ITT: Artists that have fallen from grace

Webcomic artists that turn "They" usually end up screwing the projects that gave them fame.
Schmorky, Paranatural, Goblins, Poppy Oppossum, etc.
James Davis
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Hunter Moore
Who?
Owen Robinson
Morbi.
I will give you the cliff notes.
Morbi gained a lot of popularity with his furry comic "Poppy Opposum" because the tone was good.
Morbi became bored of it even when it was really popular and decided he would continue it only as a written story with a few illustrations.
He did a couple of updates like that and just stopped.
Nowadays spends his time drawing art to satisfy his fetish for fat goblin things.
Chase Gutierrez
What's the ghost webcomic again?
Leo Robinson
That doesn't really narrow it down.
Brody Brooks
dave simpson turn out really well though
Jaxson Russell
Unfortunately.
Brandon Ross
The fuck did Morbi do now.
Daniel Kelly
He hates Lolicons even though he draws shota and denies its shota
Jackson Carter
you mean what Morbi DIDN'T DO
which is nothing, because he can't commit to anything besides being horny
Liam Allen
Paranatural could have worked if Zack was a better writer. He got too excited about his comic tried to flesh out every little random character all in one grueling game of Namekball. I didn't need a subplot for every member of Max's class + all the psychics when the main plot was going so slowly.
Jacob Hughes
at least he hates trannies
Dylan Jenkins
I mean, I generally ignore Morbi's tirades so... huh.
Grayson Young
Does he? I stopped reading back when he went full feminazi. Don't recall any trans stuff in the comics before that point.
Sebastian Davis
His forum is literally "TERF".
He also draws a bunch of comics about how pills can't really change being a man or a woman.
It is all secondary to his general focus on prostitution.
Dude cares more about whores than Frank Miller does.
Adam Jenkins
Brad and Leslie
They gave Blaster Nation a shitty ending to move onto their shittier Rock Cocks
Jackson Wood
and purplekecleon
Leo Stewart
I dropped them when I noticed they've been "moving house" for like two years now but still collect on the same schedule for their patreon. Shitty part is Leslie can do good work on her own doing the writing and the art, it seems to be brad who usually shits it up with the lazy writing.
Semi-related but why the fuck does anyone still read BCB? The pace is glacial and the writing is barely above Jack-tier melodrama.
Kayden Sanchez
>Semi-related but why the fuck does anyone still read BCB? The pace is glacial and the writing is barely above Jack-tier melodrama.
When some webcomics get really popular they gain enough odd fans that will continue reading it no matter what. So even if the quality drops there will still be supporters.
Joseph Edwards
Are we talking about that one guy who drew that one comic where its super minimal and colorless just showing the un-life of a ghost that just shits around being an asshole? Fuck I frogot the guys name but last I remember about the artist was just spiraling down into some crazy self hate trip due to actual mental illness shit. dont remember if hes getting help or not or even if hes still alive.
Caleb Perez
Man I liked Blaster Nation. I even threw a few bucks their way when they did a kickstarter. I liked how it was character based about different kinds of geeks and weirdos instead of just "lol videogames." Then Brad and Leslie jumped on the lesbian bandwagon and made theirs the sole focus of the comic. They also found they make more money doing NSFW comics and just dropped BN with some halfed assed feel good ending.
I'm still a little salty.
Last I checked RC's plot isn't going anywhere fast and the smut is pretty meh.
Cooper Taylor
Pictures for sad children?
Michael Ross
>Morbi the gay ass cloud.
>Creates a nice comic.
>Yas Forums actually likes it and wants more of it.
>Morbi the gay ass cloud gets bored with comic and just drops it whole sale.
Morbi that gay ass cloud really had something and just threw it all away like yesterday's trash.
Adam Miller
oh so it went to shit? i enjoyed a lot of the beginning, i'm sad to find this out
zack (and any artist interested in making any sort of story driven media) should learn from the coen brothers where they flesh out a character in seconds
Jacob Anderson
Seriously, what the fuck does he do for a living? Dude does nothing but retweet his Twitter posts and draw the occasional sketch nowadays. I still like his shit but I really wish he did something other than his incredibly insular brand of shitposts.
Caleb Rodriguez
He hasn’t updated his patreon for over a year
Says he’s cancelled Poppy
Now he just draws his shota OC and his bestiality Fursona and is a hypocrite on twitter
Carter Brown
How is he a hypocrite? There's a difference between shortstacks/chibi and lolis.
youtube.com
James Foster
I’m not talking about shortstacks
This OC here has the proportions of an infant but Morbi draws porn of him and says it’s okay because he’s 28
Joseph Russell
wait why did he cancel it?
