oh yes I also love the ones where you are drawing someone who is clearly not you. ( I have many colorful OCs with Hair styles, colors, and body types ) and they will be like OMG is that ( purple haired oc with purple eyes and face tattoos ) YOU!? While i'm here like. ( Chubby , pale skinned, brown hair, brown eyes and glasses with some weird teeth )...... Sure yup thats me.

AstronomicalCurls A lot of my friends draw, and literally all of the artsy ones are better than me :’). It’s sort of helpful though, since seeing great artists helps me improveee.

[@Dynocation]

I agree with your rant a lot. Espicially with art trades. The mutual thing is kinda weird. I've never seen that before, but I really agree with your way of doing art trades. For me, I also do art trades with lesser skill artists because I wish someone would've done that for me, and I always seen it as greedy when other artists just go "no they art isn't any worth as much as mine I'd lose money dealing with them". - v - I know art is a business, but doing one or two art trades for some kids isn't going to break the bank x'D The comment thing too. I've seen that too and thought it such a stupid way to go about things. I've seen it on DA a lot more than any other art website. I use to ask them why they want more comments, because it doesn't do anything really. o v o And most just like seeing a bunch of notifications. So, yee. I know for me, I'd ask for critiques first thing if I wanted comments specifically on something. XD That's just me personally. That is an interesting topic though. The last thing too, I've never gone out of my way to shame others for getting commissions, but I've had someone shame me for my prices although they just didn't realize I drew every part of my drawings it isn't photoshop, but I realize some artists who get a lot of commissions do so because they work really hard communicating with others and meeting others. x'D Sometimes social skills outdo art skills. o v o Honestly your art looks really good. o v o I like the style. It's so thicc, it's very nice.

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

Dynocation thank you so much! eheh I love thick styled and strong black lines! because that's how I grew up with them in cartoons and movies. also yas someone else who understands about the art trade thing! it means so much to me because art traded were a big deal when I was a kid!

[@Dynocation]

Looks very nice! No problem! I personally think the thicc outline style is the best style. The coloring in your work is really nice too. x'D Yes! o v o I didn't do a lot of art trades younger, but I started doing them recently and find them really enjoyable. I would just watch others do art trades from a distance in the past. XD

[@flossiebell]

The first paragraph I heckin agree with!!! I do art trades with artists that are less-skilled, because I love trading with them and building friendships with them. :D ❤️

[@Encentix]

Dynocation i admire people who do arttrades with lesser skilled people and i also do it myself from time to time but i get why people refuse to do it with someone with lesser skill. Not everyone will take 3-7 hours out of their day to create art that they might not even feel like drawing especially if it doesn’t get them anything. I always go by the saying that people should practice a lot and then try again to arttrade someone. I know it is hard to draw and all but so is everything else you learn. If you’re asking people to do art for free in exchange of beginner work it’s really not attractive to them. There’s nothing bad with doing trades from time to time but when it starts to be so common that the beginners get selfish and only ask for free stuff then it starts to get pretty rude. Commissions are often cheap and hard to sell to someone so if you really want art from a professional then go ask ur mom for money or spend ur earnings from deviantart on commissions. I think that when it comes to exchange both parties should profit. Except for gifts. But an arttrade isn’t a gift. It’s an exchange. And if the thing you offer isn’t that good then people will be turned off by it. And that is totally reasonable. I’m not saying that you shouldn’t make arttrades with beginners if you want to. But i will say thay nobody should be pressured into doing art for others in some sort of selfless act to share sympathy. you won’t allow a kid to steal just because you would have enjoyed the free item you’d get. Arttrades with lesser skilled people isn’t theft but if you you are entitled to professional free art as a beginner artist then you should reconsider yourself. Everyone should profit from a trade. And while to some the profit is making people happy that doesn’t mean everyone is fine with the “i’m happy cause she’s happy about what i got her. If you want free art then either up your skills to their level or forget about wanting free art and support them by asking for a commission. This opinion might not be popular to some but at least i’m honest. Don’t guilttrip artists into drawing for you just because you feel entitled. They have it hard enough with their commissions so i advice you to also respect the artists and just like you said about the beginners who would be happy to trade with a professional, professionals would be happy too if you’d commission them and it’s probably also good to put yourself in their shoes instead of just opening your eyes to the struggles of beginners and their desired freebies.

