Mary-Sue cel--- it's getting more MS by the moment!
Update on the seller of the Mary Sue cel.

I think this proves it's "Mary-sue"ness

That's right, "Eve" the hanyou/winged creature/etc is giving Kouga a kiss on the cheek.

At least she lowered the buy-it now to $45 >>;;

Is barfing allowed here, or should I do that in the privacy of my own loo?

Has she actually sold any of these damn things?

nope. The first one (the one with "Eve" carrying InuYasha) was just relisted at a lower price (still $40 buy it now)

You think she would learn o.O

Especially since it is a rather expensive mistake, since it costs money to charge high prices for items at Ebay.

That disturbs me so greatly because it looks slightly like it's InuYasha kissing Kouga on the cheek. O.o

It'd probably have a better chance of selling if it was, actually.

Why sadly, eh?

As much as AGAINST IY Yaoi as I am, THAT would be good... if just for a laugh. That would teach the Sue, eh?

At first glance when it was just the smaller pic, that's what I thought it was and I was like "WTF" then it turned out to be the Mary-Sue again.

Nothing to add, really. I too, am much with the "WTF?"-ness.

Mostly I just wanted to show off my new icon.

Is it just me, or does the art get worse as the MS-factor rises? I think there's a general theory in there, somewhere. Something about reverse-proportionality.

I noticed that as well.
It's also worth noting how much detail she puts into the Sue in shading and little touches here and there--- but when it comes to the canon characters she just kinda draws them in there. Sheesh.

Ah, WTF. A good way to start the day.

And is it just me or is the quality of her work going down? Because that first picture that was up on fw, while total MS, was much better in quality than this...

I'm not? All right then.

... And here is where you can tell she's not much of an "artist." The other two were passable, but when she has to work on a larger set of figures, you can tell her proportions are all off.

And besides that, this image is making my gag reflex work overtime.

Well this just supports my theroy that the first two were images that were copied from the manga then altered.

I'm fairly sure the manga doesn't have characters sprouting wings out of their asses, either. I'm just going to pity whoever purchases this crap.

I'm wondering why a character that has cat ears also has wings. Did the breed flying cats when I wasn't paying attention?

I sort of feel bad for the artist, to tell the truth. She's not only wasted money listing her Sue Cels, but she's probably made an ass of herself in her circle of friends or whatever else possessed her to do this in the first place.

And ass-wings and funny noses aside, she could be a hell of a lot worse at drawing. If she were drawing the characters that people actually came to see, she'd probably make a fortune at cons or through commissions.

Really? I didn't think fans were *that* easy to get money out of. I guess I have to get drawing.

(I feel rather bad for her, too. If she had wanted to sell this stuff for, say, 5 or 10 bucks, I'd have thought she was a cute little thing, but ...)

Truly. Her technique's okay, ass-wings aside. I've seen much worse art sell at higher prices - but it was of characters people wanted.

Mind boggling.

Her art of the actual characters, minue the Sue, sold for $2-$6 on the few I was bored enough to look through saw, yet she expects people to pay at least four times that amount for pictures with her Mary-Sue. *Shakes head*
