~I HATE YAOI/YURI
~50% of DA's anime fanbase are yaoi fans. If you are part of the 50% who AREN'T, copy this into your signature.

A great collection. A question, if I may, how do people such as yourself find artists/decide what pieces to feature?

Thank you for faving this news.

About this feature: I'm always fascinated by b/w work. I've keeping a collection of it. And I just selected the pieces from my collection, and sometimes I browse through newest deviation on the first page if my collection runs out

About what pieces to feature: Well, it depends on many things. I don't deny I've the bias over the specific style of work, but I try to select them from the detail and quality of work. I don't feature doodle or sketch that the artist doesn't put the effort into it. Another things to consider are something like proportion, composition, technique, bla bla bla...

I think that would cover it all. If you have any questions, I'm willing to answer.

Thanks for getting back to me about how you select your images. I'm a relatively small-time anime artist [I get forced to do it in my spare time by the curse of 9-5] but one day I'd like to be able to "make it". I always see these "100 under 100" -type news articles and am always curious how they make their decisions. I know a lot of my work isn't up to the usual criteria, but it's kinda disheartening when my works seem to meet the selection criteria but never get featured.

Tough world to make it in I guess.

Thanks again for your help, I will continue trying to improve myself, and of course, any critiques you can offer would be appreciated.

Very welcome. Glad to know it's helpful to you.

And yes, it's kind of disheartening when you see the quality of featured work is the same, or lesser than yours. But don't be upset about it. dA is a very big place and it's impossible that everyone will get noticed.

Keep drawing and doing your best. It's not that tough but you have to try.

TANK YOU

Hola a todos mi nombre es LIliana Elizabeth, mis miagas del cole me llaman LILITH espero que nos podamos conocer a todos me gusta dibujar pero no soy muy buena espero ir mejorando de poco a poco y poder demostrar mi estilo.
Tengo 17 años

True enough, thanks for the encouragement ..
I tend to get depressed about my art rather easily, even though I've been drawing since I was a kid, and even graduated university as a graphic designer .. I love art, I love making art .. situations like my current work, where I'm hired as a designer then pigeon holed as a tech support agent really get to me

i like it very much. i think i have seen one of the pictures somewhere before.
