Rage Redd

Chickenwhite's picture
I feel really furious today. I feel like I've been ripped off in the worst way possible.
Okay, imitation is the most sincere kind of flattery, but that doesn't make me feel any less angry and... God, I'm just so... Urgh, I can't even find words for how resentful and angry I feel... The picture says more than I ever could.

I decided to give Redd an "alternate form", meaning what he looks like whenever I use him to channel my hate and spite and all those other nasty feelings that taste good as words.

When he's like this, he'll just be tearing erratically through the forest, shedding his whistle-mask to roar at the top of his lunges from as high up as he can get.
He'll even fly in this form for short distances and don't try and get close to him. He'll run away or chase you off. No matter what, he's aggression itself in this form.
But he DOES like other deer running next to him when he's like this. It helps him gather his thoughts and get back to himself.

In this form he can't feel other pain than what's on the inside and he won't speak. He'll only growl and roar. He can't control it, as it is just a reaction to me possessing his body to act out my frustration. It's still his own mind, but warped and animalistic.

He'll pick a fight if he can. But it probably won't end well for him, as he's not a very experienced fighter.

You are my vessel... whether you like it or not.

I guess I know what you

I guess I know what you mean... sounds nasty whatever it was that happened. It is a horrible feeling when you see someone just taking something personal or something you did a lot of work for.
Really liking this picture though, the black markings go so well with red and his expression feels like pure primal rage. Poor guy, especially knowing how gentle thing he usually is. Still loving the way you draw deer. <3

Thank you so much, that

Thank you so much, that really means a lot to me TwT And thank you even more for calming Redd down! TwT I was unsure whether you knew about this new "state" of his or not, so I played it safe and didn't make him as aggressive as he's actually supposed to be... XD;;
Needless to say, you really helped both of us out... Thank you so much, my friend TwT

And yeah, it really sucks... Especially when you just KNOW you're over-reacting about it...

<3 I happened to see this

<3
I happened to see this just before he ran past Spyrre and she noticed that something was wrong and followed him... so yeah I did know, sorry if you had to make him a bit toned down. ^^; Happy if he/you are feeling a bit better now.

Heh, happened to me too before... knowing that just doesn´t make you any less furious... and I guess it´s pretty understandable in that situation. Art (or other creations) for an artist is something very personal, so of course it makes you angry when someone takes it not even thinking twice. <_<

I am somehow drawn to this

I am somehow drawn to this picture. I always return to it in The Community. Don't know, why.

And it seems somehow alive. I admire this picture! <3

@Spyrre: Yeah, and it just

@Spyrre: Yeah, and it just gnaws at you, especially since you can't bust them for stealing it, since it's probably not ripped-off from you in the first place... But you still get protective if you see the same themes or other such things copied by someone else...

And it's okay, I was cooling down anyway, so he wouldn't threaten someone he knows at that moment >w< Also, I plan on down-playing him the first couple of times I'm in-forest with him, just so I can be sure that people know about his aggression before I give it all it's supposed to have.

@DEERTH: Oh, geez, thank you so much! I WAS having some pretty strong emotions when I drew it, so for it to shine through the picture isn't surprising... I'm just happy I can give something to people even when I'm feeling negative TwT
And again, thank you so much, that's such a great compliment! TwT *huggles you*

Don't I know THAT problem

And don't worry, if you work on improving your art, you'll see it get better quickly! >w< I'll be glad to give you some tips on how to quickly get better at one specific thing, if you want? >w<

Oh, sure, you're too kind! I

Oh, sure, you're too kind! I love practising art! But first, I should get my tablet at 5th November (What a looooong time. o-o ), when's my birthday. x)

Maybe, if I get my scanner working, I can post pictures made by pencil and gouaches and everything art-ish I may find at my house. xD

Awesome! >w< And I'm sure

Awesome! >w< And I'm sure it's not as bad as you think XD I'm looking forward too seeing your art! ^w^
Spyrre's picture

Awwh, that is just so

Awwh, that is just so beautiful...! Thank you so much, I adore how you draw their faces and the coloring with pencil looks wonderful! I love this so much!
<3

Yeah, I guess it´s when you get attached to a subject or a style you give it a personal meaning, so someone ripping it off feels especially bad... Hope that people doing such things on purpose would realize that. =/
Chickenwhite's picture

Yup, only I don't think this

Yup, only I don't think this person realised it :l
So I can't even ask them to apologise or anything... oh, well.

In any case, I'm just so happy to be able to give a bit of the happiness back that you gave to me and Redd TwT

Eek, I'm sorry that happened.

Eek, I'm sorry that happened. :/ I'm glad you're doing better now and your art is still fantastic. Whatever they draw, it can't be your art. You still remain the awesome Chickenwhite. Laughing out loud
