Artwork General Discussion


A general topic to talk about artwork, sneeze or not.  Maybe you found some new artists and want to share them, or discuss drawing techniques, talk about it here! 

[Anyponedrawn]

First off, these comics have always kind of freaked me out and I found them to be too . . . too sneeze fetishy.  I know I shouldn't talk, but still.  I don't like these comics, or the characters.  I know it takes a ton of work to make them, and I respect them for it.  Here is another person who does something very similar.

I recently started to wonder, what program do they use?  It got me thinking about 3D pony sneezes or other sneezy things.

APD, your link doesn't take us anywhere lol.
I wish I knew what you were talking about heh heh

[MasterXtreme]

APD!  You goofball!  It doesn't work. 

[Anyponedrawn]

I fixed it!  Added a second link.

Oh. I was expecting like exaggerated nostril flares and like excessive mucus or something. But is it just the style that bothers you? Because to me it seems like they're using a 3D software. They actually don't look that uncanny or anything. I think they're well done. Not my cup of tea, but yeah, the chracters look generic, nothing glaringly bad about them.
How do you see them as too fetishy?

And there have been some 3D pony sneezes, one 3P found and shared of Pinkie Pie sneezing. But that was an exceptionally good 3D pony model. Most of them are shit. But that one was really well done. I'm in a studio full of the best SFM pony animators in the fandom, and that stuff takes HOURS to do. To make sure the animation is fluid, well shaded, and all that junk. Otherwise it looks ugly and just no.

I don't know what 3D program they use.  3D pones or anything still takes good amount of time to set up and make backgrounds.

I gotta agree that like.... they look relatively generic. Like, they look really static. However, the fact that they probably put a lot of time into the pictures are something that I have respect for because, well, creating a sneeze, regardless of the media is pretty damn difficult.

http://cutecatz.deviantart.com/art/Luna-s-Allergies-Entry-for-Contest-596279342 a new allergy related drawing.

A friend of mine is this person: http://karidurosu.deviantart.com/ their characters are unique, and they love mess, but there's different kinds of artwork they do. Go check them out if you want to.

[Death Blossom]

You shouldn't post that drawing here, make its own thread! So more people can see it.

[Soda]

I recognize their work, but don't know who they are.


I must agree with APD too, I don't like those 3D human pics.  There is just something.... about them.... I don't... know....  *Image of her face keeps zooming into my face then flashes in various bright colors.* 

[Darrin]

It's cute.  The Luna pic, not the other ones APD linked.  Those bother me greatly. 

[Death Blossom]

Seriously? Maybe it's because I didn't click to see them full view and only looked at their thumbnail size.
But yeah, the Luna one is qt.

As a whole I'm not a big fan of 3D models into comics. The ones Smokey used that APD linked, and among others I've ran into webcomics over the years. They don't really translate well: human or Sonic or MLP 3D modeling, whichever is used, in my opinion.

I think it's the creepy uncanny valley vibe to them. If I want to read a comic I don't really want to see, like, hyper-realistic versions of people acting out things. Better punchlines and stories can be told with stock photo models, lol.

Same with Bitstrips and from the animation side of things, GoAnimate. I really hate those, lol.

[Wolfwood]

I have to agree with the consensus, but I think Patripony nailed it on comics and the animations.

3D modeling just isn't as interesting to me in comics.  I like life and emotion in the drawing, not some sterile 3D character.  Sure you can try to add emotion to it, but it is just a model.  Nothing more.  No life to it.

I guess that is why so many artists and non artists here also prefer traditional animation to CGI.
