Sorry roran, but there's something I need to tell you.
Quote:Can I get this thread locked? If all this is going to cause trouble then it would be better gone. If you want more of my artwork you can PM me.... I don't want any fighting because of me anymore...
If you're serious in this path or any other, you're gonna find lots of people who disagree. Even a first rate artist like me (at least is what I think of myself) has gone through many downs, like when I posted stuff in this site and the DHZ and nobody would reply, while crappy artists like P..... and K....... would get lots of undeserved praise. The key is not to hide and blush like you did. Wise WAS right, only that he wasn't polite. What will you do when you find people that are not polite, but wrong as well? You shouldn't be hard on yourself; you should take note of your mistakes and fix them. Even I, after 17 years of painting, commit lots of mistakes, because we all do. We'll never achieve perfection. But with each picture, we get closer to it.
And since you're not a professional, it's good to take note of what people who know better say; it'll help you skip over your errors.
I will tell you a couple of really big ones more, and I hope you fix them.
Quote:I know the lighting doesn't work and I don't really care
Never. If it doesn't work, it needs to have a reason. If you don't have it, make it up. But never, NEVER say that.
Quote:it is a modern abstract piece
Nope, you said it's surreal.
Abstract=one thing.
Surreal=another.
And a last thing....For the first time, I will make a little power abuse and leave the topic open, only for you, roran, to reply. I want you to tell that you haven't lost your spirit because of this, and only then, I will lock this. So please, everyone else leave it open. I won't allow anyone who follows the path of art to give up.
