Vivzepop will always be the biggest issue with her own show if she doesn't change. And i'm not saying that because I desperately want to shit on her but rather because it's so clear that her attitude is what made Hazbin Hotel be so dissapointing after the long wait. The pilot released four years ago and Viv had these characters for much longer than that. One could assume that with this much time on her hands she would have a concise plan for how a series of her story would play out (I can imagine that having an own show is a dream for lots of creative people out there). And I get that that plan might get screwed up by a shorter episode count then expected, but she should be the one who knows her story best and who should know what stuff could also be cut out. The first season of Hazbin Hotel is so incredibly overstuffed with characters and plot that it completely looses the main premise the show was originally pitched with (the idea of a hotel were sinners are redeemed. As it is now the hotel is really not important at all). People have talked endlessly about how Viv can't handle criticism and it really sucks because criticism is one of the best ways to improve your writing, drawings, music etc. Without criticism you won't refine the thing you're working on in a meaningful way. Of course it feels bad when you put something out there you wanted to share and then people critique it, but that's part of pretty much every creative journey, or atleast it should be and Vivzepop shouldn't get a pass from this just because she doesn't like it. And there are great shows, movies or books that are rarely or almost never criticised. But the artists behind these works probably went trough years of honing what they do by being criticised for the stuff they put out. And I don't want to say that Vivzepop didn't work hard to make Hazbin Hotel, but it is hard to claim that she improves in her craft, when everytime someone says they don't like her show she throws a hissy fit. She wants the same reactions that these other amazing pieces of media get without ever listening to criticism. Which she sees as a personal attack rather than a tool that could help her to achieve the same level of writing prowess the creators behind media like that have. She believes she is already on the same level as them, just because she basically shuts anyone out who disagrees with her. There's this clip at the end of a Drew Gooden Video which I think sums up the situation with Viv pretty good (the Video is called "Leaving the YouTube Bubble"). He is talking about Lily Singh and her talk show but I feel like a lot of the stuff he says about handling criticism applies to Vivzepop as well.

(you might have to turn up the audio).

Unprofessional behaviour like that might be excusable when the creator is pretty young or they are interacting with publicity for the first time really. But neither of that applies to Viv. And Hazbin Hotel isn't just an indie animation pilot on youtube anymore. It's now a fully realized show created with a pretty prominent studio on a major streaming network and it should be held to the same standards as other shows or movies alike (not saying indie animation or animation on youtube doesn't have a standard but with more budget and support, there's obviously going to be different expectations for the show now). There have been issues in Helluva Boss and the Hazbin Hotel pilot ever since their release which could've been handled with more time and the new show. But Vivzepop shows time and time again that she isn't willing to listen to people who criticise her, which could actually lead to her show getting better. I don't like Viv or her work a lot. I think she is incredibly unprofessional and she has done her fair share of questionable or problematic stuff, which often leads to issues in her shows. There have been some characters I like, some songs or scenes that were pretty well done, very cool animation and an actually interesting premise on paper in HH and HB. There are things that make me come back to these shows to watch the next episode. And i'm obviously passionate enough about these shows to make whole posts about what I think was done badly and what could be changed. But for the aspects of HH or HB I enjoy, there are soo many more problems I have with it. Problems that won't go away unless Viv stops seeing every criticism as a personal attack. Because if Vivzepop doesn't stop acting like her writing is some unreachable stuff that needs no changes I don't really see a point in assuming that these shows will ever get better.

“Stickers?” Sally asked and looked at Lightning.

“Yes?” Lightning replied and looked into her beautiful eyes. He never could get enough of just looking at her.

“Did you ever regret crashing into Radiator Springs?”

“Not even once,” the answer came without hesitation. “That’s the best thing that ever happened to me. And you are the most beautiful and amazing woman I’ve ever met.”

Sally couldn’t even reply to that. With a soft chuckle of hers, she blushed.

“You stole my heart, Sal,” Lightning said after giving her a gentle kiss.

“And your jacket.”

Lightning had to chuckle at her remark. “Yeah, and my jacket. But I wouldn’t want it any other way.”

So this is actually my new favorite piece

[imaginative-123]

the council ( @honor-among-thieves ) has spoken.

psa this is not my official lightning mcqueen gijinka design, but turns out that when you make my oc blond and put him in a racesuit, he gives lightning mcqueen energy. (here's the original version)

I don't even know how to tag this?? like, it's technically not cyrus, but it's also technically not lightning mcqueen.

anyway, this was a very unprecedented direction for my art to go.

Little sketch. Drew this last year for my first AO3 cars fanfic.

[imaginative-123]

Another sketch from one of my first fanfics from last year. Context: Lightning McQueen was threatened by Harv. His agent had evidence against him to ruin his career. (Lightning used an illegal engine without knowing). He got overwhelmed and ran into the desert near Radiator Springs. Shortly after that he fainted from heatstroke. Doc found him. All good. XD

[imaginative-123]

Context: In my first story Lightning rediscovered his love to draw. After returning from the Florida race he drew this picture at home. So it’s not mine. It’s his actually. ;) Should’ve put his signature under it. I actually have one version with that.
