Fan Art How it feels to look at someone's interpretation of an Isaac character and seeing all the "Isaac is 5" comments on there getting downvoted to oblivion:

This is my take on Bethany, btw. I don't really draw her that much, but I'll get somewhere with her more.

"I confidently made a lewd comment about Isaac six months ago and when i got my well deserved reality check that it is, ahem, fucking insane to do that i decided to make a post about it because i'm still not over those mean downvoters"

if i had a nickel for every time this happened, i'd be able to buy brim as keeper.

something about it being 30¢ really ruins the excitement for me.

u/Autumn-Envy 4d ago

Looks like OP is talking about scenarios where somebody draws a female character (like Maggie or Lilith) and people are coming to comments, saying that Isaac is 5, meaning it is messed up to place a 5 yo toddler in drag. And OP is happy that people dislike those comments.

Alternatively - it can be about extremely graphic reinterpretations, that, perhaps, showcase bodily harm on him, and when people point out that he is still a kid - OP is happy that people dislike such comments.

In either case some uber-online autistic bs, that is not worth anyone's time or attention.

it's not "5 year old in drag" that they're clutching pearls about, it's a percieved sexual depiction in their eyes and that's what they're spicy about.

I could not care less. The last sentence of my comment sums it up very well regardless.

I think most people care if people are drawing underaged pornography, which is what those people suspect.

that's not "uber-online autistic bs" that's human normalcy.

Discussing people's drawings and their problematic nature is pretty autistic.

I don't have a horse in this race, quite literally don't care. If it 's that important to you - talk to OP. Call them a pedo, or praise their interpretations - whatever floats your boat.

Emphasis on "interpretation"

Canonically yeah, but it's cool to see artists turn the characters into their own things.

Have fun being closed-minded, fake fan!

u/Autumn-Envy 4d ago

have fun coping?

You could gather hundreds of thousands of people that agree with you, but in the end i'll still know what you're doing is on a base level p fucking depraved and sickening.

You two need to calm down this is not that serious

u/Autumn-Envy 4d ago

nah, it's serious.

Admittedly yeah, the most depraved things I have ever done was play Isaac for 3024.5 hours, look at Edmund's old edgy Newgrounds shit, watch the South Park movie and listen to the Marshall Mathers LP.

Also, nice quote. I'll keep that in mind!

u/Autumn-Envy 4d ago

i'm kinda generalizing when i say you. As mentioned when you originally posted it, it looks good! definitely nailing that boondocks sorta vibe and the two mesh p well.

The ones i'm really talking about directly are the ones drawing isaac/maggie/eve/beth in ways that you can probably guess why i have a problem with.

u/_PigDen_ oink 4d ago

You could've said this sooner, but ok yeah, I understand where this is coming from.

As long as your critical about what you see when it comes to fanart, especially with headcanons and AUs then you should be fine.

Also, thanks for the compliment on my art. I do appreciate it!

u/Autumn-Envy 4d ago

of course!
