/ic/ - Artwork/Critique

The reality is that this is true for every art community; CGhub, Deviantart, Pixiv and others all attract their own userbase where most people influence/copy each other to some degree. Meanwhile the people who stand out either aren't popular at all, in which case you'll have to look really hard, or they are, which inevitably results in other people 'copying' them. Rinse and repeat. And it's not much different elsewhere, be it fine art, books, movies or pre-made pastasauce. Suck up your bitterness and look around, preferably in the favourites of artists you like.

Try actually looking them up and you'll find they have more than just abstract ladies in smudgy textures. The artwork in the first posts isn't exactly mindbaffingly original either.
