Your my hero. You and kensei01.

I think I actually learnt how to draw better by enduring the 2 hours it took to all of read this.

Listen, I'm a real life friend of Wes. Yes he needs work and I will work with him on the points you all mentioned. I saw some honest points made and I will sit him down about it. As for you fifty-whatever. Despite the fact you ment it to be an insult I thought the drawing of lore was quite beautiful. I'm learning to draw myself. In fact I'm attending college for it. Originally I thought I was really good and my pride blinded me. Then I went to class. =( I soon discovered that the words I suck aren't even strong enough compared to what I've done. It will be an up hill battle for me and wes at least in my mind its like trying to run up hill with cement shoes. But I will talk to him. Thanks to those that were being honest and not just being flamers.

oh hey i know you from the comments on DA, welcome to newgrounds, i have a feeling youll fit right in

oooh.....nvm

Because you guys were totally being very mature about it

Just defending a friend. No hard feelings. I can kind of get over protective.

I'm learning that. I read everything people where writing about. You have to understand my point of view. I talk a friend who is unhappy into coming to DA only to have what I think are cyber stalkers coming over just to harrass him. I do apologize for my remark. I know it was uncalled for but so are some of the remarks he had to remove were also uncalled for. Honestly again I don't know too much about newgrounds other then the flash movies. Everything thing I've ever heard about the forums were negative. Even one guy here in my college cringed when I mentioned it. Those remarks were only proving every negative thing. Honestly can't anyone disprove them? Probably not. Anyways, I'm not staying. I only wanted to end this.

Nope. The Art forum taught me how to draw and I used to be pretty similar to this Wes guy. I still have miles to go but I'm a lot better than I used to be, all because of Newgrounds. So how about both you and your friend learn a little bit of fucking humility and start to accept that you aren't god's gift to man, okay?

Now for the part that is less angry:
Dude I know you like how you draw, but a lot of people don't. On deviantArt, they eat up photoshopped stock images, but here on Newgrounds (which I like to imagine is a community of serious artists) we hate them. If you want to continue making photoshopped images, mosey on over the deviantArt and get your ego stroked. If you want to learn to shade, pose and be taught about anatomy, sit the fuck down and listen.

Just my two cents.

Umm obviously you didn't read my original post. I know I suck.

Hey, I didn't even say you sucked, I said your friend has a lot to improve.

Also that's a terrible attitude to have towards your art. You should have pride in it, but not so much that you seem like a pompous douche.

lol I still have a long way too go. My details are way off, my style is cartoony, and hell don't get me going about trying cubism. Its like lookings at a magic eye picture without seeing the hidden 3d thing underneath. The point is I know I'm bad now, but I won't be forever. I only started resently and what I use to do makes stick figures look like works of art. Look at the wolf I posted. I can't even beginning to describe all I see wrong with it. Yet, I enjoy drawing reguardless.

lol I'm actually having fun. Despite the few others you all know I have issues with. I have to admit you last couple of people have disproved one things. Not everyone here is an ahole.

I still don't know if I want to stay here. I've already have three people that hate me in the first 3 hrs of joining. New record for me. Usually it takes 4

I know. I meant it to be kawaii desu! And it's quite strange that a 29 year old man acts like a 10 year old.

Not to be a backseat mod, but requesting lock.

who would they be, because i dont hate you and i doubt anyone else does, i just found it humorous is all, if your here to improve and are willing to listen then iv got no problem with you or anyone else thats the same

that said, the only reason im at the level im at today (which is still bad) is because of the constant tips and criticism on what to improve etc by the community, and many others will agree with me on that

this is not arguing :P

I don't mind critisim. If I was I would love sketching so much. I will let you all know a secret. I've only been stetching a few years. I made this one three years ago. I keep it as a reminder on how far I've already come and to keep going. I'm even reading a book called Drawing on the Right Side of Your Brain. So far its really good. First time I've actually read through and introduction. Anyone can improve if you listen to people.

You're alright in my books. But I don't see the point in posting your works on wesmeadow's thread.

Just responding to the one above me I'm done now.
