Are you shitting me?  I’ll draw whatever I please, asshat.  Because it pleases me, not because it pleases you.

This goes to everyone.  If you really have super opinions about what an artist should or should not draw, think about what THEY want to draw.  Because that’s all that actually matters.

Furthermore I think you’ve got a bad eye if you really think this isn’t my style.  Seriously?

Fuck off.

*Claps* Great response.  Seriously, unless you’re paying an artist or employing that artist you really have no right to tell them what they can or can’t draw for themselves.

Every time I get a message like that I just kind of want to know where, exactly, people got all of those high horses so cheap. I was just telling my roommate last night that I’ve been bitched out several times before for drawing “cute” things and “selling out” … or for drawing in different styles or for daring to experiment and try new things after almost a decade of active internet-art-fandom activity.

Of course the one that constnatly cracks me up that i’ve gotten so many times is “You just draw fanart for popularity!” because I’m totally drawing fanart from two old series from the 90s for the views, guys.

of course, none of that BS really matters because anyone who enjoys making art or wants to pursue it for a career will just keep going regardless of what anyone says, but it’s certainly infuriating when you have to deal with it. It’s actually really funny, too, when you consider the fact that the fan art/stuff posted online is usually just a hobby on the side of original projects and goals.

there’s a lot of really poor attitudes concerning how artists on the internet “owe” this or that to their fans when they put their work up for absolute free. It’s not critique, guys, don’t even try to disguise it as that BS. It’s a group of uninformed, frankly ignorant people acting like 12 year olds who think they can tell a complete stranger, usually entertaining them for free, what to do with their spare time and usually do so with such privileged arrogance as to sound as if that complete stranger works for them and is, in some way, beneath them.

I certainly don’t go around showing up in people’s spaces telling them what to do with their hobbies because, frankly, it’s none of my business.

woah..

i mean, i personally cant stand mlp

but i cant get over what a dick move it is to single out one artist like this, omg
