Description

Me and my pal is doing an experimental commission about Cartoonish humanized pony tickling.
We believe that after more commission, we can produce better tickling stuff!
Edit: Crap so many downvotes! What happened? Anything wrong?

@Mr.Myoozik
Fisrt, thanks for your opinion.
Second, I am shocked that style is referred to as ‘low-budget movies.’ It is supposed to resemble a WB cartoon style…according to your statement, the result does not seem to achieve that goal.

Like I said, I’m just providing a possible answer for the high amounts of downvotes since you did ask and it isn’t reflective of my own opinion on it so take what I’m about to say lightly
The art style (In my opinion at least) looks similar to one of those straight to DVD, low budget movies from the 90’s and 2000’s because of the way how the designs look, and I guess that combined with the subject matter of tickling is what’s causing people to downvote it. I myself don’t find it all too bad when I’ve seen worse in terms of art styles and subject matter, but I guess this one got to people somehow.

My guess for the downvotes (Which isn’t reflective of my own personal opinion on it) is most likely the art quality being a turn off for many, since it looks too old school VHS quality type art, probably less to do with the subject matter because I have seen a lot of tickle fetish art get very high scores. I think the art piece is fine with some issues in it, I wouldn’t go out of my way to downvote it though.

I can respond to whomever I please, regardless to how much I care about something or not, and I’m not at all hurt by what you said. Nothing about what I mentioned to that person implied I wanted nothing but praise. You made points that I disagree with, and I voiced that. The characters here are adults, and if people don’t like what they see, that’s fine. I never said you were criticizing, and I’m fine with having my name attached to this. Artists can create whatever they’d like, and this piece is fine. If you or anyone wants to add a negative connotation to this, that’s on you. Art is made all the time of characters who are aged up from their previous origins.

You realize that I didn’t say a single drop of criticism right?
But I will say that response was not only unnecessarily defensive and extremely creepy, it completely missed the entire point and reason I commented…
Because the poster asked what the problem was wanting to know why it was getting downvoted so much.
I responded using only factual pieces of information with zero hint of being rude, no insult, and no opinion. I was honestly trying to be helpful. I spent time out of my day to analyze the situation and give information and to type up a thoughtful response.
Now it looks like I need to break it down further.
Every time I said “it seems like” or related to inferences from the image, I am speaking for a majority that explains the downvoting based on past analysis. Since I have no interest or preference either way, these related comments aren’t even my own opinion; I only commented to be nice because I’m also an artist and I know what it’s like to be puzzled about why something isn’t more popular.


and people are free to like what they want to like.
Of course they are, which is why I didn’t say anything to criticize what anyone did or didn’t like. Instead, I responded as to why this was not garnering popularity.


and I can tell you, there are some very small, youthful looking adults out there
Which Cozy Glow is not. Making her into a small, youthful-looking adult in an oddly, possibly questionable situation [seems like] an excuse to get away with something, even if that’s not the intention.


These characters presented here are from the mlp franchise, and are humanized, mimicking the equestria girls style,
That’s exactly part of the issue I mentioned; a youthful-looking character known to be an underaged minor is present in a situation that is, very rarely, anything outside of a fetish. I proved this notion with the images under the “foot tickling” tag, of which almost no harmlessly clean images exist (past my filters anyway), and the ones that do exist are at least suggestive by nature.
As such, even if the image drawn is intended to be clean and safe (which is dubious since theres no reasonably clean or safe context for this image, with socks and shoes removed making it even weirder… it’s a logical assumption, see the Celestia and Luna example), the image will be offputting to the broad audience already.
Ponies are more acceptable. The image mightve been more popular if the characters were ponies, and maybe different circumstances.


This isn’t hurting anyone.
It seems to be hurting you because you’ve seen a comment that didn’t flood the image with praise and you have been acting unnecessarily defensive. So I’m commenting to be helpful. Even if what I said was criticism, it would be constructive criticism, well-thought, deep, and thoroughly explained, meaning as an artist it should be grateful to receive.
If this is your first image as your artist tag, you are not off to a good start, and if you want to improve, this unfortunate attitude is not the way to do it.
If you really don’t care, then there is no reason to respond or comment.
The art in of itself is fairly lovely and has lots of potential… the topic chosen is where most of the issues probably lie.

Well, I’m the artist that did this, and I can tell you, there are some very small, youthful looking adults out there, if that’s the issue, and people are free to like what they want to like.
Plus, Twilight’s face is drawn in the style of the show, and this is safe, as in safe for work, which is within the tag
These characters presented here are from the mlp franchise, and are humanized, mimicking the equestria girls style, so the original uploader was fine with what he called them. If you don’t like this, leave it be and look at something else. This isn’t hurting anyone.

Purely for research purposes, I followed the image to maybe see the comments. (Yus, reely)
Tickling is considered a pretty weird, not very popular, and possibly immature fetish (up there with balloons), if not sub-variant of the foot fetish, which I theorize requires detail for desirability… and even if the image is clean, adding Cozy Glow, especially human Cozy, makes it a bit off putting, especially with socks and shoes removed. (Yes it’s Safe, but you’re not fooling anyone.)
Notice, there’s only 81 pics tagged “foot tickling” for example, and only 12 get past my filters, and most the ones I can see, not Safe or vaguely Sage rating.
So you probably hit all the wrong aspects:
  • It’s not pony enough to be considered more widely accepted
  • Made worse, since, it’s human
  • Cozy Glow is probably intended to be older, but not clear enough, so it seems obvious to viewers your blatantly trying to “get away with it”
  • It’s not a Safe image with enough sensible context (like Celestia’s sibling rivalry with Luna, holding her down and tickling her), so it’s not enjoyable for the broader audience
  • Even those who might ve interested don’t have enough detail to satisfy the desired interest
Also, Twilight’s face is a little weird because the angle isn’t exactly right with the face and mouth.
