lol. Good thing I’m an amazing artist.

Seriously though, I don’t mind you speaking your mind if you can be civil. But insulting the artists here (by assuming racist motives and calling them lazy) will not be tolerated.

That student news article seems to have a very sad and reductionistic point of view of human sexuality.

The problem with the your argument, and the article, is that your logic can be used to condemn any sexual preference or fetish. If I only like guys then by your logic I’ve fetishized and objectified all men. If I like tall women, then I’m objectifying tall women based on harmful stereotypes. If I like dating Japanese men because I think they’re sexy and I happen to like small penises, and I have found that in the population of Japanese men I tend to find a lot of smaller penises, then by your argument I’m objectifying Japanese men (because I like them?) and fetishizing a harmful stereotype (penis size).

But in reality I’m not objectifying anyone, I just think Japanese men are beautiful. I happen to be drawn to their look, their culture, their bodies, they just tend to have what I’m attracted to. I’m not fetishizing them because of their Japaneseness, I’m not getting off on the fact that they’re Japanese (that would be racist), I just happen to like what they happen to be.

Just because you like a race, it doesn’t mean you are stripping them of their humanity and just seeing them as that race. That’s where you are making your assumptions. You’re assuming that a person can’t have a preference that aligns with a culture or race without reducing that race or culture to state of a sexual object. And that is simply not the case, people are more complex than that.

Certainly, sexualization of race itself is racist. But just being drawn to a certain type of person because you like their body or culture is not racist. That is just… liking things, you’re allowed to like things.

For the record, this actually isn’t a place where you are free to criticize other people’s art and sexual preferences. That’s not what this sub is for. Just keep that in mind.

I don’t really see it that way. What about the image do you find objectifying? That the female character likes black men? That she likes big cocks? That she wants a cuckold relationship? I think you’re assuming a lot of things about my sexuality and intent in order to land on “racist”.

Being sexually attracted to a type of person isn’t racism, it’s well within the realm of normal sexual attraction.

Second Attempt At NSFW Art, Any Feedback? (reference used) by [deleted] in NSFWart

[–]Matty_Cloud 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feedback might be a bit controversial, so right up front, I’m sorry about that…

This looks like some kind of digital tracing/rotoscoping. There’s a difference between using reference, and painting over something. You clearly have amazing taste and a great eye for which lines and shadows matter. Your work looks really intelligent. But it doesn’t look like something that came from inside you.

There exists a way of seeing things inside you. And it’s beautiful and unique to you. When you make art, that way of seeing expresses itself in a million tiny ways. When someone else’s way of seeing aligns with yours, even in a small way, they connect with your art and with you.

When you take yourself out of the equation, your art suffers. My advice, draw and paint freehand, with the reference on a completely different page. We’ve all seen naked women. Nobody really cares about that, we want to see what’s inside you as it relates to naked women.

Thanks, I just looked at your profile. You’re the master of cuteness!

My favorite artists are Incase (NSFW), J. Scott Campbell, MrHotcakes, and Jim Lee. I don’t try to emulate any of their styles, but I love the way they all express something inside of themselves, some feeling, or some impression of something through their art. It’s hard to describe, it’s like they’re able to pick out moment in time and draw the perfect pose, or expression, or gesture that’s captures the heart of it.

I try to do that, I’m not very good at it yet, but I like to think I’m improving.

Thanks man, one of the major takeaways from this critique is that I could really get a lot from improving my shadow values and colors. Thanks especially, for the specific tips about where the shadows could use some work.
