Looking through your art again and then reading your comment, I think I may have kind of grasped the problem you're having but I don't know if I can put it into words that make sense. You say you're having problems with your women looking masculine w...

This is a hard one because while there are 'tricks' artists use to make faces look more feminine, realistically, there's not much difference between male and female faces.  Not all guys look ultra masculine and not all girls have delicate doe-ey...

For me, it's almost entirely about the characters.  Heros need flaws and weaknesses otherwise they can't grow.  Minor characters shouldn't be overly developed.  Antagonists need to be creepy/evil enough to make my skin crawl or sy...

I generally dislike how rabid fans can become over the dumbest things.  I've seen Tolkien fans literally rip to shreds and flame an  otherwise perfectly fine illustration because the artist was uninformed enough to give Fingolfin blond...

Wish granted!!  You're transported to an alien world of bulbous, slimy aliens with tentacles and no appreciation for art of any kind.  And you are indeed the best artist in the world...  [Edited for lame typo] I wish people would quit ...

Wish granted.  Except he has rabis and bites you....   I wish I would get off my rear and start working on the ten or so paintings I have sitting around instead of being lazy and procrastinating.

I can definitely see both sides of the argument here.  Whether something is "5 star cuisine" or "McDonalds" is very much dependent on the mind and motive of the artist, both of which are sometimes difficult to determine unles...

Over romanticized descriptions can turn me off a story really quickly.  Guys with aqualine noses that smell of sandalwood and *anyone* with finely chisled features usually cause to me to start snickering softly.  Raven hair and emerald (or ...

Another thought I had:  Artwanted divides those categories into "Fantasy/mythical" and "Sci-fi/Fantasy" with the implication being that the "Fantasy/Mythical" is more for high fantasy and mythological stuff (like th...

You could always create a seperate "High Fantasy" or "Sword and Sorcery" gallery to differenciate from a more generalize fantasy.  Whenever there's a general "Fantasy" theme, I include far more than just the typical...

I usually just google what I happen to be looking for at the time.  Either that or I go through the house and find things in the house I can use for quick references.  A lot of times I'll go to DeviantArt and search through the work of othe...

I think it's a cool idea but...how exactly do we go about joining?  Or is there no official joining but more like just sort of saying "I'm in." Cause if so...I'm in. As far as names, "Crit Club" is pretty straight forward but...
