Lo; also known as Mechanista. Likes fish, robots, necromancy, and long walks on the beach. An ardent and angry feminist, masculist, and humanist, and a self-identified progressive liberal pinko. Reblogs feminist and political things half the time, neat pictures, fanart, and science stuff half the time, and posts her own art, thoughts on art theory, mysticism, and feminism the other half the time.
Doer of Aquapunk.

As a feminist-minded woman comic artist, I have come across a lot of complex and deeply-discussed reasons as to why women in comics look the way they do. One of the biggest excuses I get given is that it is an art style, that it makes the art dynamic, full of movement, full of tension and flow.
Thanks so much for bringing this to my attention! Reblogged for truth!
Read somewhere these last couple of days that said pin-up culture has killed real action sequences that take actual skill and planning to draw. Man, I couldn’t agree more.
