Let's discuss tumblr and tthir art. Why is it that most of their art has a red nose and either looks like Steven universe or adventure time? There are still many great artists on tumblr tho

Because they're easily influenced teens, those shows have the largest fandoms, and red noses are a 'cute' trendy thing to make am otherwise boring design interesting/unique (or so they seem to think)
as if /ic/ is any better. at least drawing like that has a target audience, as opposed to here.
whoever draw's the cutest loli or has the coolest looking sketchbook 'doodles' gets praise, everything else is 'need loomis'.
It started with homestuck. One artist drew everyone's noses colored by their blood color/ font color, suddenly everyone started doing it, and it spread like the plague

>most
>what is most of my followers
I only follow anime, so I don't see any of this.

>why do children post shitty work on their own shitty blogs
are you underage?
>Why is it that most of their art has a red nose
because its a fad. like chromatic aberration. it started out with the idea that objects closer to the 'camera' would have more value or saturation, but was bastardized into 'tumblr nose'.
>either looks like Steven universe or adventure time?
>why do people like cartoons
shit thread. you might get better responses on /b/.

Except that /ic/ is harsh on everyone and tumblr has users trying to build a reputation and make friends.

the red nose fad carried over to tumblr from deviantart, but originally came from pre-deviantart oekaki boards i believe
>>2757276
Shut up, Dobson.
>>2760539
/ic/ is harsh on everyone when they're not busy fapping
Not sure about the red noses, but pic related is where I think the general tumblr style originated.

>>2757276
If you ever looked in a mirror you would notice that noses have a bit of a red color to them
>>2760822
well you're on a shitty parallel universe since drumpf won here
>>2760831

>>2760831
This is the good timeline though :)
>>2757276
Because it's easy as fuck, anyone can draw in this artstyle
>>2760831

This is the true answer.
Any retard can draw like it.
Tumblr style is the unholy admixture of calarts and franco-belgian comics. It's where Ouiabeaux meet year-one color theory in background art dropouts.
At one time long ago, most of the art was either distinctly Eurocomic or straight out of the growing digital cartoon art bible. Then the meme machine churned for a few years and this is what we have. Babbys first cartooning construction, euro detailing, calarts color palettes used for background scenery applied to characters in garish ways. Throw in high functioning autism and an obsession with identity politics leading to virtue signalling diversity and you have tumblr OCs, donut steel.

A meme.

kek enjoy having trump and his corporate friends tearing the US economy to shreds.
Hope you've been doing your daily mental gymnastics because you're gonna have to blame the jews with all your might for years to come.
Myself, im gonna watch the shitfest from a safe distance, in a country where people don't fall for the cheapest populism imaginable.
