If this was in the quick-crit thread I'd agree... but I don't think anything should stop him from posting his work if he wants to, just as long as he makes it clear that he isn't looking for crit.

Fair enough.
We all know "Honest crit" is this forum's equivalent of "Get the fuck out of here bad kid."
It's like all those kids who scream "YOUR BR IS TERRIBLE" on XBox Live.
Since we're all being brutally honest. :D
Except it's not really, and you're just another person looking to demonize people.Quote:

ya. :(
Just sad to see people with potential get completely discouraged.
You know for a fact this isn't the first time this has happened when you've critted somebody, I'd suggest going about it some other way. If the people you crit keep getting discouraged, maybe it's not them who need to have an attitude change. Because realistically speaking, I don't know of a single school that would go about "honest crit" the way some people on these forums do. I doubt people going to school recieve crit that's remotely similar to what people on these forums recieve.
Have you been to an art college yet?
They're just like these forums :D
You realize school is a lot different then online forums, added there is the factor of someone being physically and mentally hurt.
Rate agree.Quote:

That said, teachers also give honest crit on your work, in the hopes you will take it to heart and improve.
I'm a whole lot nicer than art school. There's a reason my friend hung himself, and another had cardiac arrest after his hair fell out, and one of my instructors offered to fist fight me. I don't want to hear anyone's ignorant bullshit about art school or how I compare. You can fucking save it, mook. Failing to objectively look at their work and ask questions and incorporate crit are the reason they get discouraged.Quote:

Mainy because, I think teachers would point out the student did right, as WELL as the flaws, and not just the flaws all the time. Much less would I think a teacher would say something like "Wow, this is just fucking horrible. Fix it."Quote:
