I for one think your stuff is fantastic. Sterling work! |

Effing amazing
Vexxxa is sooooo good. Love the little detail work on the stomach piece.
A bit late (as usual) but I still want to weigh in on the dA comment thing.
First thing: If you're going to let one, single, not-all-that-negative comment derail your growth as an artist, you're going to have to get off the internet or risk a serious nervous breakdown. You need a thick skin to be able to deflect and absorb the negative comments you'll receive. Someone might give a very blunt critique on your art and suggest several areas in which you could improve. Some people just might not find your style to be to their liking. And there will always be people who try to cut you down for their own sake, either using the Simon Cowell approach or the 'HAHA u suXX0Rz!!!111' method.
As for the particular comment itself, it's not something to sweat. True, sometimes older work is better than new (George Lucas comes to mind) but it's up to you to figure out what direction your growth as an artist is taking you. Some people get stuck in an artistic rut and churn out the same stuff over and over, usually because they've developed a fanbase that demand a constant flow of the same old stuff (R. A. Salvatore and his creation Drizz't are an example) and thus they just sit and stagnate. Trust me, you don't want to be one of those.
Sorry if this is sounding mean, preachy, etc., but seeing how everyone was so quick to shower you in comforting words I figured someone had to play the mean guy.
