Just saying it is most likely that Dillin is bi and like most bi girls (maybe guys?) they tend to see their own sex as more of a fetish than a candidate for a life partner. He might be bisexual but not biromantic. Grindr is a hookup app more than anything and he most likely got a thrill out of it whilst dating Taylor.
seems like he's having problems streaming, nothing too interesting, other then who he's streaming with View attachment 2978936
Seems like the Dillin Cycle will in fact continue, as Lord Danny is a female sonictuber and Doctor Dolly is the blond hair chick he was simping for
My interest in Dillin waned after Jesse/Rogue because I frankly don't care about Cucklone or his DC comics review shit, but I am interested in Dillin cycling the love quest or next sonictuber/friend collab partner. I want to see if he will either end up with Lord Danny or Jesse(female). Even if it's not either of them, I'd put money on his next gf being someone from his audience that started as a fan.

If that's the case, I am probably putting my money on Lord Danny since she has been a super fan of Dillin "Jew" Thomas for a while and they regularly chat each other. Looks wise, since Dillin is a faggot, Danny is the perfect "women" for him, since she kinda of looks like a tranny. Also because of the whole drama with Jesse Pedo, Dillin might have gotten trauma from that name. Tho if things don't work out Jesse could always be the side gf.
Dillin's got a few problems:
1: Comic looks like shit. It's got that "I want to be anime" look to it, but the problem with novice anime artists is they have zero clue of what gesture is. Anime art is expressive because the Japanese artists know what that is. All anime fans seem to notice, however is the hyper-detailed and stylized art. When they try to copy the style they only grab the superficial elements. Heavy hatching, a ton of black "Shading" (that doesn't follow any lighting in an environment). So you get floppy shapeoids that look barely human, and curves in the wrong direction. I'm not interested in reading that shit, but I know a thing or two about the industry and fan expectations. You can make a giant incomprehensible piece of shit, but with good art, fans can ignore it and just enjoy the pretty pictures. If you have bad art, your story better be I M M A C U L A T E.
2: Dillin has the Linkara problem with a worse work ethic. So he's the unholy lovechild of Linkara and Wings of Redemption. Say what you want about Linkara, I've always respected his dedication to his comic reviews. Scripting and editing is capital 'T' Tedious and I do this shit for a living. EVS, and Diversity and Comics are artists. Yellow Flash just joined the niche early, his stuff is pretty bland. Just Some Guy is a good word smith, Clownfish TV is the anti-woke version of Buzzfeed (Every genre needs a buzzfeed) and Razorfist has a great sense of timing and wit. What does Dillin bring to the table? he reads an article nearly verbatim, adds some mediocre commentary, rambles, barely edits and his voice is annoying (rather he has a whiny tone when he speaks).
I'll levy this advice directly at him since I know he reads this thread: Less is more. Stop pumping out a bunch of uninteresting videos and actually try to add some production value to your shit. You rebranded your channel right? Make your new content worth watching. If that's too much work then I'm sorry but you need to do something else.
Since you like lolcows and niche webcomics, why not just do edited read throughs of obscure webcomics you find awful and ones worth merit? Start with Lightbringer and Sonichu since those are the more notorious ones and branch out to others so people get the theming.

Yeh it's a shot in the dark, but even Chris chan with a little prodding from Null started to get his act together with his business - abusing barb notwithstanding. Dillin, you're not less motivated and lazier than Chris Chan are you?

Honestly? I think he's less motivted than Chris, and maybe even less ambitious. Chris seemed like he really wanted to make Sonichu a thing back in the day, but Dillin seems like he's just taking the quickest route to possible success. With minimal results I may add.
Well he already did both. At least he did Sonichu several years back with Jesse, True and Jill. That was only really entertaining to see Jesse's reaction to it all as a new time viewer as Dillin explained the comic using Jesse as an audience surrogate. It eventually got boring though mostly due to the comic itself getting old after a few issues so it's not really Dillins fault that the readings suffered. On the other hand, Lightbringer isn't really that funny so he has nothing really to bring to it. Metokur already did it better years ago.
Ironic. Watched it. One, Dillin's voice acting is kinda cringe. It's just.. his own voice, but worse. Second, he comments on the character ironically pointing out a typo, saying "I guess they're a grammar Nazi".. what is one of the things Dillin harps on the most when he trsfs a fanfic/comic? Huh. Seriously, the brazen double standards he has when it comes to himself and literally anyone else is absurd.
So Dillin's server is back open to the public, though its pretty much dead at this point as Dillin isn't even a part of it anymore. That being said, here's all his public interactions in it in chronological order
Channel: Art (9/21/2021) No Idea what the context behind this is as this is literally the beginning of the channel, likely something was nuked before.
(11/18/2021) Dillin being a art teacher/critic
(11/23/2021) Dillin Draws something
Server: Sonic Movie (Images) (12/7/2021-12/8/2021) Dillin (hopefully jokingly) Sperging Out over people talking in a shitposting image only channel related to the sonic movie

