To all the people who say that these films are copying and/or ripping off Spider-verse because they have similar animation styles:

PLEASE SHUT THE ACTUAL HELL UP.

It legitimately aggravates me when people say that this art/media is copying this other art/media just because it committed the oh so heretical act of having common elements. Like when people say that "The Owl House is ripping off Amphibia because they have similar premises", or that "this cartoon art style is generic because bean mouths" or some shit.

As a person who still trying to grow as a digital artist, I know for a fact that creativity is not simply just conjuring up something completely different from everything else out of thin air. It's about taking certain elements and qualities and arranging and reassembling them in a way that's unique.

There's no denying that Spider-verse was nothing short of revolutionary when it came to its animation, but even though the above 4 films clearly have many things in common with Spider-verse (and each other), they each still have many other qualities and subtleties that make their animation styles stand out on their own.

In the end, all I'm saying is that just because this art/media is similar to another does not automatically mean it's less creative.

Mass Effect 1, in an elevator somewhere:

Wrex: So tell me, who'd win in a fight between you and Shepard?

Garrus, flustered and kind of offended: That question smacks of impertinence. Commander Shepard is a Spectre with a distinguished service record!

Mass Effect 3, at Shep's Citadel party:

Wrex: So if you and Shepard had a fight, who'd win?

Garrus, ogling his feisty 5'3 girlfriend across the room with heart eyes: She'd absolutely demolish me <3

of the many injustices put forth toward the show by fans i think the most overall damaging and telling of a complete lack of critical viewership is the idea that sam riegel builds his characters with nothing more than the bit in mind. like you are only telling on yourself if you think characters like scanlan shorthalt and veth brennato are one-dimensional and depthless

What better way to vent about low-effort AI-generated artwork than with a low-effort shitpost?

I love early Essek because he is still going full ham on his façade as loyal Dynasty noble, all his courtly scripts and dropping "Light be with you", "under the light of the Luxon", blithely praising "brave folks" with "commendable will" who go settling on the edge of the Ghostlands and fight the darkness because there is not enough room in the city, and it sounds like he doesn't care - because he doesn't, certainly - but it sounds like he doesn't care for the right reason, which is that he is a perfectly ordinary upper crust politician with all the outward aplomb and inner callousness that entails. Nothing to see here. Absolutely not a traitor who feels isolated and frustrated in his homeland, disconnected from the faith, and gradually panicking more and more as the M9 crack his business wide open.

I envision these two having to explain to Bruce why the school called and said one of Damian's classmates was afraid for his life.

here’s the thing. about zolu. puts myhand on your shoulder Here’s the thing. luffy? aromantic. zero interest in romance. zoro? gay. very low interest in romance. has two braincells and they’re both devoted to thinking about swords. they are not dating. it is not romantic. it’s not sexual either because luffy, much like his views on romance, could not give less of a shit about sex. maybe if they both feel up to it at the same time, but that’s rare and when it does happen it’s more of a physicality and, to a lesser extent, affection thing than anything else. occasionally it’s a “hey wouldn’t it be weird/funny/fucked up if we [insert some david cronenberg-type shit]” thing and the other one goes “haha yeah do you wanna try.” but i digress.

however. HOWEVER. they Have A Thing. what that Thing entails is a mystery. luffy is both incredibly straightforward and frustratingly cryptic whenever he’s asked about it and zoro just kinda shrugs. they’re just luffyandzoro and zoroandluffy. the king and his lionheart. drift compatible. partners. captain and first mate. the sailor and the north star. sun and moon. they simply Are. what does that entail? well brother. they hang out

Other stuff I've been working on while trying different coloring and line styles.

I much prefer the cartoonish look, ngl! Anything can be a Disney movie if you believe in it hard enough :P
