Was it from a photo?
There are some blurry things in there (under his neck) that are kind of hard to make out.
maybe if his middle finger there wasnt as blurry...
i like it other wise. I havent seen too much of dani filth...i did watch the cradle of filth video back in january, but i have never been a diehard fan. is he the singer? oh well. nice work |

I think the white of his eye is a little too white. Also there should be some fading to darkness on the right side of his face(thats our right). The edge will be sharper in certain areas than others.
I think the hair could be fixed by not painting it one strand at a time but in blocks of light and dark color.
Also the stuff going on in the background looks a little strange to me and I think takes away from the piece.
thats all

Micke is with me on this one (I hope)
FALK
...Can you do any sort of other art (and I use the term loosely) than metalheads and wannabe-goths? *sigh* ... When will it end... fuck...Just shoot me now.

Stiff upper lip. Remember, create what you want to, and HOW you want to, not how somebody says it should be.

Shit...At least use proper capitalization and punctuation... Damn...
"lose" not "loose" -- My time is far from being "loose".
I restrained myself on the butchering of Brandon Lee's character (albeit the disgustingly pop-culture substitute for retributional hero that it is) by you, but this is just wack...
Work on your focus. Your images are blurry, malformed, and unoriginal. Proper grammar and spelling can come second, because as much as I hate to admit it, I actually understand you. *shudder*

God, chill Visigothan. He's not a pro, he just got his freaking tablet a few days ago. And even before that, he was somewhat new to digital art. Not everyone creates perfect art right away. He's doing his best and trying to get feedback on what he has so far, so that in the future his pictures won't be so "blurry, malformed, and unoriginal", as you so tactfully and eloquently put it.
And not everyone's native language is English. If you can understand what he's saying, which you admit you can, then there's no need to complain about his spelling and grammar. |

*sigh* -- Incase you didn't realize, Tinsuch, this set of posts was intended to invoke an intelligent reaction out of an individual that had already deemed [his/her/itself] worthless by slapping really bad white-trash "goth" culture icons all over it's art. I've failed miserably in attempting to invoke any sort of stimulating and sarcastic conversation from it. =P Oh well...Time to find more people that will haplessly fall into the clutches of http://www.cattygoths.com ... There's some real winners in there...Just like JeanJean...Go read "This Week"'s check's. =P

hm..Visi, I understand what you're saying and generally agree with your comments about certain "goth's," but to avoid the possible rant/arguement; what exactly do you consider as goth?
Jean...as others have said - it is blurry. It also looks like someone took a spoon to his right cheek. |

I don't. =P Nor do I presume to be one. =P But people like this [in reference to the individuals reviewed by cattygoths.com] give such a wonderful method of self expression a disgustingly bad name. =P

I used to be a Goth until I realised I was too fat and too cheerful . . . what is a goth nowadays anyway? (I was into the scene in the eighties when it was Sisters of Mercy, Bauhaus, The Damned etc etc)
Jean Jean - like most people I think that this piece would have looked better without so much use of the blur tool, and the bottom of his face looks a bit wonky. (Unless he looks like that in real life of course!)Keep practicing matey!!
I have to say that I'm still a beginner and I hardly ever post my fledgling images for fear of a similar reception found in this thread.

Visigothan: I'm not sure what you're getting at... The references to Cattygoths and JeanJean and whatnot didn't make sense to me... Oh well. Their bashing of "Natasha Dark Belafonte" was funny as hell anyway. Hahahahahaha.... Thanks for that link, man.
Am I the only one who thinks JeanJean's pic is good? It may be a bit blurry in spots, but I think overall it looks very realistic... |
