RMA: RATE MY ART
This is my idea of a RMT styled art section where people can submit art and then get input on different aspects, similar to the RMT forum. An experienced artist could give suggestions and input as to how the artist can improve. It can also be where you can practice your technical eye and how you talk about art. You can learn a lot from what people have to say about different art works, so good critiques and rates will be added to the op.
You can submit pictures anytime, every week we'll choose 3 out of the ones people have submitted. After the pics are chosen there will be a period for discussion/critiques, and then there will either be open voting on best/most helpful critiques if there's enough participation, or Elcheeso and I will just choose the best ones. Submissions will be open indefinitely - just PM me. Depending on submissions and participation, discussion will probably happen for ~5 days, then we will vote for 2. For now I'm going to look at the amount of likes a critique gets and add good ones to the op.
Things to Consider when Rating/Critique
We will try to get to the meaning of these pics; feel free to discuss composition, technique, inspiration, appearance, etc. Don't be afraid of critiquing art that you consider to be excellent, or poor - there is always something we can learn from everyone's insights, whether it be praise, artistic suggestions, or in depth critical review.
Since general art thread comments are usually pats on the back and good jobs, this thread will be more devoted towards discussing meaningful insights of submitted pics. One liners and such will be deleted.
Anyway, have fun discussing these pictures, submissions are open now (PM Andrew ) only submit your own art that you want to be discussed in an open manner!
The community contributor badge can be given to anyone who provide good advice and solid critique to the submitted images and WIPs. If you feel you deserve a badge, feel free to contact Bummer or Zracknel with links to your posts or artwork, and we'll see if we've simply overlooked you or if there's still something preventing you from being badged.
Suggested questions and categories to consider:
1. Lines/Strokes : Consider the line art or strokes(if painting) Are they bold and powerful, or weak and hesitant? Are they smooth and perfected? Are there loose ends and imperfections?
2. Colors and Light Source: Consider the color palette. Does the artist use the official palette (if pokemon?) Are they saturated, desaturated, do they clash? Are the colors calming? Does the artist use interesting color combinations? Are the shadows uniform? Is the lighting warm or cold?
3. Form/Positioning/Pose : Is it natural? Are the proportions correct? Are parts accentuated? Is there depth?
4. Purpose/Message : Some artwork doesn't have a specific message, but if it does, what do you think it is? This category is a bit more hazy than the others
5. Suggestions/Tips/Tricks : What suggestions would you make to the artist for improvement?
