To indicate you've read this post, write an emoji on your post. What is a critique? cri·tique kriˈtēk/Submit noun 1. a detailed analysis and assessment of something, especially a literary, philosophical, or political theory. synonyms: analysis, evaluation, assessment, criticism, review, study, commentary, exposition, exegesis "a critique of North American culture" verb 1. evaluate (a theory or practice) in a detailed and analytical way. "the authors critique the methods and practices used in the research" A critique is a constructive opinion given to the artist of their artwork. These are examples of a bad critique: - "omg so good! i wish i could draw like that" - "idk i think the leg is weird" - "lol it sucks. idk whats wrong with it though" On the other hand, these are examples of a good critique: - "this looks really good! next time though, try and get the perspective figured out before you sketch the person. it should make your drawing pop a bit more" - "the proportions are a little bit off, here and here. you could also work a bit on the anatomy. I really like the pose though, it's really dynamic!" A good formula for a good critique would be saying a good thing about the art, and then what needs to be fixed. Or, vice-versa. When giving a critique, you don't necessarily need to be an extra-elite artist or anything. In fact, sometimes it's actually better to ask someone who is not an artist to point out things that may look a bit off in your artwork. Very often when you're working on something you get used to what's in front of you; an untrained eye could really come in handy. Unless you're asking my mom, who says stuff like "omg that's so pretty! But what is it?" and I swear it makes me cringe When asking for a critique, don't just ask "pls critique" so generally. I mean, sometimes we can see that something is wrong but you can't quite pinpoint what; those are usually exceptions to the rule. But most of the times, you can SEE that there's something that you're not quite happy with, but you can't exactly see WHAT is wrong with it. So, when asking for someone's opinion, say something along the lines of "can anyone help me figure out what's wrong with the leg?" or, "what do you guys think i should add in the background?" Giving critiques can be rather easy. What's painful and hurts is to RECEIVE a critique from someone. It hurts our pride. In the other hand, though, if a constructive critique is given out nicely and consistently, the artist can improve with it. One single stroke may change a lot a drawing, every artist knows that; but sometimes, when you look at your drawing and you say "there's something wrong here", you may not be able to find that little mistake by yourself. Other people might. And, by actually listening to other's people's opinions, you will be allowed to learn to see with other people's eyes. People who don't accept critiques always make up excuses right after receiving one. The most common ones are "I made it with a mouse, that's why it's not that good" or "I know the legs are obnoxiously long. That's my style. I'm not going to change it.". So don't take it personally and get defensive about your own artwork. Unless the person is doing it on purpose to piss you off, which is highly unlikely, we're all here to HELP YOU OUT. You asked for opinions, we gave opinions. If you are one of those people, by any chance, then please don't ask for a critique. The main rule in art is, "kill your babies". I'm serious. Don't get attached to something in your artwork, because there's a 90% chance it's going to change. And if you have to erase it, or if you have to redraw it from scratch, there's a 95% chance you'll do it even better than before. Some of you might have heard of a technique called "redline". The redline is something that artists usually do in other people's art pieces, to help them improve (specially with anatomy). It's more of an informal sketch, pointing out the flaws of the drawing, and it's done in red. If you want, request a redline from someone you know is good at said thing. Sure, we might make some mistakes as well, but no one is perfect. Please understand that the purpose of this Clan is NOT to inflate your ego. Sure, you may show off a little bit, by posting your art. Every artist wants to show off their drawings, me included. How would we get noticed by our art if we didn't? But spamming the thread with different drawings all the goddamn time, being like "How do you guys like it?" is not going to work for you. That is what won't be happening here, so please refrain from doing it so and save your time. Both yours, and mine. SO BE OPEN TO CRITIQUES. Oh, and no need to write the emoji. You can just dance the hula while hopping on one foot, and post a picture upside down. No, I'm kidding. If you haven't read the post, it's your problem. 3 strikes and you're out of the Clan. :'D [Read more] |

