I feel sorry for some of these artists. They get so excited over the opportunity to do a PJ poster, only to have the fans shit all over their work, and then not even be able to make a decent paycheck.
Nobody is shitting on his work. Some people just don’t like it. Not everyone likes the same things. Some of this fanbase is so soft.
Guy who was admittedly blocked by TSURT is definitely not my barometer for respectful dialogue on....merch designs.
Some might say lobbing overly critical messages about someone else's hard work on a discussion forum is soft. To each their own.
Nope. Soft is a fanbase that can’t take any kind of opinion. Just bcuz someone says they don’t care for the guy’s style isn’t shitting on it. I can appreciate his vision and effort. Just not my thing or some other people’s. It’s become a soft generation.
I died. I died and you just stood there. I died and you watched. I died and you walked by and said no. I'm dead.

Oh, you’re so witty. You know nothing about me, keyboard warrior. Another soft fan.

I no you can't spell
Seriously, just drop it. Poster artist must be your husband or something to get so triggered to start attacking someone on their personal opinion of art. Get help.

I mean, someone called the Sacramento artist a jagoff and that TSURT should be ashamed for even hiring him. I think that qualifies as shitting on somebody (and their work). Now call me a snowflake and move on
Lol. These artists work so hard. Even you don't like it, show some respect. That's not a soft view. It's a mature one
This is a message board and people can give their opinions on the art, whether anyone likes it or not. Just bcuz I don’t like this piece doesn’t mean I won’t like something else by him in the future. I didn’t call it a piece of crap, and even if I did it’s only my personal opinion. Show respect. Ok, I take back everything I said about it. 🙄

What kind of dice is that???……is it God’s Dice on the anniversary of Binaural?
In my defence for the terrible joke am sitting by the pool at South Point enjoying a few.

preach
the struggle is real
being a poster artists is a weird gig... you pour all this time and energy into a piece for weeks if not a month or more and cross your fingers it will sell and you can get paid for your time
I've been making posters now for two decades... and you'd think that'd make me an expert on what fans will like and what they will want to buy or frame on their wall.... and the longer I do this, the less and less I understand about what art will resonate and what art will flop
you can be working on your poster for weeks, all stoked and proud and can't wait for fans to see it...... and then they don't like it... just takes all the wind out of your sails/sales... hero or zero... maybe a meh in between
I think the problem is the artist needs to take account of the fanbase. This LV poster would be super cool in a dorm room, but the fanbase is 40-60 year olds. Sometimes simple is best. Take the Moline poster one of the most sought after prints. It's just an ad for John Deere. But it's clean. One of my favorite posters is the 2003 St. Paul poster. Again clean and simple but represents the area even if it's a dig. I think that's why the catch from Fenway is such a hit. It's just clean.(his MN State Fair print is way better then the catch). It's why the Faile Wrigley is off, It's a great print but why is Ferris a wolf, throws the whole thing imo.
I really like the Vancouver wolf print, almost bought the ap but funds didn't make sense.
I do love seeing all the unique artwork and wish nothing but success for the artists. Just giving my 2 cents.
Last random though I love Shag and would love to see hime do a show print

Consider if the anonymity provided by the internet is altering how you might say something when giving an opinion.

That line was one of the shortest I've seen and took the longest. But got every single thing I wanted, all shirts in all sizes, the bag, amazingly, and the poster looks great in person.
