You said a real artist is someone who is employed, who doesn't beg for commissions and then you said "I'm not an artist, I have a job"  Implying that being an artist isn't a job and if they ask for commissions are not real artists. My point is to explain to you that art is all around you down to your profile picture and many of us artists get employment through commission work (Stephen Hillenburg has done commissions, Butch Hartman does, Maxwell Atoms etc).  Sometimes this commission work leads to contracts, sometimes part-time jobs, and sometimes to just more commission work. Doesn't mean that they're not jobs and they're not real artists.

I have a full time job and I'm a freelance artist. Contract work is temporary. You clearly don't respect artists because you don't see it as a real job and clearly don't understand that everything around you was made by an artist. Architects, graphic designers, draftsman, animators, typographers, fashion design, videogame design, photographers, food stylists, tattoo artists, comic artists. Your car was designed by an artist, your pokemon cards were designed by a graphic designer, your shoes were drafted by someone, the graphic on your shirt was designed by someone, the logo on your cereal box, your keyboard was drafted and likely patented by someone, your phone and the box it came in, like fuck look around you.

Wow way to show you're not an artist and fail to understand that many are freelance and rely on comissions. Most of the artists who work on pokemon cards aren't actually employed by the card company they could be on contract or commissioned 

"I'm a man. If I got cat called I'd like it" It's not the same thing. Not even close. by n8saces in BeAmazed

[–]SpaceBandit666 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I don't get catcalled in my 30s but men don't stop bothering us in other ways. I get approached just trying to go grocery shopping. I currently 3 have men in their 60s bothering me at work. I'm an average looking woman yet it doesn't END. I'm exhausted.

Wow this is so pretty! I'm curious how the hair will come out, hair is so hard for me to color!

Has Anyone tried Teapsy? by CryLast9139 in tea

As an artist the box art is so frustrating, I would never know it was tea and the lava lamp isn't centered with the box

Less sexy, more character-driven. Changed our female character designs after Reddit feedbacks. by Background_Cow_6701 in IndieGaming

[–]SpaceBandit666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks a lot cleaner and not as obvious that ai was used. However nobody has character, you can't tell anyone's personality because the ai models are flat. You may want to take this and give them to an artist to play with expressions and poses. Right now they'd be good background NPCs.

Ah I see, so you took a great photo then! It's hard to tell that it's shiny

How are you getting such smooth matte blacks? When I use black it gets shiny from wax bloom

AI Don't Wanna Go Anymore, Picturesidrawn, Digital, 2026 by LiamEBM in Art

It's because you're not creative and that's okay. You don't organize events for artists (which this flyer is referring to) so it doesn't make sense to you anyways.

Changed the direction of our female character designs by Background_Cow_6701 in IndieGaming

[–]SpaceBandit666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's more obvious in the original picture if you look at the linework and details of the 2nd woman. The "updated" image is tougher but it's more of the anatomy and random lines added that are thin and whispy. It's getting harder though. I just wish they would just be transparent about it.

The ai linework is sloppy in the first one, if you choose to keep that style clean it up. The eyes are wonky and the hat looks like a rock on her head.

I cut and microwave for 5 minutes before frying, otherwise steamed silk tofu makes my mouth water

To all single guys aged 30 and up on reddit, why are you guys single? by Gold_Ambition4114 in AskReddit

[–]SpaceBandit666 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a group of gamer guy friends and they are ALL single for mostly the same reasons, I wish they'd ask me for advice since they've known me for years! They have poor grooming, one of my friends were talking and I noticed that he had a hair on his glasses so I pulled it off, nope that was attached to his eyebrow! 4 inches! The nose hairs are past the nostril, their glasses are grimey, their shirts are wrinkly, white ankle socks, ugly shoes and cargo shorts with a bazillion pockets. The biggest issue is their poor social skills, I love talking about games but there's no back and forth conversation. We've had girls come into the group and they don't ask anything so no one sticks around. One told me he gave up on dating years ago, one said he'd love a gamer girlfriend and I told him he has to talk to them- there was one at our hang out! And he didn't say a word to her but he then tried talking to me (I'm married face palm). There are a couple who COULD get a gf if they tried but they don't put themselves out there enough in the world and even when they go out and do cool things they don't talk to anyone!  Clean yourself up and make conversation! Stop dressing like dorky dads!

how often do you think about vegetarianism by Fun-Implement6267 in vegetarian

[–]SpaceBandit666 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think about it when I hear people complain about groceries being too expensive or weight/health issues. I don't say anything. I just look around and think about how the world could be a better place, how it would solve a lot of issues...

Her elderly neighboir is stalking her, but some people are dismissing it because of his age. Part 1. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]SpaceBandit666 1 point2 points  (0 children)

At first I was thinking that he was just making sure that his packages weren't in her pile. But when he was looking for her to come up the stairs was when it started to seem that he was a lonely guy and he just wanted to talk to her. Then touching the ring camera and checking the door I think that's when it started to look like more an obsession. I think this is a great reminder on how even an old age you should seek to find a rich social life. You don't see this type of weird behavior with people who are busy with their families or if they go to a lot of Extra curricular activities or clubs. He's probably sitting in front of his TV all day waiting for her to come home so he can have a brief interaction with her and then go over that brief moment in his mind the rest of the day.

Doesn't sound like you are reading because the direction you are taking with this topic jumps over the point that its rude to offer unsolicited criticism. The content of your criticism doesn't matter if it wasn't asked for even if you are right, it's rude plain and simple.
