I’m actually ambivalent about this advice, @anritco. Because on one hand you can get a good advice, on the other hand (probably because I’m in the art school right now), people tend to not understand what the finished work you are aiming for is, and give their opinion based on that. Too many times somebody would ask why am I still working on this piece of shit, to change their mind later when the work is finished. Or they’d say it’s already perfect the way it is (because they are into sketchy drawings). There is a Limit to the advice others can give you. Usually it’s their own ideas of how things should look like.

Well, let's start saying that if someone calls your piece "a piece of shit" that person should be ignored. It is important as well to apply filters to what other people say about your work.
I am not talking about negative comments, I am talking about "this feels something is wrong here, maybe it could go better if you do this and that". But definitively if someone comes and says "hey this piece of crap of yours is a loss of time" then clearly that person is just trying to play funny by judging you and being a total jerk.
Once again, you gotta filter these critiques and use them in your advantage, if you listen to everything that everybody say and not even translating the message, then you are in trouble.
Well :) that’s exactly what I do, otherwise I wouldn’t keep on working on my dear pieces of shit ;) until they turn into something great.
Hahaha no worries, I consider my shit also a big chunky piece of shit... so at least we can agree on something ;)
