@mrmattimation Look at any other pony artist out there...They all possess vast amounts of confidence in what they do, regardless of the attention they receive for it. You should just find your own way to feel content in what you do and not shop it out in the way you have been...IE: "I need validation PLEASE!" cause it's good stuff and you know it.

@clayinthecarpet Aw, papayas. I come off as a pony artist, don't I?
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:31:48 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation You make pony art. Therefore, you are a pony artist.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:32:15 UTC from web-
@clayinthecarpet @scoot I also make human art. And Doctor Who art. And American Dragon, and Shrek, and Jimmy Neutron, and South Park, and Home Movies... I'm not artistically confined to those things, though.

@mrmattimation In pony fandom, if you make pony-related art, you can be defined by "pony artist" just as easily as you can be defined by "painter" or "sculptor"...It's one of many titles that you can SHARE amongst others. It's not an all-encompassing sentence of death like you apparently consider it.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:35:58 UTC from web -
@mrmattimation No but the defining thing is that you draw pictures of ponies, it's not that you are restrained to any of those things but that you fit the genre "Pony artist" so people can use that to describe you and be accurate
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:36:11 UTC from web-
@scoot That, yes.

@mrmattimation Not quite. Ken Ashcorp isn't making an entire pony themed album but you're making a pony themed animated series

@mrmattimation He made, like, one pony song though. Calling you a pony artist would really be more akin to calling Eurobeat Brony/Odyssey a pony musician; it's not the only thing he's done, but it's something he's known for doing and has done a good bit of.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:41:05 UTC from web-
@redenchilada That explains it much better than how I put it
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:42:05 UTC from web -
@redenchilada ...I guess... It's just a term I've been trained to take negatively, though.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:42:32 UTC from web-
@mrmattimation Don't worry, "pony artist" doesn't have any negative connotations. You're thinking of "brony musician"!
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:43:30 UTC from web-
@redenchilada At this late stage in the game just the word "pony" carries negative connotations.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:44:43 UTC from web-
@scoot It's only "brony" that has the negative connotations, I've found. "Pony" is pretty neutral of a word.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:46:31 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Not from what I've seen, even the mention of ponies in general is enough to get people's hackles up.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:48:05 UTC from web-
@scoot To people outside the fandom, probably. I forgot that you might've been talking about that group too. In which case, yeah, being associated with ponies is probably pretty negative overall.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:49:48 UTC from web-
@redenchilada Oh yeah, this is my only involvement in the fandom so all my experience is with people outside of it
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:50:43 UTC from web -
@redenchilada @scoot and you wonder why I've yet to tell my dad about being the President of the Fluttershy Is Obviously The Best Waifu club.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:51:14 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg My Uni friends still have no idea, except one who may have seen me on RDN today

@scoot I'd just like dad to know so I can.. y'know. Buy a plush or something. Or not have to flip the daki over when I'm not sleeping.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:52:37 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Is that worth the trade off though?
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:53:04 UTC from web-
@scoot It could be. Depends on how dad would take it, I suppose.

@flamingpandaomg Ah so in this case it's good that it's only one-sided?
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:53:26 UTC from web-
@awlderpy Well, in all actuality I could just have it underneath my main pillows so it isn't showing on either side, but yeah it is beneficial.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:54:10 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Well the next one won't be.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:54:59 UTC from web-
@awlderpy Oh boy.
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:58:43 UTC from web-
@flamingpandaomg Oh such plans
Monday, 25-Nov-13 04:01:19 UTC from web-
@awlderpy One day I'm going to come home to a packaged batpony or dragon dakimakura.

@flamingpandaomg STOP GIVING ME MULTIPLE IDEAS

@mrmattimation Why? Why negative? Who cares what those !@#holes think? they comprise an extremely small percentage of ..well...ANYTHING. You're obviously not marketing to those people, so why let it get to you?

@mrmattimation You draw pictures of ponies. Sort of a giveaway
Monday, 25-Nov-13 03:32:16 UTC from web -
@mrmattimation And don't think for a second that I associate that with any negative connotations. Hell, it's all I do lately.
