ahhh..I like rendering..xDDD

But I draw more than render.

I'm sorry. please don't kill me.

My parents don't ever take my computer away anymore because they see no need.

But no matter I got a new phone today and I am debating whether I should keep it.

...ok, let me rephrase: those who render exclusively and don't give a flying rat's tail about a actually putting in the effort to draw their own work. Those who use it as a crutch, basically. And also those who get ÜBER protective/possesive of their renders.

I personally find rendering to be a waste of time and a form of art theft. It is, after all, just tracing and recoloring art that isn't yours, no matter how pretty you can make it look in the end.

Of course, that is not at all directed at you specifically, Angel, because I know that you do prefer to do your own artwork. It's jut that renders in general and the way people act about them...well, it makes me want to punch things. XDX

I used to render but never overly so... I was never that great at it. I've abandoned it entirely since long ago, because as Natty said. It takes too much effort. Why render when you can draw something yourself?

^Exactly.

I used to do renders once upon a long time ago, but then again, I was just a 12-year-old caught up in the mainstream. Even back then, though, I drew at least around 10+ of my own drawings for each render, and over time as I realized that all it was was a form of tracing/art theft, I dropped the practice entirely. The only part of it I regret is that I was ever making them at all when I could have been practicing drawing instead.

Renders. Gotta love 'em. ^^

*agrees with Nat & Hunt* I tried rendering a couple of times just to see if I could and to see what all the fuss was about. ...Took too long and I suck at it so why bother. 8/

I am angry because someone from Dreamworks posted some pictures of HTTYD 2 when he/she wasn't supposed to. They were all over the internet yesterday and I accidentally saw a few. I'm disappointed because I don't like Hiccup's "new older look".

I just looked it up. I like his look but not the choice of clothes... Seems too bulky to me.

I don't like the idea of them (Dreamworks) aging the characters all together. But yes, his clothes do make him look bulky, and he shouldn't look bulky because he's Hiccup.

Yeah... in my opinion, between the show and the fact that aging younger characters (nor older, for that matter) isn't really a fan favorite, I'd say it's bad on their call.

Yeah. But on the other hand, it's the same directors from the first movie (Chris Sanders & Dean D'Blois), and I love all of Chris Sanders' movies (Lilo & Stitich, HTTYD, The Croods), he knows how to make a movie full of comedy, adventure, and heartwarming scenes, so it might have the same feel and love that the first movie had because it's the same directors. Overall we should give it a chance.

You surprise me, Fluff. I'd think you'd post in your club about these leaked images. Or at least share the photos.

And frankly, I'm a little excited about the time jump. I say give it a chance.

sore throat xP

my leg's healing...ish
