could someone explain me this? How it's possible that amazing

soulless overrendered fanart vs MOE

obvious which one would be more popular

>>2771586
Because it's not amazing, it's an incredibly generic and boring picture.
The dialogue on the picture and bright colors makes turbo scrollers actually stop at the picture and give it a closer look.

So the right is good artwork, while the left is shit, even though there's more effort put into the left one.

>twitter

If I post the best drawing a human ever made right now, how would anyone see it?

>>2771586

same reason why you make more mony with inflation blueberry porn than with beautiful paintings. 80% of everything is shit, including peoples taste.

left is highly technical, but no character. there are millions of pictures of stronk woman in sexy pose, even this particular pose.

right has text, is relatable (i imagine its something about being worried about thigh fat), and conveys a human element.

>this picture is more valuable because it has more tweets
you're a retard

>>2771586
>value
Those are just hearts, OP.

It all depends on how much you network and how many followers you have. Someone with no followers could throw out the best painting of this century and get no attention while a celebrity could post a shitty napkin doodle and get millions of likes and retweets

>>2771586

Both take about the same skill to do, (although the painting takes longer obviously) so you shouldn't really be all that impressed with one and unimpressed with the other.

>>2771586
They're both pretty boring, but the one on the left is even more so

the real answer is that the right image is alot more "inviting" if you catch muh drift.

the left image looks like she would chop ya dick off if you tried anything.

Art that has a story, art that is relatable, art that connects with people.
Few cares about amazingly rendered stuff. Artists do, but laymen? Not so much. Well, laymen cares about photocopies of celebrities or people they know, but not much else.
Art that goes viral connects with people on a deeper level than eye candy. There are exceptions of course. Like porn.

This.

>>2771586
If I saw the left on my feed I would keep scrolling. If I saw the right I would quickly hit the expand and look at it for 30 seconds before hitting the heart for multiple reasons:
-it's simple; non-artists like simple things after a long day at the office that they can relate to
-it's cute
-it's anime and a girl
-there is a story in this one and the image on the left is just 'don't need no man stronk woman' and straight males deal with stronk women all day at their 9-5 and don't want to be reminded through fantasy
-the person is also Japanese and you'd just get extra brownie pts for being a jap which leads me to believe if you ever want to make it big as an anime artist you need to pretend to be a jap and know the language to a fluent level

give source on left

>>2771586

I bet left could be sold for more as a print than the right.

Do you honestly feel that the left one holds any value at all?
I don't think you should be ok with an illustration conveying absolutely nothing except how painfully average the picture is.
The only thing you can compare the left one to is other better artists but the one on the right is made to sate peoples autism.
Pretty sure this stuff is easy to figure out.

>>2771705
No, that's thigh fat, you autist. It even says so in the comment!

or maybe, just maybe, the artist on the right can post more often because of less required time per work, and in an environment where posting mroe often is promoted (social sites) the later artist comes on top

like above said, left is rendering for sake of rendering.

Only other artists care about artwork for it's own worth. Doing good artwork will get you the attention of people who care about doing good art, which is not a whole lot of people. It does little for getting attention from the general population. A person with "ok" art but who is targeting the right group of people will outpace you.

>>2771586
Neither is amazing, but the truth is that it doesn't have anything to do with art.

I follow amazing, professional artists who get the same likes/reblogs as me, while any crude doodle by someone popular may get thousands. It really all boils down to how many followers you have.

I don't understand people's taste here. I ask people to post work and 9/10 if they post it I am so unimpressed I can't even comment on it. Yet they say the work on the left isn't good? It's better in every aspect than 99% of everything I've ever seen posted on this board. Does anon just have really bad taste?

>>2771942
That's just /ic/ being salty. Also the average /ic/ user isn't as mature as you think, given how almost everyone here in the end wants to draw hentai.

There are a variety of complex reasons for this but hear me out because it's going to make your art better. Art isn't necessarily about "getting good" ie developing technical facility, but about visual communication. The pic on the left has a polished surface but is lacking in depth (not intellectual, but depth of intent). Even though the pic on the right is drawn in a crude weeaboo shorthand it communicates a complex idea "a-am I getting fat?" that people can relate to. Whereas the pic on the left only communicates "I'm standing in front of a rock holding a sword looking straight ahead".

This is why when I open up my artstation and look through my favorites I'll frequently think "huh, I don't remember looking at this", whereas I can at any time recall a large variety of retarded memes even though they were hastily drawn in MS Paint. This is also why gay furry inflation porn gets more tumblr notes than your shitty pages of gestures and ebin fantasy landscapes of some foggy mountains in the distance.

So really the pic on the right is a better piece because it manages to engage people, it reminds them of their own experiences or people they know, it probably makes them think back to what they've eaten this week, it makes them think of friends/ex-girlfriends who have behaved like this. So in that sense it's more a the more sophisticated piece. It actually uses a communicative medium to communicate. People want to "get" something when they look at a picture, and if you don't "give" them anything you might as well just upload a picture of a blank piece of paper.

