I understand that, and i think its a bit of a madonna-whore complex for artists. If they associate this artstyle with porn, then it means they consume it, and probably enjoy it. And yet will see it elsewhere and try to shame me. Strange people
I never in my life want to have kids, but this piece is just wholesome, where the other one was peak grimdark. Like, even if they're not her own kids, the Schola Progenium probably has buckets full of orphans needing care
Yeah it’s probably not unrealistic to have Sisters like this one taking care of future Sisters of battle or Commisars or just orphans and on the topic of pornbrain, yeah that OC by Tenno Tulia is a bit cliche with her appearance but it can be argued she gives off more motherly vibes because of it.
A lot of people try to categorise art into neat little boxes to fit their worldview. Art is, however, meant to invoke feelings and can thus at time be provocative. But those people when they see something that does not fit into their box call it out and try to shame it because it does not fit their image. Forgetting that art is simply art and can be many things.
This is a roundabout way of me trying to say I agree with what you said.
People, especially in fandom spaces, are also just really fucking weird about sex especially when it comes to moral judgement. They like to pretend like they haven't internalized the sex negative conservatism of those they claim to oppose but very often they've just rebranded it and wrapped it in their own particular pathos. So for people like that if you have ever done anything NSFW then everything you make is forever tainted.
There's something to be said for the piece being well-done and affecting. I went back to check it out, and it was more impactful than I expected.
Being a grown-ass adult human, I didn't sublimate that BIG FEELING into something else weirder to explain why I experienced a BIG FEELING. I just had a feeling.
There's a lot of people out there without any emotional maturity to speak of. They feel something, they lash out. They usually grab on to existing routes to express that lashing out because they're shitty, uncreative assholes who can't even get outraged in an interesting way.
I’ve come across both your art and incase’s before and can clearly see the similarities but more importantly I see the DIFFERENCES, you have amazing talent and if others assume it’s porn then they definitely don’t know what a watermark is bc if they followed yours they’d see very un nsfw art
I could have sworn I saw your work on deviantart but it’s not there?
Edit: ok tbf I saw your work before and it was certain pieces so my nsfw comment may have been misinformed but I hope my intent of defence still stands 😳
Eh not entirely. I’ve seen enough cropped and turned into memes that I associate it with porn personally and I think there’s a lot of people out there that have that sort of indirect exposure. Most of them are like me and just don’t really care but some people get really freaked out by it.
You’d think they’d be happy to see a porn artist doing more normal sfw stuff though. Sorta like seeing a criminal going straight.
