Is fan art better than official designs?

Depends on what you want. Fanart can look good but will almost always be off model while official designs can be wonky on a fundamental level but they'll be "right". Personally I always prefer the canon official designs because fanartists like to shove tits and ass onto anything deforming the original design into unrecognizable levels, pic related being one of the worst victims of it.

The reason why Sans has pink sneakers in Smash is because Undertale fans commonly drew Sans that way and Toby Fox and Temmie liked the idea so much that they made it official.

I think both have their own merits. The most important thing is the creativity of the image.

Yes except for porn.
Porn needs to be on model to be good. Anyone who disagrees is a mindless gooner who should not be taken seriously.

Based and true.

Right was unnecessary "canonification" to spite fanartists so I take the left

But right's how she's always looked?

>>716383846
Explain

>>716383846
But thats how she looks in Hollow Knight?

>>716383846
It's not like she was rocking an hourglass shape in the first game that they didn't intend.

Sexo...

>on model
idiots spouting this don't even know what a "model" is
here's a hint, dumbass, nobody besides zone and chucklefucks on /aco/ make "on model" porn, if only because hardly any character sheets account for the naked look
or anime bitches i guess, considering they are designed to have one of the same few bodytypes from the ground up

Art is a personal expression. It can look like whatever the artist wants. Sometimes it's intentionally unrealistic or not like the original depiction.

Matchstick sexo

Been getting a lot of use out of this image recently

Sometimes. Also, companies really should try to make their female characters more attractive. Sex sells whether people find it morally problematic or not, it's Human nature and trying to over correct for it will always lead to creating bigger problems. Most ladies have a fairly nice pair of jugs and a good ass, so let it be true in fiction as well. Feminine beauty is severely underrated.

I like when Hornet has a bug abdomen :)
