Let's face it bro, not many can handle your tactics of how you critique. I think she took it as a full on attack rather than you trying to be helpful. This is easily understandable because her faults in the drawing outweighed the praise. Even if you have to lie, ...sometimes you just have to so they don't get frustrated with trying to take you serious. Everyone likes their ass kissed. You can still critique, you just have to learn how to balance the two sides out. Like I said, lie if you have to. You'll find they'll take you more serious though if you at least liked something in the drawing ( ... )

Ditto. And the buildings look completely fake, and I think that's a result of the perspective. But that's just my uneducated view on the matter. ;-)

I think the best thing to do is to demonstrate how such things dull an image and how the implementation of certain techniques can only make an image stronger. This way people wont be able to argue against me, when there is stunningly REAL visual proof of my claims right in front of them.

I think it would probably help to point out a few of the good points, if only to help them realize it's not just an attack. And, of course, even that may not work. People like to say they accept criticism, but then whenever anything they don't like is said, they seem to just fall back on, "Well, it's my art. My art. Not yours."

But, really, how can you not love it? It has a lens flare. ^_^

Oh, crap, and she's crying... I barely noticed.

blah blah blah! fuck that. Ok, so you know that little boil thing I had in my armpit that I showed you?! It has grown to the size of a almond! Tonight after I got home from school I went to the mirror to give it a good squeezing to see if I could pop it, and BOOM! It went splodey all over my armpit! To visualy put it in perspective; It looked like peanutbutter in shag carpeting. Man that was satisfying. It's too bad you were not around to partake. Oh well, maybe next time.

Ahh, now I get your point. You do talk about the amount of reality in this piece. Well then I think I understand what you see as a problem. These buildings back there are NOT supposed to be realistic, they should be some form of slightely futuristic fantasy buildings. I see when you don't think many things fit in this image, but I see it that way, that we have very different wishes, imaginations and views on such things. I think we simply assume different things to be necessary in an image ( ... )
