Jhonen Vasquez said:Got an email from an aspiring artist who was asking for advice on how to get noticed , how to get attention for work that ISNT essentially fanart. I guess the experience on their end is that when they do original pieces, the response is hardly a spark of what they get when they do something referential that people already know.
I figured Id respond here since it would help more than just one person.
You can NOT get noticed now unless you draw referential stuff. Sorry, artist. The universe no longer allows for you to exist without climbing up onto a tower of tired references, eating as much of it as you can, gorging on the festering corpses of what came before or whats popular now and then shitting it back out at the audience you hope to capture, hoping enough of them have their mouths open to ingest whats been ingested ad infinitum into their art-appreciation centers.
Thats what you gotta do. Just get started already. Youre wasting your time if youre not already drawing Legend of Zelda fan art (try cute female versions of Link!), or some Star Wars thing. My Little Pony is big right now, so stop trying to do anything new and do some Pony art already!
You might think Im being sarcastic, but thats only because you cant see me wearing my Super Mario t-shirt while Im drawing Sonic the Hedgehog wearing a Darth Vader helmet.
Good luck, and remember NINJA TURTLES.

...nevermind.
I was really trying to find some way to come up with a post like this to tease the Doctor, but I just didn't have it in me. Too jelly of his blanket.OMG Aero said:Oh, so Celestia has to buy her subject's loyalty?
That totally sounds like the actions of benevolent ruler.

While true, I don't see something like this being taught in a kids show.Myke Greywolf said:I'd really like to see Twilight having to deal with friendship preferences, and I don't mean like in "The Ticket Master", which ended with a cop out. We all know that, many times, that "all or none" attitude doesn't work in real life, and that's a lesson waiting to be learned too.
I think you meant to say did exist.DrForester said:While not totally explicit about it, I think it's safe to assume that while there wasn't a "Mane 5" before twilight, friendships didn't exist.
Ha that's hilarious. I wonder if we will get an ep this season to help flesh out Scoot's character beyond the brazen, knuckleheaded CMC member who is obsessed with Dash.Slamtastic said:*Scoot stalking Spike*