Oh man, I see sooooo many things I want to comment on here.
It's like he's low-key trying to take credit for Taylor's art now? What do you guys want to bet, he's just testing the waters to find someone to do art of characters for him to replace her?
"I have obsessed with sonic and anatomy my whole life" No shit? So has Chris Chan. Huh.
"Always glad to help people with their set" immediately followed by "guys stop asking for advice I helped one person stop asking"
Then posts his own art, and it's.. shit? Like, I don't draw well, but I draw better than that. Again, this wouldn't be so bad if he didn't go so hard "critiquing" other people's ocs/art, and act like he can help people become "as good as official artists".
Sperging out over people posting something in the wrong channel? Ironic, because the thing that started the whole Dillin/Legacy drama was.. him shilling his stuff in the wrong channel, and me sending him an extremely polite DM about which channel to post it in. HUH.
I would LIKE to believe he's actually going to change, but.. I just don't. I still think this is just fallout from him getting ass wrecked by Rogue and Jessie stealing his girl, and at some point he'll go back to being the same ol' same ol'.

It's probably for the best. Rouge gave him a final fuck you by having his avatar in the same style and with the fall out with Taylor. People might give him crap for using her art.

Was going to post a little review on a panel for his comic "The Cyclone" but didn't know if it'd be appropriate here. That being said it is annoying how he critiques so heavily of others, but when it comes to his own works it's not so bad.

Since we are on the topic of art. Here's a little critique on one panel I've seen. I am not saying I am a good artist or that I can do better.
I've only seen snippets but this is one of the pull pages that's available. The first thing I noticed is that the knockoff screen slaver outline is primarily done with the symmetry tool. It's not a bad thing, but it's blatantly obvious. The scene itself is really simple in of itself. To me it's lazy and seems low effort.
The villain itself seems really simple and the design is uninspiring.
The chest for quite awhile bothered me since it looked like he had a thin waist. Then I thought his chest is puffed out, possibly overexaggerated chest armor. In the end after thinking for a moment it's most likely the coat fold. It didn't click for me since the lighting is kind of odd. It's possibly there to fill in the blank space.
With that in mind I don't think the use of negatives is being used to it's full potential. It could be done much better with more detail. Maybe give the Screen slaver some perspective with fish eye lens to make the scene more dynamic and impactful. Maybe instead of having the fold outline for the chest you could've used the light from the screen shining down to contrast the background to fill in the empty space. Or that you could have used the light and drawn more with the ambience and scatter off of the chest.
With the odd choice of light. I could see that more could be done with the boy (?) if more effort was put into it. To me at first glance it looks like he's on a podium. Maybe he is? Can't tell. With ambient and scattering of light it might've been possible to at least put a faint outline of legs.
I can't knock too much on the character might be an artistic choice.
It's a really simple page in the end. Nothing crazy going on. I'm curious if the artist is getting paid seeing how Dillin isn't in the best financial state. Could explain the low effort. I would look more into it, but I really don't want to give money to Dillin. By the looks of it. Doesn't seem that great. Doesn't mean all comics need great art to sell (ex: One Punch Man) but if you don't have decent art. Your writing must be top tier or else it'll get drowned out by the sea of indie comics.
edit: I found some free chapters so might look into it.
Did anyone ever save any of his sonic fag videos? Cause it would be nice to see if some of your homies manage to save them all in an archive or not? No one has seemed to reupload them so unless they are lost forever? This sucks balls!

There are a few still on his main channel, and a few that he's uploaded to his archive channel, but most of his stuff has been lost due to him deleting everything regularly
