Hey, Robert,
So, I decided to peruse the ZWOL forums, and I came across your post. I started to read through and I simply had to comment.
Where to start... Well, first off, use punctuation. It shows you actually went to school and learned proper English. I legitimately was unsure of what you were saying most of the time. Not good for getting your point across.
Secondly, never speak to anyone who may be a potential client or partner the way you did. It is unbecoming of anyone who is trying to build a career, no matter the field.
Next, in my opinion, as well as probably the opinion of any sane individual who views your work, you have absolutely no room to talk. Your art, if it even can be called that, is heinous. It is atrocious. You have zero clue about the fundamentals of illustration. The proportions of your characters are awful, your scenery is abysmal, and the design of your character is a poor rip off of Samus Aran. And don't get me started on color...
Now, I did notice the military portrait on your deviantArt page. If you did serve, I appreciate what you did for our country. My brother is in the Army and I have the utmost respect for people who do serve. But that does not give you the right to treat other people terribly.
I know you'll probably get all pissy and try to shout me down or just disregard this e-mail entirely, but you need to realize you are not good at illustration. If anybody ever pays you for your drawings, they might as well just burn their money. Yes, I'm just one random voice on the internet, but guess what? Somebodies gotta tell you you are being a dick.
Sincerely,
Aaron Rogers
