It might be sacrilege around these parts, but I genuinely liked Kris Anka's art and redesigns. Christ, the late 00s/early 10s era of Marvel seems so recent yet it was more than a decade ago... It's as if after the Image Renaissance and Secret Wars everything just stopped.

PROBLEMATIC
The only people who enjoy this fat homosexual’s art and particularly his redesigns are men-in-dresses and homosexuals. Frick off you baiting shit smear.
Everyone's a critic around here. Why don't you get some taste for once?
>get some taste and embrace fat dyke-ish women and homosexual effeminate men!
Frick off you baiting shit smear.
Actually look into his body of work before criticizing it, you ignorant fool.
>literally posts a mannish girl who happens to have a cute face
This is terrible, you just seem to think masculine girls are hot. He probably drew him with chode before adding the skirt. He’s well known for his troony proclivities.
Have you got eyes or are you just moving goal posts?
anon didnt move any goalposts. Without weighing in it appears you two just have a different definition of feminine, apparently.
>if you don’t like someone’s work you must just be unfamiliar with their social media posts?
Why do you homosexuals imagine Instagram scribbles matter or are more important than official work? I see this shit all the time
Because an artists body of work doesn't solely lie within official pieces? If their artwork can clearly show he's capable of what you complain he lacks. Then wouldn't you think it's not just him but the team when conceptualizing these designs in the official property?
>If their artwork can clearly show he's capable of what you complain he lacks
The example didn’t do that though…
How so? Did you not see his rendition of Emma Frost earlier in the thread or no?
The poorly traced sketch with a background so pixelated it looks like it was rendered on a Super Nintendo? What does that have to do with his terrible feminized men and dyke inspired official redesigns or his inability to draw anything that isn’t traced? How does a doodle for social media outweigh his actual work?
>his Top 5 are literally straight white stoic men
>because he's a homosexual homosexual that makes his art something only homosexuals can like
I don't follow the logic. It's not like he's a writer.
>because he's a homosexual homosexual that makes his art something only homosexuals can like
His MAWS and Spider-verse designs are some of the gayest, brownies pieces of shit I’ve ever seen in my life.
Then that's a (you) problem isn't it?
Although I am not a fan of how he leans his costume design into that MCU "tacticool" aesthetic. I do enjoy his arts style for the most part. And for anyone who complains about his art, purely due to his sexuality. Then you should understand that he's into women as well as men. If this rendition of Emma Frost doesn't say anything, then I don't know what will.
Are you samegayging or passing around the crazy pills for the group? it’s just poorly traced stock images how can you act like his art is good in any way shape or form?
>it’s just poorly traced stock images
Citation needed.
My fricking eyes. The poor weight distribution and atrocious anatomy of the figures, the slight inconsistent lines, and lazy poses are a tell tale sign.
>atrocious anatomy of the figures
Is it traced or is it bad anatomy? If it's traced it's following real anatomy by virtue of the fact that it's traced over something real.
The bad anatomy is because it’s traced. He drew scribbles in random places atop extremely flattened, simplified bodies where he imagined musculature and shadow would appear. It’s an obvious tell-tale sign of all low skill tracers, gerads particularly early on in his career was the same.
Cap and IF have no chest or midriff. Look at the flatness of IF’s belt as well. No overhang or overlap of the lines it looks like it’s part of the fabric. Look at his hand, to the right (his left) of the fingers the perspective is all fricked up and not in a logical way, in a way that only results from trying to trace a stock image.
ok grampa, here's a john buscema book. go relax
Why would it be sacrelige? You should like whatever the frick you like for whatever reason you like.
I like anka's twinks, and hate...well, really absolutely everything else he does.
Anka is NOT gay?
I had no idea.
LOL. Calm down.
I mostly just hate the Carol redesign tbh
The costume is fine. Other designs Anka's done seem kind of generic, like that Spider-Woman one
Fair critique.
I'm going go assume he only does covers now
I don't know if he even does that anymore. Isn't he now working within animation only?
For a second there I though this was fanart of the 2011 Defenders, you know since Namor, Iron Fist, and Nick Fury are all in this shot. Then I realized that Captain America is also here and I'm an idiot.
So Kris Anka... I've never heard of them before. Can someone give me a rundown on who they are and why they're disliked?
Anka is a comic book artist whose known for his work on X-Men, Star-Lord, Captain Marvel, and Runaways. His most recent work was outside of the comic book industry as lead character designer in Across the Spider-Verse. He's generally not liked around here for his character designs, while I agree that he leans a bit to heavy in the tacticool look for his costume design. I don't mind his work overall. There are also those that don't like how he illustrates women with a good amount of them as being drawn as very heavyset and broad. While the men can come off as somewhat flamboyant. That and knowing this platform, plenty around here aren't too fond of him due to his bisexuality.
Has nothing to do with his sexuality other than it being the reason he panders to weirdos on Twitter with fat dyke redesigns and effeminate gay bait male redesigns.
The tacticool shit isn’t nearly as prominent in his designs as the just complete and utter disregard for heteronormative, faithful designs. Notice OP chose a poorly traced with not one single redesign in it at all rather than one of the MAWS or ATSV redesigns/designs ?
>heteronormative
You are really hung up about sexuality then, if that's a priority. No one sensible would be looking that deep into it.
>never heard of them before
>but I know his pronouns
Frick off Anka, you’re a homosexual
You're absolutely mindbroken.
Anka was popular with the Project Rooftop crowd, a blog that did (bad) redesigns of superheroes. He got hired by Marvel to be an artist and also for a while during the latter half of the 2010s was pretty much the go to character designer for the company. He's more or less directly responsible for the proliferation of cosplayish practicool outfits everybody was sporting.
That and making women look like men and men all look gay.
Well yeah because he's a homosexual who has no attraction to the female form.
Because Iron Fist's chin/neck look more like Namor's arm since there's no shading or anything to separate them.
>he's a homosexual who has no attraction to the female form.
First off you're ignorant, and two he clearly does since he's bisexual.
>bisexual
Right. A homo.
You two are clever as a pile of sticks.
He’s as bisexual as Tim drake or Jon kent
There's a bunch of 35+ year old guys who are angry because he's on the wrong side and represents the new which isn't like what they liked as a 15 year old.
These same people will obsess over Ed Benes' garbage art as the best thing ever.
Fat people are ugly and shouldn't be superheroes unless their power is related to their fatness
It's not sacrilege but it should be. Anka is one of the worst character designers I've ever seen, he's atrocious.
It looks unfinished
Why does it look like Namor is somehow both BEHIND and IN FRONT of Iron Fist at the same time?
This art sucks.
Show some good art according to you.
clay mann draws better
traces better
Oh look he made him homosexual, color me shocked.
Pray tell, how?
His Spider-Verse designs were dogshit, all of them
Daring today, aren’t we?
