So /ic/ I drew my friends charecter (left) and I drew my own interpretation of her (right). Then I went about giving him some helpful criticism saying his design was unrealistic. After that he threw a temper tantrum and blocked me.
Do you think I was wrong and that I hurt his feelings or do you believe that his design is flawed?
As a general rule if people arent asking for criticism then dont expect them to react positively to it. Not every single artist out there cares about getting gud. Some are content with wallowing in their own shit for the rest of their lives and there is nothing you can do for them. Sure you can lead a horse to water but you cant make them drink.

Plus, some artists are so hard on themselves that hearing how shit they are from other people just pushes them over the edge. If someone is highly critical of their own work, then I think it's okay for them to only want to hear positive feedback.

This. Not everyone is trying to git gud. Even people talking about how they bought "Keys to Drawing" or reading up "How to Draw" by whoever, don't go on saying another book is better.
A better approach would have been, you showed your character, simply saying "I drew your character" and if they asked "How'd you do that?!" then there you go...

OP is always a massive faggot
>>2281859
Friend's drawing and design are better
You are a faggot
>>2281859
Both are amateurish and I feel you only made a lateral move with your version.
I'm not sure what your criticism was, but if it was founded on his design being unrealistic then maybe you need to reevaluate the goals set out when doing these designs. Obviously it isn't intended to be realistic, and critiquing a stylized image through the lens of realism would be a fallacy.
you sound like a shitty friend
>>2281859
There's no doubt which one I'd rather stick it in, but you are the douche in this case. Go apologize and think about what you did.
For those who keep saying I'm a shitty friend I've already apologized to him over a dozen times but he's just so stubborn and won't let go of it.

Then time is the only factor here. Just give the man(?) some space and don't pester him and if he is a true member of the male gender it will blow over in a week or two.
>>2281919
Thing is it's been over two months.
>>2281924
Well shit.
>>2281931
Yeah oh well :'(

>see this
Scrolling down to see FNaF and Undertale shit was the icing on top.
>>2281951
Lmao
i wish /ic/ was actually a board for discussing art, not just masturbating about illustration
>>2281961
Well illustration is a form of art, Anon.
>>2281924
Sounds like either:
A. You were barely friends and he decided he doesn't want to be friends with you after all.
B. You've upset him a lot in the past and this was the last straw.
Also, according to his tumblr, he's 15. So either you shouldn't be making friends with him anyway or you shouldn't be posting here.
i don't fucking care about either of you you're both terrible artists
>>2281924
Sounds like you guys aren't friends any more dude. Time to move on.
OP pissed off some tumblr girl he liked and then she dumped him. Now he's making shitty threads about it on /ic/ even after she blocked him for two months like a complete c/uckold.

>girl
Can you even read?
>>2281859
To be honest I like your friend's drawing better. You've just changed the proportions and made it less original & visually interesting imo.
>>2282020
Its obviously a girl. Stop trying to damage control OP. She doesnt care about you any more and the fact you are still stalking the tumblr even after 2 months is sad. Time to let it go.
