i wish i had a menthol..er ...i mean mentor even a snow lady shaped one.  glad i gave ya a giggle lol.

personally i wanna create the human race...apparently one man is capable of such a feat but he needs 4.36 billion women and a truck load of gatorade to achive it.....na i just want to create something thats a bit more realistic than some of the poser figures out there. i'm too old to take it up as a living but i think i'd have given a few a good run for their money had i started doing it 10 or 15 yrs ago lmao.  for me very little of what i se is art...for it to be my kind of art it has has to make me think or go mmmmmmmmm wow...or wtf......i can see what you say about perusing other galleries danno bit many aren't into that sort of thing and from my poetry writing days many couldn't give a toss as to if they improve or not. they're basically passing time doing something they enjoy.  the learning to be better part of it doesn't even cross their mind...of course some think they're the bee's knees lol but don't we all have dreams of grandur.

i guess i would have liked a few more comments and some feedback with what i i did but it's not something i'll lose sleep over.  maybe when i can do a really good model i'll throw it in cg and see what they think and hope for some constructive crit. till then i'll just try and improve on what i'm doing......whilst good crit always helps i find that i can be my own worst crit. i have a habit of tearing down what i do and giving things major edits. i think the model i finally became fairly happy with was my 4th or 5th remake......i know what faults she has but may have a missed a few...she has the ugliest feet you've ever seen lmao....and for me one of the sweetest faces.  not saying the mesh is the best though..i look at some of the stuff in cg and know what quality is when i do. i'm not there yet but i will be...i have every confidence in myself  i'm also delusional but thats anothe story.....

in truth all i've learned which is very little has been from tuts. i read em, i do em and i throw em away. i then try it on my own. i was so suprised at the standard i got in such a short time ...i'm not saying it's a good standard you hear but it's far better than i expected. i look at it and my ego strokes itself lmao....then i see the flaws...ego shrinks back .....then i think...you did okay ..and ego grows again all puffed up and pridefull...who gives a shit....i'm have ing fun ...as someone told me i must have...good advice i think...have fun, enjoy what you're doing, whether it's posing someything that looks like an outcast from folly bergere or whatever the second name is or a standalone work of art that inspires men to die...enjoying it or what you do is the one thing that will and does for me make it all worth while

 

and connie...don't try and fob me off with the snow woman rebuttle..i've made a few of those melt in my time lmao.