[@fishspinejams]

I agree with you in this! Tough some artists who work profissionally or don'y have much time to draw and need to use that time wisely to do commissions and even art for themselves, it van feel frustrating to trade with less skilled artists because they would spend so much time, hours, making a piece of art for someone pratically for free. I definitely think that it's nice to trade with less skilled artists if you have the time to, and if you don't (and that would really affect your schedule, you should at least say something on your profile like "i work full time with art or doing commissions, so i need to save as much time as possible and prefer to trade only with friends and mutuals. Thanks for understanding" This would not only be polite, but would make people less scared to talk to you.

[@UsotheMarshmallow]

Usually when I see "mutuals only" I think they mean that they both follow each other, which makes sense to me, since it's kind of like saying they only are interested from similar skill level/art they like, but without insulting people by saying their art isn't as good. However, the "close mutuals" thing seems really dumb.

[@icyincubus]

I always thought that mutuals meant that we are following eachother. Like, if we follow each other then we like each other's art so we know that we'll both be getting artwork that we like. I would do an art trade with someone I follow even if we had never spoken previously. I don't know, I'm just very bad at turning people down who's art I'm not a huge fan of. I want to get something I like in return for the work I do. I guess I should change it now if people view it as a jerk thing to do hehe ^^'

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

You know I have never seen it used in that way before. O_o like I brought up in my video I have only ever seen it as a way for people to hide saying Friends. ( which they admitted and more than one person ) . I feel like its one of those things where it started off being one thing. Then turned into another so the word doesn't even have the same meaning any more. Hey I don't think you're a bad person!

[@icyincubus]

ahh I see then. thanks for replying!

[@stohrmidae5606]

Yeah, I also see the term mutuals meaning that you're both following each other. That's how I've seen others using it so I've adopted it too. :P

[@poli_zgaming3616]

@@Twist3dDisast3r water marking is more in showing where the origin of the art was created or who made it. A great way to back up if anyone who claims your art for their own. Its more of an insurance and leverage. and a great way to get your name out to the public attached to your piece.

Amanda Romaine Yet, there is no need to burn yourself out if you know that heavy work load will be done soon. I'm not going to make myself sick trying to draw.

[@mooncavern]

For me, when I say "art trades, mutuals only" (I mostly do art on a large Steven Universe Amino), I mean people who are following me and I'm following them. I may not be friends with those people, but it means I somehow, someway, know who they are so I know that they will keep their end of the trade. I also do art trades open for all, but usually have it slotted so I don't get overwhelmed with trades or create a large wait time. It makes me feel good to do trades or requests because not only do I get to to practice different body types, faces, clothes, etc. but I also get to see the joy the other person has for getting my art. :3

[@OnionFairy99]

God I feel the same about ALL OF THESE!! Two of mine are small, but still irritating. 1. I hate hate HATE when people try to sell ponyfied versions of canon characters. Like, they sell Dipper as a pony for real money, and it's so stupid! It's not a new character you can sell as an adoptable, you literally took Pearl's hair, gem, and color scheme (sometimes even the actual clothing) and are selling it like it's new. That is just brimming with copyright issues, and they sell like hotcakes on DA! I've seen these ponyfied versions sell for like over 3$, and it's insane! The thing is, there is a difference between a character being inspired (I've seen some inspired ponies, and they are super cool!) and just plain copying the entire character. I just hate when people try to sell these, AND FUCKING SUCCEED 2. Character stealing. But not in the way you think. I've seen well-known artists attack these poor 12 year olds' crayon drawings because they had similar hair. Some big artist even made a call out journal with "evidence", when really the child's character had the same hair color and a scar in the same spot. Literally nothing else is similar, but they are still dubbed a thief. Now, character stealing is a big problem, I've seen it happen pretty blatantly, and it sucks! But when people are so insecure, and feel so high and mighty that they feel they have the right to attack anyone with one or two similar traits, it's shameful. And it's even worse because all of their lemmings (as you put perfectly) fall behind them because they are biased, and attack the innocent individual because they aren't as "good" or "talented" as the popular one. I'm sorry for the long comment, but these issues bother me so much, and I love your discussions so much!

