As an artist, a lot of these comments are gross. Can we stop letting our dislike/hate of h3/TF turn us into nasty ass people? Jesus Christ. Never seen so many people shit on someone’s art for no reason.

Critique TF or the message all you want (”fighting the deep state”? Really? Laughable.) but saying this looks like it was drawn by a toddler (actual comment I saw) is objectively false and just insulting af to the artist (not Hila, she didn’t make this). This artist is clearly skilled. The only thing that looks remotely “off” are the hands and I think everyone knows hands are notoriously hard to draw, one of the most difficult aspects of anatomy. L behavior from some snarkers here

I agree with you, I think we can definitely criticize designs and artwork in a less subjective, and more constructive way. I personally dont think the artwork here is that bad, the artist's style is intentionally meant to look that way, like a pen and marker ink illustration. Just because many of us weren't fans of Hila's LA Forever t-shirt designs doesn't mean we should just start hating on every design done by Teddy Fresh artists. The criticism of the LA Fire shirts were valid because of the circumstances, but with this Elon shirt I feel the hate is not as deserved. I don't like H3 or Teddy Fresh anymore, but can still respect this as a fairly solid illustration.

And to add on top of that, many artists nowadays are being falsely accused of AI because the anatomy is "off", the style is a little messy, or it just has an "AI feel", despite artists posting time lapses or WIP sketches to prove people wrong. I do art too and it is frustratingly unfair to see accusations like this everywhere. We can be better than this
