[QUOTE=kabookie;24463443]I can see where you're coming from with the blockiness, but as far as the smudging, I honestly think you don't know the contour of a female body. Every shadow is where it should be.[/QUOTE] I didn't complain about the shadow. I complained about the smudge.
[QUOTE=dgg;24463455]I didn't complain about the shadow. I complained about the smudge.[/QUOTE] Then please, show me how it should blend, I'm intrigued. And I don't mean that in a smartass way at all.
[QUOTE=kabookie;24463501]Then please, show me how it should blend, I'm intrigued. And I don't mean that in a smartass way at all.[/QUOTE] Well, I think it's easier if I say it like this: Not like this: [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3655193/Figureout.jpg[/img] You've got smudge that goes outside of the foot area, one colour shoves away another colour and they basically don't blend at all but rather attacks each other. [img]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3655193/Figureout2.jpg[/img]
Okay, understandable, but to say "It also looks horrible, really." Because of a blending problem on the foot is reaaaallly taking the piss dont you think?
[QUOTE=kabookie;24463705]Okay, understandable, but to say "It also looks horrible, really." Because of a blending problem on the foot is reaaaallly taking the piss dont you think?[/QUOTE] No, I think everything about it looks horrible. Didn't you read everything I said in the first post? The cutout filter look, the bad smudging that goes on here and there, the horrible look of the font and how it is put to overlay, the randomness of sinful words. There was nothing about it that I liked really. It is a mix of personal taste and objective technical execution.
I was taking your comments to heart until I checked your portfolio. I appreciate the CC but dude, before you take the piss you should really listen to your own advice.
It's horrible all around Not directed at above poster.
[QUOTE=kabookie;24463823]I was taking your comments to heart until I checked your portfolio. I appreciate the CC but dude, before you take the piss you should really listen to your own advice.[/QUOTE] I've never seen myself as a good artist and I don't see how that is relevant either. What I know theoretically and what I can see has nothing to do with what I can practically do. You don't see movie critics making movies, book critics writing books, game critics developing games or music critics making music. The portfolio was also a forced one as it was a school task so I had to put something in it, personally I didn't want anything in it because I didn't have anything that was good enough to put in it.

[QUOTE=kabookie;24463996]That's like telling a doctor he is performing his surgery wrong, then when he hands you the forceps, telling him you only know a lot about it.[/QUOTE] Is there something wrong with pointing out what he did wrong if he did something wrong? Should I keep letting the doctor do something wrong just because I can't do it right myself? After all I can tell him what he should do to do it right, I just can't do it myself. You really want me to basically take suicide when I can prevent the doctor from doing something wrong and save my own life? I think you need to rework your logic here. There is a saying that goes something like this: "The best critic is one that knows nothing about the subject". Exactly how it goes I'm not sure of, but the point is the same.
No, it's not about that thought, you didn't correct the doctor and tell him that, you just told him he sucked, and you don't like it, and he has to work on his technique. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for CC, but people like you who have more advice to offer than experience (i'm using this loosly) just makes me lol. also lol @ going from smudging to doctors, I'm leaving this thread, I need sleep. But you know I love you hard dgg, no hostility.

The doctor just couldn't catch the advice because he got stuck up in the negativity in the words and forgot the advice that laid in them. I can understand that, but it's also a point you should get rid off because practical experience has nothing to do with theoretical knowledge. I would be surprised if there was some hostility in this. Love you too man.
:love:
[QUOTE=kabookie;24463230]It's actually a digital painting, and the feeling behind it is suppose to suggest promiscuity amongst women. The font is suppose to match her flesh tone.[/QUOTE] Less smudge tool > Awesome? Ok apparently I was looking at the wrong page, but still. I think we all can reach consensus that its not just a "style", and that it actually doesnt fit.
It's far from digital painting and you're an wannabe artsy fartsy dude with little or no skills at all regarding anatomy and vectoring. And that isn't a style, it's pure, concentrated lazy It's basically a filterrape that has some effort in it. An art gallery bouncer would slap the stupid out of you if you wanted to submit that shallow piece anywhere. [editline]09:52PM[/editline] And that "lol elts see u do it bettur then fag noob lol" attitute belongs to deviantart. [editline]09:53PM[/editline] [QUOTE=kabookie;24463334]Actually, if you want to be critical, it was an image that was vectorized, by hand, then painted over, then smudged together to blend a bit. Seems far from filter rape to me. Also, that's just my style dude, I like the incomplete abstract look, all my work shows it, I don't appreciate the harsh brand of "filter rape" you accused me of. [IMG]http://filesmelt.com/dl/the_mind_of_a_woman_vectorized.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] hmm poster edges, plastic warp, some custom ass brushes and monochrome all mixed up with bad composition real art gallery material you got there.
Also, in related news, style is overrated. If things are crap, it's not automatically style. Style just develops when you work. What you mean is methodology. [editline]07:04PM[/editline] That was meant for Kabookie btw [editline]07:11PM[/editline] Ok contribution! [URL="http://www.truploader.com/view/700162"] http://www.truploader.com/view/700162[/URL] Yeah uh, I just did that for fun, someone in the "if you had 2 weeks to live what would you do thread" had that idea. Any opinions and CC will be appreciated, but I did this pretty quickly and just for fun, so yeh.

did some progress. STarting with lineart. [IMG]http://fc02.deviantart.net/fs71/i/2010/243/e/a/tokyo_syndrome_wip1_by_infernomonster-d2xoh96.jpg[/IMG]
It's all tilted to the right, you can't tell if the guy on the right is walking towards you or away from you. Can't say it's too interesting, it looks as if it lacks detail even though it does not. The atmosphere isn't presented good enough to be felt.
It's going to be watercolour and I haven't really started adding all the wires and laterns and shit. as I mentioned before it's going to be tad tilted to see wether it fucks with you or not.

that shit is going to be filled to bink anyway. They are used just to mark down where more confirmed fucknuts are standing. I just haven't figured out what to place in foreground yet.