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

I had no idea about the pony thing O-O that is a huge thing? Oh no I know what your talking about! you should check out my friends video Aroxfexdracona - Someone stole my OC. SHE TALKS ABOUT JUST THAT!

[@OnionFairy99]

Sadly it is. Nearly EVERY fandom (Steven Universe, Gravity Falls, FNAF, anything) has a million kids selling these ponies for a profit. I wanna cry every time I see them, because I know I can't convince them otherwise TwT Ahhh i'll check it out right now! It will be nice to hear someone else's thoughts on it too~ (And any friend of yours is probably freaking awesome!)

[@luketfer]

Speaking from my brief glances towards that side of things, a lot of these ponified characters also tend to use a sort of 'MLP template', they're like those superdeformed Funkopop figures. Where it's the same base just with a new paintscheme over the top, which is just lazy. The being said I have the artistic talent of a dead fish so I'm probably not one to judge.

[@OnionFairy99]

@luketfer I know!! I hate when people do that, just selling a plain green lion. I say someone sell cats with standard fur patterns (like a calico and tabby) and they sold them for A BUCK A PIECE FOR A CAT PATTERN, LIKE WHY WOULD PEOPLE BUY THAT???? And dude, it doesn't matter your art skill, everyone can call these people out on their bullshit :P

[@Moocow2003]

TheOnionFairy99 tbh cat patterns are one of the only ones I actually understand because calico cats can often look unique or, at least, look cool.

[@CommanderWiggins]

The whole mutuals thing works best for me for a couple reasons. Art Trades are a matter of trust, you gotta trust the other person to finish their part, and they've gotta trust you. I've been burned in the past when accepting trades from strangers. I don't tend to follow people willy nilly, I only follow people who I know, who's art I admire, or as a way of saying thanks to kind fans who regularly comment on my work. So I know who my mutuals are, and I can trust them. While I could say friends instead of mutuals, that makes it subjective. And I'm in a fandom with many young members, who are more likely to think of me as a friend when I really don't know them. But that doesn't mean I limit myself to only doing trades with people of a skill level equal to mine. As long as I trust the person, I'll accept it, and I sometimes go out of my way to offer trades to my friends who are of a lower skill level. I don't want to be snobbish when it comes to my art, but I want to be cautious.

[@martinbammes6738]

Stegonography allows you to write entire messages and digitally sign your artwork. I'm all about sharing artwork, but it comes in really handy if you see your design on a million dollar website.

To be completely honest I've been struggling for awhile to draw- just a lot of stuff going on in my life and every time I sit down to draw I just...couldn't. But watching you videos have given me hope. Maybe one day I can sell my art on the side, that's always been my dream. What I mean to say is you really helped me. Just listening to an artist talking about art and drawing and being real- idk. I just suddenly started drawing again and I don't absolutely hate it! I'm still warming up to digital art but maybe having you rant in the background will help me :^)

[@CloverLeaf777]

"Hey, I just met you." "But this is crazy!" "You favorite my art" "So comment, maybe.." lord have mercy, what have i done..

[@puzzleddeer3479]