>>2771942
/ic/ is out of touch. The type of work on the left is usually a ton more popular than the work on the right. I don't know the context in OP but usually you don't see that much acclaim for generic manga. Concept art style renderings are usually a lot more impressive.

This is 100% about fanbase, it doesn't even have anything to do with what's more striking.

>>2771961
>If you don't actually go on /ic/ to seek for help, it's a pretty cozy place.

Yeah but unfortunately I need a shit ton of help, but I don't want to take advice from people who are no offense, much more beginner than me and I am not even remotely good. I need that one on one interaction with people who can talk with me about my art, but experienced people. At this point I think school might be my best bet. I don't have any art friends to talk to.

>>2771965
An art community like CrimsonDaggers or ConceptArt might be your best bet. I think /ic/ can still be useful as a relief valve.

Art isn't really that complicated as long as you don't delude yourself; if you have awareness and you have a learning / work method, you won't need a lot of foreign instruction.

>>2771942

>You still have an opinion about things, right?
There's a difference between educated opinions and what the fuck are you thinking opinions. Yes, everyone has opinions, but let's be honest, not all opinions are created equally. Calling the left picture worse than the right is basically telling the world you have no fucking clue what you're doing with your life.

No one is saying the left one is worse from a technical perspective. They are saying it is worse in context of what makes an image popular and interesting to look at.

this whole discussion highlights the importance of having something to say with your art. To draw things with an intent and purpose, no matter how simple. Personally as an artist myself, I would stop and look at the image on the left purely because I like to analyze rendering techniques, how the artist groups the shadows and all that sort of stuff, but I can totally understand why any non-artist wouldn't look twice at it. It's just a generic warrior chick doing nothing.

I think it's entirely because the one on the right has a ton more followers and the one on the left is probably misrepresented in some way, like a repost of popular art or it was just posted and the picture taken before anyone could like. notice it has no info while the one on the right does. yes, popular artists can post retarded pictures like the one on the right and get hundreds of likes. it doesn't mean making a pic of a character grabbing her thigh fat will appeal to anyone if posted by someone with no following. also, anime is verrrrrrry popular compared to traditional style these days among pretty much everyone on social media. also lots of asians use twitter these days and there are many more asians than westerners.

"amazing art" is everywhere. ask a normie what they think of "amazing art" and it just looks like an mmo advertisement to them.

"shit art" looks like the highschool art kid finally got around to coloring one of her sketches.
it even matches the color of twitter, it's simple and pleasing to the eyes. It doesn't take itself so seriously.

>(technical skill != better)
>(appealing = better)

this is something you'd learn immediately if you actually studied traditional artists instead of scrubbing concept art websites.

If left actually knew how to make an appealing image, he'd have a fuckton of GBP.

Appealing combined with technical skill is the stuff of legend. It's what every newfag means by semi-realistic.
They're the type of artists who get ripped off constantly.

And you can thank all the badabing-mingding ching-changs with Ruan Jia-mang & other gooks for setting a trend of well rendered but xerox artworks.
I'm not hating on the guys for their skill but lets get real, aside from their soviet level of imagination most works look like they would be made by 1 guy who only has interests in fantasy, dragons & space marines, setting a trend in which every character face has asian features incorporated.
Its like they rip each other off on more than just painting techniques when it comes to referencing & inspired by other artists.
This post may scream /pol/ but open the eyes and you will see that western ideas, inspiration, creativity, style and so much more is killed by orientals.
Don't believe me? you know where to look for artworks to convince yourselves
Its in your power as an european/americas artist to counter the asian art menace.

Western art did it to itself, people who want to actually be good can only look at superior asian art nowadays.
and even among the good western artist it's a giant circlejerk of the same old orcs and space marines, blaming oriental art for that is just retarded, it's just the nature of art anywhere to recycle the same ideas, so people go to other cultures to find new ideas, without realizing that its the same overther, but when the skill level is so much higher in the east it creates an imbalance.
there are plenty of creative asian artists that also happen to be good because their culture favors fundamentals.
plus creativity can be expressed in way more than just subject matter, a painting of a cute asian girl can express plenty of creativity within its craftsmanship, whether it be interesting edges or colors

I've actually had professors in the states criticize students that originally studied art in China for having fundamentals heavily ingrained in them because they had trouble being ~creative~ and ~expressive~.

Well put.

However you also have to realize people will see the one on the left and want to own it as a symbol of "beauty" or whatever. I'm sure you've seen hundreds of beautiful women but you wouldn't be able to recall most of them from memory. Doesn't mean people don't like to collect them (paintings and women), it's just that, like you said, their beauty alone doesn't leave an emotional impact or hold cultural significance.

So I guess more people will remember/think about/share/discuss the image on the right, but the one on the left is more likely to be sold to some (pleb) individual for money.

It's apples and oranges comparing these kinds of art. They're symbols with different purposes and I think both of them are "successful".

>>2772123
>>2776193
Oh and to continue from
>>2776347
it all depends on the context. "Overrendered" can be a valid complaint. If the piece of art isn't successful at what it tries to do and then attempts to cover that up by rendering the shit out of it, then yeah it's overrendered. It's especially frustrating because (pleb) people like you eat shit up as long as it looks "pretty". You're overvaluing beauty in favor or intent. You're making our world dumber. You are the cancer.

