What are /ic/'s thoughts on Loish?

>>2712575
Is that the girl that gets butthurt for criticizing and gets away with it cause she is a girl with a white knight army

>>2712580

That sameface holy shit

>>2712575
Her art or her?

I don't know much about her as an artist, but I know some people don't like her for whatever reason.

Art wise, I like her work. Her use of color is really fun, and I like the kinda wonky facial proportions she uses. It's interesting.

Have you seen her sameface problem?.
It would be so big of a deal if everything that she did wasn't portrait like pictures.
There are like 2 in every 12 that are detailed.

>>2712608
I just don't really think it's a big deal. I just take it for what it is.

Honestly I feel like the "sameface" thing people claim she has is exaggerated. I'm not saying a lot of her stuff doesn't looks similar, but I feel like it's brought to attention more often than it really should be. She has plenty of talent.

Loish's only claim to fame is her popularity on deviantart..

She worked for Lego apparently, but fuck me if she's not a kardashian of the artworld

Even if loish has settled into a comfort zone, at least she is drawing more than all of us and enjoying it.

>>2712589
Women have a tendency to draw themselves all the time.

>>2712612
She's famous because she's been drawing for a very long time and never caused stupid drama.
She's dependable and good, all someone needs to be to be a professional artist sponsored by wacom and adobe.

It really is that easy, draw a lot and be a good person.

From your screenshot alone, this is her "sameface" problem.

The problem is overstated. She's definitely got a 'standard' face she goes back to a lot and there's some common design decisions in a lot of her portraits, but not to the extent people are claiming. She pretty obviously steps outside it.

>>2712806
Oh shit I meant to reply to this guy
>>2712624

>>2712807
Same facing is good.

It makes your artwork recognisable like a brand.

>>2712820

I don't disagree, I'm just also saying that she doesn't "sameface" in the sense of having one face she slaps on everything, she's clearly capable of stepping outside her more standard look.

There's even variation within examples of her 'sameface', it's just - as you say - recognizably her approach to a face.

People seem to have really loosened up their criteria for crying sameface lately. It seems all it needs to be accused of it now is for the drawing to have two eyes, a nose and a mouth and it's sameface.

Her faces all seem the same to me.
I dont really mind that, but when you notice it you cant help but noticing it. Also, most of her faces are pointing downwards, which kinda irks me too.

I like her use of color too, really cool.

What I dont like is how all her stuff feels the same. To me it just feels like decoration and those meme-tutorials she's been doing lately are totally useless. I dont have much against her but I see people (mostly girls) be fucking nuts about her, and if you're not chanting their song, you're a mortal enemy.

I've seen this a bunch of times lately, that /ic/ nerds get triggered by artists who make the stylistic choice to have the eyes further apart than usual. Last I saw it in a thread about some asian girl portrait by Sinix. Why is that? Is this the new "tumblr nose" you obsess over that makes you feel superior towards technically far more skilled artists?

>>2712827
chris sanders is fucking awesome

>>2712575
Huge inspiration to me, I love her uses of shape and proportions, her coloring is very nice too.

Can Loish draw open mouths?
Beaver teeth doesnt count. Like a proper open mouth.

I dont think I've ever seen one of her illustrations have an open mouth.

>>2712827
There's a huge difference between proper stylization and drawing something that simply looks wrong. The shit in your picture is properly stylized, even if I think the style itself looks like cancer.
The picture by Sivix you're referring to was not properly stylized. He more or less drew a normal face and moved the eyes apart, which made it look like an amateur mistake. This is not stylization.

As for why people dislike the style in the OP, it's probably because it's ugly as fucking sin. You've got a tiny skull and the eyes that are too far apart. The features that are enhanced make them look like they've got some weird birth defects, and is quite common among a lot of female artists. The other reason people might not like it, is because it's a style that is very common in studios like Disney. Copying Disney of all things, just shows an astonishing lack of creativity.

>>2712839
>Copying Disney of all things, just shows an astonishing lack of creativity.

Don't a lot of skilled draftsmen and animators work at Disney though?
Not trying to nitpick, just want to hear more about your elaboration.

