When did it suddenly become cool to hate everything? It's a growing problem, especially in the entertainment world, and no one benefits from an increasingly hard to please, pessimistic audience.

Here's the thing about this one.
I inked it. As you can see. I actually thought it was good. So today when I went to take it out to finish it... I...I... OH GOD WHAT DID I DO??? I ...I just can't. I really, really really can't. I just...I JUST DON'T LIKE IT!! Nothing went right. At all. First off, this was actually drawn before the weekend of terror, and I drew it at home. Which called for me drawing something crappy. I really liked how THIS ([link]) one came out, so I thought, well why not try it again? So I whipped out the watercolour paper, and off I went. I needed some pose ideas, so I googled "love" in the image search and found inspiration from a pose by Courtney Love (yes, I know thats revolting, but I liked the pose.) So out came Melanies pose. Because lovey-dovey stuff makes me giggle inside and makes me all fluffy and floaty, I simply just had to do one of Mac and Melanie. And once I added Mac in there, EVERYTHING. WENT. DOWNHILL. AND I MEAN EVERYTHING. Okay, first off, he's just so awkwardly put in there that he looks like I just cut him out of another picture, and then just glued him in there. And because of how I drew him, Melanie was basically just taking over the whole picture, and I had to figure out a way to show his face in there, so I pretended his head was on Melanies or something. And...HIS EAR OH MY GOD! That actually happened when I inked the picture. Again, it looks like I was jumping around when inking this one or something. How did it end up like that??? (Had I finished this one, I more then likely would have fixed that up when I went over all the lines in the end.) NYARGFDDGFFFF!!!! WHY??? *slaps him over and over again* NYARGGGHHH!! It just bothers me, because he's usually a character that, if a picture sucks, atleast he'll somewhat look decent. But in this picture, he just looks bad all around!! Now, I like Melanies pose, but... the...my...the...my....NYAGH! My inking BUTCHERED her face!! I pooed all over her mouth (yes, that was seriously the only thing I could think of for describing how crappy I managed to make it...), like, first, the double line thing on the upper lip and then the whole fact that it's all goobered all over the place... (Had I finished this one, I probably would have found a way to fix that...) And her eyes...They sort of bother me but...then I just look at the mouth and then just get pissed off over that... And then look at Mac and then just get annoyed all over the place. I'll more then likely redraw this one, and then try again. Maybe. Or...just...stuff this one away and never look at it again. If I get really bored I might colour it. I.. I just don't know what went wrong... 0.0 Melanie purposely wanted this one to be bad, I think... You know, you two, watercolour paper isn't CHEAP DAMMIT! *they respond back with saying that I bought the paper on sale for 2 dollars a pad at Walmart....* Shut up. Ugh... Just..just a bad picture. I really doubt I'll finish this one. It even has the wonderful filename of "MacMelanieCrap.jpg" XD Mac and Melanie are Đ to Jess Ratte  |

This actually isn't a bad pic, but the only thing that bugs me about it is Mac's arms... they're WAY too long below the shoulder, and WAY to weeny after the elbow

Make it idiot proof and someone will make a better idiot.

This is gooooood and the pose is sexy
Although when I see people do this in real life, I just want to shout at them to "stick it in already!".. but that's because I'm a bitter little bugger that dislikes public displays of immense affection.. although that isn't immense affection. Hahaha... Aaah. Yeh, I'm just a jackass.. okie.
ANYWAY, this is cute so far! Mac doesn't look too awkward. His right arm is a biiiit off, but not by much... nothing that jumps out immediately to me and makes me scream in revolting terror.
Hehehe, you should continue with this one, I'd like to see a bit more done with it.
And the pose just rocks.

Eeee hee, I really really really too have a problem with Mac's arms. I don't think I mentioned it but I really do. I might finish it since the majority said it's okay, but...but.. i just I don't know 0.0I seriously didn't know what to do with Mac's arms... Maybe I should redraw it and put them in his pockets or something... 0.0

I know, I hate Mac's stupid orangatang arms. I think its the way I tried to do the pose, maybe if I put his hands in his butt pockets or something it wouldn't be so bad, but everytime I look at this picture it just gets worse and worse.. (See, when I really hate a drawing, I really hate it. It's not just a, I don't like this one very much kinda thing, its more of an explosion of dog shit 0.0)
