If you don't mind me saying some things to help with your anatomy:
-The wing membrane is too thin near the body, the claws don't exactly look like they fit into the phalanges, and the neck's super thick as compared to the toros(which is super thin)

I wouldn't have minded had you congratulated me beforehand. I take to constructive criticism very well as I am always looking to improve. But that fact you didn't say it's a nice piece prior to jumping in with everything wrong in the picture, it just feels a bit like like an insult.
Now I just feel shit to put it plainly. Ta.

And nowhere in any of these posts had I said anything negative about this piece.

You didn't say anything positive either? That's what I'm getting at...

My taste differs per deviation. Why this caught my attention, I don't know. But Please don't take offense to what I'm saying. I'm just trying to help you out with anatomy. I know you're proud of your works and I'm sure most people would be proud of theirs too, however there is always room for improvement. Believe it or not, I decided I wanted to give a few pointers to some who I think might need it. I started with yours. I could help you with tutorials of sorts or artists to refer you to, but if you don't want/need my help, then don't listen to me and move on.

I do appreciate your help and as I said prior to your reply I always look to improve my art and take constructive criticism on the chin, however your criticise wasn't what I'd call 'constructive'. The way you just jumped in with an immediate criticism was very abrupt and unappreciative of the effort I had put into the piece whether you approved of the anatomy or not.
That's what I'm trying to tell you. If you had congratulated me beforehand regarding the piece I wouldn't mind but the fact you criticised me straight away just makes me doubt my art. Once someone plants the seed of doubt, it eats away at you.
Maybe it's just me believing the way to help someone improve is by praising them on what is good prior to telling them what they can do better. I wouldn't mind help with anatomy had you not made me feel rubbish beforehand, intentional or not.

I'm not saying anything to praise nor "snipe" your deviation. I remain nuetral with it. I could(with permission) make a "red line" to help with your deviation. The details I didn't say about were merely because I thought they were a good attempt, but the rest could require help.

Well there's my point in YOUR mistake! You could have lifted my confidence before the criticism but never.

I did admit this was my first critique. Chill.

Don't tell me to 'chill' when i'm perfectly calm thanks! Maybe asking beforehand would have been well mannered being as I don't know even vaguely who you are?
