Fate, as a woman I have to agree with PigeonOnaStick. In all of your art, the primary focus seems to be how much tits and ass you can stick in- if you gave a damn about character or personality, you'd design physiques, body language and attire to do more than just accentuate the aforementioned T&A.
I like nudes in art, enjoy nudity and sex in art when well done. This though, is fap bait with no deeper intentions or artistic finesse to distinguish it from the rest of the softcore porn that litters ng's "most popular" section.
I mean, do soft porn art if you it pleases you, put up wildly popular badly modeled identical-looking anime chicks looking sultry and overloaded by the sheer size of their breasticles if that floats your boat. I'm not your boss and you'll ignore what I say anyway. But really, how can pretend that your art conveys character or a basic respect for women as human beings, rather than fuck delivery systems?
We partly agree in some points here, don't misunderstand me. I mostly work on pieces meant to sexually arouse the audience (not entirely, but it's a big factor, true), I'm not pretending to make just ''artistic nudes'', because that ''category'' (if you might call it like that) includes a vast variety of nudity without such intent (sexual arousal I mean). The thing is that, for some reason, many seem to consider that ''a bad thing'', and that's my pet peeve.
I don't mind if the so called ''ecchi'' genre isn't enjoyed by everyone around the globe (let's be realistic, nothing is), but blowing up on a self righteous morality stand over a work intended to be obviously just sexually appealing feels like overkill. Does the fact that I make many ecchi or hentai pieces bugs someone's existence so much...? Come on, we all have more relevent things to do with our lives (I hope that's the case, at least).
The only thing I feel the need to disagree is on considering me as someone ''unrespectful to women'' just because many of my pieces deal with women being activelly sexually provocative (or having such revealing attires). It's like critizicing the movie ''Sin City'' as ''mysogynous'' because there's a rather large segment of the story where a gang of prostitutes is shown as female leads of the story. It's just missing the point. It doesn't promotes forced prostitution, it's just a set-up for character developement. The fact to portrait something that exists doesn't means the author encourages said concept, and it's even used to mock such stupid ways of thinking (I don't want to give too much away, because it's part of the background storyline of the OC, but for example, this character's neck-lock is a hint of irony towards ''mysogynous'' people... if you feel like knowing the details of what I mean by that, and even discuss the underlying message, feel free to send me a PM and we can chat about it without problems, I'm serious).
This is getting rather long-winded, so I'd preffer to stop at this point, but as I said before, feel free to message me if you feel like discussing this topic further. I stand by my view of what I do and what my ideology is, but I just wanted to point out that maybe many are overthinking it.
Bottom line, if it doesn't suit your tastes or someone else's tastes, then so be it, it's completely normal. Just don't blow things out of proportion. This is not meant to be a philosophical approach towards Shakespearean literature, it's meant to be a nice pic to look at with simple sex appeal. When I do want to take a more ''artsy'' approach, I do pieces like ''Silveria Irthali, Regent of Wisdom'', for example... and if I feel like just drawing something sexy, I draw something sexy... it's not that hard to grasp.
