You've already made 5 threads. How about preventing from making a 6th one by -ADDING- onto the others?

Yeah, you've made too many threads here. Instead of making a thread after you've made something, why don't you make one thread where you put all your new graphics that you want us to see? That way everyone is happy .

You just assume I'm pissed off because I'm soo hard on him, but if anyone in there right mind was set on my level, I wouldn't want someone posting there crappy pictures all over this forum. If Bloo Kat was better than me at drawing, then I'm sure he wouldn't be putting up all of these half-assed characters that looked like something that I could draw years and years ago. I would go into alot better detail, but I want to be tempted first.

You know, I'm not even going to bother debating this matter with you... I've never seen a thing you've made. And even still that was entirely uncalled for

If you're such a great Artist, it doesn't mean it gives you the right to make fun of everyone else... You don't see me on other people's threads telling them they suck.

It doesn't matter if you haven't seen my work or not. I don't have to show you anything in order to be able to critisize you.

Ok that does it deek, if you think Bloo cats art work is half assed then there is something wrong with you... I dont really care if he did go away from the forums because people dident like his graphic. Hes back now which shows a lot more of a persons character to not give up then it does of a person who calls them self the best and who doesnt even prove it. Ive seen some of your work and it is very nice, people have seen my work and said it was very nice also but me and bloo kat dont go around braging to others about our work now do we?

Quit making false accusations. I never said I was the best, nor will I ever will. That's your opinion, and not mine. I could care less what you say, because your opinion of my 'bragging' is also a false accusation.

No, it's not. I was reffering to my skill, which if you think is considered 'boasting' then you must be pretty arrogant.

The only arrogancy I see in here is you waltzing in... Saying all my work is half assed, not making any effort to help me improve at all.

Which I still doubt you can...

And at the end of the day... Who's really going to care what happened in this stupid forum?

Hell by tommorrow morning I know I'll forget... I can barely remember my name when I wake up

I can't give you good enough critisizm? I've given you that before, but I suppose you ignored me (I can see why you would ) but now that you're saying I can't I'm just going to have to let it go.
1 Signature:
You're lighting is bad. It looks like you just used too many brighter shades and less fewer darker shades. You pratically hightlighted the details with white, making everything seem like it has a reflective/glossy surface (which is more noticeable on the clothing and the cloak wrapping around his neck rather than his skin texture (which also has the same context to it)). I guess this would be OK for something like Graal, though none of that stuff would fit in with it very well. Graal is more cartoony/doesn't deal with shading much and stuff. Most of the rest of the picture is pretty dark to me, so all of the other details of the picture as soaked into the almost-black background. Whats with the purple on the bottom, anyways? The charater's posture is bad, also. If those are legs sticking out on the bottom of his torso, there sticking out so that it looks like he's leaning backwards, which kinda gives off a bad look for whatever he's doing. The left leg is also much skinnier than the right one (or whatever is on his leg is making it seem bigger than it is)
2 Santa Claus
Ok, alot of things wrong with this one. First of all, the posture is wrong on this one, too. Your characters lean back too much. But since he's doing whatever it seems to fit in and be more suitable than the one in your signature. The folding on his pants are bad (too big and too few of them, and the fact that there in the wrong place, too), and it makes it seem that his legs are flat. The muscle detail is also bad on it. Just to sum it up, you should focus more on what the detail shows rather then tossing it here and there and assuming what's there is going to be right.
3 Sephiroth
::sigh:: I'm getting tired of this already. His hair is the main concern here (and you didn't even finish it ). It just looks like you took gray lines and dashed it here and there. Same thing for the bangs, except they look more uncontrolled and sketchy than the rest of the picture. His shoulder blades look a little bit flat, too. You only focused the shading where they overlap each other, and not around the sides or corners.
Kingdom Hearts
::nuke::
Read: 1 and 2.
Robot
Pah
Read: 1 and 2. Actually, just read all of them over and over again.

because we feel we need to twist, and complicate things in our own way, assuming our twisted, and complicated views are the truth, when the truth becomes obvious, how they came to make these twisted views, and why they had to share them. simpley knowing this is answer enough to resolve the argument, but not to change their twisted views...

Because Bloo made a fool of himself by saying he was going to leave here and go to other forums to show off his work because we were hard on him. I guess they said they same thing when they saw his work, so he came back here, even though he said he wasn't comming back.

So? I still commented on your dithering effects. I wasn't critisizing your work for doing something that's been done before (redrawing sephiroth to fit your character description or whatnot)
Quote:
Hi, Deek. Can I borrow some of your ego?
I don't have any to share. Whatever I have left is either non existant, or very, very little. I'd like you to show me where I'm bloating my ego.

From those two quotes, I can tell you the only person that's a lady with wrists-a-swinging is you.

Honestly, how lame is that.
I come back to this "when I'm driving my car, and I see someone cross the street, I hit them, because they're hittable"

why did you have to go and insult me, I was just trying to bring the situation down to a simmer, in a amusing fashion, I exagerated so that it would seem so outrages, the people involved wouldn't be insulted. and what does he do? he takes me seriously.. Deek, you need to chill, you're on the defensive.

using logic as an insult only stings, and makes the the people involved angry, so they like to make comments possibley non related. anyways you shouldn't use it in that context.. but that's a tip, not a command.

why did you have to go and insult me, I was just trying to bring the situation down to a simmer, in a amusing fashion, I exagerated so that it would seem so outrages, the people involved wouldn't be insulted. and what does he do? he takes me seriously.. Deek, you need to chill, you're on the defensive.
No you weren't. Insulting people while trying to make them 'simmer' down is not going to help anything.
