I actually find his work very appealing. I don't personally follow him but his work is still quite good if you are being objective. And you are wrong. Most of the of the artists that you two are describing resort to post fanart of the shit kids watch these days to get attention. From what i've seen he earned his following by posting quality oc of what HE likes to draw.

Not sure how anyone can take offense to that unless they were jealous, salty, or trying to be an edgy loner trying to stray from the "beaten path"

Cat poster here

I don't personally follow him like I said and I draw myself. But if I were a normie I would honestly take one look at the image you posted and commission him to draw whatever bullshit normie me is into. If I could have, let's say a transistor fanart or even a picture of my girlfriend drawn with the exact quality of what is provided in your op. I would happily fork over whatever price he asked becuase that would be at least 5 times better than 75 percent of the commissions offered on DA.

Idunno, maybe I'm crazy. I just figured /ic/ could apreciate someone that made a name for himself on his own merits doing what he liked doing. But I suppose we are all entitled to an opinion.

Most of his exposure came from fanart. Bayonetta in a Zero Suit. Ryuko from Kill la Kill, Mikasa from Attack on Titan, and many others. He does more OC now, but when he was up and coming, gaining popularity, he was heavy on the fanart.

I don't hate his stuff either, but lets not pretend he didn't ride the fanart bandwagon to get where he is right now. He did.

Exactly my point.
>>2240228
But that's my point though. Sure he has fanart but the majority of his work is original and most importantly, compitent. I honestly don't see how anyone can dislike his work so much that they would spend thread after thread obsessing over every minutiae of his work and fanbase. 7 less they are jealous for one reason or another that is. I mean, me and this other anon work and on our off time we draw, I know of kronprinz and how he makes his art and money. But I don't fucking care becuase that has nothing to do with how I make art and money. So I'm just trying to understand how he can get hate from the posters on here that aren't 7 years old or younger. Serious question.

His skills, while good, aren't good enough to carry him alone. I'm just saying he road the fanart bandwagon to market himself, like most internet based artists do. When your skills are competent enough, fanart is your key to gaining traction easily. He makes OC, but it wasn't what was marketing him, it was the fanart.

Literally all I see in my DA recommended art ads when I look at artists not even related to the guy are literally his oc's. I have maybe seen 2 or 3 of the fanarts posted by that other anon a grand total of once each (that's why I forgot he even had fanart to be honest).

And every time I see his art on there I think two things every time. One is that "that's pretty good" and two is I bet that's kronprinz's. No anon, you are underestimating how well his original work resonates with normies and amateurs alike. I don't claim to know how much fanart he drew when he was coming up for attention (i'd venture to say alot). But the artist I am speaking about skilled enough that threads like this for jealous anons like the op and the first few posters should not exist. There are worse artists out there that deserve the hate he is getting just for being "too popular".

I mean how insecure do you have to be to want to talk about someone like a bunch of kekling housewives all day?

>No anon, you are underestimating how well his original work resonates with normies and amateurs alike.

And you don't seem to understand that "normies" and amateurs don't start really caring about your art unless you draw something relevant to their interest. An extremely easy way to do this is through fanart for things they like and care about. That's when they will start to like/share your work for others to look at. The only instance where you don't need to do this is when you're at a high level where the work is really engaging to look at in it's own right (see Kim Jung Gi). Kr0n obviously isn't at that level. I'd argue he isn't even near it. And when you aren't at that level but competent and want easy attention, you go the fanart route, which Kr0n did, like most internet artists. You forgetting he did fanart is irrelevant to the fact that his popularity came from the fanart. It did the promoting for him and caused his boom into popularity. That's what fanart does. Since then his presence has only been climbing at a snail's pace. And even with his popularity boom, his popularity is still nothing compared to people like Loish or Artgerm.

What is your point? what does that have to do with the thread? They are still wildly popular, look good, and are original. And objectively speaking, more well received than his fanart which rips a whole in that other moronic and ill-contrived point you tried to make earlier.

You offer two works that you say are original, but they copy so much from popular existing themes (ie: maid and cat ears). As I said, he did them himself but they are not original in theme/idea/composition/lighting/or color temperature; which I don't consider 'original works' very much.
Something being popular doesn't speak to it's skill and I would argue that it looks mediocre when compared to other major artists (even sakimichan).

I mean shit, after seeing this thread I looked up his older drawings and favorited 2 of them a second ago because I thought they were cool.

You're completely ignoring what I'm saying, I'm not arguing that those are fanart pieces. I am saying that they are pieces that copy themes and ideas that are very popular (ie: cat ears and maid outfits); which I would interpret as not being original concepts.
You ignoring my argument is a pretty good testament that you have no argument, keep projecting though.

his personal taste in subject matter matters little. Lots of artists on da and tumblr post "themes" like those that he produces so what is your point. It is still his original spin on the theme so your point is mute. And don't bother trying to say that they aren't original because i'll just point you to the dictionary definition of the word and say something about how someone can take one look at his drawings and instantly know that it's his.

The bullshit you are trying to argue right now about kron is literally just as stupid as me saying this sakimichan that you love so much is copying "shiney skin" and "glowing sparkles" themes that have been done a million times already. SO THE FUCK WHAT? Those are still elements that any artist has at their disposal should they want to appropriate them or not. And yet you find joy in studying and obsessing over these "themes" because... why do you find joy in this again? You never did answer.