I really agree with most of your points! I guess I'll give my two cents. Granted, I really do like comments more than favs (though I'm not active on DA anymore) but honestly, you can't expect everyone to be able to write out a whole paragraph about why they liked a submission while being mad if the person who commented gave a short compliment like "This is really cute!" Of course, if it is a gift art or commission for me, I would leave a comment to show my appreciation, but other than that, unless i have something to say or it is a close friend's artwork, I usually prefer not to comment. As for the Fanart VS Original art argument, I get why some people are upset, but I don't like how some artists love to bash on popular fanartists. Yes, It is really discouraging to draw OCs and get little attention compared to an art piece of a fandom which gets ten times more the attention. It is much easier for fanartists to get 'popular' as per say, but can you really blame them? People are more likely to gravitate towards a franchise they already know and probably are more likely to stumble across the fan art while looking through tags (for tumblr). I think maybe they could just try promoting OC artists and creating communities for sharing Original stories than drag fanartists down. Another pet peeve of mine is when people complain about "fav bombs". I know it is really annoying to go online and see 20 notifications of someone faving your entire gallery, but I've seen people who act offended as if it is some malicious act. Like chill, It is probably someone new who found your account and liked your art a lot, and DA allows you to select all the notification and delete them all in one click, so it isn't that inconvenient.

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

Oh man buddy Im so happy you brought up the Fav bombs! I have no reason why people get so upseta bout them either! maybe they just found out your work and found a bunch of pictures they like!? so like what is the problem there! Also I really enjoyed your points of view on the matter ouo

[@myrasart3954]

I'll never understand why people get mad because of fave bombs. One time when I was new to the art community of a game, I got followed by a super cool artist (she draws amazing hair) and I decided to follow and like a few of her most recent pictures. Almost immediately she messaged me asking me to 'stop spamming her'. I was so heartbroken and just blocked her because I did not want to interact with her anymore. I ended up unblocking her and over time I've discovered that she has a very snobby attitude and won't accept any constructive criticism about her anatomy (it needs improvement)

[@Moocow2003]

Honestly that's crazy like on Amino sometimes people like and then unlike a post I've made dozens of times but I can literally just press Clear Notifications and the problem is SOLVED. I have no idea what like spam is supposed to represent but I don't take it to heart either way (apart from anything else it is easier to comment than to sit there pressing a Like button a bunch of times)

[@yarawhosees]

The fact that they can teach you how to get rid of watermarks, is unbelievable. I took Graphic Design and they never taught us that. We were just taught how to make Icons for businesses, making a postcard related to a landmark in a different country, making a flag for our school and how we can use art to create a quick wallpaper or a small gif. Then again, I didn't take Graphic Design 2 because I was given a choice for my senior year classes.

And being excited about not asking for shoutouts and getting the attention you're getting without asking for it, even if it's not much, is the best feeling in the world. Knowing that people actually are following you for your content and want to favorite or comment on it is just wow. It drives you to do so much more with the motivational comments and the support of your fans. It never really hit me until you mentioned it so, thank you! :D Keep up the amazing work and great stories. You've got one more fan on your side 💕

Your rant videos make me calm. They help me calm down or go to sleep. Keep making them fam.

[@wubbleballs2383]

[@basemwnt]

i love you rant videos,and BOI THIS IS SO FREAKING TRUE XD also one time i was drawing in my notebook at school and this one kid took it and flipped through some of the pages,and then humped my notebook like a dog in heat and i was like "yeaahhh i aint touching that.."

I think I've said (commented) this is another one of your videos, but I love your rambles. I like watching you do your art but (this is not going to make a lot of sense) you make really good rambles. I listen to them while drawing or writing so.... Rambles are cool. Not bad. As long we can comprehend what your saying there isn't much to complain about. This is random and just MY OPINION. Love your videos! Keep up the great work.

[@kloerose2474]

Jeez this video was made a long time ago. Me being me I'll say something similar in a more recent video. Then again it would be a miracle if I remember making this comment in the first place.

[@lexc9595]

Your art and skill is phenomenal! You deserve way more subscribers!

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

q///u////q oh my gosh thank you so so much * kisses*

[@MarbTheMonSTAR]

Meech you are my favorite person to rant about art things with. Every time you come over its just us sitting there bitching about art things...and its so much fun

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

I mean it's what we bond over 8>

[@BobbyJoeXForgotenSB]

Mine is when the person skips out on an art trade... you draw and post your part, person makes excuse, after a month, their DA is deactivated then theres the ppl who single you out, you pay for commission,person does everyone elses, quits commissioning when its just you, this happened twice now

[@woohoorandom]

Love your art and your videos!! You deserve 10x the subs you have.

