I'm sooooo freaking frustrated..............:):):):) eveytime I get scouted I then get unscouted. I'm beginning think this is happening because I'm actually really bad at art. People seem to sugar coat things when I ask for their options. Anyways, I hope you enjoy the artwork below and plz be honest if you crit.

Well.. You are either scouting bad artists or either this is stolen artwork. Its not my style, but it is well made.

The only thing I see bad hear is not putting this artwork in your old thread.
But seriously, this stuff is really good. I'd scout you (if i was scouted mind you), but I've been having issues myself. Now, if you're not receiving a PM when you become unscouted, then it's not your fault. That would mean someone higher up the scouting tree has been pruned.

Either you're looking for attention or your absolutely insane !!

That art is freaking awesome, I love the second one, the first one seems to have too many lines for me. But still, its really good so its definitely not your art that's the problem !

No, you are a great artist.

The problem with the art portal is that it's like a tree, if a main branch is cut off, all the branches connected to it fall too. Some one you scout, or some one who scouted you, or scouted that person etc, could break the rules, causing all those people to get unscouted.

We've also had a few hiccups with major unscouting and a reset of the portal. So a lot of people have lost art persiflages several times, don't get discouraged.

You didn't do anything wrong, you were one of my scouts ;)

The reason you were unscouted is because recently the art portal got reset so it could be rebuilt properly after the little fiasco that Ego getting his account hacked caused.

And the first piece you posted is really cool, not too crazy about the second one though. Can't quite put my finger on it.

Well, I haven't scouted anyone I don't know where to find the page with the unscouted users. and I did do the artwork, maybe someone think I took it because I do post on allot of other sites and they don't know I'm the same person. My other accounts, My DA My articain My FA

Oh.. Don't get me wrong. I was not accusing you of stealing artwork. I was trying to say that the art looked so good that it would have be stolen to get you unscouted. It was just put very poorly.. :S

gag... people that piss, moan and bawww about not being scouted/unscouted in the forums should automatically be banned from the art portal/being scouted for at least a month. Not instantly scouted! What utter bullshit!

Good thing I'm not an art portal mod anymore, huh?

Yeah, ConceptArt is filled with people who do this stuff for a living. But you're on your way.

Put it this way. The individual parts look great... but the overall picture gets confusing. May i suggest reading up on Composition? And... I always love linking back to this tutorial. Don't know why.

hah, of course, i gotta take my own advice one of these days....

my art.,any requests?Art tech support!
pm me if i should start a webcomic. 10+ people think so!

Will you scout me cause I wants to be scouted and I think I deserve it because I like art and being scouted would make me stop crying. :(

Also I think the stained glass window feel of the art. The second one is a little off... not to sure how, but it is missing something.

NO YOU!!! >:(

Everyone else has to abide by the RULES and sit and wait. Why should this person be any different... unless she showed you bobs or gave you a bj... is that what happened Ben?

Ok, I've feel like I can't even talk about how I can't even share my feelings, because of people like nae. If Would have stayed silent I won't have been able to share my work with others in the art portal and contrite to the community. To me that is all that matters, having others enjoy my hard work and effort. I'm starting to think that I should have not said anything.

or maybe read the rules?
or used the search bar to see if there were others with the same issues?
or posted the work in your original thread and stated your issues then?

lol the options are endless.

either way, you got your answer, you got your scout, and theres no need for multiple art threads , unless you are posting a progress thread, your art can all fall on the same thread.

so yah locked.
