You are incredibly rude. I dont care that this reply is years too late. It is very insensible to offer criticism on someone else's art if THEY DO NOT ASK FOR IT. You come off as an asshole. I'm glad you stopped being active on here in 2008, or else you'd have tons more people reporting you for all the other rude comments you leave on others' art.
HOW CAN YOU BE 97 POUNDS? O___o; Do you not eat?! XD I'm your same height and I'm 115 pounds, and I ain't fat. XD Lulz.
She's cute. :3 I love your photoshop style- You make it look like it was colored with watercolors and a old-fashioned fountain pen! ^-^
Would you mind if I made a slef-insertion mew, Cherry-San? :D

Cherri-san, this piccy is beautiful, and as I've seen before you do have drawings that you say are just sketches that you don't really put much effort to and so on. I know you put lots of effort in drawings but just like you were saying people said there was a "behavior change"? for your Ichigo Crap picture, here we go again...
Mel-chan, I understand that giving constructive tips is good for the artist, but I think that perhaps Cherri-san didn't want criticism on a work that she said that she didn't really put her best into. She said it was a "gag character" so I'll take that as one of her sketches, but I can't assume so I don't really know..
Cherri-san wasn't "attacking your every word", but from what I see I think she just wanted a clearer explanation, but not for an art that she didn't necessarily put her best into. You said you were defending yourself but really there was nothing to defend yourself from, at least that's what I think anyway. It's great to see that you're giving constructive criticism but I think it was all misunderstood: maybe because it wasn't descriptive enough to Cherri-san? I don't know..
And Cherri-san I'm really sorry if I'm making any wrong assumptions about this piccy.. >.<
The piccy was beautifully done, even if you say it's a gag character. I don't think I'll ever get to be a good constructive critic because I hear from Panda-san(she's got lots of experience in that department as you know ^^) that you need to be REALLY clear with explanations and criticism even IF it makes you seem like a creep. It's true that sometimes you come on harsh, but you warned everyone about that and I accept it ^^ and that's just your personality. Maybe next time things will go better if you accept constructive criticism again ^^
I hope I really don't cause any trouble, but almost EVERYBODY has been talking about this so I came to see what it was really about. *bows to both of you* I really hope you two don't fight anymore >.< Take care! And again, nicely done Cherri-san with the piccy!
LULZ ADORABLE.
YOU + ME [characters] SHOULD LIKE, GO ON A SUPERVENTURE. [adventure + super]
the hips look a bit off, but not that noticeable. I've always liked how you draw legs. :D
and it's refresing to see a high skirt.
I didn't read your first comment, emptyhead, but from your other comments you're sounding rather anal. I don't want to get into this, but even if you have issues with the person, you don't have to tell it to their art! D:
it's bad when moderators have to delete things. ):
dont worry lauren, i think the pic looks adorable! X3 plus, we all improve over time, and some people on theO are older than you or me. its perfectly fine to give constructive critisism but not really in that way ^^; its kinda like telling a little 5 year old, "oh wait, you got the proportions wrong, u have to make the head this size, and u should study anatomy in some art books and make it look like that, and work more on the legs and hips, its not centered, i hope that helps" its good to learn it, but we can't improve in only like 1 day or so, so we artists should all keep in mind not to go too far about giving good critisism ^^ I hope u 2 can settle this down a bit. u r improving all the time lauren! u might even be better than me lol XD keep it up! *vote fav*
emptyhead,
stop trying to seem like a good moral person now,
because we all know that your frist comment was just spewed out because you dont like lauren.
its completly obvious.
no, i was simply defending myself is all, i would rather this not continue either, but i felt you misunderstood me.
now please, i would be more than happy to continue discussing ART with you if you would like to pm me.
now, i just feel that you cant handle a taste of your own medicine.