[@kokomis1]

FYI I think your voice inspired a thing about my characters home: SO she lives on a moon in space but the moon doesn't have gravity so everybody has a gravity device, BUT because her family is pretty poor AND she has a big family, so every day at 5pm the gravity goes out so everybody starts floating and so her father has to go out and it takes him two hours for him to fix it so everybody just does things that don't need to use gravity and everybody tries to make sure shit doesn't get messy.... SO CONGRATS, YOU INSPIRED ME TO GET MY FOUR ARMED, PERVY, AND MUSCLEY MONSTER GIRL CHARACTER TO LIVE IN SPACE!

[@Lust_E_Lavender]

I never thought I would subscribed to an online artist but here I am; subscribing. all because the arts cute 😍

[@isramations7565]

Wow! You have absolutely EXPLODED! Only 300 subscribers just two months ago, but I think you deserve it. You're funny, and have great art, and you make really good points about stuff like what you mentioned in this video! Joining now, at 7.3k!

[@hunterjones6683]

I'm a traditional artist but I love digital art. I have a high respect for it, but I feel my art is better traditional which is why I do it. I like to photocopy my art in, fix it, and would like to do it more when I save up for my own photocopier. But I totally understand people who really don't want to do that and it's way cheaper overall. I totally get it.

[@sparrowssong69420]

I live how in the beginning of almost every video says "if you dont want to listen to me and you just want to watch the art feel free to mute" when I personally mostly listen to her when I draw or while working on something else. I mean no offense to her art but it isn't my tea to watch speedpaints, I hardly ever do.

[@Ghost95975]

Wow. I really do need to get off my lazy ass and do my art. I love it, it's my main passion. Sitting at my computer listening to your stories and watching you draw actually got me to pull out my sketchbook and draw too. I think I don't post a whole lot any more because I just put in so much to make it how I like it a lot more than when I did in high school. It scared me that I was losing my luster for a while when my art production decreased, but when I did make art, it took so damn long and it looks amazing when it's done I can't let myself down knowing what kind of standard I set for myself. But I do agree with your rant. I have used the "I don't have time" excuse. Bitch even if you don't have time, you MAKE time. So thanks! I guess I got a lot more out of this than I thought I would.

[@uzuahchang8636]

I really like your rambles/rants. They're logical, relatable and easy to understand. I've only hung around your channel for a day or so, but I'm already having a good time listening to your points. Plus, I really enjoy your art style. It's got a cartoony feel (to me, at least) in the line art, but the style is still unique and the coloring is great. I'm sort of a wanderer who doesn't post, like or subscribe, but I'll be sure to drop by often :) keep up the awesome work!

[@oatesnmilk]

Your videos are so heccin relaxing

[@cupcakemenace2036]

I love your opinions. They make sense. You're a no nonsense artist. Subscribed!

[@michellehicks9325]

I really like the art in the video it’s really cute your channel also your channel inspired me to do art

[@returnseed1returnseed177]

I love your content I have been like going through each of your videos as audion when I am drawing btw I have discovered ur account since today I have been listening to a lot of vids 7 so far..

[@sunny91193]

i like listening to your rants while drawing myself

[@BasicGeometry]

the new "comment b4 like!!" is "dont like unless you reblog!!!1!" on tumblr and it grinds my gears so much. Just gotta appreciate all the positive feedback you get, dont be picky, ya know? Good rant! A+

[@jinxiiz]

I’ve been the “quiet subscriber” for so long now honestly, but I must say.. your art is amazing and I admire your wording for some things. You have been able to balance out the humor with the rant itself and it’s refreshing to see something that’s not overly try hard funny or boring as all of my classes. And your art style and coloring style is gorgeous! I’m honestly a bit jealous myself.. hah. Just to sum the comment down.. I really love your channel and your content, and I can’t wait to continue watching your videos. ❤️

[@samrodriguez987]

I draw traditional and then I modify and post it digitally so same here they are equal . All I need is my program and paper and a pencil

