But back on topic, you will never get better if you don't practice and heed advice. Even when it sounds mean, it's still good to take criticism into account.

You do need to know when people be trollin' though - by that I mean people who say your works sucks just to hurt you.

I don't think people are being mean just to hurt him.

I know, it's just something for all artists to watch out for.

Practice more. As mentioned, draw more so you get the anatomy down, then draw draw draw.

Story: Don't think of everything at once. As a writer I usually scrap half of the total plans I make. Go with the flow, subtle details can mean a huge difference later.

As mentioned don't go out of your way for attention then when critiqied create drama. Silently accept critism even if "ur art blowz major dick" sometimes it be trolling, never know. Don't start drama if someone says you suck, just comes to bite you in the booty in the future.

If you want your artwork advertised, post it on DA for your followers. Chances are they will like it. To get your character around do art trades with friends, that will atleast not be negative feedback.

And just an fyi for stories it is generally poor form to have nothing but dialog, or in your case a comic. Image as if you just have them standing around and talking. Writing is like comics, execpt you have to write more than 1 line to accurately detail a part of the story.

alright thanks

Sorry i've been kinda snobby lately, yesterday I started to get frusterated at the fact I wasn't improving much, so I guess I just kinda got in that "ohyawellphukyou" attitude, and that's my bad there

I don't think everyone did. Anyways, now it's time for my short story.

Introduction

Everybody remembers them. How could they not? The Fair Folk. Lords and Ladies. Elves. They are not easy to forget, after all.

"Elves are wonderful. They provoke wonder.
Elves are magical. They cause magic.
Elves are fantastic. They create fantasies.
Elves are glamorous. They project glamour.
Elves are terrific. They beget terror."
Terry Pratchett

The curious thing about words is that meanings can twist just like a snake, and if you want to find snakes look for them behind words that have changed their meaning.

No-one ever said elves are nice.
Elves are bad.

if you're referring to my Intro then yeah I took heavy inspiration from Terry Pratchett but my story isn't like his, I'm just using that to start it off as it's really effective. If your're not talking about that then I dunno.

Oh okay.

It is just that, from the way you posted that intro, it looked like you were taking credit for writing it.

Yeaaaah, I'll edit the intro to include his credit. I'd been reading his book and thought it'd be a great intro, which is why I used it.
