Foffa Bikes

Without wishing to sound like Mother Theresa's nephew once a month (or when time allows) I go along to an advertising college to crit student's work and offer advice for a day. I don't get paid for this but I do get a great sense of professional satisfaction. It's just a community/industry thing, which is one of the things I always liked about this place - the sense of community.

Unfortunately you are starting to sound more and more like Mother Theresa's nephew with every post.

Tell me this. Are these students asking you to crit work of the quality you would expect from a 12 year old and then hoping to sell this work on and make money from it? My guess is that they are probably coming out with some half decent work and that as they are students and still in education, they are not yet tring to make their living from it.

From what I understand his bikes are getting better yet, some on here are not willing to forgive him his earlier mistakes, I find this attitude puerile which is what I was trying to reflect in my post.

Better, yes. Good, no! Well not yet anyway. Foffa really needs to up his game as he will not be heaped with praise and orders purely for being the underdog. People are not slagging his designs off because of his past, it's cos his designs, like the low pro he posted a few days ago and the hi pro or whatever it is are not very good.
