In his poem Human Pride, Marx admits that his aim is not to improve the world, reform or revolutionize it, but simply to ruin it and enjoy it being ruined: With disdain I will throw my gauntlet full in the face of the world, And see the collapse of this pygmy giant whose fall will not stifle my ardor. Then will I wander godlike and victorious through the ruins of the world And, giving my words an active force, I will feel equal to the Creator. “Looking for consciousness in the brain is like looking in the radio for the announcer.” – Nasseim Haramein, Director of Research for the Resonance Project |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 75147420 United States 02/08/2023 10:55 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Yeah the nose is fucked, I'm actually working on that right now... seems to be the main critique... and rightfully so. I understand people wanting her nose "fixed" but it really doesn't. It's beautiful and I like that it's not the normal "beauty". This is how it works big baby. There is constructive criticism. Sometimes as an artist, you stare so long at a image, that your perception could be off. He needs advice. Nose mimicked an MMA fighter that just lost a fight but more importantly her opponent a swollen nose. That is what happened to Opies painting, but you know what, He FIXED IT. GOOD job opie, now fix her crooked ass smile. I paint so STFU. I UNDERSTOOD what was going on, calling me a "big baby". |

(OP) User ID: 78129966 United States 02/08/2023 12:25 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Thanks for the input. There's one in the picture-right eye but the way her eyelashes shadow her picture-left eyeball... there isn't much of one. But, that said, I could just add it to the left one anyways so they match. I'll keep it in mind. Last Edited by BFD on 02/08/2023 12:38 PM INFJ/Conservative Artist |

I know you say it's not a gift and I'm not discounting all your hard work to learn, but take my word for it. It's a gift! I can't do this and I only know a very few personally that can. Can't wait to see her finished, in all her glory! Thanks for another fun thread! |