[@SinXI]

I agree with so much of these things. Mostly the favorite thing. I'm not a popular artist. My first account four years ago had 300 followers, the last one 130, now 35. I LOVE when I receive comments. Even if it is just "It's cute!" or "This looks nice!" Even if you give me criticism, I'll take it! I basically do not get comments unless it is a REALLY popular fan art, which sucks. I want comments, but hell, you faved it, you like it, cool. But I wouldn't witch hunt people for it. I rather get comments, but still. I don't do art trades unless a friend wants to since my last few art trades were by people who dab a couple of colors everywhere which resembles your character and comes back an hour later like "Done~!" Just.. *facepalms* I also love your videos, keep it up!

[@RockManOki]

so i just found you and this is actually helpful and good

[@tiajoseph7309]

I just recently subscribed to your channel. And I have to say, I love your art style! I'm a traditional artist myself, but I would love to own some of the software that you use to draw digitally. My only problem is that with me, drawing is a hobby and not a job, so I lack the motivation to draw very often (this is also why I never do requests or commissions). It's not as fun as it was when I was younger. And I feel like some of my skills have even diminished a bit. But thankfully, I have been drawing and completing more of my works. And my skills are starting to catch back up. I'm still not as good at drawing dynamic poses and backgrounds like I was in the past though. Anyway, you are my inspiration! Keep it up, girl! :)

[@529hc3]

Your an amazing artist, you need more followers, and you got a new subscriber.

[@gabukomitsukiva]

Your art is #GOALS holy fuck. I love it. Instant subscribe, and as an artist myself, I agree with SO much of what you said.

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

Aww thank you so much quq

[@adri2122]

FUCKING THANK YOU. GOD. People don't seem to realize that art is a luxury, not a necessity. Personally, this is why it bothers me so much that people expect/demand cheap commissions/art/etc., because you don't NEED to buy art, you WANT to. Luxury items are and should be inherently more expensive than necessities. Of course, I still think cheap entertainment in general is a good idea, simply because poor people exist and should be able to have entertainment in their lives. This is why things like Netflix are so popular; its relatively cheap and you can get hundreds of things to entertain yourself with while ALSO supporting the people who made the things you're watching. It's a win-win. But commissions and things of the like give money to a person, not a brand or corporation, and most professional artists can't afford to do stupidly cheap art commissions because they're normal people with bills and a stomach, not some multi-billion dollar company.

[@TRISKELKION]

I need to make a kinda relative character to what your drawing - A Deer OC ;-; I NEEEEEEEEDDDD ITTTTT ITSSSS TOOOOO CUTEEE

[@ferris3054]

Not even 1000 subs???? This is so good!!! Im subbing

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

yey well i'm happy you enjoy my content! and hey 8D i'll be there someday!

[@loveablekateF]

Wow it's only been a couple months and you're over 7k subscribers! Awesome job, keep up the great work :)

[@ludmilamanna612]

Love these informative videos so much and I agree very much with these points. It's human decency and not being stuck up and arrogant. You're such a nice person. :-)

[@Sapphirerosewolf]

A lot of those get me pissed too. I'm kind of curious about two things that are my SUPER peeves. 1.) The artist who says "oh can you teach me how to (insert thing)?" but doesn't ever actually listen to advice and you can see YEARS AND YEARS of them just not even trying or getting any better. 2.) The artist who instead of attempting any kind of background just slaps their art onto a photo. (Not referring to those who draw over photos to insert things, mean those where the character clearly does NOT belong there.)

[@Moocow2003]

My personal pet peeve is when people have watermarks or signatures that don't actually say who they are. Like some illegible cursive or a picture or their initials. I very much want to be able to credit all the art I have of my OCs but I simply have no idea who made it at this point! if I don't recognise an artist's style I certainly don't recognise their signature if it's an emoji and the name of their childhood pet written in runes. tbh I mostly just type out my screen name and slap it on somewhere

[@kuukrii]

i hate when people make HUGE watermarks over the entire art piece. its distracting and i cant appreciate the art as much as someone posting art with a watermark off to the side.

