this irks me
so then, my last picture was of my character, jigoku inu, right? (here)
now, im well aware of the assumption here that inu looks like inuyasha. in the same way inuyasha looks like youko kurama, theyre at least partially canine-type demons. we all know that. however, if people can tell inuyasha and youko apart, why is it so hard to tell inu apart from both of them? for one, inus a freaking girl. she has a figure. she just happens to be correctly proportioned for her height and build, so she doesnt look like shes about to snap in half at the waist.
secondly, inu actualy looks like a dog. inuyasha has cat ears and cat eyes. inu has larger ears (based off of my dog) and a dog tail. her pupils are slitted because shes half dragon.
i can understand people mistaking inu for a guy. shes pretty androgynous and wears baggy clothes. heck, shes physically based off of me and ive been mistaken for a guy. (just because a girl doesnt have a huge chest doesnt mean shes not female alright? scrawny girls do not have huge chests.) its the "oh look this character has doggy ears and white hair, it must be inuyasha and im not going to look closer or read the description to find out otherwise" that really annoys me. naturally i appreciate getting comments and feedback on my art, but "nice take on inuyasha!!" comments make me twitch. please do us artists a favor and read the descriptions, thats why theyre there. if nothing else, when the image catagory is 'original anime' you can rather assume its not a character youve seen before. ok. thats my rant of the day. heres the picture that this rant spawned:
