Kazerad: @KuroNeko: aww come on, if you mean the “horde of dildos” dragon drawing, we have stuff more risqué than that on the booru itself.

Kazerad: Too hot for the booru!

Kazerad: @bluedraggy: If you mean the story getting removed and then put back, it's not your fault! We've gotten a little too trigger-happy with "hide potentially-rulebreaking things while the mods discuss it", which to everyone else just looks like things are getting deleted.

Kazerad: @KuroNeko: Story idea: hero loses parents to a food allergy and makes it her life's goal to slice, dice, and put flame to that food whenever possible. At the end of the story, she realizes in horror that she has become a chef, preparing her hated food so well that everyone loves it.

Kazerad: @Dominik: Neither of them are cats!

Kazerad: @Rick2tails: It's the frost on the window. That 1% of the image makes the other 99% cozier by comparison.

Kazerad: :0 you have my gracious thanks for this Christmas gift. Nice drawing, too.

Kazerad: It's this, kind of.

Kazerad: @KuroNeko: I wish more games implemented the flying kick from Lugaru, where if it doesn't connect you just ragdoll embarrassingly onto the ground.

Kazerad: =D oh my god I love this. The tuning fork from that series is one of my aesthetically-favorite portrayals of magic.

Kazerad: Cat leaves dead present on doorstep.

Kazerad: @Klonia_Managan: I'm okay with all the images, but I feel bad for the person who posted that Infinity Gauntlet image like right before you, and now is halfway down Page 2. Maybe next time through, combine some of the aesthetically similar ones into sheets of sketches?

Kazerad: @CoCoNO: Don't dadshame!

Kazerad: I kind of want to make Movie Katia my avatar on Discord or something.

Kazerad: Just FYI: the image has been replaced with a modified version containing a less ambiguous level of masturbation. The original image started a huge moderator debate over what that hand was doing!

Kazerad: Don't worry, a month of being stuck on a page is normal around here!

Kazerad: I love whenever people remember Precede, as the dream sequences there are like my favorite part of the whole comic.

Kazerad: @AMKitsune: W O W you can't just insult someone's... religion, I think? like that

Kazerad: This was a cute fourth wall break.

Kazerad: Aggy makes this picture.

Kazerad: Fixed the rotation! If it appeared upside down briefly, it's because I have never once entered the correct number into the Booru's rotation box. I always do 90, say "fuck", then do 180.

Kazerad: It is better than anything I have ever drawn on a phone! Good job staying thematic to the vacation, too.

Kazerad: @Zargothrax: I went ahead and replaced your upload with that one!

Kazerad: @Rick2tails: I think you mean foreshortening! Foreshadowing is when you're pretty sure the foot is going to kick you.

Kazerad: =D oh man, you drew a scene that was only implied through sound. That is really cool.

Kazerad: Who put vampirism in the tags!?

Kazerad: Not gonna lie, from the thumbnail I thought the Mages Guild sign was ripped from an Oblivion screenshot. But no, it was just skillful horizontal scribbles and good color selection.

Kazerad: This conversation feels like a "grass is always greener" scenario, with the caveat that people who have been on both sides of the fence almost unanimously agree on which is greener.

Kazerad: @AvisSeven: Fixed!

Kazerad: I'm ONTO YOU Bill, trying to shift targets like that.

Kazerad: @Rick2tails: I'm pretty sure calling orcs "Shrek" is a microaggression.

Kazerad: She is giving a present to the image to the left! Which as of writing this is currently herself in the featured image.

Kazerad: @SlashSeven: My theory:

Kazerad: @SlashSeven: I assume it's tail! Look where the tail continues.

Kazerad: @CaptainLackwit: No, I've taken down a Nazi Katia before. But therein lies the true problem: it wouldn't even be original.

Kazerad: @SlashSeven: I mean, or fall.

Kazerad: =D someone remembered

Kazerad: @Grape: Since you're head in time zones, how about one of you Brits just change it back tomorrow so the Trick Or Treat one is featured for Halloween?

Kazerad: @Rick2tails: I think you mean “looks like a supermodel, wow!”

Kazerad: @POMA: You uploaded a naked Sigrid just two weeks ago!

Kazerad: @CandyDragon: @Rick2tails: I know this conversation is like a year old, but I feel the need to point out that you can literally crumple these posters up and shove them in your pocket and they'll be perfectly fine; any creases disappear in like an hour.

Kazerad: @Toryu-Mau: Are you insinuating necklaces aren't clothing?

Kazerad: @bluedraggy: I swear I am going to make it a bannable offense it call women “females”. To get unbanned you’ll have to do a no-laughter, no-slip-ups reading of Eye of Argon.

Kazerad: @Krozbott: It's okay. Let's all be friends now, except for that one guy who was spamming weird porn.

Kazerad: @Nicros_Man: This is 99% your fault! :C Let critics crit and taggers tag.

Kazerad: Man, come on guys, be cool to eachother. I'm deleting a bunch of comments on this image because it's like six people fighting and it's really dumb.

Some people will make fanart you don't like. You should still be nice to them, and with the handy new Blacklist system you can pretty easily avoid images you don't like. Remember that this is a fanart page; it's not like people are taking over the comic and changing its direction. There's inherently going to be some degree of wish-fulfillment in people's fanwork, whether it's drawing Katia making out with their OC or simply putting her in an outfit they really like and want to see her in. The whole reason people draw fanart is because they want to reflect something not represented in the source material.

At the same time, though, when you make fanart with significant deviations from the source material, you should expect a certain degree of criticism from people who feel your take on it is missing the point of the source material. This sort of criticism is normal and important, since it's how we as viewers learn what is important to us and others. Sometimes we'll find a niche of people who like our unique take on things, and we'll find satisfaction making something they enjoy. Other times, we'll realize that there's simple things we can change about our work to make it appeal to its once-detractors.

These interactions are important, and they don't have to be hostile. And when they do veer into hostility, it's the responsibility of the other participants to draw it back. Like, a person who calls your work shit is <i>inarticulate</i>, and a charitable response is to take it as a statement that they don't like your work. It's not an invite to exacerbate the situation.

Anyway, I'm adding the "Your_Weird_OC" tag to this image, since it's concept is basically establishing one of the characters as an OC. I'm also deleting the other image made in response to the comments here, because it depicts my beard wrong and misquotes the Nostalgia Critic.

Kazerad: @Toryu-Mau: D= I'm pretty sure Discord is not an alternative to Facebook, and that a Facebook hack will not affect anyone's cat fanart accounts.

Kazerad: @Rick2tails: Yeah, no worries, they're getting sued.

Kazerad: Hahahahahaha yessss

Kazerad: @Nicros_Man: We all know that they're gonna, since they have future Spider-Man movies planned, but it would be so amazing if they just threw us all for a loop and switched him out for Miles.
