Vlad I'm with you, I think it would be a loss to the thread if Marc stopped posting.
However, I simply don't always have the time to make a real study and suggest solutions for where people are going wrong. I do from time to time make more in depth comments but again it's all time permitting.
Also agreeing with Vlad that if people -want- C&C's they should specifically ask for them. I know that Mac has done this on a couple of pieces where there was a character "placement" or "order" issue he was looking to resolve.
I note however that some people are not shy about asking direct question: What sort of tool did you use to do that? What settings do you have for this? and everyone seems amiable enough to answer those.
For me I like the thread as it is. To suddenly be compelled to do C&C's on every post I think I'd simply stop posting and lurk.
Marc isn't of course saying -in every case- I think rather he's frustrated, as some others may be that "Nice work", "Great sketches" just aren't providing the information they are looking for. But then, those people (myself) posting those comments aren't mind readers and have no idea what these artists are wanting to hear. Which backs up the "Badge up your questions in the post with the artwork" Like:
Here's a piece I did today. I feel I was succesful at doing [a] but feel I was let down by how do the artists here combat ?
Then we'd all have the clue required to answer the post accordingly, with a little "Great work" added in for ego massaging that we all like so much...well me-LOL
