Hussie’s art style is so weirdly unique to where I haven’t seen one person draw it quite the way he does and it’s weird because it’s so simple And the other weird thing about that is that when you start/ plan to read homestuck the art style is one of the biggest turn-offs of the comic but as you get to the end you start to just like adore it and I want to see it all the time

[atalana]

I think what makes it so great is that his grip on anatomy and perspective is very very good - like, normally simply styles allow for more mistakes in that respect, but no, hussie’s art (the properly drawn panels, not the sprites) definitely exists in a realistic 3D space

But then everything is simplified down as much as possible, and stylised.

The style itself changed over time, starting with very thin and extended limbs

and ending up very round, with puppet-like limbs, and small bean fingers

in both cases you end up with an art style where no shading or lines are used, only block colour in a pixellated pseudo-mspaint style (since it’s not actually drawn in mspaint).

but i think what hussie grasps better than a lot of artists is how to make a character unique and iconic - both in their design and their personality/dialogue. he comes up with a set of simple rules and he sticks to them. not to say he creates simple characters, the characters themselves have a lot of depth, but the way they are expressed is always in one basic format that’s unique to them. they have typing quirks and language quirks and instantly recognisable silhouettes, despite the extremely simplistic format.

that post going around with the two canon pictures of rose is a good example. the range of headcanons for the homestuck kids covers just about the entire spectrum of the human race, yet no one is ever confused about which character they’re looking at.

and yeah hussie’s art doesn’t get enough appreciation
