Hrm, I noticed alot of people love comments (who wouldn't, doh!). And so far, I receive a note to comment on he/her works... well not exactly comment. Maybe critique it in such a way about how to improve for the better.
Please take note I am not the almighty artist who is good in drawing and colouring everything. I am not good in certain areas and I'm sure in some of my works, you could tell my flaws.
But I am quite particular in the logical sense of anatomy. UNLESS your style is a style that defeats all sense of anatomy (and WHICH I will say it fits), I will not say anything about anatomy. I know a few people who enjoys drawing SDs (there are many forms of that) and horror styles which involves many shading and long lanky bodies and probably other styles. I will never EVER comment on the anatomy if any one of your works falls under that category. Especially if the characters are MONSTERS... yes they defeat the logical sense of anatomy. Lol.
But the angle... the way an arm bends, knee bends... toes curls and such... I might criticize

And I wouldn't mind you guys criticize on my works' poses and such, as I do admit... I do make mistakes on positioning (I do not have anyone around who is willing to pose the way I want them to) as currently I am venturing to more complicated poses and the ones I had never DARE tried before. I expect alot of 'there is something wrong with the anatomy, the arm looks broken blabla'. Thank you for telling me and reminding me so I will try not to make the same mistakes again.
Now that is anatomy.
Let's go to colouring.
I TELL YOU! Do you know HOW MANY STYLES are there?!! So the only thing I will comment about your colouring is probably the shading and the mood it sets.
And once again I admit... I'm still learning how to freaking set the mood with colours! >_<
I will NOT say anything if your work is an obvious vector art.
As much as I love to try and give you guys pageviews... please please goodness PLEASE check your main page to make sure your background and font colour doesn't MERGE! Don't make me highlight your page, I HATE IT. So if I happened upon your site >_> you WILL receive a note from me to change your font a shade lighter or darker if your main page looks like that.
It isn't for me ONLY but also for OTHERS who WILL venture to your site. Can't blind them with... black BG and 2 shades before blacks fonts, can we? I assure you, not only it soothes my eyes... it also pleases OTHER people's eyes when they come to have a look.
Who here once a proper comment from me. Not those "oh~~ this is nice! blablabla" NO! The in depth comments? Please TELL me, and I will make a point to do so. But if I can't find any fault... you will see "oh, this is nice blablabla!"
As I had made time to do so, please come and converse in many ways, whether on my main page, my journals and possibly have a nice comment... it would be nice for you to do that for me.
No I don't make a point that YOU MUST MAKE A COMMENT ON EVERYTHING.....
NO! Just drop a note... a 'heartfelt' meaningful comment or maybe announce your presence of sorts once a while would really make me happy... telling me that I aren't exactly alone...
I easily get depressed... No matter how LOUD I could be.

A pity I couldn't change my depressing mood that seems to be lingering me for almost a year...
For those who gets random comments from me, don't mind me. It is at my will that I want to give. But for those who want me to really look out and give advice to improve... please spare some time with me as I do with you. ^^ A note would be lovely ^^
See ya! BTW Bianca... Will be sending in my version of your... MiW thingie tonight ^^
EDIT: Please note, No I am NOT angry... I am NOT ranting. Just informing in case any of you encountered me suddenly mimamimamuuu your work in such a way you HATE me... I just want you guys to know what and how I tend to do things.
And YES, I am not only honest... But I am FREAKING FORKING FRANK! Remember the 3 Fs

Take care!

Thank you for the MiW again! You make a killer one!
I kind of get irked when people make stupid comments about my anatomy in my pictures. Like on my shower pic of Scott and Bo, someone once told me that Bo's neck was bent too far back. I can bend my neck that far back. I took anatomy classes just to know how those muscles stretched and worked. And their anatomy was sadly lacking in itself when I went to their gallery. So I was slightly irked.
Or the people who try and tell you how to draw your own character. I've had that happen, those sort of comments irk me.
And likewise, whenever I've tried to give advice when it was asked for, it would inevitably be shot down. So I personally prefer commenting on the parts I like about a drawing. It inspires less backlash that way, at least in my case.
