C+C And Style Discussion (Split from Nayr's Thread)

[RokuGurin]

When you post sprites and then get the response of, "Can you do something else?" that's not really critique.

Um, yes it is. Thinking critically, about his art skills, they are lacking, because he is not diversifying. That is legitimate critique.

That says nothing about the reason he posted: to present his Fire Emblem sprites. Just because he doesn't want to expand his reach just yet doesn't mean his art skills are lacking.

We are not forcing him to do anything. He chose to post here, on a site dedicated to giving art C+C. If he does not want legitimate, honest C+C then he should just not post his works here. That was his choice.

Well you guys seem to be giving him hell about him not wanting to change his style. "Do something else" isn't critique; it's a demand. Now actual critique would be: "Not bad. Try this and that. Maybe change this and that. And perhaps you might consider trying a different style sometime. Your Fire Emblem style is pretty good and I think you can do an even better job with others."

And haven't you considered that maybe Nayr is having fun with the FE style? Maybe that's why he doesn't want to switch styles yet?
