As good an artist Rude is , he's always more concerned with showing you just that, that he can draw well, so i really rarely thinks in story telling , and that should always be a comic book artist first concern. Stuff like all those back grounds where he just "attached" ruins and sculptures here and there, well drawn but with no logic of juxtaposition are justifiably criticized by Toth.

He seems to use it as a general critique, but I don't quite follow. It seems like he's saying that the scenery doesn't represent N. Africa, but he also uses it for what appears to be a photo-reffed helicopter.

I may be a bit bland, but for me, constructive criticism should be accompanied by things well done (except when it comes to work as much as any sincere compliment.) Who says, goes, found most of them much thought. Disney Leaves were also very interesting, but I do not consciously do things they describe. For example, to extract heat and morality miniature balloons looks like it could result in characters that seem tacked on or discomfort. Time and practice, but then, we also time and practice that will determine the unbalanced composition of all work orders (eg characters - balloons - or any other configuration).Magento Developerhttp://www.hitechito.com/hire-developers/hire-ecommerce-developer/hire-magento-developer.phpnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23438334.post-85146480624521209972013-02-12T12:39:04.580-08:002013-02-12T12:39:04.580-08:00In college I had a "curmudgeonly" teache...In college I had a "curmudgeonly" teacher whose blunt critiques upset a lot of students, including me. I realize now, though, that he was the best teacher there. He was blunt *because he cared*, not because he wanted to hurt anyone's feelings. I wish I had checked my ego and really listened to and applied his suggestions, instead of getting defensive and dismissing what he had to say. <br /><br />Which is why I don't think Toth was being a jerk in his letter to Steve Rude. He was just being honest -- again, because he really cared and wanted to help him. Why else would he take the time to write such a long letter? And note that he begins by saying "You're too good to be this bad . . . " So he wasn't out to crush anyone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23438334.post-21094398151498455732013-02-11T15:28:15.396-08:002013-02-11T15:28:15.396-08:00I love the one with the wooden characters.

He was of the opinion that people really don't want critiques so he set out to prove it with these comments. No holds barred. He was also, in a round-about way, trying to answer every problem he saw in comics with this critique.<br /><br />The value of it is clear, as it's been re-posted countless times. Toth's brilliance shines through and this critique may be his finest legacy to comics, but will comics listen?<br /><br />Typed 'anonymous' because I have less courage than Toth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23438334.post-78772511440603153512013-02-03T11:33:56.144-08:002013-02-03T11:33:56.144-08:00Toth doesn't do Rude too many favors with his ...Toth doesn't do Rude too many favors with his comments. Maybe I'm just a bit soft, but, for me, constructive criticism should be matched with assurance of things done right (Except when dealing with work so bad as to make any compliments disingenuous.) That being said, skimming through them I found most of them to be very thought out. The disney sheets were also quite interesting, though I find myself deliberately not doing some of the things outlined therein. For example, drawing an environment and balloons before the character in a thumbnail seems like it might lead to characters that seem tacked on or awkward. Time and practice will fix that, but then again I also think that time and practice will fix unbalanced compositions with any working order (ie, characters - balloons - environments, or any other configuration).Luca Careynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23438334.post-22706663776806937632013-02-03T06:33:57.051-08:002013-02-03T06:33:57.051-08:00I've seen the Disney ones at the top (some of ...I've seen the Disney ones at the top (some of my go-to reminders!) however the others I hadn't, so thanks for sharing them!