Also: people here are speaking about remembering and forgetting shit. Don't kid yourselves.
99.9% of all those braindead normies who like and reblog (not even mentioning ones who just browse) art, fuck, even the ones who buy artbooks, won't remember any of that shit, no matter how good it is, for more than 5 seconds it takes them to stumble upon something else.

They are not going to sit there and deconstruct your works. There are only 2 factors in play here:
1. Can the thumbnail catch an eye?
2. Upon click, does the image LOOK (it may not actually) like it took considerable effort?
If both say yes, then you got your reblog/retweet/like/whatthefuckever.

And if you are willing to shoot poorly made blanks into the web in attempts to meme it up with "relatability" on any of those platforms then you may as well quit art and become a professional meme caption artist.

Trolling and baiting aside, OP artist doesn't even have twitter or weibo. And he's not posting art online except bland 3.5 fanarts and concepts

Where?

>>2778807
Here:
What was the point saying
>he's not posting art online
If you're then going to write
>except fanarts and concepts
It results in "he's not posting art except he is." unless you don't consider fanart and concepts "real art", which would make you a troll.

Also
>bland
Post your work you pedo scum.

>>2778814
His point is that the person in question is not whoring for attention on social media. Barring said artstation page which is, you know, kind of needed if you are working in the industry.

The tweet was posted by some completely unrelated person and therefore got no likes.

You can check Krenz's twitter If you want to see how good a person of similar or superior skill level can do when he/she is actually trying to grab attention from normies. The guy reliably gets thousands of likes without even relying on whoring himself out trough fan-art most of the time.

>>2778814
You overthinking too much
>not bland
Yes, I found his works are bland and not even worth likes. Here
>http://puppeteerlee.deviantart.com/gallery/
What so good about them except rendering? Do you want to "retweet" or "like" them? Wanna buy some prints or poster? Wanna some commisions from him? I don't think so

>fan art = whoring
That's pretty edgy way of thinking.

>of all cool works on his page the one that is literally the most basic and boring has the most comments because it just happens to be both fan-art and naked tits

Sometimes I just want to see this world burn.

>>2778834
Are you an idiot? You just posted his Artstation and Deviantart, which clearly shows he got plenty of people who follow and like his work.

>>2778842
Well, I like to draw my favorite characters too from time to time. I think everyone can relate to this.

But if people who only produce fan-art and jump from one taste of the month franchise to another ARE NOT whoring themselves out for exposure then I don't even know what should qualify for being a "whore". Short of literal cock sucking as in "IRL dick in your IRL mouth" for a reblog that is.

>>2778850
???

>>2778834
The only concept arts that are not bland are those which retroactively get a story since they were approved and used in some movie/game/whatever. Everything else is equally bland, no matter how well executed it is.

>>2778852
I can draw fanart just because someone retweet something and I liked designs for example. Or because of stars in sky. Thinking everyone has ulterior motives is kinda edgy, especially using "whoring". Extremes

>>2778871
Everyone can, but are you one of those people who ONLY do fan-art? Do you just suddenly start focusing 90% of your work around a franchise whenever it stats showing signs of living trough it's prime attention-wise?

If no, then what exactly does that post has to do with you? Did it insult one of your precious favorites who are literal saints to you?

>>2771586
Left one is a master piece but that doesn't mean anything without audience. It's important to get a lot of exposure by sweet talking a lot for views.

>>2778885
What if someone liking to draw fanart? What's actually wrong with that? Franchises don't become popular because of something. Characters, design is one those things. Are you some 18 years old edgylord fedora NEET or what?
>Did it insult one of your precious favorites who are literal saints to you?
I'm interested. Can you post some examples of "art whores" you mentioned.

>>2778894
>Can you post some examples of "art whores" you mentioned.

Well, I'd have to search for one since I don't follow cancer but from all the recent fads, inputting "overwatch" in a search bar on DA and picking out of literal dozens of post-effect-ridden renderings of Mercy, Tracer or Widowmaker usually gives you right guys.

I mean, fuck, here are random ones:

If that wasn't enough, look at these two completely unrelated cunts drawing Motoko literally at the same time, right after that GitS trailer went viral.

if people cant tell what it is at 100x100 or smaller, it doesn't matter

Poor thumbnail. Can't even tell what the hell I'm looking at until it's the full pic and by then I'm just in shock at the messiness of it all.

>left is highly technical, but no character. there
so there isn't millions of generic animu girls?

>>2778936
There needs to be billions--no trillions. If you don't agree you gotta be some kind of fag.

>>2778926
Art should be free or you're whore.

I'm an okay porn artist and I make more on Patreon than industry veteran concept artists.

It's just the free market man. Brilliant art isn't going to be in demand as much as something that has a greater chemical appeal.

>>2771586
I like and appreciate both ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

>>2778936
no, the left image is simply empty and has no purpose. some random animu girl in armor in the same pose would be boring as well.
purisu undastandu

difference is the artist on the left is an actual artist and the one on the right is not.
