When I browse through my older artwork, I get an uncontrollable desire to edit all the glaring errors that are now so clear to me.

It's only annoying when it's done right away several times.  For example an artist uploads an image and then an hour later updates it, and then an hour later updates it, and then the next day tweaks something else and updates it.  It can get annoying having to clear the submission from my inbox five or six times, especially if it's an image that isn't my cup of tea.

But doing it long after it's been uploaded and only after all of the fixes are made is much better and also helps to really show what a difference all the changes can make versus replacing the original.

Yeah the last thing I want to do is spam people with crap :C

I must admit I didn't really like the original version of this picture. Something about it made it feel off, but i couldn't lay my finger on it. I didn't really appreciate the contents of the image until this version came along. It's all in the details like the lighting and the image blur, they make all the difference.

Personally, I love it when artists update their stuff because it shows they're dedicated. Having both images to compare could give other artists pointers on how they could improve. And besides, who wouldn't want to see an enhanced version of some of their favorite artwork?

Yeah looking at the old one is almost painful for me now. Though I imagine the same will happen to me with this picture in time. X_X!

I really love it when you update older pictures like this.  It really showcases what you've learned and maybe a little bit of how you perceive things now vs then.  The changes here are too numerous to honestly call it a fix, this is a brand new submission as far as I'm concerned...  As is the case with the majority of pictures you revisit.

As for this picture:  HOLY HELL THOSE EYES AND THAT SMILE!  *Melts*

I am glad some of you enjoy these, then <3 thanks

Those who truly appreciate art and admire your talent, or those that covet your friendship would likely show interest and offer encouragement when reviewing and improving older submissions.  I fail to see reason for watchers (who should feel privilaged, in the first place), to complain.

On a more lighthearted note, however, there is a mentionable difference.  Your use of color to imply lighting has improved greatly ^.^
Lando

thank you! :3 I really should pay attention to light direction and all that stuff more, though. Such a hassle!

You're welcome.  I just hope that you don't let people get you down.

Editing old pics is a cool idea because why not make them look better when you learned something new.

Writers go back and rewrite their old stories all the time to make them
better and more coherent so I think it's awesome when artists do the same.
And you can learn  even more when you compare what the DID to what the
FIXED. Keep it up Lando.
Also it's neat when you do it in stream so we can SEE you working on the "repair"
and understand what you're doing to fix it.

Well personally I like seeing fixed/updated versions of pics.The only time I have a problem with fixed/updated versions of pics is when the artist has just posted the pic and updates it like an hour or two later.So I'd really like to see how you update your old pics.

But personally I think it'd be nice to post the undated version along side the old version so everyone can see what the old one looks like compared to the fixed/updated one.

Not a bother. Always nice to see the improvements that a good artist can do to their older pieces. :D

Fantastic work and the editing/coloring is just awe!

You know, I already feel bad for having three variants of an animation on my gallery that were based on just one image, but the thing is, I don't want anyone to miss out who actually -wants-'em, and some do. And then again, I want them to be stored permanently, in a safe place, and easy to show them around. I asked people the same question and everyone seemed fine with edits. Still I try to keep it limited. Not every variant is online. If I find more though, I will add them. Of course I will. You should, too, if you change things, proudly show your stuff around.

Well, that's not just a simple edit. The whole head moves ^^

I love the editing, but there's no need to edit.  Don't go mental over it.

Do whatever makes you happy. The people who want to complain should STFU and be grateful you're sharing your immense talent with us in the first place!

Honestly I say do whatever you feel like doing ...


Although, since you moved his foot out away from the Sushi between his legs you now have a weird looking *at least to me* edge on it that looks like it should have more flesh beneath the skin than is there ... if that makes any kind of sense at all.

Oh and the lighting, but someone already mentioned that
Lando
11 years, 3 months ago
Hm, maybe I'll tweak it a bit

Side-by-sides are great. Especially either uploaded in the same folder, or splitscreen.

I don't like the extra chubby cheeks for Alvin.  At least on that note, I like the older one, but I will say that the quality of the pic is better.

same. but at least it's still good.
Lando
11 years, 3 months ago
you'd be surprised how chubby his cheeks are in the official media!

only annoying when they're not naked.

I personally like everything about the newer version except the edges of the cheeks. As far as doing it often, can't go wrong with alternating between a new piece and an edit of an old piece.

you tweaked the fur texture and angle of the head quite a bit :o
Aogami

Love the retexturing of the fish skin, and the way you blurred some of the edges to imitate the focal depth of a camera. Even more awesome than before
Lando
11 years, 3 months ago
actually I didn't touch the fist at all x3 that's just some overall sharpening

Well, I don´t see any errors, only some (fitting) changes. I don´t have a problem with it, so go ahead, for me it´s a chance to see some of your older stuff I didn´t know before. :-)

It isn't bothersome in any way, Lando. I think it shows that you care about your art, and there is nothing wrong with that, as you are the artist. :)

I think this is the reason I'm watching you. The detail! And no I really think it makes a difference. Serious. Maybe some people just can't appreciate things the right way. But I think it's worth the effort.
