HAHAHA, Bobo! Well played. There are some interesting things in this thread. But it is a little sad that we had to actually make a thread to get people in the spirit. This is Polycount, the best game-art community in the world. All the things mentioned in this thread is how we already roll. We've done so in the past and…
I think a Karma system would be great. Maybe whoever gets the most war karma from giving good crits and paintovers etc. gets a special title, or a community award etc. Maybe they could even get a plug or something one the dom war site, though this would be a bit of a stretch seeing as its not run by polycount.

It works between 2 friends who know eachother, or 2 good artists that highly respect eachothers works so in that sense it is kind of…
What i really would like to know is how to stay 100% motivated :poly136: Critic may be very positive, but the most important thing is the auto-critic.
