I don't mind, so long as you link my dA page. It's in my signature.

@, here's your request. Hope it came out alright, I had a lot of trouble with the eyes, among other things.

I'm not taking anything here personal. I'm debating as you are. If you think otherwise, I'd suggest we move into a private discussion.

I know what you said and it still doesn't make it easier. Because even once you've done away with that bit of dirt, you still have the entire rest of the room, and that can be easily overwhelming. Does that mean the site is understaffed? Maybe, maybe not. That's up to them to determine. Just because you were able to take on that kind of workload and still moderate the forum, doesn't mean everyone else can and should. People handle stress and workload differently and it's unfair to expect everyone to be on your level, nor should it imply that they are incompetent as moderators. So what you're saying is that you were actively looking for dirt to throw in the face of the first staff member to respond? How is that any better? Constructive criticism offers advice on how to improve. All I've seen from you thusfar is passive-aggressive jabs aimed at painting the staff as a whole as a bunch of lazy, narcissistic god-complexes and that's neither a fair nor accurate depiction. Is the mod team perfect? Of course not. Could improvements be made? Definitely. But they're people, not some corrupt corporate machine. Why treat them like one?

@@Dsanders, got your request done. Hope you like it.

If bad posts are "literally everywhere", how does that make moderation easier? That's like saying cleaning the house is easier because dirt is "literally everywhere". Than that's your personal choice. Moderation isn't exactly a "job" either and apparently people need constant reminders that mods have lives too and aren't just machines dedicated to spending all of their free time digging through thousands of threads to find any thing out of line just to get screamed at and told that they're power-tripping egotistical tyrants. It's not exactly a good idea to use straw-man arguments to demonize someone you have a problem with if you'd like to be taken seriously. NewCalamity's profile is quite obviously meant to be read tongue-in-cheek.

@, sorry it took so long, but I've finally finished your request. You didn't really specify a pose or anything, so I drew a headshot. Hope you don't mind. I also feel it's another step back in my progress, so it's not that good, sorry. ;n;

I think that's doable. Added to the queue.

I'm afraid that's a bit beyond what I'm capable of doing at the moment. Sorry.

@@Inclement Blitz, I've finished your request. It's not my best work, unfortunately. Was practicing a different drawing process and some of the proportions are out of whack.

Hey there, Gauge! Unfortunately, I'm not yet confident enough in my abilities to draw a sweatshirt, so is there some other pose you'd like me to try?

Yeah, that's perfectly fine. Just make sure you put a reference here somewhere, whether by editing your previous post or making a new post.

@@Arcanel, I finished your request. Did some experimenting with shading, dunno if it really turned out all that great. Added you to the queue.

I'm really glad that you like my sketches enough to make a second request, but I can only allow one request per person. Sorry. Added to the queue!

@, here's your finished request. I've been experimenting with a new style as well as using Photoshop instead of SAI and I'm really liking the results thusfar.

Thank you! ^^ The eyelashes/brows clipping through the hair is more of a stylistic choice. I know there are those that don't like and I might experiment with not doing that. I'm not really good enough yet to be able to add the face wrinkles and lines that help define the expression otherwise.
