Anime Genre Swap DRAWING CHALLENGE

[@lollipopsie_5230]

yes, colouring it traditionally was karina "pulling a julia" in the reaction it gets. Karina then scanning it back in and drawing an entire other piece around it with like 5 fully coloured characters is DEFINITELY pulling a karina

[@rubyrider7902]

absolutely. also karina has posted more traditional studio art than any other host! very much pulling a karina

[@kemmli]

Karina is honestly the most elaborate one. Julia gets the “ouTRAGEOUS!!!” BUT KARINA pulls the most insane stuff most of the time

[@marcosreynoso3901]

[@leithramage1785]

Karina breaking out the Copics absolutely blew my mind by how good she is with blending and shading with traditional. To get the subtlety of "this material is white and semi-sheer" to communicate so clearly is a skill and a half. Amazing to watch

[@juanjuri6127]

There's something about JJK's general character dynamic of "this main cast is entirely comprised of hyper-gifted badasses but put them in close proximity to each other and literally every single braincell slides off their head" that would be excellent for a shoujo romcom

[@mikepappas519]

Karina loving Nobara is the most 'that tracks' moment on this show

[@HonestMagpie]

I love it. As soon as Julia pulled that Luigi's Haunted Mansion I KNEW this was going to be a precedent. 👀 Can't wait to see how Jacob and Nathan rise to the challenge. (This is not a mandate, but I do suspect it's an eventuality)

[@normal6483]

@@BR-uo8gk What's the correct term for them if not genre? I'm not disagreeing, I'm just not sure what else to call them. Like, in a similar situation, if you're trying to compare "children's cartoons" to "adult animation" is there a term for that beyond genre?

[@smallishkae]

@@normal6483 the term would be “demographic”- who the intended audience is- vs “genre”- what it’s about. I think shojo fans are just tired of the romance genre being conflated with all shojo (whereas all shojo is not romance). HiroMiya is considered a shonen-romance (which is why I found it so boring but couldn’t place why I felt that way …😅) Also sorry if this sounded too ~um actually~ I just really love shojo and am upset there isn’t more of it being adapted/translated

[@KawaiiChibiArt]

OMG OMG FIRST JULIA WITH THE CLAY-WIGI NOW KARINA WITH SHOUJO JJK I love that they're starting to show themselves do some of the prompts IRL instead of just digitally. I hope to see Jacob and Nathan do this as well, I'd love to see them try and do some traditional art for a prompt. (:

suggestion: disney characters as d&d pcs, as inspired by abd illustrates! take a character, give them a background, race, and class, and draw em! maybe make it a speed draw?

[@jongordon6892]

Reverse it, use a generator for a race/class pairing and draw them as Disney princesses.

Mixed feelings on the individual videos. I do like that each person gets time to be celebrated correctly for once. But I also enjoy seeing everyone’s interpretations for a prompt bc they’re always so wild and different. At the end of the day, if it hooks you guys into the algorithm more and makes you more money where you all can succeed, I care about that more than slightly feeling like we missed some content by having everyone draw a prompt. You’re all awesome and I wish you the best.

[@seeing8spots]

Well said I feel the same

[@gwynethmauk889]

it's possible other members will come back to these prompts in future solo vids! especially this one bc it's so on brand

I love this Drawfee arc of "suddenly physical/traditional media" like first it was Julia with the claymation, now Karina with marker coloring, I wanna see even more of these! And maybe get some guests in on it too, I'm sure Karina could bully Spencer into some cel animation, or at least a Seltzer Avalanche 2.0 build video

This prompt as well, takes me back to high school days of enjoying Host Club and nerding out with a gaggle of friends who had themselves figured out way more than me, and yet accepted me for who I was, strange and adrift as I was.

[@mamaliege2461]

this is definetely my female related obsession right here, i constantly draw traditional and convert to digital very often because i trust my sketches a lot more on paper, and things seem finished a lot quicker than they do on digital... 3 hours on a traditional full piece is like one hella big detailed piece but 3 hours on digital feels like I've done nothing and its some raw boring sh!t. But digital makes it easier to work on more complex compositions with angles and background and you can get comissioned internationally so... both are great, but my confy zone is traditional and I love watching Karina coloring❤❤

[@perfectlyhopeless]

It would have been SO easy to stop after the manga cover was done but Karina really fucking went off on this one, I love this so much

[@hernameispekka_Rebecca]

I like these because they gives us speeddraws more often and gives them a chance to do suggestions they might not want to do as a full group. I don't want the episode style to become the only thing they do, but it seems like a good choice scheduling wise for them. And there is nothing to stop them from going back to a theme and have someone else do it later. They could maybe have a month where they all go back and do suggestions they didn't get to do that year or something.

Mixing the traditional media with digital, gives an amazing amount of depth to the piece, and visually separates the two halves in a very cool way. It would be amazing to see an anime using these two styles. I’m imagining something like The Matrix, where there’s a digital world and the real world, but when the characters are in the digital world, they’re rendered in the traditional media style, and while in the real world rendered digitally. It would be very cool to see, but will probably never happen because of the time involved lol

[@asleegraves4901]

in terms of a love interest, think there needs to be millions of moments of ship tease between maki and nobara but nothing is ever confirmed because it doesn't fit into nobara's interest at the moment. they just are cute and have that two girl friendship that shoujo loves turned up to eleven. i need more silly shoujo ai in my life.