>>2712835
There are very few situations where a portrait artist would draw a wide open mouth. I mean, can Sargent draw an open mouth? Not slightly open or a teeth showing smile, but like a proper open mouth. I don't think I've ever seen one of his paintings have an open mouth.

>>2712842
>Don't a lot of skilled draftsmen and animators work at Disney though?
Well duh. Of course there are a lot of skilled people in the biggest animation studio in the world. There are also a lot of skilled artists working for Marvel, Blizzard and DC. That doesn't make them particularly creative, though.

>it's a style that is very common in studios like Disney.

That style is not common at all with Disney actually. Apart from Lilo & Stitch of course. When I think of wide apart eyes, I think mostly of some Ghibli character designs, plenty of the "weird" non-anime asian illustrators tend to do it a lot too. Iain McQue, Sanders, Kim Jung Gi.. I've see it all over the place to be honest. So yeah, making the argument that it's fine when a good artist does it and it's bad when an artist who you don't like does it is kind of stupid.

>>2712857
Are you illiterate or something? I'm talking about the combination of a tiny skull and eyes that are far apart. It makes them look like they're suffering from microcephaly.

Found the style I was referring to, but it seems more popular with Dreamworks rather than Disney. Thought Prince of Egypt and El Dorado was Disney, but my point still stands, as it's a common style in big budget western animation. The studio doesn't really matter.

Sometimes you gotta admit art is subjective, duderinos. Loish is A-ok in my books and so is Chris Sanders and Keane.

>>2712575
Please i don't deserve this bullying

>>2712807
This.

Like, I'm not saying it isn't there, it's just not really a big deal. People use it as an excuse to rip on her, and that's fine if it's not for you, but like don't dismiss her obvious skill because of one thing that isn't even a big deal.

I'm not even a big fan of Loish, I just really hate when people nitpick because it's a popular artist.

>>2712575
Shes shit. Shes pretended to be 18-19 years old when really shes 32 and still can't construct a face

>>2712978
I could add, she went to school for animation and thats where the eyes too far apart red nose tumblr shit comes from

dunno if sameface or not but her work is just kind of boring to me. her colours, compositions and subject matter may be skillful but in the end nothing about them is surprising, it's all very "safe".

>>2712978

How exactly does she pretend to be 18-19? Just curious

>>2712986

Because that's what she is, more or less? It's no secret women decline fast after hitting 30

>inb4 muh misogyny

>>2712992
Yes? Don't just say random shit if there isn't evidence. It's not like obscure information about random internet artists is common knowledge.

>>2712575
Very nice choice of colours and her style Is not my type though. It's quite sad that people (like You) have to resort to creating such useless threads to shit on artists you don't like, pathetic that you can't even come up with something on their levels, just like tehmeh haters or Kyle haters.

>>2713028

Most of the "criticism" of Loish in this thread seem like the most petty nitpicking bullshit I've seen. Her "same face" problem is hardly a real problem since she demonstrates she can draw other type of faces. She's consciously choosing to draw the faces she likes. It's not a crutch and it's not to the same degree as weeb artists. She can display variation. Loish's art is good. Her colors is what I like the most but she clearly understands fundamentals. The chick knows what she's doing. Some kids on /ic/ just need to quit acting like fuckbois and give people props when they are due. She's not Sakimichan.

Here's an experiment you can do:

Pick an artist who is working, has a good grasp of the fundamentals, but posts some work online that isn't easily searchable.

Post a piece of that work on here claiming it's yours.

Wait for the (you)s to roll in about how you need Loomis and it's a fundamentally shitty drawing for some vague reasons.

What is it that all great artists have in common, I mean really GREAT ones? It's their fundamentals and maybe 10% of their style and personal tastes.
90% of the critiques on /ic/ could be boiled down to "Get your fundamentals in check"

You: but some people are bullying some in the thread.

You kind of are making no sense blood. ic is not a single person. Some don't like stylized art, doesn't imply no one can do good stylized art. (Also I am pretty sure its not against stylization but against animoo, a lot of generally well regarded art is stylized. For example Mullins or Huston are in no way photorealistic, that is stylized)

So it's a girl who is a shapeshifter? Does she become white or does she become black? How come she's skinny as a black girl and a white girl but then as a white girl she gains a bit of weight?

>>2715431
If something is well-executed it's good. Subject matter is irrelevant.

