Ok, being a immitation artist, I re-draw other people's art and see how close I can make them look. SOOOOOO, I tried doing some easy ones.

It's very good! I am rather creeped out by Human/Animal crosses though. It makes the tiny voice in my head go "What the Fuck are you looking at? That's not right..."

 

Even though I am terrified of those first two I think it all looks great.

Of all the artists to like in this fandom, why Jay? He has some of the worst anatomy I've ever seen, and he doesn't even bother to try and get better. He just does the same stuff, over and over again with no experimentation at all, claiming it's because he has a "style", like a 13 year-old who just got on DA and is all like "Nobody should criticize me, and if they do I'm going to throw a tantrum." He could be better and actually get somewhere but he's stubborn and unwilling to learn so screw him. Don't waste your time on any admiration for him.

 

Anyway, sorry for the mini-rant. Just tired of people liking his stuff. He's so misleading to beginner artists and a bad example in teaching people how to act in online art communities. First off, no. Stop trying to imitate other artists' (and I use that term way too lightly) works. You won't learn anything about how to draw things on your own doing that, and when you start to break away from that your art will not be original, but an imitation of the artists that you copied. You can try out other people's styles, but make sure you have their permission and they're willing to teach how to draw in it. Mostly, start drawing original things.

Wow, that is actually a really nice way of saying that:3 well, I am actually a really good artist, just wanted to try some immitation art:3

here is some of my original stuff:

[AnonyPoni 564]

Very nicely done Even if it is "imitation" art, I still really like it

 

Also, ROOK! (if you can, can you add his cutie mark in?)

 

I really like the sketching style of this stuff. Keep up the good work

He seems to be doing just fine. Gets paid and has a bunch of followers. *shrug*

 

I like his stuff. I never needed anatomy in cartoons to be realistic.

 

Anywho, your stuff is pretty good, Bright.

Followers, watcher, subs, are just numbers, they don't show how skilled one is, but how popular one is. That's why they don't matter.

 

Also, cartooning is basically making a simplistic form based off real anatomy. That's why you need to know anatomy for cartooning. If you don't than your work just goes down hill. And with a "style" like the anthro one Jay uses, the anatomy would need to be very precise. It's not simplistic enough for him to get away with breaking the rules. The show, which breaks the rules of anatomy a fair bit for better personification reasons, is however cartoonish enough to get away with it and make the movements still feel fairly natural. Though on other problems with Jay's art aside from terrible anatomy is that he's stolen backgrounds from other artists without permission, his character are incredibly stiff, and his coloring is immensely lacking. Has he improved? Some, but not enough to actually be noteworthy. In order to make note worthy improvement he would need to be studying almost 6-8 hours a day for a few months, but he's set himself up in a position where he can't make time to study. Another thing that bothers me about him is the lacking of experimentation. He reuses the terrible "style" he's made over and over again without trying anything new out. Anyway, I've carried on enough. Bottom line, Jay needs to study anatomy, color theory, volume, and quite a few other things a bit more. He also needs to start thinking outside the box he's made for himself.
