Sorry. Caught me off guard with that.
My feelings on this one are as follows:
I think it's a well executed design that was done by someone with obvious design talent. However, the design itself doesn't really speak to personally. That's just a matter of taste and I mean no disrespect what-so-ever. I wish you luck with this and your future work.
Thank you CM, I appreciate your honesty and clarity. I wish more people who don't like certain designs had the same ability to politely post their opinions in a way that isn't acerbic or insulting to so many people.
I do not mind if people don't like my art, or someone else's art. It is why there is so much art out there, so everyone can have something they like. But to simply insult art, or insult the people who like it just seems like impotent nerd rage... It is anger that the things you want aren't what everyone else seems to want. Trust me, I find myself suffering with it all the time. It happens, you move along.
Take this derby for example. There is a lot I love and want to wear, and a lot I like, but wouldn't necessarily wear. Plenty of art here is worthy of merit, in fact all of it is worthy and all of it has it's own fans. Everyone here worked very hard on their designs. Some of them aren't for me, but to blatantly just say it's scaffolding, or that people who enjoy are idiots is completely uncalled for...
I can appreciate anyone who comes in to any given entry to say they don't really like a piece. But there is a way to say you don't like a design without making those who do like it shudder and cringe, or make the artists feel like dirt.
Thanks for your comment again. I am trying new looks each week to see what kind of art people enjoy. That's all I can do. Some would say that's a bad thing, but truthfully, I like all types of art. I like to draw differently from day to day. I never know what I'll feel like doing

PS: Always a fan of your work, totally awesome.
