Just got my first manga troll. I found it hilarious. Apparently my artwork is that of marvel comics style and not manga. And its chicken scratch child level. I replied with a Facebook laughing emoji.
Note: I never once claimed to be a professional manga artist. I’m an amateur compared to the modern 2010s and up style. As for chicken scratch, I’ve had Anime shops message me to sell my prints in the past. And lots of subs and over 2000 views so far for my manga.
As for other digital illustrations, yes I am a professional I have a wide spectrum client list since 2002. And as for social media, as artists improve they become prey to many trolls and art theft online. Just the way the world is.
