    I want to put an "original character do not steal" tag on this so tantalizingly bad. Just, that color scheme makes me naturally repulsed to this pic.

    Cool story bro.

    I'm not saying the art is bad, I'm saying the character is-- it's the same "unique is the norm" feminine male shit I see every day. It's not original. To repeat, the art is good, the character is not.

    AND... before you say "originality doesn't mean a good character", say that to the last person who tried to make a "normal" character and see where they went. Nowhere.

    You do realize you're telling me I'm bad to my face, right? I never designed this to be popular, I designed this to be something I thought looked cool.

    Yes, and yes. It doesn't need to be popular, I just think you need a new prespective on how edgy color palettes have been done to death. It's not like I'm ripping into without my own bias' you know.

    Edgy color palettes are edgy because they work, no matter how much they're used. And no one has the right to tell anyone else how they should or shouldn't make their 'sonas, as long as they're happy with it, that's all that matters.

    Like I'm not pretentious enough to judge them either way. And to bring up a serious point, sure they "work" but they "work" too well and look "cool" so the repressed 14-year-olds can smother it like a baby in the night. It got old fast. "If it works, don't fix it" is an analogy I hear a lot, doesn't that work well with a massive group of people, doesn't it? Furries always try to outdo each other so much that is literally the new norm to be unique. You can see that practically everywhere, and damn is it not to see a character I valued for being different now shoveled out to the masses. Being a pretentious dick is a privilege, not a right, so I don't rip on things because I don't like them, I rip on them because there's something wrong with it. And if it really was just my bias', the comment string would have been more playful and humorous, jabbing fun of the author instead of actually giving critique. A hugbox mentality that everyone can be accepted lowers quality standards established, and I'd rather not see MSPaint dicks on this site... oh wait.