Her sameface is demonstrably not a crutch, she can and does switch it up. If you think all the faces in this image >>2712807

This is what happens when you treat Loomis as religion. Your eyes rot away and your become incapable of distinguishing subtleties unless they're laid out in the specific way your cult leader does it.

>>2716338
/ic/ doesn't understand aesthetics, individuality or style. It's all /b/ shitposters and rules lawyering autists that can't draw worth a shit but would still call a photograph "anatomically incorrect" just because it's not stylized (ironically) to Loomis' particular canon.

You're a retard who doesn't understand artistic fundamentals. You're attracted to turd polishing techniques like chromatic aberration and don't have critical thinking skills.

No, they're artistic crutches on the same level as an artist hiding the hands and feet of their characters.

If you're all so good why aren't you Wacom's favorite artist?
Why aren't you drawing for a top tier company?
Why aren't you known and loved by people?

Ugh. A thoughtless, annoying statement.

No they are not.

As they fall within the normal spectrum of the human form, they can't be artistic crutches. They are deliberate choices by the artist, showing preference or interest in a specific characteristic of the human form.

I'm so tired of people commenting "her neck is too long, the eyes are too far apart, the hands are too large, etc., etc." in cases when it is clear that it is a deliberate choice, not a technical mistake.

>>2717398
Except the shit in the OP is far more exaggerated. Not to mention the models in your picture are chosen because they look odd and unusual.

>Ugh. A thoughtless, annoying statement.
Could you cunts please go back to tumblr?

>>2717408

Do you also bitch about massive anime craniums and four-fingered cartoon characters?

>>2716364

Lol.

>>2717415
/ic/ gets triggered by anything that isn't realism or anything that doesn't line with their ideology.

This board is is all of the cancers of Tumblr in one board. Worse than /co/.

>>2717415
Four fingered cartoons are rarely drawn to be attractive or visually appealing. They're usually relegated to the most simplistic gag cartoons.
As for anime, the features that are exaggerated are ones that make women look cute or sexy. A large cranium makes them look younger and cuter, because it's a common trait in children, and big eyes are expressive.
Tiny craniums or eyes that are far apart aren't traits that are considered attractive, except among homosexual fashion designers and the women who consume this degenerate form of fashion. In fact, they immediately draw your mind to severe genetic disorders, which is the last thing you want to evoke when trying to draw attractive characters.

Four-fingered cartoons are drawn to be visually appealing precisely because five fingers often look strange or cramped when animated.

I'm not at all surprised that you're an anime apologist. Women characters that have alien-like, exaggerated features are interesting to look at. If that weren't the case Loish and anime would both have a much smaller audience.

Your blind tribalism and inability to accept different viewpoints makes you more like the people you hate than anyone posting in this thread.

She studied animation in art school as her major, works as a storyboard artist and is reknowned for her caricatures for the screen and her personal illustrations of women. She has an extraordinary understanding of colour and movement and her work is very adaptable for the field she works in.

> same facing
arguably disney and studio ghibli are same safe connoisseurs - i think it's related to the animating field.

What's the point of drawing the mundane?
There's cameras for that and they will always produce better results than your shitty Loomis "skills" traced over photos will.

Drawing is for the unusual and extraordinary and has been for the past couple centuries, get with the times you anachronistic autist.

No it's not for a single person. Loomis didn't create the fundamentals of art nor is he the only person beginners study from.

The fact that you don't know this show you're lack of knowledge of art history.

>>2717694
>What's the point of drawing the mundane?
To learn how to draw, something you don't know how to do.

>There's cameras for that and they will always produce better results
Photos constantly leave out detail, involuntary change perspective, destroy form in the wrong lighting and fuck up the colors of the real world. You'll never find a photo that looks better than a good painting.

>Drawing is for the unusual and extraordinary and has been for the past couple centuries
No it hasn't.

>>2717427
>what is anime
Tbh most alternative styles are trash. Carroon ""style"" exists because it can be done cheaply and fast.

>>2717427
No, some of /co/ actually likes cartoons and can have decent threads. /ic/ is just one big circle jerk of self-proclaimed artistic geniuses.

