Love your art. This one though, not so much.

Wait why the hate? I don't understand. . .

Nicely done!

Takonata

Don't listen to any hater here, just have fun making art that you love!

Heck, yes! 🥰

It's entirely about the author, JK Rowling.

Veemo, i've been a patron for some years now. I'm trans, and I don't feel comfortable with supporting anything attached to JKR. I'm sorry, but if this continues I have to give up on you.

I initially thought this might be about sexualizing a bully character, but now I understand the context. To be clear, I drew this character simply because I saw everyone was drawing her on Twitter and Pixiv, so I assumed someone here would want this too. It was never meant to show support for the author's views in any way. Most of what I look up online is artworks, gaming news, and pet bird videos. The Harry Potter series fell outside my interests more than 15 years ago, so I'm sorry to say that I wasn't aware of the author's activities since then. I'm sorry that this have hurt you in any way, that was never my intention.😔

Thank you for explaining. I was quite confused until I understood the reason

Unfortunately it's not just plain hate for Veemo or the HP series. It's in relation to the author who activey uses the profits she receives from the Harry Potter IP to fund anti Trans movements. She's genuinely a truly terrible person. And many individuals will retaliate if they witness any creator supporting her work in any way.

It's my fault for not doing enough research, and I apologize if this offended you. I have no reason to draw something to hurt anyone. I understand that this might be misunderstood since her activities are extremely well known in Western culture, but in my country, she doesn't have the same level of influence or attention for all of her usual activities so I had no idea. I'll make sure to do some research before drawing something I don't know well.

I do appreciate it. Was trying to be clear, this isn't about you, more the subject matter. Doesn't help that the term "Malfoid" also has some misogynistic roots to it, since "foid" is also an online term used as a derogatory slur towards women. A lot of angles of this trend just aren't the most appropriate, though it's understandable when people aren't aware of it.

Thank you for being so graceful about this, and thank you for showing good faith in addressing this issue. I look forward to enjoying your art again. Love from Canada!

JTveemo

Thank you for explaining. I can manage usual English conversation, but I find it difficult to judge the root of words or the true meanings of newly created terms. So I'm not sure that I won't make the same mistake again. However, I don't really use slur words even in my first language so I have no reason to use those kinds of words in English either. If I ever bring another inappropriate term by mistake, I would really appreciate it if someone could let me know.

It's all good. I probably should have offered my reasoning for my disapproval in my first comment, but I'm really grateful for your understanding on this. I'll happily look forward to your future posts!
