Artcow Shaddai Prejean / Shädman / Shadman / Shädbase / Shad / TheShadling - Pedophile Web Artist. Edgelord. Alleged Heroin Addict. Drew Porn of His Mother. Charged with Assault with a Deadly Weapon. Legally a "Menace to Society" in Switzerland. TAKE IT EZ BABE!!!

I don't even know why people keep saying Shad used to be a good artist. Even at his "best", he was a second-rate pin-up artist that could only draw bimbos with beady eyes and pig noses. The edgelord reputation always served as a shortcut to fame without putting in additional effort. He just failed to anticipate that his image would eventually wear out and leave him as a washed-up hack fraud and pedophile.

He is a good artist, but only when he tries to be and he isn't trying right now. There's plenty of art he's done that's at the very least "good", when he puts effort in he can do great stuff - the problem is he's lazy.
 
You know, at this point given the fanbase Shad has collected, and the reputation his name holds... really, the only thing he could do at this point to become a respectable artist is to "kill himself" as it were. Take down his site, delete every profile he has, and even try DMCAing all his current work from the internet.
Then he'd have to reinvent himself completely. Practice a new style, find a new subject, the whole shibang.

But I don't think he ever will. He'd be a nobody again, he'd have to start all over and apply actual EFFORT to his art. And somehow, I just don't think he has the ability or desire to do that. He's already found a devoted audience of mouthbreathing knuckledraggers that polish his ego over his most banal, talentless shit and give him loads of money for low effort shitposty comics.

I honestly don't think he's good enough to rise above the trash anymore. Not even if he wanted to.


Well you didn't fail to live up to your name I will give you that

But if shadman wanted to start over he could by just starting another account and start a new like anyone else online.

He also never assoicated his real name or face heavily so he could easily do it and get away with it sense his style has become very generic it would be much harder to tell it was him.

I doubt it. He'd have to shift his style quite a bit, because a LOT of his art techniques are incredibly recognizable to anyone who knows what they're looking for. He'd be outed incredibly fast.
Hell, even I can recognize Shad's art when I see it. And as you pointed out, I'm exceptional as fuck. You don't think someone a tad less exceptional would be able to spot that shit too?

No, he'd have to retrain himself to do a less distinct art style. Something that generally takes awhile to get used to, though a decent artist can master a new style in a few months.

New comic. This feels more like a parody of modern Shad.

I can’t be the only one who thinks Shad is kinda bad at making comics, right? Those arrows indicating the flow of the comic is really lazy. That’s “<-(insert explanation of emotion or an item here)” found in manga and weeb comics level of bad.

And the thin black lines separating the panels has always kinda bugged me.
Shad probably skipped the class in art school about how comic panels are supposed to have negative space between them, and should never be separated by solid black lines.