Jason Rivera
He got bored of having to draw the comic each week
Jackson Wood
He found out he hated making longform comics and preferred writing/world-building/concept-arting and I guess he lost enthusiasm after transitioning to some pseudo-VN format? I don't know that much about why he ended it honestly, I dropped it like a rock as soon as he went more heavily on the written word because I only got into the thing in the first place cuz of the art.
Jaxson Martin
Brun that and no shota it's a fucking goat moogle
Ayden Parker
It's a non-human goblin thing, I think there's a pretty big difference between wanting to fuck things like Midna and mascot looking things and wanting to fuck pic related.
Luis Martinez
Dana Simpson done more than just webcomics, borderline example.
Carter Wright
cRiPPLinG dEpREsSIoN
(but can draw porn for friends and patrons no problem)
Chase Ramirez
They both have child proportions is my point
Nathaniel Nelson
I'm still fucking mad.
I knew the moment he stopped coming to the Yas Forums threads and went to solely tumblr/twitter he'd turn fucking weird. But I didn't expect him to just become a lazy fat fuck.
Charles Torres
Nonhuman cartoon thing with short limbs /= child proportions.
Noah Powell
The worst part is his world-building was boring fucking dogshit.
I'm tired of every wannabe writer thinking having an encyclopedia to go with their setting equates to decent writing or that you NEED pages of fucking bullshit lore to write a fantasy story.
Easton Hill
Okay Morbi
Asher Taylor
>thread immediately derailed by salty pedophiles justifying jerking their shortsticks to midgets
Alexander Morales
Maybe now with the Big 2 shutting these webcomic artists will step up.
Or they'll just stab themselves or set something on fire.
Jaxson Scott
Fuck that piece of shit
>Old_man_yells_at_cloud
Andrew Brooks
A fitting end.
Jaxson Myers
josh lesnick
went from having a very successful webcomic and being the creator and runner of slipshine to working at walmart (or subway or something, don't remember) and trying to kill himself
he goes by jackie now and apparently is undergoing hrt soon, dude's in his 40s so that should be fun to watch
Juan Ward
Well I dunno fellas, I think Morbi's pretty good!
Anthony Martin
lest we forget...
youtube.com
Kevin Myers
Honestly, I can't fault him for your last point, especially if he's successfully monetized it. More pertinent to this thread, Morbi has always had a terrible work ethic and compounded it by basically winging it when it came to plotting Poppy.
Jaxson Harris
They think it makes it seem deeper and more complex than the story actually is. Most of it won't been seen or you'll get a page (maybe an entire chapter) wasted on exposition. The lore trap is a real danger to alot of creators.
Easton Bell
The author of pic related. Went from drawing a beloved Yas Forums comic and being a professional storyboarder to being blacklisted from industry and whining about children cartoons on Twitter all day.
Jacob Lewis
bitter details added on, Morbi is an SJW type and wanted to move to somewhere they would be "accepted." They brought up Seattle and their fans told them that was a HORRIBLE IDEA, and it was because they ignored this, and started having trouble managing time.
The written format was meant to "speed up the storytelling" process over drawing strips but now its been on a 2 year """hiatus"""
Caleb Thompson
This is the biggest example desu
It's such a shame he's a shithead because the pilot he put out was pretty charming (if not a bit generic)
Mason Stewart
Honestly, I really wish someone would just buy the rights off of him. Between the cliff notes he's dropped over Twitter about plot and character details it really wouldn't be hard for someone else to finish it.
Cameron Hall
what did he do
Ryan Cox
>Morbi became bored of it even when it was really popular and decided he would continue it only as a written story with a few illustrations.
I keep seeing webcomics try this and it invariably comes out that the problem wasn't the art but the scripting process.
Erfworld in particular was subject to that since the problems after Book 2 were pretty clearly on Rob's end and not Xin Ye.
Hudson Edwards
Jeremiah Johnson
just being all-around creepy and unpleasant to work with apparently
there are also rumors that he threatened someone with a box cutter, i never really believed them though
Adrian Young
>Not continuing to draw porn of this.
Real let down.
Tyler Brown
Man, I remember watching the Flash Tub at SA and following his other animated projects. What the fuck went wrong?
Christian Bell
Which is so bizarre, considering someone with NO work ethic wouldn't get good at drawing (or hold a nursing job) in the first place.
They have some sort of disastrous 75% work ethic where they grasp defeat from the jaws of victory.
Kevin Brown
>SJW type
you say that but i've heard them's a creeper weirdo
Bentley Turner
Among a multitude of other things, he draw really creepy art of himself and Pearl in a relationship and apparently showed it to his boss (at the time) Rebecca Sugar. The guy basically has no idea of how to act around people.
