Dankes , and I just put that on all my work. In my eyes the only person who is allowed to critique is the commissioner and if I ask for it (I only personally ask certain people that I look up to and trust their judgement). But I have had a lot of incidences where some random makes a comment then the commissioner gets upset, or the critique is poorly worded. In art college I was taught there is a right way and a wrong way, and sadly a lot of critiques are done in the wrong way and are based in personal preference.  So I like to deter it and keep comments open instead of disabling them again.

Okay, I understand that. Its not easy for an unlearned person to critique the right way.
So your Art is amazing really great work at all
Keep it up <3

Oh its not about being unlearned, its just that a lot of people are unaware of steps to take to give a well thought out critique and think just putting down their opinion is a good enough critique. Like 90% of the time a person will just say, "it looks weird, I dont like that" or "you messed up that hand it looks funny to me" and nothing more. These are just examples of what I see and these type of comments (guised as critique) can be detrimental to artist and to a commissioner who spent money to support an artist. No positives about the piece, no help given on how to correct it, no suggestions on how to differently tackle that issue in the future to make your pieces more successful or anatomically correct. The DA critique tab (for premium members) gives a good layout on how to properly form one but I do not have that. emptyeasel.com/2007/06/18/how-…  is a great link in simple terms on how to form critique for an artist. Sorry for being wordy XD but its something I have strong feelings on  

But thank you so much I do appreciate it, with each piece I do I try to get better and better, pushing myself more and more.

Okay i really understand that! Thats not helpful or anything which make your skills better.
I dont see those comments as critique, because its just opinions from persons, like you said.
Its sad that artist must say they dont want such comments.. so my apologizes if i get on your nervs or something like that..
I really like your style, keep it up! May I ask how long it takes you for such a full render?

Oh you are fine! I just had a few bad experiences, not everyone is the same thank you again I will keep trying to improve.

For something like this I spend anywhere from 25-40 hours. It really does depend on different factors like how detailed armor is, are they using low res sets (this increases time) and what not. I mostly spend more time on these since the majority of my full renders are package deals. So I also spend time creating desktop backgrounds and rendering out the background completely and at the end the commissioner receives around 7-10 images including a .png they can use for their own use if they see fit of their character.