[@bluezero8557]

When people want too see your drawing book and they only look at a few drawings while skipping the rest then they hand it back.

[@hawkfeather5408]

I think I'm p chill but I hate it when people reblog and then remove the artist's description and then put in their own "poetic" description. The artist's description can hold important things like links to their other websites, their PayPal, or patreon. And when that's removed it steals the bread from the artist's mouth.

[@GhostofaFangirl]

youre videos are goals, you rant with actual logic

[@zapacunotres59]

"I'm doing myself" -TwistedDisaster, 2017 Funniest thing I've ever heard. :) I love your vids, congrats on the subscribers, and keep it up girl!

[@vanillase]

You have an amazing art style I love you're drawings they are so amazing

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

oh gosh you are gonna make me blush so much thank you!

[@ClockworkCryptid]

"A lot of things I like are like, monsters and video game guys..." And it was that moment I could relate (because the majority of my characters are monsters)

[@ChompGod]

I love your videos :0!!

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

Geee thanks! quq

[@loseyourmind8145]

The ringing in the background music killed my ears oml. Great video tho

[@kaydencedoran1505]

wow your art is adorable oh my goodness!!!! totally subscribing!

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

eheheh Thank you my weakness is the chibis~

[@kaydencedoran1505]

they are absolutely adorable! once I get more money (Wich could take however long bc I am too young for an actual paying job #13yearoldproblems) I'm definitely going to commission you!

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

OH wow you're only 13? Color me impressed! I took a quick look at your channel you show great promise and hard work! I like it. Oh eheheh Thank you so much for saying so! You know if you are interested in a commission I do also take points over on dA for payments. For those who don't have paypal. I know you can use a credit card ( and parent permission! ) to get points to pay artists and THEY can get it transferred over to paypal as payment just like any other means of income. But knowing that a 13 year old wants to commission me makes me so proud and feel like I'm doing a good job!

[@venuswright493]

On this day, you have become my favorite art channel. Your rants have so much truth in them and I love listening to your voice. (not creepy, I just find it relaxing) (save me, I'm socially killing myself) Could you get yourself an Instagram? Then you would have something that I could actually follow. * is internally screaming from all of my social suicide *

[@tufluv93]

I don't really agree with the watermark bit but everything else I can pretty much see eye to eye on! Nice vid and lovely work! :)

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

I know a lot of people don't really like the watermarked bit. I think now I should have worded it a bit better. I was trying to say for the people who like slam watermarks ALL over the picture. Well Im happy that you also had the same points of view as me! Thank you 8>

[@tufluv93]

Oh I see! Yea I don't see much point in putting giant watermarks over my images anymore. Like I signed it, it's mine, I don't see a need to drown it in watermarks. But I understand if someone is weary and wants the extra coverage :P

[@Twist3dDisast3r]

Ya see that was my fault for not explaining it properly. Im fine if people sign it or watermark it tastefully. But I would see people who would post their watermark SO much over their artwork it ruined the artwork. Which is why I meant. Listen if people really wanted to steal it THAT bad they will. I mean its the first thing they taught me in an intro highschool class.

[@tufluv93]

TwistedDisastersArts lol yea when you mentioned how removing watermarks was one of the first things you learn in digital arts it was like an "o shit they right" moment for me lol. But yea even still, a simple symbol or name on the side will do just fine

[@starlette7820]

Literally the only thing I have to nitpick about with your video is when you mentioned artists on tumblr asking people to keep their artist comments. like you arent obligated to leave a comment on their art but erasing artist comments (usually for blog ~*~aesthetic~*~) is rude af. Just my personal opinion.

[@litleegg9387]

about the fave/comment thing; personally, and this is just me, i guess a comment means more to an artist. i mean, when someone says something nice about your art verbally, that feeling of just pure flattery and determination, it's a big thing. i'm not one of those people who says you have to comment if you favorite, i appreciate the favorites alone, i guess what i'm trying to say is that i see where theyre coming from. people like that are kind of crazy, but i can see why. so yeah :')
