Drama with Nikki has been going on for years. Let's break it down. The main reason why Niki attracts drama is because she's a conceited little bitch. That's the basis of it.
Nikki can not take critique. Her white knights will shove the opposite down your throat until they are blue, but the reality is that she refuses to take critique. Her white knights will give you screen shots of her accepting critique however she will never edit the picture or apply it in any future artwork. She's on a public art site and she can't even understand that the basis of art is learning how to accept critique, no matter how harsh. Nikki thinks she's above critique and she refuses to accept that she's not.
Nikki's a wolf artist. As with any wolf artists she's automatically popular since wolves are like the second coming of Jesus to the copious amounts of dumbass preteen wolfaboos on this site. She attracts them like flies to sparkly garbage. Like any generic wolf artist, Nikki is unable to draw them for shit. They have retarded anime hair, sparkle like makings which in reality will get them killed in the natural setting she depicts them in, and they lack personalities. Her characters are retarded, and when someone tries to help her improve the, she brushes them off as a troll or flamer.
Nikki can not keep promises nor a schedule. She's had commission to do since JULY. She hasn't even started any of them yet. I wouldn't be surprised if her inbox was full of people asking for refunds. She states that she's so busy, however in all reality she's what 16? 17? Any teenager will tell you that there lives are not that hectic. A school play will not take away every single aspect of your life. She's bullshtting her fans and her paying customers and its pissing people off. She could at least show some sketches.
Nikki is so insulting yet she doesn't even realize it. She aspires to get into Disney, yet she can't draw anything but sparklewolves. She claims that she's met animators and that a friend of her MAY be able to meet Glen Keane and that will automatically imbue her with the animation prowess to get into Disney. She's kidding herself and she's insulting every single person out there who has actually worked her ass off to get into the animation/art industry. She thinks that just becasue she meets someone from the animation team she will automatically get in. What she fails to realize is that they will never let her in becasue of her USI, her inability to keep a schedule, and her inability to fucking draw. She's an idiot.
Everyone who doesn't kiss Nikki's ass is a troll or a flamer. This is how Nikki views the world. It's a classic case of USI (Unwarranted Self Importance). If you give her a harsh critique: TROLL! if you tell her she can't get into Disney: FLAMER! If you tell her to actually make the artwork she was paid to make: TROLL! If you tell her to get off her lazy ass and deal with all the drama on her page: FLAMER! And her response to trolls and flamers: make shitty artwork with her and her fuckbuddy Zan poking them like she's above them.
She can't be arsed to basic research. Let's talk about the main characters in her comic. Moon (dumbest name ever) has a British accent. There are absolutely no wolves in Britain and thus the fact that she has a accent is unrelated. The only other place that I know of that has people with slight British accents is Malta and they don't have wolves either. Assuva is a Dire Wolf yet his son, Akimitsu (weaboo name much?) is a Grey wolf. His mother is a Timber Wolf. This family does not make any sense. Dire Wolf + Timber Wolf=/= Grey Wolf. First of all Dire Wolves are extinct. They have been for thousands of Years. Assuva looks absolutely nothing like a Dire Wolf. Here's an artist representation of one (the one on the left): [link] and here's a cartoonist's representation which is one of the more accurate ones out there: [link] . In addition, I would imagine that Timber's and Dire's offspring would be some sort of hybrid. (I'm assuming this since a dog+wolf or wolf+ anything else in the canis family would be a hybrid.) The genes that determine his species would experience Incomplete Dominance and he would have a fusion of the two wolf's traits. Thus she's classified Akimitsu's species incorrectly. In short Nikki needs to go back to 9th grade and retake Biology.
Nikki is a weeaboo. She will deny this as if you told her she was the Anti-Christ. It's written all over her page. Moon, Assuva, Akimitsu, Mei, Shirou. All of those are weeaboo names. Her comic that never happened, Okinawa-Te, was based in Japan and was about an anthro wolf who became he neck Jackie Chan. Back in the day, when she first started out her comic, she had wolf characters that were ninja's and wore samurai armour. Yeah, she's obsessed with Japan and she doesn't want to admit it.
Nikki's comic sucks ass. It's true. It's a generic wolf story about sparkledogs in some sort of war with evil black wolves for no apparent reason. Apparently the bitch had the fucking audacity to bastardize Greek mythology and shove some of that in their too. And to top it all off, she's selling this shit. Preteen weaboos do not have money to shell out for their latest sparkledog fantasies.
Ok, I just read it.. and I have to say, this makes me sad. No matter how stupid people are, even when they behave like an big dumbish asshole, you should not care. Taking someones self-esteem is just...wha.. I don't have any words for that. You should not care, you all should not care. Giving somebody the feeling that he's the ugliest stupidest person on the world isn't very helpful.
We should all work on a better world, and not steal everyones will to live.
like I've mentioned it before, why such a text? this is just horrible... this is so.. sad.
but, I have to admit, in some cases I agree with you, but this whole text got destroyed because of the abuse, the insults and whatever.. why do you have to abuse smb. like that?
now, I wanna list up some things, I've read which are just..nye
"She's on a public art site and she can't even understand that the basis of art is learning how to accept critique, no matter how harsh"
Yes, everybody has to accept critique. But critique stopps to be critique, when someone tells me/you "do that FUCKING foot right, thats FUCKING UGLY, THE PIC IS FUCKING UGLY" and that's not critique. If someone wants to tell me his opinion, ok right, but I don't have to listen to him when he's just abusing me and what I've drawn.
to the whole statement about critique, how I've mentioned before: That's her thing. Why do you care if she doesn't listen to your critique? Maybe she doesn't want to take critique really, or she's just fine with them what she's drawing.
"They have retarded anime hair, sparkle like makings which in reality will get them killed in the natural setting she depicts them in, and they lack personalities. Her characters are retarded, and when someone tries to help her improve the, she brushes them off as a troll or flamer."
Again: Maybe she's happy with them what she draws, maybe she wants to improve by herself, and just doesn't want to draw something different.. if she likes sparkling wolves, why don't you let her? why do you care? It's her thing. If someones drawing just faces all the time, no one cares... I know that all the people are fed up with the wolf loving teenagers, but, abuse her like this? Just because she likes to draw them like million of other "stupid little girls"?
"Nikki can not keep promises nor a schedule. She's had commission to do since JULY. She hasn't even started any of them yet. I wouldn't be surprised if her inbox was full of people asking for refunds. She states that she's so busy, however in all reality she's what 16? 17? Any teenager will tell you that there lives are not that hectic. A school play will not take away every single aspect of your life. She's bullshtting her fans and her paying customers and its pissing people off. She could at least show some sketches" that's something what I have to agree. that's not good, not in any way. You should do commissions, in anyway. but, what about the " you can't be busy when your 16" - thing.. that's not true.. you can also be busy in that age. it doesn't depends on how old you are... could it be that, if she was 40 or something, and she would say "I'm too busy" - nobody would ask? that's not acceptable. and how dou you dare to say she's bullshiting her customers and so on? do you know her SO well that you can say she has nothing to do, or something? do you know her sooo good in real life?
" Nikki is so insulting yet she doesn't even realize it. She aspires to get into Disney, yet she can't draw anything but sparklewolves. She claims that she's met animators and that a friend of her MAY be able to meet Glen Keane and that will automatically imbue her with the animation prowess to get into Disney.

