I am in a right state right now.

I'm completely disgusted with myself and my Manga art. I am my own wosrt critic. I have deleted everything from my Scraps and Gallery. I am going to re-do them and re-do them until I feel I am close to the Artists I hold in the Highest Regard.

I'm also deleting them from all other Galleries I have them in.

Maybe once I get much better with Photoshop and Paint Shop Pro, Backgrounds, layers, pencil shading and pencil crayon shading That look better than like I was doing it only in a passing thought. I'll repost them.

Seeing some of my works done by others makes me kick myself repeatedly... and saying why can't I get/do a background? why can't I create subtle and beautiful shading/colours? why can't I do layers?

Oh no! Why'd you do that? Not everyone is going to have the same style and skill, and some of those you're comparing yourself to have probably had a lot of art classes. There was nothing wrong with your pencil sketches. In fact, they were much better than a lot of fanart that is on here.

On top of that, if you deleted them all, you also deleted one that was on the ballot at the FA. I'm pretty certain that "Kagome is Mine" was on the ballot for battle scene. People think enough of your art to nominate it. There's a lot out there that never gets any kind of recognition.

I really wish you wouldn't be so hard on yourself. You don't know how many times I've nearly trashed an entire chapter, only to have it have more good responses than the ones I actually liked. You need to have a little more faith.

I don't have backgrounds, except for Kagome is MINE, and I felt they were "fuzzy" and "smeared/smudged".... Not at all.. What I feel is my best. I have these tools at my disposal and I can't even use them to the fullest. Heck, my comics I have done them some many times now it isn't funny. I guess I also feel pretty ashamed of my works.

I have several Piccies posted up so I have a goal to achieve.

Don't think I'll be getting any awards.. I really don't think I'm good enough for it. Getting nommed is more than I even expect.

No! I love your work!

Don't put yourself down. Beware of comparativitis...it's one of the nastiest soul poisons. Experiment and find out what works for YOU, not what everybody else does.

I only did a few that I'm proud of but they aren't enough for they need more.. and I'm ashamed of not being able to do it.

But you may be trying to do mediums that aren't your strength. Or you may need more technical training. Or different tools.

To be honest to your drive for art, you can't beat yourself up...but you should keep playing around with methods and mediums that make you happy. And don't get perfectionist.

I know if I got perfectionist, I wouldn't post half of my poems or most of my journal articles!

I'm already there at must be a Perfectionists. I think I am having problems with finding the right combination. I wish there was a Manga class near me where I could go.
