No, I love anime. Your style just irks me somehow. :/

Me and my friend draw anime stuff all the time in school, He doesnt like anime as much as me, he's not into it really but he watches some of it. D: So we end up drawing lots of stuff, he's done some good fanart.

Nawt Bad. ;D You know me, It's good but eh, your art style kind of irks me in someway. Don't know why, it just does. xD

That and I can't seem to view half of your drawings in this topic. :Psyduck:

It irks you because its anime and yet not generic regurgitated crappy anime stuff like you younger generations seem to like.

You like things because they're pretty. I dont base my opinions on a piece solely on subject, i try to focus on design aspects, and how things were executed.

Sorry I'm not into drawing stick thin girls with oversized eyes, and weird hair colours[riedrid is as weird as it gets with her hair.] :P

I've long outgrown those days :P


And as for not being able to veiw some of my stuff, its because DeviantART's having some serious issues lately. Not my fault :P

Check back some other time to veiw them maybe? I dunno.

Oh, and Saturos. Tablets are god, i suggest you invest in one. You won't be disappointed. Even though theyre kinda hard to get used to, and if you suffer from like carpal tunnel or anything like I do, it can be hard on the wrists at first until they adjust to working differently.

Sometimes individual art pages can get a little laggy for me on dA as well, but browsing the gallery from the artists' page on appears to fix the timing out issues most of the time for me.

Even though dA in its entirety is being incredibly laggy for me. I think they may be having server problems.

I wouldn't judge why Linoud would not be a huge fan of your art style. After all, it's his mind; I'm not sure how you can be so confident that you know how it works. Sorry, if that seems random, but your comments bother me, especially with putting down other people's styles.

Anyway, your art is nice. I'm not a huge fan of some of the thick lines or side-shots, but the colors are pretty good overall, as is the depth.

What age are you, srsly. like 19? 20? 3 - 4 years older than me. Not much of a difference. Regurgitated anime? I've never seen anything similar to DN Angel or Samurai Champloo to be honest, and they're both pretty damn good with the styles.

Yours doesnt remind me of anime really. o_o;

@Pendant: I said what I did because just saying something 'irks' you is implying that there is something -wrong- with how the images come out.

Theres alot of issues with my work. But just saying "It irks me" and not trying to even delve into why that may be, is rude.

I'm not here to please every one, but my goal is to recieve constructive criticism.

If Linoud had said "Theres something off thats not seeming quite right here. Try cleaning up your lines, or using more contrast between your shading/highlights. Also your faces are disproportionate, look up some tutorials on proper facial proportions."

Or anything like that. Those are the kind of comments I really love to recieve. I mean, I love all comments, but C&C is so awesome :D

just saying "It irks me" doesnt quite make sense to me. Why does it bother you? Why not go more into that. If you dont know, then give examples of work that -doesnt- bother you, and I can try and see what about how I approach the technicals and discuss it with you.

Its not hard.

Sorry if I came off as being all "RAWRRWRUI#UT#(YU#%UY". But thats just how I am. Im blunt like that. I may seem mean when I make crits, but no one can ever improve if they get coddled with their art.

My greatest improvements came in a five month span through college, where I was perpetually slammed and told that I was wrong all the time because I draw in an anime-like style. And the professors dont like it, because the bottom line is you will not be hired by a game firm if you draw anime. They didnt try to sound nice about anything, they told me to suck it up and do it over again.

And I thank them for it.

@Amber: Thanks hun, and dont mind Linoud, he and I have these... heated discussions all the time. XD <3

@Linoud: Yeah, I'm turning 20 fairly shortly. It may not seem like it, but three years is a big difference. You and my sister are the same age, and if you talked to her, she would tell you to your face that I'm more like a mother than a sister. My -age- is far beyond my years.

That aside.

You can instinctively tell when something is anime because of the look. No matter what it is. Wether its Kouta Hirano's work, or a Miyazaki film. Its anime. And 9/10 people know it. Being an anime enjoyer yourself, you would know.

To me, anime has become overrated, and any one who can draw anime, even marginally well, suddenly thinks theyre an artist. Which isnt necessarily the case. But people worship these 'artists' which never helps the situation. And whats worse, I used to be one of those 'artists'. I used to think that just because I could draw anime some what well, and I had a small group of people who thought like me, and only ever told me that I was awesome. I never improved or changed. Until college.

Anime, although to draw it well takes a long time, and its an uphill battle, is not concidered to be a true form of art. Which is why I've quit calling myself an artist. If anything, i could maybe be concidered only half of one. Half of me is segregated into doing my anime-like comic style, while the other likes to do traditional still life and landscape paintings.

Anime has become over-popularized and far too overrated I'm afraid.

Which of course, has left me in that boat as well. :P

Anyway. Move on to some one elses topic to look at their work. Theyre far more deserving anyway.

He can be more constructive if he knew what it was that irked him.

It's not that big of a deal, anyway. Or at least shouldn't be. It distracts people from the actual point of this thread: the art.

So keep it to IM or PM, plz. :Psyduck:
