I've received today a dA critique in a picture I posted some time ago. I realized that member isn't a premium member. My question is:
Are no-premium users ABLE to post critiques now or this person's premium membership just expired today?
It would be awesome if no premium members also can post critiques now, seriously
CEL shading or CELL shading? Ok, I just must know it. Wikipedia says CEL shading but if you write CELL shading in google, you'll find mooooore results than if you write CEL shading. I know that no matter how many results you can find in internet, people could be wrong, but know I'm curious because I've always thought that it's CEL shading. Any idea, people?
Ermmm... so lame when I find some artists wanting their watchers thinking that they do the 100% of the work they post.
Be careful with them, people, and try not to be fooled so easy by them (no matter how many pageviews that artist has!). COLLABORATIONS are SO ok (I sometimes do collabs), but PLEASE,
CREDIT the other person if she/he makes you a significant part of the coloring or the lineart (≥20-30%), EVEN if the other one DOESN'T care if you want to credit her/him or not! I mean, just be a honest artist and don't fool your watchers pretending that you CAN really do what you are showing and EVEN writting sometimes in the artist's comments a random but lame excuse to distract your watchers like...
"this is a gift for the-person-who-really-colored-it" or whatever. If you want to make your watchers thinking that you can achieve such a result,
just work harder. There are ALWAYS people who can
recognize other people's styles/colorings for sure
Now I really feel so proud and glad that I don't need to do that with my own pictures to achieve my results, seriously X'D I mean, when I have a doubt about some difficult part to draw for me, at least I bother to get my own resources, like everybody does (even if some of them don't wanna admit it or give credit cuz they want you thinking that they are gods XD), because I'm not a "god" and I'll never be one, but be sure that you will NEVER see me posting some coloring/lineart that I never worked by myself, and if I do a collab or if other artist helps/makes >20-30% of the coloring/lineart, I'll always credit that artist for sure and never claim that picture as 100% mine to deceive you and make you think how wonderful "artist" I am.

I believe it is CEL shading. xD
It is CEL shading
And I agree with you about the 'giving others credit for what they do' thing. I always credit people in the desc, even if they say I don't "have to". I prefer to give credit where credit is due. There are some artists out there who really do make every part of the artwork themselves. I think it's weird that people would think less of an artist just because they don't make 100% of the artwork though. Collabs can be really cool.
