My little ponies: rant. sorry.
12 years ago
Okay, so, recently I get back online after several long periods of being disconnected, and I get my paypal account all ready for comissions. Then I think I had better get some practice in, so I ask around for requests and someone says to me, "oh! do me some pony art"
I told this person, sorry I cant do pony art. its not a style i'm good at. (a lot of pony fans want art in the exact style of the show for some reason) then I go to bed.
next morning six people have left messages saying they're blocking me because of my pony hate, and I have several hate emails.
so, here are some points for all you pony fans out there.
1: it IS a cartoon show. the morals are good, but you should go too far with any work of fiction.
2: not every artist has to spend their lives churning out pony stuff. artists have their own tastes too. Thats why a lot of artists have separate accounts for pony stuff. they dont want to get tied into it.
3: people, hating me because I dont watch EVERY episode, draw them all the time, play with the toys, listen to the music, etc? hating? really? did you never actually listen to anything the characters were saying? just read the tagline. "freindship is magical" not "freindship is to be restricted only to people who like what you like"
get some perspective here.
so, to sum up, no pony art from me, I just dont do it. I just CANT do it.

= | this is why a lot of people hate the mlp fan base. they can be bona fide idiots who think they are some sort of super special awesome group of people. Though, as a whole, i do not understand the need to be obsessive over anything. I may like something a lot, but i don't shit my pants over every little thing about that one thing. At least i know some fans of mlp that aren't like that, but i want to strangle the ones that are to shake some sense into them.
