hard time at concerts as it is if I'm not barrier)#what I'm trying to say is just be respectful with your phone at concerts#if you are two rows back from the front you do not need to be holding it up high#and just enjoy the artist in front of you you dont have to watch through your phone#TLDR phones are equally as annoying as signs at concerts#just take into consideration those behind you

I’m fairly new to the fandom, but I do have a question if you can answer it! Why do people ship Daigo with Aoki / Masato? I tried looking to see if they’ve interacted before, but couldn’t find anything! Sorry for asking I’m just </3 dumb AND I LOVE YOUR ART OF THEM!!! Nerd looking ahhhhhh
hi ! welcome to the community i hope you're having a lovely time so far and ty for enjoyin my stuff :) no need for apologies it's a very fair question to have :]
i cant speak for everyone (all. ten people into masadai anyway) but Personally To Me i just think the idea of them together is very funny. thats quite literally it im afraid..
#snap chats#//twenty page google doc in the background// ignore that. it's mostly for comedic purposes#might also be my fault idk sorry about that. allegedly. idk ive had like three people tell me they started to ship them cause of me 🧍♂️#@mementoasts is another person who's drawn masadai and whose stuff i love and am inspod by .. i love their disneyland fic sm ...#there was another artist on twitter who posted a neat drawing of them but i cant remember who they were and i didnt bookmark it //screams//#recently there's been ANOTHER masadai artist ive started following on twitter - @wifekiryu. his account's n/s/f/w fyi before you go looking#he has a tumblr too @foxdies. i say cause i realized as much recently vjeaKLGJALKGJ#oh but I GUESS ill get deeper into why. /i/ personally ship masadai or whatever#first off they're opposing factions yet their character alignments Do Not Match their roles. stereotypically anyway#aoki who leads the 'surface' of society and is meant to be an admirable figure and someone 'just' when really. he sucks LMAO#though that's not atypical of politicians but just from a stereotypical This Is A Respectable Individual perspective of his role#daigo on the other hand leads the 'underbelly' of society- yk comprised of dangerous criminals and outcasts and whatnot#yet as we know him daigo's compassionate and considerate of his men- he doesnt treat them like tools like aoki does#if put in a room with the two daigo would be most people's choice of person to hang out with. probably open a trapdoor on aoki tbh#and i think thats really cool and epic i always love that kinda Subverting Expectations thing#theres also the fact they both started off like. edgy/angsty in the franchise and then brush up down the line#masato does a stronger 180. publicly. obviously but its still really funny they both have to get their act together#if you wanna talk about in-text reasons. there really is none LMAO I TELLS YOU masadai is pure crack#but if i wanted to pull a muscle reaching then there's daigo being on aoki's side while everyone else is on arakawa's during the funeral#im lying of course. mitsu was behind him. rgg tryna make me forget mitsu exist .... put him back in y8 ....#and ofc ichi joins that side to even out the seating but moving on another Goofy Reason is arakawa being like#'the chairman and my son are like p much the same age Surely he knows how he thinks :)'#and then i just think daigo being all smarmy about outsmarting aoki is really goofy and im choosing to interpret that as personal#they both also have issues with their dad. s. dad/s/. anyway.#tbh the google doc tag was a joke but i really could sit here and list every dumb reason why i think theyre funny together#like i started going over the tag limit so uhhhh yeah needless to say i have a lot of. dumb reasons 💀💀💀💀#one day ill use the main text for long rambles like this but todays not that day Point Is my imagination is rampant im afraid#so the short and sweet of it is I Think It's Funny. And They'd Be Terrible Together. Which Is Why It's Funny.#and the unfortunate part is anything i find funny i obsess over for a year so. //gestures to the mountain of bullshit thats my masadai tag/

&why do people act like discoursing over the sexuality of fictional characters and the way people write them in fan fiction is in any way gay activism. btw. like literally who cares. "but theyre canonically--" im sorry. who cares . fanworks are not and never will be canon!!!!!!! just look away!!!!!!! quit treating characters like human beings
#and quit treating humans like characters while we're at it......! fandom & celebrity culture has done such a number on Some Peoples minds!#ppl can do whatever they want in fiction forever but like are they nice to the real people in the fanbase? do they treat fellow fans and th#artists/writers/celebrities behind their fanworks with dignity and respect? Thats all that matters to me. really. yk?#cowboy posts

who’s going to tell all these wannabe AI “artists” that no amount of AI will ever make them talented or skilled
#personal txt#i fucking hate these AI fuckers#who are using it to steal jobs and be lazy without a MODICUM of any personal thought behind those eyes#like just fucking LEARN the craft and respect it and practice it#it isn’t hard y’all are just fucking lazy bc you want instant IG popularity#get a fucking grip you fucking clods#i hate the people who steal existing or deceased artists styles outright#‘I trained it to emulate Dragon Ball Z style’ bitch u trained it to plagiarize#the next generation of kids are going to be so fucking drooling stupid bc they won’t be able to write their own essays let alone a sentence#bc they’ll have ChatGPT write it for them#the critical thinking and literary analysis skills are so fucking low#just like no amount of Ai will make you immortal

Something recently that both humbled and yet motivated me at the same time is the realization that many of these fanartists went to art school 🤣 it seems so silly, right? Like duh!
(and yeah ik there are self taught masterful artists, and they're great and respectable too, but I'm not talking about them. That's a different post for somebody else.)
This post is about those artists who are working professionals, had money and resources and years devoted to bettering their craft, likely in hopes of getting a job doing what they love in their respective fields. They're posting professional level work (for the FREE nonetheless!?!) for everyone to love and support.
Anyway, ofc I'm not as good as them in terms of expertise yet 😂 (I'm sure if they had to self-teach all of molecular bio it would be different than me going to school for it.) Like i really had to step back and readjust my perspective.
#i really have built so much more respect learning the behind the scenes stuff#this shit is madness and they do it for LOVE (and money bc rhey gotta eat)#one guy said learn all the human muscles lmaooo absolutely the fuck not#my brain is past them days not without cash im not#anyway salute the artists#i have lowered the bar for myself SOOO much lmaoo let them be the experts
