I got gimp, and I was just trying out all the filters and things. I rendered a lot too.

Oh, I should have considered that xD I was just trying them out recklessly. The shadow side should be on the right, because the sun is on the left.
It would have worked better if I didn't show a sun... Then it wouldn't matter.

Of course. It actually doesn't matter as I was aware you were just testing. Was just for the sake of another time, in case you were going to try again.

Sow how come look at it twice times didn't even see the flag. read that post and checked if there was a flag?

Lack of ADD? (Artist's attention disorder)
I still find it rather in-my-face when I look at it.

Nice. The ninja is pretty cool looking. It'd make a nice signature for threads. GIMP is great, because it's free.

That ninja is pretty good looking. I am not aware of GIMP (what is that photo editing software?) but pretty much the ninja uses pillow emboss if done in photoshop. What do you call that in GIMP?

The only bad part about the ninja is... you can see through his shoulder....

A bit immature of a thread if you ask me.

Constructive feedback is good.

Demanding to cite sources makes sense ONLY if it's to see what he has done. Weird the word 'cite your sources' was even used. This isn't college...it's the internet.

And lastly, just because someone didn't hand-draw everything doesn't mean it wasn't very difficult to edit or change the picture. I work with 2D art and I can't draw, but am able to create stunning works of art which take a lot of time and knowledge to create.

No, not really. We need all artists to credit the images, brushes and so on they use in their images (if they are not default) to show what he can't take credit for himself. We need to know where he got it.
Otherwise it will be the case of "But I edited, I own it" which is untrue.
All sources for stock images and so on should be linked to under our rules.

And I can't figure out how to edit my posts...any help?

You can't. I can delete it for you?

A bit immature of a thread if you ask me.

Wrong place if you are looking for professionals, really. Our target group is between 13 and 25 or something similar, and there are many teens (not that it say much about how mature it is).
Casual art more than anything else.

Cenere's addressed part of the issue I see here, I'll address the rest.

A fine way to introduce yourself to your potential clientele.

And lastly, just because someone didn't hand-draw everything doesn't mean it wasn't very difficult to edit or change the picture.


Sure, this is especially why we reserve the right to 'demand' sources and methods. We'd also like to know, and it's helpful, on the occasions that the poster actually did it themselves. Unfortunately, quite often it turned out to be a case of art theft, so there you go.

Finally that image looks like a 3D-rendered model. As far as I know, GIMP doesn't create 3D models, so unless you're showcasing something about GIMP's functions in something you did to said model (e.g. you used GIMP to create the texture maps perhaps?), you're off-topic. As you may now have guessed, this is an invitation for you to address my concerns.
