yeah i hear ya, i think it would of been fine if i had noticed it and just painted the hands too.

i have like 3 colors of brown now, but my mistake led me to a discovery, i realized that maybe next time i'll paint the palm of a black guy's hand a lighter 'white' color, like is the case for black people. Not sure how it would look asthetically.

Hey..............my fault, and my apologies, David Jake.

I take back the criticism if I knew the outcome or response would turn out this way. Besides, it was late at night and sometimes people think weirdly before they head off to sleep.

I love the Fridge action figure as much as every Joe fan does. Also, this custom of the Fridge is your rendition of this timely displayed action figure. I respect your individual talent and work on your customs. And.... keep making them. Forget the criticism of others.

Hopefully we can both fix things over a cold 40 oz. of beer, like real guys!

You know, I know that this wasn't aimed directly at me, but I think more than a few of us may take offense to this.

If I don't think I did the best I could on a custom, I'm not going to waste anyone else's time with it. Does that mean I think I "gotta crap out a golden egg everytime". You're "LASER BLAST" right it does. Why post something in a "critiques" section if your not looking for feedback to help make your work as good as possible? If I'm not willing to put forth the effort to present a "golden egg" then what is the point?

The point of art sure as hell isn't to "just get it out there", and to say as much pisses on all of the truly great art work done by some great customizers on this board, that took thought and effort to make it look as good as possible.

I'm sure my opinion won't matter to you, since you seem to base customizing ability on gallery submission numbers.

actually the point of art is to get it out there, my dad's a famour artist, what you think the point is never showing anyone your work and think your gonna come out with some perfect whatever, well sorry to break it to you there is no such thing. Nothing's ever gonna be perfect, and your right your opinion doesn't really matter to me, no offense, i dont even know you, why would it? I do this art and any successful artist does their art for themselves and if others can appreciate it then that's icing on the cake. Again just get it out there. Who cares, 'waste ppl's time', pfff come on dude, they click a thing, they look, they like, they don't they don't.

Then honestly, why bother posting your "LASER BLAST" in a "critiques" section if you don't care what anyone thinks?

If want to dip a toy in a bottle of white-out and call it "art", go right ahead.
But don't expect people who put much more thought and effort in to their work to not get offended when you try to compare it to their stuff.

and no my comment was not directed at you or other ppl, it's not like i'm going over the members list to see who has and who hasn't made submissions, i was referencing that "LASER BLAST" chief, and that tard Tex, who made a snide comment about me putting up a lot of submissions, when the guy's submitted 5 customs, and in tex's case none, and i'm assuming the tard's been in here awhile seeing as though he's on the gallery staff, atlest i would hope; and i guess in his mind figures i should be as neurotic as him about showing my work, and if he doesn't like my stuff f him i could care less and if he doesn't think i put a lot of work into this hobby, well again f him and anyone else who thinks either, i could care less, i don't like most of the 25th and marvel stuff, but so what, that's what they like, whatever, altough i would say this is a joe site not a marvel superman site, this is a soldier's world, better strap on a gun to that superhero otherwise they wouldn't work in any joeverse i know of.
