I use gradient all the time, just you can never see it well enough >

They're mainly for the background though. If you want to it to be more visible, try picking one color that's much darker than the other.

FinsGraphics << There's your example.

I'm so glad I'm not the only one that thinks FinsGraphics does that. He's way to overrated. I don't even think he's that good. Not to mention he uses the weirdest brush in his art.

So you could do better? I for one, think that fins a great artist for his age.

Likewise. He may not be the most detailed, or complex, or unique artist, but he is highly successful, so I guess it speaks for itself. I like his art.

Couldn't agree more with the overuse of gradient D: although in the use of metallic objects it can look good but when people use it primarily for shading it usually ruins a perfectly good drawing :c nice thread too with some useful tips :3

Am I the only who who hates when people say "See you do better!" when someone criticizes Art/TV/Film (It applies to a lot). The fact that you cannot make a better one does not mean you cannot give feedback, tell them what they are doing wrong. An Art critic probably can't paint better than most of the art he scrutinizes, but he can still say what they have painted right or done wrong. Of course when giving feedback don't be an ass to the creator. And having knowledge of the thing you are criticizing always does make for a better worded and more in depth review but the human eye is good at seeing bad things and good things. Just because he can't paint for his life doesn't mean he can't say someone else's painting is rubbish.

This my friend, is how criticism works. You don't have to be a superstar athlete to know that someone isn't playing football great, or an iron chef to tell someone that they make terrible food.

I'm not saying he's a bad artist, I'm just saying there's a couple of things about him that really frustrate me. I think I made a rant on this earlier: http://.com/RYRgQdjR
