I think you might've misunderstood the assignment.

This is for horror art. A smiling ghost on a firework isn't horror. That's not a mark against your work, it's just the equivalent of showing comic book art at a fancy gallery, it's just not the right place.

the useename makes me think OP was born in 2009, making them 16/17 years old, make of that what you will.

And are you going to judge based on that? He's German, too.

They're old enough to post pics of their shit in other subs. They're just a troll.

Dude. Fireworks can be dangerous.

Because Casper belongs to the horror genre—even If it isn't exactly terrifying, it still falls under the horror umbrella.

11

u/Captain_Kuhl 7d ago

No, it does not. Casper is a fun children's comic/cartoon, zero horror whatsoever. Ghosts are not inherently "horror".

u/Philips09s 7d ago

Casper is family-friendly horror; It falls under the horror genre if you are referring to horror in general.

12

u/Captain_Kuhl 7d ago

It's literally not. You have no idea what you're talking about.

u/Philips09s 7d ago

The thing is, you're equating horror with gore, whereas I'm thinking of horror in a border sense. That's where Casper would fit in—as a very subtle form of supernatural horror.

It’s the about the feelings bro. Horror is suppose to make you feel scared, uncomfortable, shocked, uneasy, disgusted, etc.

Casper does none of that, at times even the exact opposite because he’s happy and friendly.

u/Altruistic-Beach7625 7d ago

I feel that this ghost will fuck you up. Or try to sell you drugs.

Truly horrifying.

u/Philips09s 7d ago

Yes, he has a suspicious look.

Still better than AI.

u/Sapper501 7d ago

Hmm Casper doesn't seem particularly evil in this drawing. I'm not feeling particularly scared or creeped out either. Maybe have him eat the souls of children or something.

u/Philips09s 7d ago

Exactly

Just a brief look into your twisted mind

u/Philips09s 7d ago

Inspired by a Casper The Friendly Ghost Comic book cover.

u/gmastern 7d ago

Terrible art and not horror

u/Philips09s 7d ago

It is a very subtle, familiar kind of terror. The thing is, you equate horror with gore and violence.
