Horrible character designs

horrible character designs

let's post stuff that would make John K's face go red out of anger!

Pic very related, this looks embarrasing

You little autist. Don't let every little grain of sand get under your skin.

Aquamarine is GOAT gem design. Topaz is shit tho. Essentially Jasper with down's syndrome.

If John K is our bar of measurement then fucking anything would trigger.

Gravity Falls would piss him off for having mismatching elements (Big googly eyes, pin point dot pupils, rubber hose limbs, stylized bodies).
He would hate Steven Universe for having exaggerated proportions in all the wrong places that makes it look like a bunch of "wannabe cartoon designers".
He'd tear Wander Over Yonder apart and say it was a cartoon trying to mimic a cartoon while just throwing random shit at the wall trying to capture the spirit of UPA and failing.
He would bitch about Star Vs. and call it Canadian Toon shit while probably saying something about the eyes trying to mimic anime.
Gumball would be all style and no substance, some old man who wanted to get into animation but rather than understand the intricacies, just pooled together a collage of styles in hopes that would make up for the lack of good slapstick.
We Bare Bears would be called bland. It doesn't take chances like it's aimed for preschoolers who are learning their circles and squares.
Mighty Magiswords = Fake cartoon by someone who disregards cartoon anatomy in favor of just skewing shapes and excuses mistakes as "my style".
I can go on and on with made-up bullshit that he'd probably say just basing on how much he tore apart everything from Samurai Jack to Iron Giant.

I mean the fact that he praised Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs but then said it was still a 0/5 movie and had awful wannabe UPA designs, I don't think anything can please the fucking guy.

All they did was rip cirno

>Aquamarine is GOAT gem design

her head is just a circle with no features beyond circle eyes and those gloves and costume look like a deviantart design

it's a British Dora Cirno?

Yeah, but her silhouette game is on point.

Navi, is that you?

She's the strongest gem.

Is this better?

>stuff that would make John K's face go red out of anger!
Well, that doesn't really hold value because John K's designs today are absolute garbage and eye cancer.

John K is a hack

The same guy that loves really annoyingly bright outer lines, large glowing red noses, and lots of neck veins?

Who the fuck cares what he thinks about a design.

This one, according to Sup Forums

...

>John K's face go red out of anger!
who cares what that jagoff thinks

Wait, this is a OFFICIAL design?

What.... fucking how?

if its things that make John K mad it'd be shit that wasn't done under his own control

Not to mention, he's even bashed his own work on R&S. He might as well just hate all animation. To wit:

>He praises late50s/early60s H-B for being stylized when everyone had the same few body types and shorter characters like Barney Rubble and Benny had those weird pupil eyes.
>Praises Bob Clampett's work when a fair amount of his shorts suffer from sloppy in-between frames.
>Wanks about his work on shows like Ripping Friends and The Simpsons when they're nothing but disgusting, over-animated trash. Both figuratively and literally.
>Praises UPA's style when literally everyone was doing it.

For all the badmouthing he does against most animation and art in general (even when he's right about things like Filmation or Dreamworks), his shit's not much better. And if we're being honest, John probably hates all forms of media (visual or otherwise). He's just open about his animation opinions.

there's no way that is a coincidence, it's cirno

>people claiming Cirno
Actually it's Darla Dimple

Look what you've did user, you've gone and made Aqua cry

It is.
It's literally butterfly Cirno.

What is wrong with John K's brain? He has some weird definition of what he thinks a "cartoon" is despite the entire rest of the world disagreeing with him.

Why exactly does John K. think that the world wants stretchy gag cartoons exactly?

I was really disappointed in her design. Its really lazy. if you add a nose so looks a lot more inline with the other characters

Alright Sup Forums, here's the most important question of all.

John K. or Hitler? And if you're the kind of "Hitler did nothing wrong" contrarian, John K. or Stalin?

Fuck john k
He's a loser and so are you

>using John K as a metric for character design quality
>ever

Stalin and Hitler did nothing wrong

I honestly don't see the problem she looks cute.
Also isn't she SUPPOSED to be deformed? She's Era 2 right?

She's literally an emoji face slapped onto Cirno, you're a massive retard for ever considering such lazy character design as "GOAT".

>simple, stylized design
Fucking lazy shit
>complex, intricate design
Over-designed crap

Sup Forums hates cartoons almost as much as John K.

Peridot is Era 2, yet she doesn't look like hot dogshit like Not-Cirno here. Already you're grasping at straws to defend this.

This is Lapis dressed up as Cirno.

This drawing was made by a SU writer and storyboarder two years ago.

You still think Aquamarine wasn't based on Cirno?

era 2 gems turn into shitty little gremlins if they dont have limb enhancers to help hold their forms together

I wanted to kidnap Charlotte and pop her cherry, or, blueberry?

>let's post stuff that would make John K's face go red out of anger!
>Pic very related, this looks embarrasing

This.

no

Not only that, this Cirno Lapis was drawn by Lauren Zuke, and the Aquamarine bomb was solo-boarded by Lauren Zuke as well.

Seriously, it's not even a myth at this point, Aquamarine is just Zuke's fanart turned into an OC.

John K actualy likes Rebecca's stuff, a lot of her earlier work was based on his style.

This said, SU barely looks like what she usually draws.

>SU designs are lazy
This has been a fact since the show began. Why the fuck are people still shocked by it?

>Also isn't she SUPPOSED to be deformed?

fuck off ''it looks like shit because of the backstory...'' I bet that if you ask the people involved in the show they would not say that she is meant to look like shit

How do you make a character that is supposed to look like shit, without making it look like shit?

You do "Hollywood ugly"?

why do you think she looks ugly?
is it because she has a round face?

He's an egomaniac who forever prides himself and his studio Spumco as being the saving grace of animation in the beginning of the 90's and is upset that his studio went under and everyone forgot about him while shows like Spongebob are mega popular and rake in the cash while capitalizing on cartoon lessons he taught artists that originally worked on it.

He also had a very bad experience when entering the industry because he started around the 80's.

>shitty facial expression
>bland wings
>shitty feet
at least post the official design retard.

Every time I see this I feel like my face is going to recede into my skull out of embarrassment

It's amazing how if this guy weren't an asshole, he would just be an eccentric cartoonist with a really over-the-top wacky style, like John Dilworth.

But since he calls everything else shit while drawing this, suddenly this becomes shit as well.

>How do you make a character that is supposed to look like shit

this is not the case, this is just a BAD design.

all of these are worse than aqua.

this
ive seen plenty of retards coming from Sup Forums saying how western cartoons are dead and anime is better and bla bla
Sup Forums will never be pleased.any cartoon they like now will be hated in a few months

>She's Era 2 right?

No

I'm fucking diamonds dude

she's a pudgy smug child that OP doesn't wanna fuck

At first, when I saw the screenshots of her, I didn't really care for her. However, after watching her in action in the episodes, my opinion changed.

Maybe her design would look better with a nose, but I no longer have a problem because she's fun to watch in action. Her general personality, facial expressions, and motion work out for her.

>All they did was rip cirno
And? Cartoons have a history of taking a concept and then incorporating it into a design in some way

...

>being so art ignorant that he thinks unique silhouettes and shapes are worse than a literal South Park character

I'm sure no one else but Sup Forums autist hate the design for aquamarine

She looks like shes in the wrong cartoon

I felt this way too. I don't dislike the design but it doesn't really feel consistent with the rest of the characters.

I cant be the only one that sees it
I swear Aquamarines the combination of these two.
