"What do you think? Is it good? BE HONEST."
"It looks good. You're perspective's off and the composition is weak, though."
"I wasn't TRYING to have good 'perspective' or 'composition', okay?"
"I noticed. Look, it's looks good [KINDLY LIE], you just need work on it some more."
"But I'm FINISHED."
"No, you're not. See how her forearms are half the length of her femur? You're drawing a real person. You need to fix that."
"THAT'S MY STYLE!"
"If it was deliberate, then yes. Unfortunately, you weren't distorting existing proportions; you were screwing them up, and you didn't even notice it until I pointed it out. Learn HOW TO DRAW IN THE FIRST PLACE, then worry about your goddamn style (which will have manifested by that point anyway [you tool])."
"Whatever. You just don't understand that I'm a genius and that I'm going to be famous as soon as I turn eighteen without any effort or growth at all SO THERE." |
