Hey so I have a question-

Is Rachel even contributing to LO's art anymore? Like, at all?

CAUTION: MILD FASTPASS SPOILERS AHEAD !!!

I've talked at length about the 'tells' of each assistant and artist, and while it doesn't guarantee that I can tell exactly who drew each panel, there's one thing there's been a lot less of in the most recent episodes that have caught my attention - things that I know Rachel would typically contribute.

And most of it comes down to her lineart.

The shading was always her, no doubt about that, you could tell with how consistently awful it is, how she would take actual decent flats from her assistants and proceed to butcher them with muddied shading.

AmyKim89's flats vs. after Rachel's gotten her hands on them:

(seriously Rachel why tf did you darken Persephone's legs here, it looked so much better before ??)

But there was also her lineart which, at first, I didn't realize who was drawing it. It didn't show up super often in LO but it was always very noticeable when it did so I knew it had to be someone on the team doing it:

The thickness of the lines and the extra little strokes added in along the knuckles and bends, that wasn't something that was really common in LO at this point... at least it hasn't been since S1:

And when comparing it to the lineart she used to do in The Doctor Pepper/Foxglove Show:

(look at the mouth in The Doctor Foxglove Show vs. Hera in the pilot version of LO, they're literally the same)

So yeah, it was certainly the revelation to discover that that one instance of "weirdly detailed lineart" wasn't one of her assistants having a little extra fun, it was Rachel herself. It was already so uncommon for her to contribute all the way back in S2 that her contributions seemed to be more of the exception rather than the norm.

And since seeing the art that's been in the newest FP episodes following the return of the series... is Rachel even drawing at all anymore? Because lately the lineart has felt very thin, in a way that I can't tell if it's her assistants just doing all the lineart now or if she's trying to emulate S1 LO more by using less lineart. But S1 didn't have thin lineart, it had very thick lineart, BUT only being used where necessary to emphasis shadows and depth.

Now the lineart feels very... dinky? Especially when you look at the eyelashes.

That said, there are moments from S1 that had similarly 'dinky' lineart, so take this with grains of salt. It still didn't feel as dinky though as it does today where the lines are practically non-existent in how thin they are.

There are also times when you can tell they're really trying to emulate that S1 look, the pieces are there but they aren't being put together very well:

So yeah at this point I wouldn't even be shocked if all Rachel's doing at this point is scripting and roughs. And considering there are definitely times where she'll just draw without knowing what to write, the 'scripting' is also practically non-existent. It's just her leaving her roughs off to the last second for her assistants to whip out with very little time to pay attention to what's being submitted.

Once again it's Rachel fundamentally missing the point of the criticism that's being made of her work. She's trying to forcefully emulate something that she didn't even have a process behind. I can attest as someone who's been trying to do studies of her past work to recreate it as faithfully as possible through Rekindled, it's very difficult to achieve the 'old LO' look because 'old LO' was literally just Rachel slapping down brush strokes until they looked good, there was no specific process or guidelines that she followed, she just made things look textured and colorful. Everything else was basically up to her figuring out what actually looked good, with panels often having their own vibes separate from others in isolation of one another.

Now she's trying to replicate that look while missing the point entirely that it's not something she can really replicate anymore. Though we do get the odd panel that's way closer to the point, those panels have one thing that she's clearly not putting into the comic as a whole anymore - love and effort.

(fr this panel is so gorgeous but I feel like at this point it was more sheer luck because of how rare it is to see panels like these nowadays, this feels like an accident LOL)

Case in point, this honorable mention towards Persephone's outfit which is literally just a color-swapped version of the sketch that Rachel posted to Blue Sky that got meme'd to death in the ULO sub:

Did you catch that though? The weird dark patch over her boob and the gap in the lineart of her cleavage?

That's because they copy pasted the first panel and then erased out the hands, but missed the part of the hand shading that was overlapping the breast and the gap in the lineart.

I shit you not, Rachel coming up with memes on Blue Sky that she's scraped out of shows she watched 20 years ago is basically the full extent of her writing at this point.

Haha take a thing and make it bigger! So funnyyyy!

(seriously Rachel's 'humor' feels like it's stuck in 2010)

Yep, you're really earning that #1 NYT Bestseller label that you haven't even gotten since Volume 3, Rachel. Put your hand down, there are no high fives for you here.

#anyways this is all speculation ofc #so take it with mountains of salt #obviously we don't have an actual official list of who drew what panels #but it's clear from the flats we've seen on her assistants' web pages and their personal flairs that they're carrying the bulk of the work #i literally have no clue why they put up with this shit but i guess we'll never know lmao #maybe they really do just love LO that much #no hate if they do #but damn #are they really happy with the work that's being put out ?? #at least the work they're showing off is before rachel's gotten her hands on it i suppose LOL #rachel's literally forgotten how to draw #lore olympus critical #lo critical #anti lore olympus

Blacklistable tag update: in the next few days I will probably put up one or two original posts related to BG3, one of which will be art (assuming I finish my shit at a reasonable time). I will likely be posting these under "emi plays bg3" and not "bg3"; large fandoms make me nervous. I wanted to be sure I was clear so that folks could filter things out. I will try to be more consistent henceforth with using that or the normal fandom tags on posts. If you are looking to catch my characters from that and a recent PF campaign (I know I often don't fandom tag asks), "kasander" and "asperia" should cover your bases.

I will try to reblog this a few times at some more decent hours.

