wow I regret posting this; I honestly like this graphic because it was a cool scale of abstraction but all the comments on this are just shaming people who draw beyond 5 or people who draw beyond 5 ~ironically~ or futiley and are trying to “improve” to reach 1 and 2 and sorry maybe this is immature of me to get angry about but some really mean comments are showing up on my dash now as in “I only draw 6 or 7 when I’m lazy or if I’m making fun of anime style” I mean FucK oFF!! why haven’t we gotten past the fact that there is no such thing as a style hierarchy, especially when it comes to faces god I am so tired of everyone’s fixation on FACES. Just because someone doesn’t want to draw lips or nostrils doesn’t mean they are lazy or because they can’t!!

like I don’t even see what’s so terribly wrong with 9?? I know a ton of artists that draw close to that point that are great?? JESUS

yes. yes. this. this a billion times THIS.

Good fucking post.

I’d also like to point out that those of us who watch Friendship is Magic are watching basically the western version of 9. And yet no one flips their shit over that style. ?????

I made the mistake of reading Artist confessions and this is exactly how I felt about the elitists.