I see you would like to continue this?
Please contact a moderator if you feel this strongly about all this, I would rather not spend any more time pointlessly arguing with you.
Refrain from commenting anymore, or I will have to report this problem to a moderator. I tried to be polite with you, and I'd really appreciate doing to same, instead of sass talking me.
im sorry that you feel that way, i was trying to point out some things for you to perhaps use in future pictures, seeing as though allways, i see that same things in your pictures.
it was about time someone has adressed them.
i suggest you just take what people give you and use it for your own personal benifit rather than attacking my every word, like you allways do.
im sorry that we see different things in your picture, so, to my eye, i said what i feel needs improvement.
sometimes you need another set of eyes. but people rarely ever give you critisism, and i have noticed, that nothing is really ever changed that should be improved.
i NEVER once said i was perfect, i am far from so,
just next time, just get dont all cocky and full of pride, and try to think of what people are saying and WHY they are saying it.

Thankyou for explaining, I understand better now.
It seems as though you just wanted to point out the flaws in my drawing.
I'm not perfect, and neither is this drawing.
I know that.
But you don't have to hammer it in so much.
How would you like it if I go to some of your recent pictures and tell you EVERY little detail I don't find suitable, and and at that, I won't even point out the good points with it.
And yes, its a type of skirt I have, it clings to the hips (and a little higher) and flares out at the bottom.
Since you are so used to skirts being right at the waist, it looks oddly to you, but I can overlay my original sketch to show you, infact, the legs are not oddly shaped.
I don't think the legs are very pudgy at all, infact, they are actually quite skinny.
Maybe I like to draw girls who are healthy? :U
The head ratio is simple to explain, the rugular size of a child is around 4-5 heads(according to my book)
and fully grown adult is around 7 heads.
You see, she's not a child, but also not an adult. So shouldn't she be somewhere in between?
The wings are horrid, yes I know, but I added the wings after, and no, I'm not gonna go look up the anatomy of birds just for a gag-character.
I feel as though you are taking this picture way to seriously, as if I'm saying ' HOLY SHIT, LOOK ITS MYU BEST PITURE EVAAAAA!!!11one '
So I'm so sorry,that not everyone can draw as incredibly PERFECT as you can.
I'd also appreciate if you would restrain yourself from commenting on any of my artwork,posts,or anything else for that matter.
Just a little while ago, didn't you tell me to leave you alone? And I did so, please return the favor.
You are just another person that I don't want to deal with, respect that.
oy vey....
Now, i was mainly reffering to her legs and hips. i see nothing wrong with her head personally.
your figure has a head to body ratio of about 1:3.4
when, anime speaking should be about a 1:5
so, with that alone, it throws off the etire reat of the figure automatically.
and just the way you have the skirt draw gives the hips an odd shape.
now, im really not sure what you are trying to do with the skirt, if its supposed to be aroung her hips of just below her natural waistline, so ill go either way.
if you are trying to go for the hips, then she has no belly button, unless that little black dot is her belly button.. then it isnt centured.
her belly button should be on the line of movement, or, the 'center line'
now, if you are going for just below her natural waistline, then you drew hew torso too short for the character.
her shoulders are slightly too small and are not propotionate to the rest of the figure.
now, the wings should be a bit more defined rather than just lazily added. for example, look at a doves wings, study its anatomy.
figure out how the birds wings attach to its body and how the feathers follow.
then, adjust that anatomy to a humans. its easy really.
i did my best i suppose... if i wasnt clear enough just say so...

i could care less if you voted for my art or not, i draw because i love to and i love to express myself with a paper and pencil, not just purely because i want recognition for it.
thank you
0.o i don't understand...I think the proportions are perfect...that was just plain mean of you. i think you're right about yourself EMPTYHEAD *coughpunintendedcough* don't worry Cherryshock i think its so kawaii and you are one of the BEST artists on here and dont think you made any mistakes at all *votes*faves* and i think we now know who to NOT vote for. (PS- Wow you have such cool eyes...)
Sold my soul (Otaku Eternal) | Posted 11/11/07 | Reply
Well anyways, please point out to me the specific areas where the proportions are off, instead of leaving me here lingering?
If your refering to her large head, thats just my style, and she's not an 'adult' so her frame is that of a child, not 7 heads.
EH,
really, its not like you do any better,
at least lauren can actually draw a picture.
: )
well ANWAYS,
i lovee thisss, it makes me want to draw myself as a mew mew x3;
i love the coloring

You advice on my drawing of Marzipan was noted, but not particularly appreciated seeing as you don't practice what you preach. Try using those tips yourself before commenting next time.
*thanks to Lico*
