...Uhh, yes you did. 3 times.

maybe i wasent clear enought....... i was asking about some advices for the videos...

Holy shit don't ask for CnC and when people give good CnC say "I dont like you so the good and helpful criticism that you gave me is no longer valid". Or stay bad and un-original.

Style means nothing. when someone is good, their good, when they are better then you, they are better then you and you should fucking listen when they try to help YOU with no other intentions.


Mizu not Mazu.

Never asked for advice?

Well okay, I guess everyone can pack up and leave now.

Keep up the attitude and continue with the symbol drawing and copying, because people will clearly praise you for your apparent lack of creativity and drive to improve.

sure everyone can pack and leave if they want
It would be a pleasure, mizu its not that i dont like charry
2 i can misswrite something and it doesnt mean that i want to be mean.
3 i am copying anymore as you can see in the video today it is an handmade scythe.

Don't post things in the artwork section if you don't want criticism on it, it's that simple,
were you just seeking attention and praise for these? The weapons aren't origional, so as far as I'm concerned there was no skill involved in making them, and everything besides the weapons aren't worth commenting on
Edit: And even your origional weaopons aren't to a point of perfection where all we can say is "oh cool, that's great" and be done with it, that's not how this works

shouldn't this be in the tutorials section ?

you should add ore details, and don't post videos till you have something to teach ... !

anyways, I'll spam this video of mine .. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lo6f_rEui4M

Did you just post a video of yours in someone else's thread? wth?




and holyshit this forum can be so hostile for the most innocuous of reasons.
CnC and personal opinion:
1) I would try and avoid doing swords for the most part, simply because there are 1000's of them and people have stopped going ":O" and "ahhhhhh" over them. Try and spread out by doing lesser known or less "mainstream" weapons. I haven't seen a good flail/whip or a good Dadao or a good shuko in like forever.

2) You might want to start branching our from just single weapons. Part of what makes a lot of weapon designers' art look good is presentation. Try and present your artwork in a more professional manner. It'll help people from just going "lel noob joo suck" and be more pleasing to viewers in general. By doing not just single weapons but maybe themed weapons or even whole armor builds creating a presentable piece of concept art-esque thins will be much easier.

3) Make your art a bit more intricate, as you have already seen from the previous posters, people (though idk why) expect to see detailed, complex, and decorative stuff after watching a 6 minute video. Try researching decorative and ceremonial weapons from different areas/traditions/eras to get a feel for what patterns work for what weapons. Informing yourself about this stuff will give your work not only greater depth, but in the long run give you a good visual library to work from memory from!

4) Take a look at the competition, try and get a sense of at what level do people start to enjoy looking art speed art or weapon art or etc. While I personally don;t see the appeal of this art form, there is a significant amount of people on the forums who seem so absolutely love this stuff. Try and get a sense for what they want to see, hell invite them t give you requests as a means of providing entertainment videos for them to watch and to help you improve overall.

aaaaand
5) You might want to put pics of the finished work on this thread so that people know what to expect when clicking to watch the video. It'll help give your thread a bit more visual appeal as well as prevent people from being surprised when they see a "lack of detail" at the end of the video. PLus archiving stuff is generally a good direction to take on the internet and in the art world.

thank you plasmaghost for the tips i will surelly use them for my vids, i am on a big project right now so i will start to post every 2 days because im doing something in background :) have a nice day :)
