I don't mean, in any way to sound offensive or rude when I say this, but I really am curious how you think that you have any right to say that someone is wasting their talent. Just curious really.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
just on the fact that I would be far more curious to see what the artist could do with their own original work in the vein of this wonderfully deatiled steampunk-esque landscape that they did. theyre obviously a talented cartoonist. I feel its wasted because theyre going to be discounted and thought less of by half of the viewers who look at this. If it was fun for them, thats fine. I understand theres that sort of thing in art communities like this, but I mean... serious artists gotta learn to pick their battles and watch their reputation. polarizing subject matter like this causes unneeded strife in an artistic community-- while personally I really dont give a damn for this whole pony fandom (and hope and pray to whoever that this blows over finally...) I still can take a step back from myself and see what things like this do to our artist community. I continue to see more and more of these pony-themed DD's and I have to frown that the moderators in charge of DD's are pushing this agenda. its making flamewars everytime. I mean, surely you've noticed this, right?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I can see what you're saying. But there's just one thing that bugs me about it. Most pony artist, as far as I can tell, only have followers who are in the fandom or are tolerant of it. True, there are many an artist within the fandom that do other things, and so they may get watchers from it. But if the main thing they draw is pony art then really the only blame is set in those who chose to follow them. And I also feel that those who decide to try and assault someone for their work shouldn't be given the time of day, let alone replied to. And I think that most artists would agree with that. There's always going to be flame wars and hate of something. It happens throughout internet history. It really doesn't matter what it's about, someone out there will hate it.
Another thing that bothers me is that you are under the impression that the pony fandom is one, what, a thousand strong. And that it's some sort of fad. There are, after a recent poll was taken, over 1.7 million bronies in the US alone. And it's a lot like the Star Wars fandom or the Avatar fandom. It isn't going to die down just because people outside of it want it too. I honestly don't understand why people outside a fandom would try so hard to take away something that people enjoy. To me it makes no sense.
On another note, I'm not one to frequent the DD section. I usually just see the random ones at the bottom. Oddly enough, this is one of the first times I've seen pony related art featured in the DD section. I have no idea what "agenda" you're talking about, but did you eve stop to think that maybe they added those pieces to the DD section because of their merit as amazing pieces, and nothing more? That it has nothing to do with the fandom it's based off of at all? And the fact that flame wars come of it just shows that we as human being don't deserve the internet or any of the things that we make because it eventually is used towards hate. I mean really, getting angry over what? Someones like of a TV show? And what? They want to talk and hang out with people who also watch it? That isn't exactly a new concept. I mean, fandoms have been around since the internet. My instinct is to say grow up and move on. But I know there are people out there who only do it because they seem to feed off of that hate and fighting. And they would use that as some wild basis to start even more problems.
To be honest, I don't see fandom as a problem. Nor do I see it as anything less than real art. Art does not change in value based off of it's subject matter. It changes based off of perception of it. If we were to see things in an unbiased light then we would see them for what the artist wanted, rather than our own perceptions of it. I believe that it is those who would start wars and misery who are wrong with it. Not the art itself, but the people who start fights simply to start them.

you know, I had a very long and thought out reply to this... I really did... and then firefox crashed on me 
basically the highpoints
-the subject hits close to home for you, your fandom
-the agenda topic was meant as a note on the fact that theres a pony fan in the mod team, ergo it makes it in with poor quality subs sometime (see party pony DD from about 3 or 4 weeks back)
-I dont disparage the fandom, I have friends who like it
-I dont however encourage it to be sprayed everywhere without thought of others around
-theres a large portion of the community that makes bronies on the whole look obnoxious, earning the ire of others and illiciting strong reaction to just minor presence (usually the precurser for a more to come scenario)
-I feel bad that the community is portrayed like that. some things are well done, but others....
and finally
-Youre arguing that my opinion is wrong. its just that though, an opinion. I'm allowed to have whatever opinion I want. if its that I think the artist is wasting their talent, then so be it. its not harming you, or the others who see so shocked and aghast at my simple simple little tiny comment. to say that I'm not allowed to have an opinion, why thats worse than people flaming and trolling on this.

