With @EctoSludge and @OviManic starting new threads about these topics, I figured it was time for the challenge to return again:
Yeah, you can rant about that style or design, but will you draw it?

In this thread, you must make an attempt to replicate a style, aesthetic, or design trope that you at least get a little bit irrationally angry over. Explain why you don’t like it, sure, but the drawing is more important! Bonus points if you draw your own character in the style, for extra PAAAAAAAIN!

I’ll start: Those anime dress-up games from the 2000s. While I appreciate that people are bringing them back and absolutely think they should be preserved, I just notice a general trend of everything in them being so damn saturated and all the clothing being in horribly clashing colors that don’t go together. And so it looks like something like this:

Argh! My eyes!

Now it’s your turn. Do you have what it takes to channel your hate into greater artist power? (Jesus, I kinda sound like Emperor Palpatine in this thread.)

Bonus: Here’s a drawing I did of @GGishere based on that infamously horrible “how to draw manga” book for her birthday last summer, because I thought it’d be funny.

I have yet to find one that actually irritates me on a personal level.

Oh, the others are being ingenuine for not drawing in their old artstyle?
Alright go ahead, draw in your old artstyle then if you are so genuine.

You can’t just say something disparaging as hell and leave! I know that’s what you like to do in every thread, but THAT’S NOT HOW THIS WORKS!

PLAY. THE. GAME.
