"THE ONLY THING FLAMING HERE IS SUBLUNARY AMIRITE?"
[**DISCLAIMER** for the gentle reader: the links are NOT WORK SAFE. And may contain references to TEH BUTTZECHS. Okay.]
Oh look, Sublunary wank. *yawn*
BUT WAIT! Sublunary is in no way new to hardcore wank but I thought this might be extra shiny and SPESHUL because somebody actually went through the trouble to post past Sublunary comics complete with CRITIQUE PASTEDE ON YEY in 4Chan's /y/ section. The shining jewel of this wank crown might be the first one comparing a background purloined from somewhere else and filtered in Photoshop. LOLZ.
Naturally, things hit the lowest common denominator really damn quick.
There are 90+ comments, alternating from the surprisingly articulate to completely asstarded! Something for everyone!
Unfortunately I don't think you can link to individual comments.
There's the usual array of
•OMG let's see YOU draw a webcomic! comments
•ur oppressing a budding talent! comments
•don't like, don't READ! aka dl;dr
•the sheer tackiness of snagging and photoshopping someone else's art is pointed out.
•the fact that if you post something on teh internets, it is open to public ridicule is pointed out.
•Sublinary is called "amazingly shitty", with a nonsensical plot, cardboard characters
Especially if it's an amazingly shitty webcomic with horrific art, characters "only distinguishable by their hair color" , "a completely nonsensical plot" and of utilizing every cliché in the yaoi fandom.
Age for truth!
"The thing with most professional anime is that the animators :already: know the rules of anatomy. The same goes for Disney animators, if you ever see their portfolios. Don't compare them to Sublunary. There's a difference between familiarity with anatomy and exaggerating based on basic rules, and an obvious lack of knowledge, which is Sublunary's case."
OHH SNAP!
So in short, we have
•Photoshop RAEP of someone else's work
•mockery of the rabid Sublunary fanbase
•That "How to Draw Manga" series gets a mention
•Someone compares this tripe to PICASSO?! I think
•Oh yes, and someone mentions F_W's past obsevations on the Sublunary sploodge factor.[which I looked in past entries and I can't find it! *le wah!!*]
OH WAIT here's a BONUS thread.
Yeah, that's all I've got. Tootles!
[EDIT]: The thread in question is GONE, pushed off by pr0n! Boo hoo. OH WELL.
[EDIT#2}: Oops. WTF?
Try this link instead:

Also, as noted by yadda and kalindi, the wank, it lives on:

[EDIT#3]: Here is the preserved thread sans images:

None of the links work but I think you get the idea.
Enjoy the lulz.