Okay, allow me to start off by saying that if I sounded hostile in any way with the previous post, than I apologize. It was never my intention, nor will it be, to start an argument. I merely wanted to express to you what I feel about the use of, well, the word. Words are powerful. And they can do so many things. But more importantly, it is the perception and reading of the word that can change it's meaning. But I digress.
I do however, want to respond to your points in kind.
True the subject does hit close to me, as I am a member of the fandom. It make sense that I would have some interest in the things that go on in it, whether good or bad.
After taking that fact into consideration I must concede that you have a valid point. Just because you are in a fandom or enjoy it doesn't me you should start seeing things with a biased perception. Especially if your job involves being unbiased.
And I agree with you on that point. I do not believe that people should try and shove something in other peoples faces. Especially if they don't want it. I feel this way towards, well, everything. From media to religion.
And I know what you mean, about those who call themselves bronies. Brony was originally used as just a word to describe someone who enjoys the show. But as the fandom evolved, the name had to as well. So most bronies now a days, when they see those people who are fanatic to the extremes about it, don't call them bronies. Because they usually don't uphold what we as a fandom represent. But yes, I do agree with you that it is because of these people, who call themselves bronies, that we have such a bad rap.
And this is also true. Though in a little lesser way. Artist are artists. They may be gifted in what ever art they choose, or not so much. But that's how it's always been. Ever since we picked up the brush, there are the greats, and then there are the not so greats. But I do agree, that the fandom shouldn't get such a bad reputation for the few bad apples that decided to group around us.
And lastly, I am not, in any way arguing that your opinion is wrong. You are your own human being. With your own thoughts and ideals. I have no right, in any way, to try and change who you are or what your ideals are. What I was trying to do though, through these posts, is to explain to you that by telling someone that they are wasting their talent you can be seen as basically telling them they cant do what they like, and that they have to do something else. Stifling their creativity, and basically taking their freedom of it.
Now, I know that the artist probably doesn't think that, and well, probably doesn't care about what you posted. Or they may have taken it into consideration. Who knows besides them. But it all comes back to what I said before. It all comes down to the word. Not just it's meaning, but how it is used. And how others might interpret what you said. Now, I know that you didn't mean any of that, and that you were just voicing your opinion. I understand that, and believe you to have every right to. But from what you've told me, about how others have tried to defend the artist, that basically says that they don't know that. And because they aren't you, they didn't know what your true meaning was for using the words you used.
In short, I never once said that your opinion was wrong. And I would never dream of saying it. I am, however saying, based on the replies you've gotten, that your words were wrong.
On one final note, I would just like to say that I did not mean any of what I said to be rude or hurtful in any way. That I only said what I said so you could better understand why so many people were defending the artist in question. And that I have no ill will or hostility against you. And that I thank you for putting up with these long replies, and basically not brushing me off or insulting me as many have done in the past. ^_^

I really try not to bring nastyness into it. I get ruffled from time to time and might come off as rough, but I always attempt to at least keep a fair demeanor to things. I hold art (as many here do I hope) very near and dear to my heart. while my recent work as of late is not exactly what I ENJOY doing, I do still try and draw for the sake of drawing here and again.
I honestly am happy that you understand and are willing to talk these things through like this, its refreshing to meet someone reasonable. I do apologize myself if things were, well, tense. after the event with flareraise, I've kind of been on edge with these responses.
I will still maintain that I think the artist knows where I'm coming from if they did indeed see the comment, and can at least respect the opinion as a simple notion of idle critique. I would certainly hope an artist of their skill would indeed be like that x3

I feel the same way.And it is true that I can be a bit, well, uncomfortable to deal with at times. But I always try to keep things civil.
I went through your gallery and I must admit, that even though I am not a fan of inflation art, your style and technique are quite impressive. I can't draw a human, or humanoid to save my life. I think that is one of the reasons I draw ponies more often. Less things I have to deal with, and more ways I can improve my over all style.
I'm extremely happy that we can both talk about something like this without being at each others throats. It is very refreshing to have a polite, if heated, debate on a topic that didn't eventually digress into petty insults. And you do not need to apologize. neither of us said anything that should be considered hurtful so their shouldn't be anything to be sorry about. And as you said, you have been on edge. Which is understandable considering your position and how people have viewed it. ^_^
And I agree with you that the artist knew what you meant by what you said. He or she seems to be a pretty intelligent person, so I can guess that they know how you were using your words.
Still, in light of everything, it was very nice talking to you. Even though we met under less than preferable circumstances I still enjoyed it. So thank you for hearing me out, and I wish you a very pleasant night. ^_^

Dude, can no one just get over the pony thing? It's really pathetic how people still get so uptight about that shit. 'Ponies? Seriously? Wasting your talents, boyo?' Your gallery is filled with inflation and vore pictures! You're cool with all of that and then multicolor ponies get you bent out of shape? I get that one is a fan thing and the other is a fetish but come on!
Vore? Inflation? Seriously? Wasting your talents, boyo... That would make more sense if you actually had any though.

