The Climb!



Been lurking on the dagger forums for awhile and tuning into some streams here and there. Before coming here i was on conceptart.org about four years ago. Art has been an on and off thing for me. I sometimes daydream about if i really applied myself on CA.org that long ago i'd probably be in a better position right now in terms of technique. To sum it up i basically i haven't touched art for almost a year and a half now. 

Decided to put an end to stagnation and really apply myself for the next Year starting now. So here's my deathline

Art
-Study until my hands are bleeding. 

-Tackle areas i avoided out of frustration

-Do awesome work

-Finally apply myself to digital bought an Intuos a few years back but i barely touched it because the transition from traditional to digital was harder then i thought it'd be.


-Build a portfolio


Below is stuff i'm copy pasting from my Conceptart.org sketchbook but it works well for a Deathline post. Encase anyone is wondering what it is i'm a gamer and this is an achievement list/trophy list you might find in a game.
