No, no, believe me, Germans are as rude on the internet as everyone else.
Well, of course, I value manner - or better: politeness - I think it's important to not be rude without a really good reason, but you can talk to me as you wish! I would never see 'cheap English' as rude! Beside that, I think your English is very good! It's not my native language either, so I can't say how cheap my own English is. I think it's very unrefined.
(By the way, you are Japanese, aren't you? I should be as afraid as you to be too rude - I think the clichees concerning manner and etiquette are the same for Japanese people. So let's just say, that it's only a clichee and we both don't mind )

I too think of my works as being too static and flat, that they lack dynamism. But I actually found out that I 'like' this kind of somehow staged pictures. I also like lively snapshots (I don't have a good example right now, but I remember Yuu Watase having some very lively pictures among her works which seemed as if taken right out of daily school life) but I can't do them very well myself. I prefer paused, maybe a bit overacted poses. Like pin-ups, maybe. Or like a staged still scene, that is photographed. I can't describe it well...
Dynamism is always good to have in one's pictures, even if it's actually without movement, but sometimes a frozen scene can also be very nice. It fits dark, gothic-like pictures especially well, I think.

But of course I can understand how you feel, that you're not completely satisfied with your work - I am neither. If I would be completely happy I would stop developing further - and I still got a lot to improve. So I always see thousands of mistakes in my pics.

Forgive me for my late reply. It takes me long time to write in English.

Yes, I am, but please don't mind Japanese rules. We have the decency to do greetings, that's good enough (As you know, our Japanese society has a conventional complicated morals. But in the fact, we exhaust oneself by morals of our-self)

I see. Your words are very interesting. No wonder your work's atmosphere look a mysterious tales. Yours bring an aesthetic of nihilistic/decadent. I have a tendency to make a gaudy decoration.　On the whole the tendency looks going well, but sometimes I cannot stand because it's just a superficial appearance.
I found that your opinions are very instructive.Yuu Watase, Kaori Yuki... You seem to like Japanese mangas. Do you get any inspiration from them?

You said,--If I would be completely happy I would stop developing further.
I feel exactly the same way about this opinion! ^^I'm sure that we should overcome own shortage, and should progress than yesterday!!
　
By the way, now I'm making a effort to create new work like my old piece "137" [link]
So, I need your favor, would you tell me your frank opinion about this piece?
The part which you like/dislike, any criticism is welcome. it will help me to advance my ways because 137's theme is the heart of my art-world.

I understand you may be busy but if you could spare the time. Of course if you wish, I can comment on yours honestly.

I will send you a note tomorrow or friday when I have enough time to answer in detail ^_^ (I had my office-working day today and I went looking at a kitchen that I'll buy for my new flat soon and tomorrow I'll have to got to the dentist, visit my parents and go to university and...and... but I'll gladly comment on your picture! Just have some more patience. I'm happy to talk in detail about artworks to you.

Hey are on deviantart every day? And do you think I'm a geek because I speak my mind?

raspberryDA In reply to BuckehWolf17 [2010-05-29 22:50:26 +0000 UTC]

Yes, almost every day. I check my messages regularly.
And...no, I don't think so. Why does speaking one's mind have anything to do with being a geek? I fear I don't get it. ^_^

BuckehWolf17 In reply to raspberryDA [2010-05-30 00:11:09 +0000 UTC]

Well because whenever I speak my mind people call me a geek or a nerd so you don't think I'm any of those?

raspberryDA In reply to BuckehWolf17 [2010-05-30 08:15:00 +0000 UTC]

For now, I have no reason to think that. Beside that I would call me and most of my friends "nerds" (in a nice way). We like comics, computer games, horror movies and underground music, talk about directors, game design and voice actors and stuff which other people (who are - no offence - just interested in sports or charts music ) might judge as "nerdy".
And we all love the IT Crowd