He is not really wasting any talents you know, fan art sell more then any other type of art. This is one of the best mlp fan art i have seen in a while, and i got to say it's quite amazing.

youre a MLP fan though, so it kind of makes your opinion biased, no?
👍: 0 ⏩: 2
Well, you say you really hate when pony stuff makes DD, so technically that would mean you are a little biased as well when passing judgement that drawing something with this level of detail while mixing in a show that they just happen to be a fan of is a waste of talent. Beg pardon, but I never knew that one was required to trade away simple, personal enjoyment and pleasure in order to be talented in anything or show creative skill.
Enjoyment inspires passion and passion inspires a desire to apply oneself to do better. That's the base of any kind of art whether it be in a visual display of intricate detail or in the written/typed word that successfully brings to life a mental image.

yea... but the wasted potential is to say the person could make serious work thats round about appealing and not inviting a molotov wielding mob. seriously, the whole pony thing only INVITES ire from half the internet, so why prod a bull in the eye? I aknowledged the guy did fantastic work on everything beyond the technicolor ponies... but honestly if he expected to *not* get a camp of raging anti-ponycrap on dA comments, then thats just naive and foolish. doubly so with you guys who defend it so vehemently. Impassioned and psuedological explanations aside, the opinion will end up the same of either kissing its ass, or hurling stuff and screaming at the painting. theres no denying that.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
That's kind of lending to the idea that this pony fandom is the ONLY thing out there that invites both positive and negative feedback. Granted, it is true that anti-fandom users would show up more for this current fandom... because it is CURRENT. When something is still going through the heat of successful and fast growing popularity, it's a MAGNET for criticism. EVERYTHING is at one point.
Christ, it doesn't even have to be a fandom of any sort in order to invite negativity from SOMEONE. Artistic medium, categorical topic, social arrangements, even religious to scientific mindsets all have their critics.
Also, I never once mentioned that the artist was naive to this. Honestly, with the work I've seen in the gallery, I'm pretty certain that they are completely aware of the fact... as is ANYONE with a functioning brain that is still capable of logic and understanding the social workings that thrive on the internet these days. Everyone that posts, in the form of a picture/story/poem/comment/etc..., is open to some sort of negativity.
But, enough of that rambling and back to the MAIN point... I can't speak for the others that defended this piece before me, but I will tell you now that my opinion on this has nothing to do with being a fan. (The show is VISUALLY cute, I can admit that, but I could never really bring myself to be that interested in it on a full entertainment level.) However, it has everything to do with being capable of completely overlooking ONE little SUBJECT ADDITION in an overall fantastic piece.
I don't give a damn WHAT the artist is interested in, is a fan of, or even a blind fanatic for. That's THEIR thing, just like I have MY own thing and MY own interests. Just like them, I know that my own interests can be viewed as total crap too. With that in mind, I refuse to let something as harmless as fandom blending completely blind me to the quality (as well as entertaining for those who ARE fans due to the Where's Waldo feel of this...) that I see before me.
Example: I happen to hate the show Teen Titans with a passion. However, even if this picture had used those obnoxious/overly animu ABORTIONS of good comic characters instead of ponies, I would still praise this picture for its intricacy.
My main gripe is how it seems sooooo damn difficult for people to get over themselves when it comes to fandoms, easily letting it change their overall opinion of a picture that is genuinely good, shows a lot of work, and displays some impressive talent.
You said that you admit that you find this piece to be very good and that the artist has talent, but you still went and let FANDOM be the judge on whether or not they are using it constructively or not. NO ONE is allowed to make that kind of judgement about anyone other than themselves. If it makes the artist happy and they actually get ENJOYMENT out of all this in the end, then mission accomplished. They've found a little personal success for themselves and, in sharing it, have given those with a similar interest a little smile. Again, a success even if there are a number of haters. No matter, because the product wasn't intended for them anyways.

Well I like the show, but it's not my fave show. My favorite show is a anime called death note, I was not talking about the show per say, I was just saying that drawing fan art is not a waste of time.

when its something as flame-magnet and polarizing as this? yea...kinda is. you draw more followers and then alienate the other half of people- and as is the other half of people seem to be the dominant majority. the person either gets passed over despite their wonderful skill, or they get tared and feathered by a mob flinging flaming pitch at the drawing, others defending it and getting hammered in the face by angry people, starting conflict and interal strife for the artistic community. if they would have done like... futurama, or final fantasy, or even something as derpy and cartoony as adventure time, the artist would be so much better off. I'm not saying that the artists shouldnt paint what they like, but I dont think its a good idea for it to be thrust into the spotlight by giving the piece a DD...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The only thing I see wrong off what you said is " futurama, or final fantasy, or even something as derpy and cartoony as adventure time" fan art is fan art, it does not matter what it is from as long as the art is good. This has every right to be here, no matter what type of fan art it is. He would not have drawled it if he knew what he is getting in to. From what you said earlier about other fan art makes it sound that you just have something against mlp, which would make your opinion bit biased. So anyways it's here for a reason, there is no point arguing about it, and saying it should not have got a DD.
