obviously not.
w-what ):
Anatomy fail in like, a million ways
also look at the fucking faces, jesus christ
shut.
up.
im tired of your stupid ass "OH FUCK, THATS INCORRECT ANATOMY, THEREFORE IT'S BAD ART" bullshit. it's fucking
art. who cares about the anatomy? no, it really doesn't fucking matter that the arm isnt the exact right size, or the leg is two inches too short. it's art, if it looks good it looks good. everything doesn't need to be exactly anatomically right in every single piece of art with a person in it ever. that's not the point of art. the point of art is to convey a message, or share an idea. for example in the piece DrSlouch posted, it's Quote and that other bitch with some dog. that's the point. they're not saying "
jesus christ look at this piece of art and how PERFECT THE ANATOMY IS". no.
i literally respect your opinion in every case that you're not like "
blah blah blah blah look at that terrible anatomy!!!!", that has just been getting on my last nerve. i know i shouldn't really care since it's not like you're directing any of this at me, but jesus christ.
jesus christ. just because your art is anatomically correct doesn't mean every piece has to be.
unless the person explicitly says "THIS PIECE CONTAINS THE MOST PERFECT ANATOMY EVER", don't say "it's got terrible anatomy so it's obviously not good art!!!".
thats.
stupid.
i find myself analyzing stuff like anatomy or shading unconsciously and finding stuff bad when they have way too many mistakes.
That drawing has better anatomy than myself irl
uuuh idk I found what zeemort said perfectly valid and i like stylized art-- the point isn't to be perfectly realistic when someone corrects anatomy tho and are you really going to say that just b/c someone doesn't literally, explicitly state that they're trying to do something means that they aren't trying to do it?? i imagine the artist would probably appreciate the critique anyway (i'm p. sure every artist who isn't a sycophantic 13-year-old does)
i don't really know how to word this but the point of correcting anatomy on stylized art isn't to make it "realistic" it's to make it "consistent" so to speak
again, don't really know how to word this but some stylizations and distortions of anatomy "just work" and are "okay" and others don't, if i tried to take my best stab at why that is I would probably say "consistency"
honestly this is the kind of thing i'd expect from a teenage deviantart user who doens't like their favorite shiny big eyes kawaii animu artist w/ bad technical skills being critiqued and not what i expect from you kori u_u
You people are silly
Post more shit art and shut up

thats. stupid.
kori, no offense, you're a rad guy but this is kind of dumb. this is an incredibly weak defense: you're saying that simply by being "art" (as if art is a quality in and of itself, which i disagree with) its immune to anatomical critique? thats kind of only
really true if art is immune to any form of critique, purely because it's "art". do you believe that is true?
the reason anatomy is important is
because art is about expression, and representation. representation of ideas and concepts - but if these ideas aren't represented
well, if the execution does not do the concept justice, then it is
bad art.
anatomy is a part of this. if the anatomy, or the proportions, do not properly reflect what they are supposed too, then they are bad. it is also for this very reason that sometimes extravagant or exaggerated proportions are good - because they better represent or express the kind of ideas that the work is supposed too.
everything in a piece of art should have a reason, or a purpose; anything that genuinely does not, or contradicts or inhibits the expression of the piece at large is a flaw (naturally the latter more so than the former). simply put, "bad" anatomy is a flaw.
I hope you all realize this is going to be one giant clusterfuck debate about anatomy and art and serious shit and I DO NOT LIKE WHERE IT IS GOING :CCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCC
there's no 'debate' here the idea that anatomy isn't something to care about is like literally something only whiny teenagers and little kids do, no Actually Good Artist thinks that seriously
