Inactive Andrew Dobson / Tom Preston / CattyN - STOP DOING SEXIST CRAP

[Alabaster Disaster]

troll or not he got typical NB behavior down

Because it was a typical NB (someone lying for attention)

 

[Crabpuncher]

Either bored troll, or somebody trying really hard to bait their old favorite cow out of retirement. It would be really funny if he deleted everything because he got a Cease & Desist from the real Dobson after posting that comic.

A troll that went throught THAT much effort would definately post that C&D. I agree with the definate bait out though.

 

[Belvedere]

This is the most fake and gay shit I've ever seen. My expectations for this troll were low, but holy shit! One half-assed AI strip, gets called out, quits.

Dobson is not coming back and that's the best outcome Dobson could hope for to live a peaceful life.

At least he got this part down before he deleted.

Instead of spending 5 years in therapy, he should have spent those 5 years practicing drawing instead.

Well, at the very least, it was nice seeing this thread as active as it was while Dobson was around, even for a little while.

It's nice to gather 'round the campfire every once in a while.

If you actually fall for this you're retarded. This doesn't look like how Dobson draws at all. Now it's possible he's degraded in his absence but there's things just fundamentally off.

Take this random blue bear era comic for example. Notice how in each one Dobbear isn't drawn in a totally stiff straight pose and there's always a bit of intentional asymmetry to the drawing? Dobson might be a bad artist but he's classically trained and those are Preston Blair fundamentals he would've no doubt studied in his college years.

I was going to post this same exact comic to make my own case, nice ninja. The hands are a tip-off too.

... The bear having eyelashes for the Dobson gendersona is kinda funny.

It really was a fun week on here reminiscent of a time where the worst people online were just butthurt artists.

He threw in the towel as soon as he joined back. What is his endgoal?

 

[Done Goofed]

I'm going to say that a big part of the reason why there aren't lolcows 'like in the good ole days' is because the Internet and lolcow culture have grown so much. Most people with threads here have acknowledged the concept in some capacity so they self police. Only bonafide degenerates produce enough to be considered true lolcows. The self-righteous/sociopath a-log question. All these boxes are open and consequences will never be the same.

My own passion project lolcow is like a mini-Dobson. Fat, balding neckbeard with the right side of history politics. Terminally online, so sexually repressed you can notice by just looking at him. Pick-me behaviour. Wants to be seen as a true artist but spends too much time seething about what others say of him. Nostalgia driven consoomer with unpopular takes on media he has gotten bodied for. Worships McDonald's and has a specific day of the week to eat fast food. Largely known as a punchline on his own corner of the Internet.
Unlike the Son of Dob really bitchmade for confrontation outside of his own fans and so self-aware his work is a metaphorical groundhog that could serve to cure insommia.

Dobson and MovieBob are of a rare breed and the fact they exist serves to keep the next generation from acting out.

This sounds like investigative journalist Jake Alley Violet Cassandra Ocean if you can deal with how borderline incomprehensible the gnomes delusions and rehashing of 2014 nothing dramas are.

Patrick S. Tomlinson embodies a lot of these attributes, only he's a writer instead of an artist.

Shame it wasa troll, I kinda hopped Dobbo was back. Though, I can kinda see the guy using AI to make stuff, god knows he wasnt above using cheap tactics before to make his art quicker.

It’s was likely some weenor who duped the internet into thinking Dobbo Slobbo is back. Endgoal probably was be some sort of Liquid Dobson. Looks like it never panned out.

The chest/stomach in the new art is drawn too small, Arm proportions are wonky, and finger positioning. As much as Dobson cant draw fingers, I recall he was able to draw characters holding a cup decently. Also I dont recall Blue Bear’s eyes being drawn like that.

 

[Arthur Morgan]

Real Dobson would never use AI. He's lazy but not in that way.

I disagree. Consider that he wanted to get into Hollywood not as a creator, but as an 'ideas guy' who got other people to do the work for him. Basically a producer, but without even having to do the work of a producer. This is a man who 3D printed other people's models and wanted to sell them without giving credit or filing down the edges to make them look better.

If he could, he absolutely would use AI to generate his artwork for him. And then complain that people were being mean because it would be so obvious it was AI.

 

[twodogsinacoat]

One could say the real Dobson is the friends we inflate along the way.

 

[Raiken]

if it is him(and it's not) the only thing that is a tell is that they had a meldown over the smallest shit. ofcourse people where going to be sceptical.
also not buying that his first comic was going to be the old "teh trollz are there again" in the most low efford way possible. it's just a desk and computer with a single extra image of his fursona holding coffee.

I'm not sure about that. Using AI would have made him a pariah in many circles. I know he was tactless, but I'm not sure if it would go that far. He definitely would have used AI art at the beginning of the fad, but definitely not now that it's so controversial.

So there is still hope Dobson actually got a life now? I will take everything bad I said about him if he makes a KF account and tells us what really happened to him and is able to prove he is doing better in life and not stagnating like has been in the past.

I honest-to-God would not be surprised if Andrew bailed on the Internet at the behest of his family or therapist, did the social media detox to prove he could do it, and then stayed away from the Internet when he realized how much happier he was for it. It's also possible that his therapist convinced him that his art ambitions were going nowhere, he wasn't enjoying it, it was making him miserable, and that he became a different person with different needs.

The dude's been off the Internet for so goddamn long with no credible sign of returning. You don't do that unless you've had some serious change in habits and outlook in life. Maybe his brother sneaked him some magic mushrooms and he had an ego death, I don't know. There are certainly enough of them out in his neck of the woods. Either way, I think it's safe to say that he did make a positive change in his life by getting off social media and has no reason to return.