~Welcome to New Canvas~ Our little Mascot, Raposa, says hi. Before you post in this thread: I really don't want to be mean to other people, so please don't think I'm doing this because I want to. I want to keep this thread spam-free, and this IS still a Clan. So please, if you're NOT in the Clan, DON'T POST. If you don't wanna join the Clan but want to ask for improvement or critique on one of your pieces, you can always PalPad me or one of the other more experienced artists. Feel free, though, to join us whenever. It's easy, simple and there's always someone ready to assist you if needed. Question of the day What inspires you to do art? Introduction Hello and welcome! As some may recognize the name, this Clan was originally created by me back in PF. It used to be the second biggest clan on site, with over 200 members and 17k posts. ♥ This will be a place for you to post your art, if you'd like, and get critiques on it. You may also talk about other people's arts if you'd like: favourite manga authors, some kind of painter you like the most... Anything that helps, really! Anyone can join, from beginners to advanced artists. Be aware, though, that if you just want to post your art to show off or get comments like "ermahgerd so good u da bestest", this is not the place for you. Before asking/giving critiques, please read this post. Rules All PH Rules apply. There's no password, leave it blank. Please keep this thread PG-13. If you want critique on a PG-18+ piece, PM IT TO ME OR PALPAD ME. If you change your username, please let me know somehow (PalPad/post in the thread) When posting a piece of art in the thread, please use URL tags. Not SPOILER, URL. When pictures are big they take up space in posts and, even though under Spoiler tags, they may lag someone else's computer (or suck up someone's mobile data). Let's keep this thread neat, clean and lag-free, shall we? Do not advertise in this thread. That includes art shops, trade threads and other clans. Posts that are gibberish, off-topic or begging, or have low or no content are considered spam. Please ensure that your posts are on topic and contain an appropriate amount of discussable content. If you'd like to talk to someone in particular, that's what PMs and PalPads are for. Having said that, please also try to give a critique on the last piece before your post. And by critique, I don't mean "o it looks gud derp now critique mine pls"; I mean something consistent, even if it's to point out a minor mistake on the side of the drawing. People are here mostly to improve, so let's assist whoever is interested. Pleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease stay on topic. Please. Please. ....Please. Please post your own work. Claiming another person's work as your own or posting artwork that has been copied or traced from other people's artwork, or images created using other people's artwork without permission and credit is considered art theft. Art theft should be reported with a link to the original work. TRACING (or, how many people seem to call, it, pixel-over) is ALSO considered art theft in lots of places, including PH; so please refrain from posting those. The second rule is a lie, write an animal with the first letter of your username to indicate you've read the rules. Please don't ask for critiques if you're not in the Clan. I don't wanna be mean or anything, I just like to keep an eye on every member and to be able to reprehend people when it's needed. This is a Clan. So, if you'd like to ask for our opinions, please join the Clan first. It's fast and simple, and you don't even need to be subscribed to the thread if you don't want to; all you have to do is follow the rules. Simple questions, though, such as doubts about tablets and help with programs, are allowed. Form [center][b]Plz say my artz is pretty[/b]
Preferred nickname (optional): Art gallery (dA, art dump, etc): Password: [/center] Members You might also want to check - Thinking about creating a Discord group for the Clan. More updates on this later. - We have a small room in Google hangouts to just hang out, draw and be productive. Feel free to join. ♥ There's all kinds of tools (text chat, voice chat, webcam, disable everything, etc etc) so if you want you could just sit there and listen, watch and learn. :3 Keep an eye on the thread if you're interested! - If you have any useful links or articles you think are useful, don't be shy and send them to me. If the material really is good, I'll add it to our library. - If you're interested, check also my Improvement Challenge. Link down here in my sig ♥  [Read more] |

Shiny users know that when they hunt an event pokemon, the rest of the eggs will go to waste. Hell, I'm hunting Unown M right now. That's a 1/28 chance that I'll get the right letter in the Daycare. Those eggs are left in the Tall Grass for other hunters though, or even people who are just looking to fill up their dex. It's not like they disappear forever. Having a second shiny radar, like people previously said, is just going to make this game pretty unfair for non-premium users because it WILL be easy to get ahold of shinies. And it's like Navuso said - say you're hunting Space Spinda, you get to hatch 2-5 eggs every day or something. Meanwhile, the Spinda eggs come in a larger number; by the time you get a shiny Space Spinda, you might have 5 shiny Spinda you can trade with other users. [Read more] |
