| I thought I'd chime in too: If it's a personal commission of my characters etc, I don't mind digital or traditional (in fact, I think digital coloring tend to be more attractive these days with all the filters and effects Photoshop offers). But if it... | |

Forum: Writing Posted: Jun 21, 2008 7:46 pm |

| I think the violence is fine, as for the mild sexual content. But I'm always a bit sensitive over whether yaoi/yuri should be labeled mature. I think a simple question would be: do we want 13 years olds to know all about yaoi/yuri etc? I dunno, ... | |

| This is an interesting thread, how did I miss it for the first time O.o It seems intuitive that a good book or a good movie is one that stands up to crits, that provokes crits, have depth etc... but, in truth, I think different stories appeal to diff... | |

| Nice forum. Did you set it up from scratch by yourself, or is it part of some existing site (like a Yahoo Group thing)? The overall design layout is quite good, but could use some more graphics etc to make the whole thing more interesting and attenti... | |

| Ah, the good days of creativeness (muse). My "muse" have been going on and off repeatedly recently like a chugging ol engine, unlike the long period of euphoric inspiration I could feel long ago. | |

| I dunno, personally, I think improvements are not so much on what other topic/medium we should go into (that can be done leisurely just for the fun of experimentation), but more on how to bring the current stuffs into a new level. I've visited your g... | |

| Didn't read the entire essay, but I really agree with where this is going- although personally I haven't seen a lot of people who are under tension while drawing: most art students in school are either uninterested in art whatsoever [which is common ... | |

| Hi Cruffin, I'm havin a bit of a lack-of-idea myself right now. I am quite keen on doing some art-nouveau-ish detailed pencil work now, so a trade would be good. PS. If you are happy to trade, can you send me a message to my inbox? I rarely check the... | |

| Thinking of it, my fantasy creatures are really just modified elf-like beings which I gave different names. They all have wings or fins, I think. One way to make them original and appealing/believable to the readers is to invent a strong background o... | |
