HELLO !! I’m an 18 y/o South-Asian artist in New Zealand!
I really like horror stuff, fairytales, suits and anything related to circuses. Trying to make my way into storyboarding and story art eventually in this tiny little country. 🎪🎠🪄🧸🎀⚰️🌙
I unironically think we need more reverse harem animes. I need to see a loser cringe fail girl somehow having 10 hot men chase her and worship her and become her dogs.
white anime fans think all east asians are pale because their only source is anime. when they see an artist draw an east asian character darker, they become insane. im indian and i have a japanese friend darker than me. artists aren’t ‘blackwashing’ anyone. you’re just colourist.
white anime fans don’t understand the concept of east asians being dark or tan. they just forget colourism also exists as a factor of why a most east asian characters are pale too.

Yk last week my brother said I should watch south park cause I would like butters cause apparently “im one of them yaois”. i dont know what this means
@ittohourly
OK but imagine he's doing this in the middle of the city and everyone just stops and stares at u and he's just there going off with this insane rap about ur birthday. I think I'd actually kms.
punjabi girl hyperpigmentation guarantees this experience. be me, 13 years old. just staring off in the distance thinking about naruto yaoi or something. have one of your classmates ask if you’re okay and say that you look insane
Imagine being hyperfixated on your OCs. Like only a max of 3 people in your entire life will understand you and only 1 person out of those three will even have 50% understand of your entire word building and original characters and plotline.
i need a girl who is stinky with eye bags and would probably strangle a man out of embarrassment if he did kabedon to her. this is what im talking about
Shape language is so fun and effective and even crucial but people should be wary of their design choices always. A big pointy nose doesn’t mean “evil witch”, or “creepy strange person”. It could just imply they are a person of colour. Let’s not demonise ethnic features.
My controversial art industry take is that people need to stop following Disney/pixar's character design fundamentals of representing a character's personality through their physical attributes (good guy is round, bad guy is pointy and has big nose) bc thats not how it works irl
people say the genshin community is overreacting regarding the sumeru,, but im here showing my conservative ass brown parents the characters and they think it looks ugly and disrespectful too😭😭
@overlordgrape
fr you make one post on how ships like childe x BENNET are bad and here come the fiction doesnt affect reality mfs with the 5 page essay saying minors are scum of the earth or something💀 proshippers are not aware that children irl are scared of them😭
@hesatyr
I swear it's only people who have bad sibling relationships or just no siblings who find sibling affection weird. Proshippers too. I think they just don't understand the concept of sibling relationships at all so they think it's okay to sexualise the concept. 🤐🤐🤐
genshin impact seriously could have made the most camp, unconventional, runway esque clothes for the sumeru characters. SWA+NA+SA clothing can be so experimental and unique (like indian runway fashion), but they went for the oriental stereotypes and it makes me so mad.
As a south asian who half malayali, sorry but the comments y’all are making towards the region’s design and fauna etc (not charas) are just pissing me off. Kerela and South India is full of insane wild life and tropical jungles. you guys really are forgetting us.
There are artists my age and younger that are better, more popular, more successful and opportunity having than I am. Jealousy and feelings of inferiority are natural, but never let it consume you. We are built to adapt, grow and overcome. You can be what you want to be
Not many people know this, but 12 years ago I wrote a children's book. It sat in the vault, unreleased, for over a decade before I commissioned
@hausofdecline
to illustrate it for me. For the first time ever, I present:
You Are Not Special
Does anyone realise how dangerous this development could be for women and children on the internet? Will we be potentially living in a future where posting harmless photos of yourself could lead to even more sexual harassment?
If i made a series of any sort, I would love for my fanbase to have dangerously violent ship wars. I want to see my fans paying $30k to bot ship polls. One of my ocs just needs to be a red flag as a pfp (see venti from genshin). I need there to be video essay on why my work sucks
You seriously thought the anime coomer gacha game company would even allow its female characters to wear anything other than something that doesn’t show their armpits
I hate it when people post the corn plate tweet regarding stuff like this. Animated media, especially the SpiderVerse movies have so many little details in them that people should be allowed to fangirl, analyse and gush over. If I was a creator, I’d absolutely love this

@PhishCaek
my brother in christ there, is absolutely nothing wrong with creating mixed raced head-canons for animated characters- especially if you are a minority.
From Pixiv showcasing AI generated inappropriate images of children, to some guy selling a voice bank of sorts of his NEPHEW, marketed as “shota”. What else is new in the AI world to harm children and create more content for pedophiles?
No hate to OP but this thread is so funny to me because it just sounds like this is the first Indian person OP has met. I love the enthusiasm though, Indian hair is beautiful and strong.

SHE SUCKS!!! She fumbles when her opponent is hot. 🕷️🕸️🪄
Maitreyi Ramakrishnan says her dream role is Rapunzel:
“That would be amazing! And why can’t Rapunzel be a South Asian girl? We know what it means to be like, you know, trapped in our rooms with our coconut oiled long a— hair.”
for any clarification- this is based off the indian movie “3 idiots” and the main poster for it. no ill intention or anything! the song “All Izz Well” from the movie just suits these boys so well. Please check it out
Westerner forgot that Genshin emerged from Asia & the culture following it too, BL. But they have the audacity to force their stupid morality for some fiction. MAKING BOUNDARIES DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN HARASS OTHERS. Our culture, our rule.
to anyone that actually wants to create a good sumeru styled oc, please dont be like this artist and make it just fetishy orientalism embodied as a character. dont make it oversexualised, dont make it a gross culture fuck. DO YOUR RESEARCH! thats all swana and south asians want!
@b_spectacledbun
Its not offensive but its just so enthusiastic its just jarring and strange. Like okay please maybe just be wise with some of your language choices. Its not me even being nitpicky like bro is just acting kinda strange about an Indian character
Pavitr canonically relies on the bare minimum. Hobie literally was a runway model and his wicks are in immaculate shape. People do not treat Brown and especially Black characters right
One Spider-Man wants to change his own destiny. 🕷 Miles Morales returns for the next Spider-Man movie, exclusively in theaters June 2. Watch the new trailer for Across the

now.
old news but again about designing sumeru OCs, especially as just someone who isnt swana or south asian, you should really put thought in care into each cultural reference to tell a story, rather than just for aesthetic. Tbh you should be doing this in general for any OC.
genshin fans don’t pronounce and dont bother to pronounce the east asian names of places correctly, I AM SCARED FOR HOW THEY WILL BUTCHER ALL THE SUMERU NAMES.
@gimme_ur_d0llar
proship/anti discourse only exists in social media. if people find out you get off to weird fictional stuff irl, then you’re getting bullied. theres no arguing irl, ur just straight up getting side eyed😵💫😵💫
I have a loser witch OC called Lunakarna that summons a hot demon because she is lonely and wants him to be her boyfriend and almost dies in the process (they hate each other)🙏🙏 if no one will be the female equivalent of those disgusting isekai harem writers, I WILL COME FORTH
“Mob shows up and says offhand that since tumblr sexymen are unattractive, he wanted Reigen to have self-confidence, not rely on what other people think of him. Therefore he voted for Sans. Reigen doesn’t know how to feel about this.” PEAK FICTION ‼️‼️‼️🗣🗣🗣🗣‼️🗣‼️🗣‼️‼️🗣‼️