It's safe to say that maybe 3 anons are at kronz level in terms of skill and non of them post regularly so I'll go on a limb and say you can't draw as well as him. So are you just jealous of the success of a popular artist or something?

You're like a big giant pot filled with things bad artists think.
Shiny skin and glowing sparkles aren't themes - paintings that show the Crucifixion are religiously themed -- a theme is the general idea that a painting is trying to get across. Ideas are a bit more specific and have to do with imagery; the objects in an image and how they're placed. The objects like cat-ears or maid outfits are commonly found in cat-girl themed drawings and maid outfit themed drawings, which are very common in the anime/japanese scene. The idea of a girl wearing cat ears of a maid outfit is very cliche and overdone.
It doesn't matter how many people do the same shit that he does, if anything that just further emphasizes what I mean by how those paintings are unoriginal in their ideas and compositions.
I don't see how you can think those are original spins on girls with cat ears or girls in maid outfits; they're literally just that. They are trying to portray cute young attractive girls faces wearing these objects -- not very original since portraiture is literally everywhere -- not even his stylization is original. Large eyed girls with small noses/mouths that look very girlish are nothing new -- and to make matters worse, both of those girls have the same face.
Moot not mute.
Drawing as well as him doesn't matter when I'm not arguing over his technical ability, however I will say that I am pretty confident I can draw/paint some things better than he does. Even with that, a person who is popular is not shielded from criticism because they're popular-

Let me ask you this. Do you honestly think I couldn't pist at least 10 more drawings on here that didn't have cat ears or maids that are just as popular? I literally grabbed the first two drawings I could find on his page. Most of his work are just anime grill in the city or whatever so what are you talking about? And you have yet to link a single piece of evidence to back up any of the moronic claims you are making. You say his "themes" are overused and unoriginal? Then citation needed. Post other anime drawings with 5 drawings with the same color pallet as one of his works that came before his and are better recieved. Then I'll know for a fact that he is just the fried that you claim him to be. If you can't do that then I'm just waiting my time with an idiot that is confusing facts with opinions like every other moron on this board.

Not sure why people never address this point when they say "oh, yeah, I know exactly why they are popular, they follow a very predictable formula blabla". Why can't the thousands of other artists who pander to plebs with fanart do it?

We established this at the start of the thread. While you never backed it up as factual I agreed that he did use fanart to gain a following moron lol. But his fanart is nothing compared to the personal work that he now makes that eclipses the fanart which you can physically see by comparing the numbers on da.

Is that really the only reason for Hating him? Becuase he does what every other artist does for attention? That is fucking retarded and not a good justification for me have to see these threads twice a week. Get a fucking life and grow up.

Not him, but what personal work are you talking about that eclipses his fanart? I just checked his DA gallery for his newest work and by far his most viewed new pieces are MGS5 fanart.

And this is false. Even some of his older fanarts trump his personal work (like his Ryuko piece). Hell, fanart is even featured on his fucking dA page and is the first thing you see. You think Mathilda is an original work? Have you never seen Leon the Professional? That composition is from a screen cap from the movie itself. Not to mention his "personal work" deal with tropes that were popular before he showed up. He's a follower of the trends, not a trendsetter, like most internet artists. His art isn't good enough to set trends. That's fact. Acknowledging that isn't hate, you're just got his dick up your ass for whatever reason.

And here, pic related is another fanart piece that trumps just about all of his original works. So again, his fanart is why people start to care about his art, that hasn't changed and it won't change because all he's doing is following trends, be them fanart or popular tropes.

how about this, you go ahead and post another artist that you deem to be better than he is that doesn't use those disgusting "trendy tropes" that you hate so much and lets see if we can't find any that they use.

true that quite drawing was very popular. But the other two mgs5 drawings weren't received as well as this piece that was posted on the same day as the quite one. But as I was telling the pathetic moron in the thread I agree that he has fanart posted on there that is well received to. But since that's his only thing to bring to the table it's funny watching him try to blurt it out in every post to try to "get one over on me"

The personal piece only fell short by about 5000 posts which is still an amazing number all the same. Too bad he used trendy "glove tropes" to get views on it though, that's why it sucks lol

and as you can see here he's even so low as to use girl standing in traffic tropes that are practically just as bad as tagging steven universe. He needs to be stopped.

Most internet based artists don't set trends. They follow them. Most of the trendsetters are exceptional artists, corporations, and/or indie devs actually making products. Why am I even explaining this? This should be obvious. Kr0n isn't exceptional, but he's good enough to gain traction from following the herd rather than doing his own thing. If he was exceptionally good, he would be able to do his own thing and still get a shitload of attention, like KJG.

>>2240831
Kim Jung Gi. He's the guy art exhibits are flying out to do live performance demonstrations, not Kr0n.

Then you have Artgerm, who's officially commissioned by corporations like Capcom, Marvel, DC, etc. (the IP holders) to draw art of their characters on numerous occasions. Those corporations aren't coming to Kr0n willing to paying him. He's doing it for free.