Hell, the art threads on /co/ are way more enjoyable to be in than the entirety of /ic/. At least the "never gonna make it" and "Loomis" memes don't occur there.

It exists because people in the 20's and 30's wanted to make weird short animated stories. That's all.

Your opinion is like your spelling, shit.

>>2717694
>What's the point of drawing the mundane?
The faggots who use this argument are the most shallow people in the world. I mean, the fact that you think commercialized art and cartoons are the epitome of the "unusual and extraordinary" indicates that you're astonishingly immature.
Furthermore, realism isn't inherently mundane, and style isn't the only thing that makes a picture.

>anachronistic autist.
Speak for yourself. Your views are stuck in the 1930s, and you binary view about what you consider mundane actually does indicate that you have autism.

>>2718499
>At least the "never gonna make it" and "Loomis" memes don't occur there.
Yeah, because everyone on /co/ gets triggered by critique.

>>2718288
> You'll never find a photo that looks better than a good painting.
Not to mention that drawing and painting in a realistic style still lets you set up your own scenes, lighting, composition, subjects, costumes, etc just the way you want them and create motifs that simply don't exist in real life. The idiots who use the "photographs replaced life drawing" are frighteningly stupid, considering that they don't understand that you can only photograph what's in front of you.

Keep wasting your time drawing boring pretentious "realistic" shit nobody actually cares for or will remember an hour after looking at it while Winnie the fucking Pooh is ingrained into people's brains through actual design.

All the memorable works of realism already exist.

>>2718616
>Keep wasting your time drawing boring pretentious "realistic" shit nobody actually cares for or will remember an hour after looking at it
It's cute you think random anime or shitty "stylized" drawings that people like Loish do will be remembered.

>while Winnie the fucking Pooh is ingrained into people's brains through actual design.
Winnie the Pooh is remembered due to Disney milking the shit out of it, not the original books.

>All the memorable works of realism already exist.
You're so ignorant of the modern art scene that's it's not even funny.

you're all retarded.

What the fuck is this thread

when did /ic/ start writing with teenage girl lingo and start vehemently defending two-bit unoriginal tumblrcore artists

>>2718729
When you faggots made all good artists who've ever come here leave in realization that this place is just /b/, tumblr and autists in denial.

>>2718729

When it got tired of the incessant fucking "complain about and """"""critique"""""""pop-artists for self-validation" threads.

You shouldn't be complaining about people behaving like teenage girls if you don't seem to mind our dozens of weekly gossip threads. "like ohmygawd she just draws like, the same face everytime!" "RIGHT?"

>>2718742
>>2718738

Does critique bother you that much?

>>2718729
I have no idea why it happened, but I think it started last spring. You suddenly just had all these tumblr-cunts posting their shitty tumblr-art, and getting offended when /ic/ acts like it always does.
I really have no clue what they get out of being here.

>>2718750
It was the summer before last during the sakimikr0n shit storm, huge wave of faggotry hit this place. 4chan is a husk of its former self, and our slow boards are the last ones to go.

>>2718749
Shitposting and jealousy aren't critique autismo.

>>2718760
So when someone criticizes the art god Loish, you drones sort it as jealousy. Got it.

>>2718499
I'm surprised anyone takes Loomis seriously. Old masters, an anatomy book, and Bridgman is a far superior combo.

>>2718772
By a wide margin, but try getting that through the autists who treat the sticky like a bible and their "board culture" like a cult.

Actually good people show up from time to time in the alternative art, self-promotion and study threads but every single other post is vile by cunts who can't even draw but stick around this board cause their rampant contrarianism would get them kicked out even at /pol/.

>>2718772
>>2718789
Loomis is just a different way of saying fundamentals, you oblivious moron.

>>2718762

>>2718895

It's pretty funny though, keep it up /ic/

>>2718960
In other words, you have no clue what the board culture is. There are only a handful of trolls on /ic/ who genuinely try to disrupt threads for no other reason than envy or a misplaced sense of superiority. Two of them are just asshole trolls with no skills who shitpost because of envy, and two of them are relatively competent, but socially retarded artists who are angry when people don't automatically accept their misguided advice or that people aren't licking their assholes when they post something. They're quite easy to spot as well, as they do the same shit over and over.

You just sound like a bitter cunt.