do you know that she can ONLY draw sparkling wolves? how do you know that? If someone just draws the things he love over and over again, it's not a crime. If you and others don't like it, don't watch/see/look at it.. Let her dreams be. Isn't everybody just making sometimes illusions of their own life? Are you ALWAYS staying with your both feet on earth? Didn't you have impossible imaginations when you were young?
and she's an idiot because she's dreaming..? she's hoping? that's just not true.
She can't be arsed to basic research. Let's talk about the main characters in her comic. Moon (dumbest name ever) has a British accent. There are absolutely no wolves in Britain and thus the fact that she has a accent is unrelated.

it's her comic, so this can be unrealistic as she wants. It's comic. It's art. this CAN be unrealistic. It's that way she wants it, again: why do you care? It's her thing . It's her right to do such things, you all don't have to care. Not everything in comics and animations have to be biological right... that's just... nye
and in the Lion King the lions are talking. so, the creators have to go back to the 9th grade because it is IMPOSSIBLE that lions can talk... So they don't have ANY biological knowledge?
----- So, in some points I have to agree, but no matter how "shit" this person is, you have NEVER the right to wright such something horrible... that people can DO such things and even think they are right, is sad... I see, that Nikki isn't the perfect person, but nobody is ( yeah, I know, the typical sentence)... taking someones self-esteem , to take their confidence is just wrong...
I don't know you all and I don't know Nikki either , but the whole thing is WRONG
And the last thing: sorry for the often incorrect English, but today was not a good day for it
Forgive me for being so clueless, I haven't really heard much besides this about Nikki, and I've only seen a few of her drawings, but can I ask something without getting a smartass response? It's cool that you posted this, it's your opinion, yada yada, but what's so different about her art? Looking through her gallery it looks like any cartoonist's art to me. I could be wrong and just be a total derp at wolves' anatomy, but most of it seems right to me. Sure, her color choices are unrealistic, but most artists that I see on dA use unreasonable colors on their characters. I do see your point about the whole hybrid vs. purebred thing. A Dire and a Timber would not magically create a Grey. Maybe the mother was cheating on Assuva From what I'm reading, it sounds like she could very well benefit from taking critiques into consideration. But I have to say, if you're going to criticize her about all this, you might as well address every single wolf artist (including me, although I try not to stick completely to wolves) on dA. Am I right, or have I lost my mind? Or should I just shut up before I make myself sound any dumber? So maybe that was more than one question, but my main question here was this: How is she any different from most wolf cartoonists on here? And I appreciate your passion in writing this long comment. It takes a lot of passionate (apparently negative) feelings to go on like that about a person. At least you've got your views straight. Props to you.
You make several good points, and I, like you, unwatched her for the same reasons. All this shit is crazy, and if she doesn't want to get charged, she needs to get her ass in gear. In the US you can be tried as an adult in the court at 14, she's 16/17 and what she's doing is definitely court worthy. Amusing how people continue to back her up after all this ridiculous shit. If she couldn't handle the commissions, she should have just sent the money back and apologized because she was so "busy". (She probably went and spent it all anyways .)
I love you so much. This made me laugh pretty damn hard.
I don't know who you are but i have to agree with everything you say. My animation teacher is friends with some animators at disney(they went to college) they came in and told us just how hard to get and keep a job it is in Disney and they critiqued all of us. Basically, they chuckled when they saw mine and a couple other students animal drawings since disney has moved away from that. However, I tip my hat to you sir or madam this has made my day to read. Any of her fans that say your being to harsh should look at her art really closely.

That's Nikki in a nutshell. Any questions?
