Anonymous sent: As a amateur comic book artist photo reference is a very important tool when it comes to the making of comics. But the kind that Greg Land does is down right disrespectful to the characters, creators, and fans. Referencing photos should be used as a guide, not a straight up copy. And saying that Land needs to use “more interesting porn” is well beyond missing the point. That guy who said that should know better. I mean, look at Alex Ross, an artist that DOES take photographs for his work. |
whispers ‘amen’ into the night

therobotmonster sent: In response to the fellow who pulled you from your haitus, Land's use of photography, hell, even his use of porn isn't the problem (well, to a degree). It's how he uses it. Were he to photograph people he knew for reference, he wouldn't get insane, stupid poses and people would get more facial expressions. If he used more interesting porn, at least it might not all be a parade of the same girl, over and over again. |
‘if he used more interesting porn’ has to be the driest most sardonic thing anyone has ever wearily stated about his ridiculous artwork

Anonymous sent: So you guys must really hate Deodato right? He takes a photo reference for just about every panel. Is the issue the photos Land uses not royalty free? I enjoy both artists. The ends are a great looking book and the means are pretty harmless. How many of you download music, movies etc.? I am hoping this odd bandwagon is a joke. What makes it sexist exactly? Scantly clad women? The nut hugging tights on men is really empowering. |
honey i’m going to kick you in the nuts, whether you have a pair or not
a) this is false equivalence, one of the things that makes land’s artwork sexist is the fact that the idea of a burly beefcake man is a power fantasy
and yet all his women are massively busty, in possession of roughly the exact same face, and often look nowhere near their canon ages
b) oh i’m sorry were you not using eyes when you scanned this blog
did you not see the poses the women are in
because i can sure look at, say
(of course consistently spread legs, arched backs, and pleasure/pained faces aren’t objectification at all)
and
(because who needs to see betsy’s face when she’s talking? her breast and nipple will do just fine).
there’s also the fact that he steals from other artists:
oh, and let’s not forget, aside from the collarboobs:
merely looking at betsy here, would you be able to tell she’s in a japanese woman’s body?
no.
because she looks like a white woman.
because all land’s women look like white women.
if you bothered to read my answer, you can also read this very good article on the ethics (or lack of) behind land’s work
congratulations, your idiocy pulled me out of hiatus, that’s quite a feat

Anonymous sent: You've done it. The first search result on google of Greg Land is this blog. It beats his Wiki page, how do you feel? |
Astounded.
