THIS THREAD IS FOR PIXIV ONLY. I HAVE NOTHING AGAINST WESTERN ARTISTS BUT I DON'T WANT A REPEAT OF THE PREVIOUS FANART THREAD.
If you absolutely must post art done by Western artists, feel free to make a sister thread and I will link to it here.
What this thread is:
A place for us to show off works/collections from our favorite artists on Pixiv.
What this thread is not:
Posting progressively more sexualized material until the mods have no choice but to lock the thread.
Why only Pixiv?
The average quality of work on Pixiv is higher than other sites like DA (blurgh). It also decreases the chances of someone posting NSFW artwork because no one knows how to use Pixiv except the most dedicated weeaboos.
How do I use Pixiv I NOT READ RUNES???
Pixiv now supports the Filthy Gaijin language, this page should show up as English for you:
If not, follow this guide so that your browser is recognized as English:
Firefox users also have a nice Add-on in the form of Ank Pixiv Tools, which allows easy downloading of Pixiv images.
Finally, a GreaseMonkey script is available here.
Posting Guidelines:
Since you can't hot link pixiv images, you will have to manually save the artwork, upload it to a site like min.us or abload.de, and then use the generated link in your post.
Please include a link to the original artwork or the profile of the artist, so they get due credit and others can check out more of their stuff. A comment or two on what the subject matter actually is (if not original) helps as well.
If you're posting a collection, post a sample from it and a link to the collection and mark it as a collection or whatever.
It also helps readability if you limit the width of your images to something manageable.
What is okay to post?
This is fine:
Original work
This is cutting it close:
Oboro Muramasa
Anything less than that is likely to inspire people to play the "what can I get away with?" game.
I'll post some from my meager collection to get us started:
Yanda from Yotsuba&!
Super Smash Brothers Brawl
