That's a shame. It's fine if he wants to draw OCs, but only them? Fuck, was one of my favourite artists.
It seems TMN is content to keep the subs he has, despite the clear drop in sub numbers since he went all in on this OC shit of his. I so miss his Warhammer stuff, it is what got me into his art in the first place. graphtreon.com_creator_TheMaestroNoob (1).png

You know what i give up…
Yes you could argue that they are all some sort of fucked up xenos filth…. Buuut nah.
I’m tired boss.
Yup, over a year now, whatever Maestro is continuing to do with his weird one eyed, ugly as fuck alien shit, is not my cup of tea and whoever is into this, more power to ya but it's not for me, time to unsub from this thread. All the best peeps.

P.S. If Maestro decides to start doing Warhammer art again, you know, the shit that brought him to the dance in the first place, someone give me a yell.

Wait! Hold the door for me. I'm right behind you.

Bye everyone! Enjoy the alien freakshow.

I think my biggest issue here is that I have no idea what the endgame is. I know all this is supposed to be Maestro creating their own races and universe...but no idea for what.

I mean, Rapscallion is doing the same thing, for third time even, but in their case, it's always been in order to make content for their games.

As if an artist can't just draw stuff they like drawing.
By all means - let him draw what he likes. Along with "normal" art, not instead of it. But stopping making all normal art and drawing weird alien shit looks like shooting yourself in leg and that's sad because he has one of the best art styles on the market.

Are you world police? If someone wants to shoot themselves in the foot - let them, it's up to them to deal with the fallout, that's called freedom. And you have the freedom to be sad or to move on to greener pastures.

Many artists out there changes their directions and references as a significant period of time passes. This is inevitable. TMN had drawn non-OCs for 7 years, which is quite long.

After nearly a decade, it's understandable for someone to no longer be interested in drawing non-OCs anymore. And even if you can somehow force him to draw these again, he would eventually suffer from burn-out and boredom because he has no freedom to do what he actually wants (draw OCs with world-building). In this case, he would likely announce a hiatus, depression, sadness, low satisfaction, etc., meaning that he won't be able to make contents for other potential fans AND make money for himself. So it's a loss for both sides.

By following his current actual passion (making OCs), he can keep making money (albeit less than before), while potential fans still get contents. This still gives more benefits than forcing himself to stick to non-OCs, which he now has ZERO interest in. TMN is past that stage. He likely won't come back to it.

A couple more examples. Dandonfuga, another prolific NSFW artist, had drawn for at least 6 years until 2022. Around 2023, she announced that she would reduce content while keeping same price, so subscribers are at a loss. Why would she do that? Burn-out, it's different from laziness. Doing the same contents with same artstyle for half a decade will eventually suck out the ambition from most people. This is inevitable. Want to avoid burn-out? She has to change her content and art direction to refresh her ambition. But people will complain so she sticks to her old path. Consequence is she takes frequent month-long breaks to avoid burnout, but fans get less content.

Meanwhile, Personalami changed artstyle after 9 years to anime style (which I don't like), and now is still making contents at a similar pace like before.

Conclusion, artists change their art directions for their own good at the cost of fan's enjoyment. An inevitable, but necessary sacrifice.

You talk about freedom, but tell people what they should and what they shouldn't do? Cute hypocrisy. Yes, he's free to do what he wants, just like people are free to criticise his decisions and find them weird.

Your freedom ends where other person's freedom begins. Don't criticize life choices of other people even if you do find them weird, it's their decision to make, not yours, their mistakes to own, not yours. But enough of that tangent.

In reality i find TMN's new thing weird too, but it is what it is.

"Your freedom ends where other people's freedom begins" is referring to irl violence and threats of violence, not mild criticism on the internet. We're absolutely free to criticize, just as he's free to make this weird shit.

Honestly, I can't really discuss it. I mean, I'm literally here. If I were paying for the guy's art and I subscribed because of his previous work, then I would understand why some people are saying those things. But since I'm not paying, I feel like I don't have the right to comment on it. But that's just my perspective; I'm not trying to impose my opinion on anyone.

TheMaestroNoob could've kept doing fan art plus his weird OC stuff and ppl would've still be upset but not as much, I mean he should've just made it as side project instead of going all in