#rambling #just trying to be clear and whatever #it's really wonderful to feel so motivated to draw again. I was in such a long slump. #climbing out is such a process of 'awesome! kingmaker art soon!' #I just think I got mired in a list of backlog things that were relatively simple for kingmaker while taking a mental health L and got got #doing a more full scene without any particular pressure or established work to follow feels incredibly good. getting it flowing again. #hopefully it will continue! I do want to hit that backlog!!!! #it's been so long since I had new OCs who fully gripped me as well. I love the usual guys and think about them lots but #it's nice to have a new angle and to be really in it with that angle. keeps the older projects fresh. #this fall was a hell of failing to achieve anything and feeling like there wasn't a reason (debatable) so I'm hoping for the turnaround #thank you funky lil paladin

head filled with ideace...no way to implement them...

#im trying to come up with somethin for lafaye #the main reason why i dont draw her or think abt her much is because she doesnt have much of a story #and then theres the other curse thats not venus #who i have NO idea what type of story or personality they will have #or whether they will even exist #but i dont want their existence to take away from venus's character #oughhhhrhhrhrrrhhgghhhhhhhhh #sorry i feel the need to type to clear up my head its full of Things #i also have a few things on my to draw list #i have to draw lafaye more #and im also have to draw the oc interactions sitting in my brain..........

guys i think this website is recreating misogyny

#i cant say specifics of what the media is or who the character is but like. if theres a character (who happens to be a woman) who is never #directly shown on-screen. but shes absolutely integral to the plot. and it's all with an extremely serious tone. maybe headcanoning them as #a silly ditzy bimbo wifey who believes in astrology and doesnt know anything about computers and her only interests are animals and plants #and taking care of her husband and cleaning the house and she also only wears bright pink and dyes her hair bright pink...... #maybe. just maybe. thats fuckin awful?!?!? 💀💀💀💀 #IM GOING INSANE HERE. LIKE GOD DAMN I THIUGHT I COULD TRUST TUMBLR USERS ABOUT THIS MEDIA TOO. I WAS SO WRONG. BLOCKED INSTANTLY. #also im not even going to begin to tackle the casual whitegirl racism involved with the interests listed for this character. like idk people #loooove to be vaguely spiritual without respecting a single culture who actually does these practices. 😀. #but im so mad like. i cant even say shit like 'ummm think about this for a sec!!' because the OP clearly put tons of time and effort into #their insanely misogynistic post. multiple drawings lined and full colored. like. they thought about this and thought it was amazing. 😐 #anyway... ive noticed lately that a lot of people think misogyny is a dying bigotry or that its 'not as serious' as other forms of hatred? #but sexism is a very real systemic and individual issue. drawing cismenkissing.png doesnt auto-clear the sexism allegations 🫢 #anis gaymer moments #ok sorry for the long rant im done now i prommy

Hello, answering the open call for questions and statements!

Who/what do you consider some of your biggest artstyle inspirations?

List version:

Mightynii

B4kuch1n

Dilfosaur

Hiromu Arakawa

Akira Toriyama

Kamejiro/Kamenoko5020

Paru Itagaki

Neji

Long version here:

For several years and even now it's been mightynii for their use of shapes and clairity in their works which is where I learned how to simplify to what is considered the basics and most recognizable

With the discovery of B4kuch1n, I learned how to draw more flowy hair and express character through clothes and I love how he uses poetry and alot of elements such as water and plants in their art, it's really lovely to see.

Dilfosaur/Karina Farek, I really love how she draws bodies and gestures for her artwork, which is where I get my main idea for how I approach the chest area especially, it makes it easier to find where the angle is at and how it's moving

Hiromu Arakawa's style of drawing hands and simplifying it to 2 joints has been such a gamechanger to how I draw hands and I have this study to thank for for several years now!

Akira Toriyama, he's been my longest influence and as I read through the manga in it's entirety (I haven't read it before that point) I realize how Toriyama simplifies the human/anthro bodies but the machines are what makes his characters pop out more, they feel real as they interact with the machines. I really want to learn how he draw's machines as it's something that I greatly struggle with alot in my art so it's fascinating to see how he bases it from older models but they feel like characters in a way, as it feels unique but practical.

Kamejiro's the creator for the manga "The princess of sylph" and I love how she plays with poses and character dynamics of Natalia and Sara, it feels lively and they can fill a whole sketch compilation of just sara and natalia and I would be so fascinated to see how she explores these two's dynamic, it's just wonderful

Paru Itagaki, also known as the Beastars, Beast complex and Sanda creator, and I'm just in love with her characters just talking, the fights are good but when they speak to each other, it shines so well

I love how she draws eyes and how she brings out the character within the species that she bases it on, Louis with big eyes and strong pride, Legoshi with his quiet temperament but big body that doesn't mesh well like it's fighting against himself, it's just wonderful and I will usually choose a random chapter or read it all again whenever I feel like it!

For Neji, I love how they draw monster girls and how they approach face expressions, it feels rich and you can feel the goofy but also sadder tones of the expressions that are used.

#Hoa's response #ask #pagingdoctorbedlam #there is alot already so I'll have to leave it as this much for now #I list alot about the character and story but that is important to how I approach art #If there isn't much to go off on for a character then it'll feel weaker and harder to draw out with a clear vision #I hope that you have a good day!! #HELLO I THOUGHT I POSTED THIS BUT IT GOT SAVED INTO DRAFTS #SORRY ABOUT THAt

It is so fucking funny how someone telling me to do something is the fastest and easiest way to get me to want to Actively grind my life back to halt instead.
