I drew a picture at the oekaki for fun.
What was it you ask? If you didn't ask I'm gonna tell you anyway.
A little picture of Juno getting smacked by Dynamo.
But supposedly I'm "Kicking one when they're down"... the 'only' Juno fan left the board I guess because the 'popular' people were making the other 'lowly' artists look like they weren't worth living because they didn't get comments or little helpful hints or what not... well... at least according to the one who left.
6.6;;
It's not a competition or anything. o.o Some of us just draw because we like to draw. Yes, the same thing over and over can get kinda of... well, boring. Found that out for myself. >.> Looking over some of my pictures on that board, I rarily get more than 5 or 6 comments for the most part. But I don't really comment. Not because my pictures don't get comments, I just, don't usually do so. Most of the time though I'll say to myself, not to anyone else, 'You know, that's a really good picture, good colors, good lines..' that sort of thing.
This sort of makes me want to rant about something else.
TLK Fandom!
It's fun to draw all those big kitties and the like. While browsing through the forum, I was reading a question of "Who do you think will be the next artist of the month?" Read over that, the replies.
'Kaz, Kelt, Pegs, Pinali...' were just a few of the names I saw that seemed to appear quite often. A few more artists that I haven't heard of and will have to snoop through their archives.
But there's one thing I did notice. Not a single person mentioned my name. Sure, I do surprise pics, I do art trades, requests, the like. Was I bothered? Yes. Why?
Because it's like a popularity contest.
I'm not sure -what- they're voting on. Original characters? TLK fan arts? Style? Color? Amount of pictures? I can't really say.
So why is it like a popularity contest? I've noticed that the only ones who seem to get mentioned are those that are 'regulars' at that board, or 'regulars' at uploading. I'm sure they're all nice people. But what about those that are nice and don't go to that board, the ones that are nice and rarily upload pictures?
I don't know.
I could say it bothered me, the fact none of them thought I'd be 'artist of the month' ... because it really seems like they're voting on the most popular. The person who dishes out the most art. ._. Which is something I don't really do.
I look at the oekaki thing and I look at the TLK thing and realize both are sort of similar but not quite?
Not really sure but I'll stop wondering about that.
I'm just drawing because I feel like doing so. I drew gifts for people because I feel like making them smile. Not so people will give me praise and stuff like that to become a so called popular person.
._. I'm just attempting to be nice.
