This piece deserves every single ounce of all its faves, views, and the DD. Well done!

The detail is incredible and the fact that this is pointillism makes it even more incredible.

It's boring to behold but none-the-less displays a vast amount of patience. Oh and btw, noone is doubting your technique or talents but your arrogance needs to be levelled down with your actual capabilities. That said the DD is well deserved, just chill okay? Thanks.

I'm sorry that you were so bored that you felt the need to let everyone know. I'm also sorry you only have 24 deviations (none of which is anything to crow about), only 20 people Watching you, that your deviation with the most comments only has eight to speak of, that your most Faved deviation only has six, and that over all your deviations received 49 comments total. It must be frustrating for you to know that for every 242 comments like this one that you've given me, you only receive 10 in return I feel almost sorry for you.

Maybe if you spent more time working on your art, and less time being bored, you would actually end up not being bored and might have something to show for it, too. It's a bit of a stretch of the imagination, but I'm sure if you work on stretching your imagination you might not be so bored ...

That was really a poor attempt but thanks for trying. Generally I'm not bored at all it's only your piece that bores me. Well executed or not. And speaking of lack of imagination. What's so imaginative about making a realistic rhino? None. At all. Maybe your should focus less on realism and stretch your own imagination. Also, i would advise you to work on your ego and lack of true confidence because no amount of dots will cure it trust me. And cheers for visiting my gallery and going through my numbers.

Well, R-a-z-z pa Troll, for being 'bored' you certainly keep returning to the boredom. It was no problem going through your attempt at a 'gallery' and numbers, because there was so very little of it in the first place. Plus the 'Stats' button helped so I didn't really have to waste my time and get 'bored' wading through a bunch of 'want to be' comic book covers. If you really 'want to leave' no one is going to stop you, not even your 20 Watchers ...

R-a-z-z In reply to MasterOfPointillism [2010-05-15 17:30:35 +0000 UTC]

Yet you bothered visiting my gallery so thank you. And thanks for commenting my 'Want to leave' submission. It must have made an impression on you since you mention it. Oh, and if you wish to ditch your 'waste of time' maybe you should quit making dotted rhinos spending 2 years on it. Trust me you'll be a less bored person that way.

I do not wish to discourage you more than you already are but you really should find some people who cares about you. It's worth much more than x number of hits on a community website. On the other hand you seem to like numbers so maybe you should just go about your ways.

Lastly I encourage you to visit my gallery once again and find some more flaws then return with more personal attacks. Your feeble attempts are quite amusing. And that's a good cure for boredom.

MasterOfPointillism In reply to R-a-z-z [2010-05-16 04:33:42 +0000 UTC]

I visited your attempt at a 'gallery' to see if there was something that stood out and might make you speak out in the way that you did. Instead all I found was dismal numbers and attempts a comic art. The only impression that the one submission made on me that I mentioned was the fact that you are still here despite what you wrote. If you truly want to leave then why are you still here? You don't have to wait for 'aliens' to come take you away, but if that is your truest desire there are several in Arizona that would be happy to help you out. However, they might get upset when they find out that no one wants to pay the ransom to get you back ...

I'm not wasting my time and I'm not bored, if you remember correctly you came here complaining of that, not me. Neither am I discouraged, by you or anyone else. If I was I would not be doing what I am. You complained of boredom, try going through your own 'gallery' and find your own flaws. You will never be bored again, I guarantee ...

Unlike you I don't claim to be a master of anything and never did. I don't know where you got that idea. I reacted on your misplaced arrogant tone in your dd thread. That's all. In addition to that I wrote that your piece was boring to behold. Technically well-done granted, but it completely lacks soul. It spawns no emotional response. It's a boring depiction. For that reason I find it irrelevant and deprived of the very essence of what true art is. Emotion and expression.

The UFO submission was initially meant as a joke on the well-known X-files poster. There really is nothing more to it. You're imagining things. I feel quite fine and have no desire to leave I can assure you of that. Arizona, ransom...wth are you blabbering about?

You are discouraged don't fool yourself. You make up stories as arguments and display the arrogance of a pompous ass, so I thought I'd deal you some of your own meds. Hurts don't it?

I have flaws and know them well. If I didn't there would be no challenge so what's your point?

But keep 'em coming and remember to include some funny icons when you lack words.

I feel the need to mention that The rhino is not a waste of time, This arguement your making because your "bored" is a waste of time. So next time, if your "bored" simple leave this deviation to people who know the meaning of art and go look at some comics.

Amazing piece of work...the amount of effort you put in to something like this really hits you straight away! What I'd like to know is...what happens if you go wrong in the middle of one of these images? Apart from swearing and throwing things I mean Can you just erase parts and start dotting again? Or do you have to rely purely on meticulous preparation and concentration?

MasterOfPointillism In reply to MyLadyLiesWaiting [2010-05-17 05:22:59 +0000 UTC]

Actually, something did go wrong in this one; a domestic dispute that caused baby food to land on a part of it. Can you guess where?

I use Clayboard almost exclusively for my pointillism pieces. If I where to make a mistake it allows me to scratch off the medium and start over again in the effected area. However, I've never had to do this because I take my time and do quite a bit of research before I even touch pen to board. As for the baby food incident, I merely wiped it off while it was still wet and redid the area. Let me know when you think you've found it ....
