Look at what I’ve made from pieces of chapter 1 of sancirc:

Bruh, if this goes unrecognised by Windy I will cry. ;-;

@trackalaka yooooooooo big fan of your work but i have some assorted constructive criticism for you :] just some things you might want to take into account in your work going forward. i am a white person so take this with a grain of salt but most of this was pointed out by a friend of mine who is a poc and who is also far more familiar with your work than i am so such is at it goes:

you seem to have had a habit of drawing poc with white features (up until recently, which is a improvement) however one of the only characters that has them is a black woman with vitiligo that is a violent werewolf and happens to have a backstory of murdering another (lighter skinned) character's boyfriend and traumatizing her, which reinforces the racist sterotype that black women are violent and out-of-control monsters. it would be good to keep a close eye on how you portray characters of color, especially darker skinned ones, in your work going forward.

in sanity circus, fletch is the first main character of color introduced, and he is introduced by kicking attley (the white main character) in the face and then yelling at her, which sets him up as the angry poc stereotype. he is only colored with darker skin tones and is racially ambiguous along with his father (a man of color) being killed onscreen, which is used to push attley (who is, again, white)'s tragedy.

in addition to that, nimbus, who is also a character of color, is initially portrayed as cowardly and is drawn with a thin nose, blue eyes, and straight hair even though he's dark skinned. also, the string quarter, who are all darker skinned, are portrayed as violent and aggressive to white and white-coded characters like posey, attley, and steven.

outside of your own work, it has also been noticed that you continually ignore drawings of attley as a person of color in favor of interacting with ones where she's white, even when they're significantly less detailed.

INNNN conclusion: none of this is to say that you actively mean harm to people of color, or intend to represent them negatively in your work, but it's good to be aware of things you might not realize you're doing, espeically when they're perpetuating harmful sterotypes or beliefs. take this criticism into account and make an effort do better in your work doing forward, as is your responsibility as a content creator. thank you and have a good day!

New playlist! Here’s a birthday fanmix for my friend @trackalaka​ Windy’s comic, The Sanity Circus! This playlist was the most challenging of the webcomic playlists I’ve made, because Windy and I have very dissimilar music tastes so I couldn’t base the playlist around music we both like. But I finally gathered enough suitable songs for a meaty playlist.

This playlist is hosted on Spotify, so click the link above to see the full track list! I hope SanCirc fans enjoy it!
