Jakrz69's Art uwu

A good chunk of us are normal about the show and love the creator's work, but it seems like she's given up on this fandom for a while now because of the louder and more volatile fans.

To an extent I get there was some explanation why the ATLA leaks were spread, but TADC?? Glitch isn't some huge mega studio and Goose spent YEARS on this project. It's so utterly disappointing that some of you don't even have the self control to wait for the official releases. It won't kill anyone to wait until June.

It’s years of labour amounted to a leak. If you have any empathy — if you're an artist yourself — you should really consider that.

I'm still 100% excited to watch this with my friends in theatres when it comes out! All the best to Glitch and Goose. Hopefully the person who leaked the finale gets some kind of consequence.

Something something dated 2023:

Of course I’m joking. Everyone who posts on a public website must learn to take criticism, because by posting art (or anything else) on a public website, you invite people to share their opinions on it. Of course being told “you suck kys” is going to discourage an artist, but if a joke about a piece of yours makes you want to stop drawing, you weren’t that into it anyway.

also are you joking about their art or criticizing it? cuz youre going back and forth. you say youre criticizing their art, but then youre joking about their art? maybe you should decide on what youre doing first before you make a blog like this. just a thought 

again, youre not criticizing their art. youre making fun of it. let me just quote a few of your posts here:

‘These are scarier than the actual game.‘

‘Ah, edgy Pokemon. A true classic.‘

‘Those are the scariest mouths I’ve seen all day.‘

none of those are helpful criticism. its just a more eloquent way of saying ‘it sucks. your art sucks.’ yeah, comments like this are to be expected when you draw, but enough of it or if its done in a really mean-spirited way–like with what youre doing right now, reposting without permission–will actually hurt and discourage a budding artist. it wont help the artist get better either since you arent pointing out the specifics of what needs to be improved and how it can be done 

do you even know what good criticism is? ill go quote some of the things people told me when i asked for criticism on a painting of mine 

‘There’s too much contrast between warmth and coolness. Try to stick to one “temperature” I guess lol’

‘The shadows are too messy and dark. They aren’t well blended into the rest of the painting.’

‘It took me some time to realize what you were drawing… You could make the shapes more discernible.’ 

lets compare. the criticisms you gave are insults and jokes. they dont say how to improve. its not constructive in any way. theyre not good or helpful. the criticisms i received point out specific issues in my painting and 2 suggest how to improve

also not going to lie but going off the way youve spoken about some of your own old art really demonstrates that you cant give good criticism anyways. how the fuck are you running a criticism blog if you cant point out the specifics in how you yourself have made mistakes in old art

lets take ‘I don’t think that’s how skirts work.’ HOW are they supposed to work. what is specifically wrong with that skirt. oh, i know–the knife pleats arent straight enough and the bottom is curved too much. besides the skirt the left elbow is too large and the bust is uneven, particularly on the left. the tie(?) is comically large and doesnt go down to the right length and isnt even identifiable–so sharpen your lines and erase softness there. you didnt know how to connect the torso and the arms so those seem misplaced. the buttons on the shirt arent in line. the shirt seems like its glued on–where are the wrinkles? the eyes are too far apart and seem dead/lifeless and the right eye is too heavily outlined compared to the left. the fingers are too fat compared to the body. the whole drawing itself is flat and you didnt convey depth at all. you were inconsistent with a pencil coloring

did you read that paragraph? its a good example for how you can be a better critic and i didnt even mention permission. do i need permission to criticize your personality and behavior cuz you have a lot of room for improvement. perhaps you could try to understand social etiquette? many people do appreciate to know when others are talking about them, for one. you only consider real feelings instead of just potential feelings and that is a really reckless and impolite thing for you to do. you cant even put yourself in shoes you were once in–a beginning artist–and while i understand the difficulty as someone with low/no empathy, you dont even bother to think about it. not to mention, you havent considered if theres a better way to criticize–you seem to have immediately jumped for reposting and jokes. youre being dense and you dont listen to when others criticize you, only jump around and try to avoid any self improvement–and i can promise you that this kind of behavior extends to all sorts of improvement including art improvement. overall, im trying to say you need to think more about others feelings and how they could potentially feel/react to things, and you need to consider other possibilities and be open to deep, meaningful criticism yourself 

YOUR SHIT IS NOT PERFECT, NEITHER IS ANYONE ELSE’S.

Which is exactly WHY it is so fun to poke fun at it and ENJOY these jokes rather than scream:

“I TAKE OFFENSE UR BEING A BIG BULLY AND A MEANIE HEAD THEY’RE TRYING S T AH P!!! ABJABUCSIJNCISAALOXS!!!!!”

Unfortunately, people like YOU are the reason no one can say anything or have any sort of enjoyment without getting ridiculed and criticized for it.  It is honestly so depressing. You, yourself are becoming the “bully” you’ve been trying to kill, scream and cry wolf about.

You can criticize without permission as you had done above, that's totally fine, it’s commentary, as is listed under the “Fair Use Rights” on most places on the internet uwu

B  U  T

when you:

harass someone about it consistently

purposely intend ruining another’s enjoyment

target them specifically

attacking them for being who they are (Ex: “do i need permission to criticize your personality and behavior cuz you have a lot of room for improvement “ )

You are doing worse damage than the blog is uwu

ALSO

If you had read the tags, you would realize that he does, in fact, give ACTUAL criticism such as the anatomy being off or the head too big.

I am proud to announce that the owner (Jasper) has given new moderatorship to a few new Tumblr users! We hope the addition of mods will help create a steadier flow in productivity and regulate the amount of hate the blog gets. We are all pleased and excited to get this blog running as smoothly as possible!

but I also wanted to make a tumblr to say a few words on the matter:

This was meant to be FUN 

BUT 

Some of ya’ll took this too serious and started bullying the poor guy. 

He was trying to get a few laughs and shed some humor in the quality of art he found on the internet. 

He didn’t do anything WRONG. In fact, he was rather humorous about it.

He didn’t bully them or say ‘lol kys u stupid kids’

He actually

CARED

enough to go back and let people know ‘hey I criticized your stuff, here’s the link, I can take it down if you want.’

It’s unfortunate, really, that now no one can say anything about online things anymore because too many people are so easily offended by the littlest things. 

What I’m trying to say is:

PLEASE

DON’T

TAKE

THIS

SERIOUSLY

and also, have a laugh occasionally, it wouldn’t hurt to loosen up a bit c:
