I probably shouldn't say this, but, I have left comments on improving his work without further repercussions(watch, now I'll be a target)....;] After being in a personnel office and having to write assessment reviews on people I have learned a few key things, -before- pointing out what needs to be improved, -first- find something good to comment about, this keeps the person from going defensive on the outset, then gradually make known those areas/things that need improvement. You have to do this without saying the word 'you', like 'you should do this' or 'you need to do that' or 'your image/behavior should be'. Keep the comment specific to the area that needs improvement, 'the texture can be improved this way' or 'the model might benefit from a new texture to create interest' by doing this you don't make it personal, it's the image not the artist....and always kept your cool.... I guess it's not always 'what' you say but 'how' you say it. That said I'm waiting for BU to read my comments and then flame me...;P
