Crimson Daggers — Art forum

Hello guys! My name is Isabella, but you can call me Bella, it sounds better haha. 

Well, I'm a video game development student from Brazil and I want to be an illustrator (oh, and I also want to work at CD Projekt Red one day hahaha), I always enjoyed drawing, since I was a little child, but I've never had any kind of art lessons (only at college, but it wasn't really good), so I don't have a consistent knowledge of anatomy, proportion, perspective, composition... well, the basics of design... Anyway, I actually started studying all of it about 6 months ago, and I believe I'm improving, but I'm still a little confused, so I hope some of you guys can help me to get things clearer haha.

Thank you, guys! I hope I'll make some friends in here, since I don't know many artists 

See ya :)

Make a sketchbook! Update often! Welcome to the Crimson Daggers!

Hi Bella!

You seem to struggle with the same things most people do,
so create a sketchbook and join us moving forward, welcome to the Crimson Daggers:)

Welcome to Crimson Daggers Dreschler :)

In addition to the great advice you've already received, I'd also reccomend Dorian Iten's Accuracy Guide, very useful in my experience.

Good luck!

Thank you guys! I just created a Sketchbook, hope I'll see you there!
