I have to tell you the truth--I don't care what your explanations are, I thought your post was asking for a crit and that's what I gave you; and I gave it to you based on what I saw. If you didn't want one based on the 'old' version, post an update. Either that or be aware that others are just going to assume the same that I did--that you wanted an honest crit--and that they're going to post their opinion on it.
And crits don't necessarily mean that you have to go along with the advice; if you don't like it and the person was giving you their honest, non-malicious opinion, take it as a compliment that they actually took the time to give you constructive criticism to help you improve.
The in-progess shots are posted because people on my f-list ask for them and say they like seeing how a painting comes together.
This is my personal journal, not a public forum, not an art class. eel free to follow me on DevArt and post crits to things I post into my scraps there: that's what I use that site for.
A large number of them actually participate and comment here - I just haven't friended them back because there are only so many hours in the day. I could filter more, but I filter enough already.* It's an imperfect system.
* And I don't even use most of the filters. They're primarily for special projects with a few people. XD
I am on your f-list. Probably a 'was' now. I think it was when I was about to gain a four book deal from Tokyopop, but that was along time ago. But so that you know, real people that care would tell you what they see wrong on your piece, not tell you good job all the time and allow for you to learn nothing. However, if you're being so specific as to whom you'd like to hear from, and you suddenly got brash in reaction to what I wrote (which seems to be the only crit on the post), I certainly know where you stand ethically and maturely.
