Um, that makes it sound a little better. And, actually, I had looked at this site for some time, and thats exactly the kind of thing you guys say. I guess I wasn't ready for it. Especially since other people tell you you're good, and then I get this online. Guess I just don't know how to respond to real critiques. (Or know how to respond to this in general.)
(It's also stuff like in the above post that lets me know I'm really not that good.)
(Maybe I'm just dissilusional, and shut up until I have something real to post.)
Hey man, first of all, welcome to the forums. I know exactly where you're coming from, hearing a harsh critique is hard, no fun, and it can be down right discouraging. But, it's also there to help you. It's not there to simply say "you're horrible, don't ever post again" people here post critique to try and help you advance as an artist. Believe me, while the critique may seem harsh, it's only being written to help you. That being said, I look forward to seeing you progress and develope over the time that you're here on the forums. Please continue posting your work, and give it some time. You'll see your work improving drastically.
Argyle, That nostalgia piece is epic.
