having a 'Wardo moment'

*sigh* i hate to do this, but it really bugging me....and no one reads these things anyway, right?! *looks around* (and damnit....i have to c/p to both places cause heather said so :P )
yes..this is coming from somewhere. An AMAZING artist posted a custom today, pulled from the same inspiration as one I have previously done, and it completely puts mine to shame....I should just walk away....*pulls out the hats and cake for her pitty party*


yes, she mentioned mine....but I really can't find myself believing that she pulled any sort of inspiration from my work...mostly because we were doing work based on the same inspiration.
I fall into that 'been around forever and still don't inspire anyone' category....
see..whenever there is a "who inspires you" or a "your favorite customs" no one ever thinks of me....if they do its because they are my friend and its usually as an afterthought....no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to achieve any sort of recognition....so it makes me think that maybe Im not trying hard enough, or im doing something wrong.....or maybe I just suck that hard. I have been trying to improve. work out my details better. use a finer brush/brush strokes. smoother sculpting. take better photos.
and I usually don't say anything i just swallow it and move on...cause I don't want to be a that person....
I don't want to be whining that no one likes my crap
but ;.;....ugh I want so bad to be good.
*sigh* what's the old saying? you can't polish a turd? so I guess I should just stick to mediocre and be damn happy about it..... I mean..i could be worse...and I thought I had been improving over the years....but like I say, I suppose I am just not that memorable *laughs*

yeah, I know Emmett.... I'll stop being a vag now....reverting back to my usual Jazz state...cast the Wardo demon out *rolls eyes*

  1. Not memorable?! Riiiight. *burns her hat while eating your cake*

    Of course you're good! Spectacular, really. I've never seen anything of yours that I felt was anything less, and I, along with these other lovelies, should know since we get to look at so much of your work every day. *waves hands around*

    Don't beat yourself up...no artist is fully appreciated in their time, except by the people that cared to begin with.

    Wanna go buy shoes? :D That fixes everything!
