Description
I just put together all the people from my Toa drawings and made myself a background. It was hard because I don't normally make backgrounds and all of the people were different sizes. I tried to fit them into a picture the size of my screen, but that didn't work. So i expanded the width and just put them together. This isn't the background version, but if you want to make it your background have fun trying. Just credit me and let me know if you use it? But I know most of you won't. Or any of you won't.Pohatu/Onua: [link]

Let's talk about a couple of things:
Because you decided to nonconstructively criticize my OC, you should know these things:
1) On my other drawing that you commented on, I said she was created in like 2003, when i was like 12 and I was redrawing her. What a crazy concept, me wanting to create a character based on myself when I'm 12!
2) I never watched Digimon, so i have no idea what you're talking about, but she has later been updated to a real element. Toa Eli , Bionicle Sketchdump 2 , kanohi-hau-doesfuryevenseethes…
3) They're called "Self-MOCs" or "Self-OCs" and they are incredibly common in this fandom, as with every other fandom.
Now, I'm not usually this harsh, but because I read your journal on "criticism," which you don't really have much of a grasp on... I know you won't look at my links above either...so before you claim, "People seriously only call things they like to hear 'good criticism.'" I went through five years of design school, have 9 design awards, had three internships, 7+ years of freelance, and 1+ years at my design job...None of which I would have gotten without being critiqued. I have a much better understanding of what criticism and critique are than you.

I'm neither furious nor hurt, nor was I trying to be condescending...although, given my "saltiness" I can see where that came from.
I never once told you to search my gallery. I linked to my gallery, and told you that it was in the description of the piece you had already commented on to show you why you were wrong.
As for Nuva boobs, yeah, I'm guilty of that, but mostly because I only had Nuva sets to work with. And I'm busty myself, so why not make the likeness. I was considering making a new version anyway?
Self inserts may be subpar, but they're important to the people who make them, so their "subpar" level is irrelevant. People want to feel a part of the stories that inspired them, so whether or not their characters on level with those in canon simply doesn't matter. What if I wasn't some experienced adult who was able to understand and identify the flaws in my self-insert from long ago. I do remember vividly when I had written my fanfiction someone had come in and completely tore apart my character, as mary sue as she was.... It really really hurt, and I was crushed. This person didn't offer ways to make my character better, it was just crushing. Nowadays, unless it is good and constructive, I simply forget about it after someone mentions it, as I had done for replying to your initial comment.
